Eric Clapton was in the first phases of his heroin addiction in the early 70s. Despite his smooth and articulate delivery, close-ups during his interview show his eyes are heavily dilated and constantly darting back-and-forth.
At the time of the film's production, Noel Redding was in the middle of a lawsuit against the Hendrix estate over what he felt were unpaid royalties, which is why he chose not to participate and only appears in archival concert footage.
"Self - Interviewee: [Eric Clapton] Our manager, The Cream's manager, felt that if we went over to San Francisco too early we'd lose our market value. So, he held off and said, no-no, you must go later on and then be a Big Bang, you know, at the Fillmore. And it worked out all right in the end; but, I was really upset about it; because, we'd been asked to go and I wanted to go. I felt that they must have thought we were being big headed. But, I'd loved to have seen him play there. He did that sacrifice thing for the audience with his guitar. I've seen it so many times on film."
"Self - Interviewee: [Pete Townshend] I said to Jimi, I said, "Fuck it, man, we're not going to follow you on." So he said, "Well, I'm not going to follow you on." So, I said, "Listen, we are not going to follow you on and that is it. You know. As far as I'm concerned, you know, we were ready to go on now, our gears going to be there, its the end of it, you know." And, there was a certain look in his eye and he got on a chair and he played some amazing guitar, just standing on a chair in the dressing room. Janis Joplin was there. Brian Jones. Eric. And me and a few other people just standing around. And then he got down off the chair and just said, turned around to me, and said, "If I'm going to follow you, I'm going to pull all the stops.""
