What if Bobby Keys and Jim Horn did a tour as part of the Experience along with Jimi Hendrix, Noel Redding, Mitch Mitchell. Sounds Rad!
or...

What if Jimi Hendrix got together with Steve Winwood and called the band "Crosstown Traffic."

In the movie "Stoned" it portrayed Brian Jones truly living the life of "Sex, Drugs, and Rock n Roll" only to leave Rock and Roll behind in the sole pursuit of the other two. Just like all dramatisation they bend the facts for dramatic effect. It's like the old chicken and the egg argument: Did Brian spiral out-of-control because he was removed or was he removed because he was spiralling out-of-control?
