Did you know that in May of 1961, Jimi Hendrix became Private James Hendrix. It all started when Law enforcement authorities twice caught Hendrix riding in stolen cars and when given a choice between spending time in prison or joining the Army, he chose the latter and enlisted.

After completing his basic training at Fort Ord, California, the Army assigned him to the 101st Airborne Division and stationed him at Fort Campbell, Kentucky.

In November 1961, fellow serviceman Billy Cox walked past the service club and heard Hendrix playing guitar inside. Cox, intrigued by the proficient playing, which he described as a combination of "John Lee Ho**er and Beethoven", immediately checked-out a bass guitar and the two began to jam. Soon after, they began performing at the base clubs on the weekends with other musicians in a loosely organized band called the Casuals.

Sony Music will release “Luck and Strange,” a new studio album from David Gilmour, on Sept. 6.

Recorded over five months in Brighton and London, it’ll be Gilmour’s first album of new materials since 2015’s “Rattle That Lock.”

Produced by Gilmour and Charlie Andrew (alt-J, Marika Hackman), the album contains eight new tracks, including a version of “Between Two Points” featuring Romany Gilmour, who is the daughter of Gilmour and Polly Samson. The original recording was released in 1999 by indie pop duo The Montgolfier Brothers on their “Seventeen Stars” album.

Musicians contributing to “Luck and Strange” include Guy Pratt and Tom Herbert on bass; Adam Betts, Steve Gadd, and Steve DiStanislao on drums; Rob Gentry and Roger Eno on keyboards; with string and choral arrangements by Will Gardner. Most of the album’s lyrics are by Samson.

The title track also features late Pink Floyd keyboardist Richard Wright, recorded in 2007 at a jam that took place in a barn at Gilmour’s home.

Some recordings were taken from live streams Gilmour and his family performed during the lockdowns of 2020 and ’21.

“Polly and I have been writing together for over 30 years,” Gilmour says, “and the Von Trapped live streams showed the great blend of Romany’s voice and harp-playing and that led us into a feeling of discarding some of the past that I’d felt bound to and that I could throw those rules out and do whatever I felt like doing, and that has been such a joy.”

The album’s cover image, photographed and designed by Anton Corbijn, is inspired by a lyric written by Gilmour’s son, Charlie Gilmour, for the album’s final track, “Scattered.”
