Jimi Hendrix allegedly joined Marilyn Monroe with posthumous sex tape releases this month. But, is all the hype surrounding the Hendrix sex tape focused on a genuine article? Two infamous ladies, who are not in the tape, claim to have first hand (pun intended) knowledge of Jimi's anatomy to verify that the genuine article is indeed what is shown in the grainy footage of a threesome.

But, of course, there's always two sides to a story. Unfortunately, Jimi's not around to verify things so the world is left to rely on others who've been up close and personal with the guitar hero. Hendrix biographer Charles Cross reportedly has seen some of the tape and says one thing he noticed is that none of the rings seen there look like any he'd seen Jimi wearing in various photos he's studied over the years. Beyond that, someone a little more closer to Hendrix, Kathy Etchingham - a girlfriend of Jimi's in the 1960s - says its not him in the film citing differences in the nose and hairline. And, she may be familiar with a few more characteristics that she didn't comment on.

Needless to say the folks behind the film are pushing hard to say it is Jimi Hendrix frolicking with the two girls on the sex tape. I guess we may never know for sure.
