Thank you.

Hey, man,

really big, big fans of you guys, man.

- Thank you.

- Hey, really big fan.

You can plug in over there.

Oh, no, no. Here's fine.

I was just thinking, we could just jam a

little bit, if that's good.

Or do you know Killin' Floor?

Mannish Boy?

- You know Mannish Boy?

- I don't much know those.

Come on. You're a blues man. You've gotta

know these songs. I'll teach you.

We've a guest who's gonna sit in with us...

who brought himself

all the way over from America.

What's the name again, mate?

Jimi Hendrix.

Mr. Jimi Hendrix.

Whoo!

Eric.

Is he really that f***ing good?

I don't need any.

Give me some.

Now, ladies and gentlemen,

your favorite, my favorite...

the King of the Cockneys, Tommy Pudding!

Nice big hand, ladies and gentlemen.

Oh, slap a bit of treacle

on your pudding, Mary Ann

Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann

Oh, smother it, cover it

Over Bridge of Sighs

I To rest my eyes

in shades of green I

Under dreaming spires

To Itchycoo Park,

that's where I've been

4' What did you do there?'

- I go! high

- What did you fee/ there?

Hey, Kathy. Hey, babe.

Hmm.

Wh-What do you think?

Excuse me. it's stopped.

What's that?

It was working a moment ago

and now it's stopped.

Broken. Cheap little thing.

- Can you fix it?

- Yeah.

Wouldn't be worth the money

you'd spend to make it right.

Be nice and have fun

in the sun

I'll tell you

what I'll do

What will you do?

J' I'd like to go there now

Don't you think it's groovy?

- You look handsome.

- Thank you. Should I get it?

- Yeah.

- Hey, how much does this run?

He's aggressive, I'll say that.

- In a good way or a bad way?

- He just-

Did you see how

he was giving Jimi the eye the whole time?

He just is. He's aggressive.

- What did you make of Aynsley?

- Well, he's solid.

- Well, I liked him too.

- I didn't say I liked him.

He's solid,

but he follows a bit much.

Look, Chas,

I'm thankful for the gig...

but I'm still learning my way

around the bass.

Might be good to have someone who's

a bit more up-front.

Might be good to find someone who shows

a bit of bloody respect.

Oh, 'cause it's your band now, eh?

It's called the Jimi Hendrix Experience...

not The Two Pillocks

and a Bloke From America Experience.

As long as we all know our place.

I don't wanna have a big

freak-out about it.

He's fierce, yeah.

You can't knock a cat for being fierce.

It's like Elvin Jones

or something like that.

Yeah, he's more jazz orientated.

Yeah, so it won't be that

same, you know, kind

of rock thing everybody

else is trying to do.

Exactly.

What were you saying about getting a bit

more experience in the Experience?

Mmm, he's right.

I can say what I bloody well want,

you know.

Okay. Look.

Aynsley.

Mitch.

Yeah, a bit of Little Richard.

- Yeah, it's kinda cute.

- Thanks.

Why do you call yourselves The Breakaways?

This is the ultimate...

Jimi Hendrix Experience singing experience.

I think we should all sing in it.

Kind of choral. Choral singing.

We should have-Hey, Breakaways.

We should have The Breakaways

sing, like, the lead and then-

- Not too very high.

- Yeah.

How high can we sing, Jimi?

En-joy.

Forty, 45, 50, okay.

So all-in-all that's 500.

So it's-That's three hours, aye?

Two hours, Chas.

- Oh, come on, you're breaking me heart.

- I'm doing you a favor.

- Got the best equipment here. Best studio-

- I can see that.

Look-Three hours.

- I'm gonna be counting it, Chas,

'cause I know you. - You do know me.

So you don't need to count it. That's 500.

- He's not even tuned up yet.

- I can see that!

- You've not got anyone booked-

- Two hours.

If you're finished within two hours-

Rolling.

Can we turn the lights down a little bit?

Can we?

To create just a little mood, you know.

What's my voice sound like

in there, on the microphone?

- We've gotta lay the track, Jimi, so-

- All right, all right.

Lights or not, however you need

to get over yourself and sing...

while I've still got

the bus fare to get home, that'd be grand.

All right, man, sorry.

- Okay, h-here we go.

- No. Do you wanna tum the lights down?

Yeah, please. Yeah, I think it would help.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

Rolling.

What are the bloody lights doing off?

Jesus Christ Almighty! We're recording!

Who records in the f***ing dark?

I didn't know.

Oh, that's grand to know!

So, you're not completely stupid!

You're just plain ignorant!

Now, would you bugger

off out so we can stop

wasting money and get

something done...

you clingy f***ing b*tch!

S-Sorry.

All right.

Okay, here we go.

This time no laughing, man.

Yeah, that was a nice one.

- Nice job. That was great, ladies.

- See you all later.

I like what you did. That was out of sight.

It was nice.

Hey! HEY-

You let him talk to me like that? Clingy

b*tch? You don't say a word?

- W-What are you talking-

- I'm your bloody girlfriend.

- What was I supposed to do?

- You're supposed to stick up for me.

Well, f*** you!

You ruined my take, woman. What are you-

F*** you! F*** you!

You f***ing-

You wanna hit me?

- For f***'s sake, get off her, man.

- Get off her. Come on.

It's all right. it's done, man. it's done.

Bastard! Where were you?

See? Sh-She's just crazy.

- Where f***ing were you?

- She's crazy.

No, let her play.

F*** you.

F***ing crazy.

F*** is wrong with you?

People see the, uh-

the energy that you perform with on stage.

E-Energy.

Is that what you call it? Energy?

But it looks exhausting.

- Are you having fun?

- Well, yeah, yeah.

It's work just like anything else...

you know,

getting on stage every night-it is.

I! takes a lo! out of your energy-

Is that' what' you call it?

But, I mean, if you-if you don't put your

all into it, you know...

if you don't put

your whole entire self into it, why do it?

You know?

You have your new album

coming out, your first album-

Yeah. Yeah, everybody go buy it too.

There's so much competition right now.

Cream, The Who-

No, no, no. No, no.

I wouldn't say competition, you know.

But the Beatles have a new record due.

It's meant to be amazing.

Uh, do you feel worried at all?

That's right.

French fries, right? French fries and eggs?

- Yeah, chips.

- Why do you all drink so much tea?

What's up with the tea thing, man?

Tea. it's what we drink.

It's because we were invading India.

That's why you all stay up all the time.

You never go to f***ing sleep.

There isn't-Tea doesn't

make you stay awake.

Yes, it does.

- Alcohol makes you stay awake.

- No, alcohol makes you go to sleep.

- It makes me go to sleep.

- Doesn't take much for you to go to sleep.

I have to drink alcohol

when I take your cooking.

Hey, horse.

- What are you about?

- What are we about? What do you mean?

Nothing.

Everything-

Something.

- Cheeky bastard.

- Is he giving you trouble?

No, he's not giving me trouble,

as you can see.

- Cheers, mate.

- All right, thanks, mate.

- You together?

- Is that any of your business?
