Not in their current state fortunately. But anyway, it looks like Vivid is promoting a Jimi Hendrix sex tape. Story here, sex tape site here.

“Jimi Hendrix: The Sex Tape” will premiere today online at www.hendrixsextape.com, with a DVD edition scheduled to hit stores across the country on May 6. Shot in a hotel room circa 1968, the film shows Hendrix in “an erotic liaison with two slender brunettes.”

“This new movie shows that Jimi Hendrix could have been as great a porn star as he was a rock star. He could clearly play more than just his guitar,” said Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch. “It’s easy to see that he turned women on with his music and his passion.”

Rumors of the explicit Hendrix film began to circulate in October 2007, when Vivid registered several Internet domain names for the project. According to a company press release, Vivid acquired the rare 8mm home movie footage of the late rock guitarist from “a collector of rock ‘n roll memorabilia.”

Vivid consulted with several experts to authenticate the footage, including author Pamela Des Barres, known for her groupie memoir “I’m with the Band,” and the notorious Cynthia Plaster Caster. Both women contributed commentary to Vivid’s DVD, which is billed as “a sexual documentary that gives insight on the uninhibited rock ‘n’ roll scene of the Sixties.”

Des Barres says in her commentary: “Hendrix liked to be filmed having sex. He’s the ultimate adult film movie star. I understand why everyone wanted to sleep with the guy. He played like an all-encompassing rock orgasm. He reeked of sex. You wanted to strip to keep up with him when he played ‘Foxy Lady.’ [...] The footage proves that Hendrix was fabulous in bed and really wanted to please his partner.”

Psh, like you can go off of footage to judge sexual prowess. What with all that CGI in the 60s. It’s also pretty perturbing that this Des Barres chick is like the age of my grandmother and she’s still talking about getting deep-dicked. Well, my grandmother is like slightly older, so she was probably getting deep-dicked by Muddy Waters, but still. Not fun.

Anyway I can’t tell if it’s Jimi Hendrix or not, and not for my usual reason of being unable to tell one black guy from another. There’s like a fro and a black penis and they’re both probably wearing colorful headbands or whatever. I don’t even really know what Jimi Hendrix looks like…this could probably be Andre 3000 from Outkast and I’d be like, “Yeah this is probably legit.” But yeah, if you’re interested in seeing a guy who’s been dead like forty years have sex, well, welcome to flavor country my friend.
