Monika Dannemann - After Hendrix

After Hendrix

After Hendrix's death, Dannemann became romantically involved with German rock guitarist Uli Jon Roth, of the Scorpions, with whom she collaborated on several songs (notably "We'll Burn the Sky") and album cover designs and artwork. Roth also wrote the foreword to Dannemann's 1995 book about her experience living and working with Hendrix, entitled The Inner World of Jimi Hendrix. The front cover featured a photo of Hendrix taken by Dannemann a day before his death.

After his death Dannemann held onto Hendrix's famous black Stratocaster (nicknamed Black Beauty by Hendrix). It was kept in its case until 1993, when it was examined by Len Jones. The guitar was last seen in public at a guitar event on 3 December 1995 in London.
