"Despite its sexual overtones, the song had an innocuous origin, stemming from a cold December night in England when the band didn't have a gig, Noel Redding, bass player for The Jimi Hendrix Experience came up with the idea to have Jimi as a guest at his mother's house. Upon arriving, Jimi asked her if he could stand next to her fireplace, she agreed, but her Great Dane was in the way, hence the line, "Aw, move over, Rover, and let Jimi take over..." ("Electric Gypsy")."
Aw..come on! Who thought up this piece of tripe? Even Curtis Knight wouldn't have come up with a yarn like this. 160.84.253.241 07:51, 8 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
