'Hendrix sex tape' set for release

An adult entertainment company is releasing a sex tape allegedly starring Jimi Hendrix.

Los Angeles-based 'Vivid Entertainment' said today it obtained the footage of the music legend shot in a hotel room about 40 years ago from a memorabilia collector.

The footage features Hendrix engaging in various sexual acts with two women, according to a statement released by Vivid.

The company has said they consulted with several experts to authenticate the footage.

Hendrix died of a drug overdose in 1970.

Seattle-based representatives for Hendrix’s estate did not want to comment about the tape.

Vivid Entertainment was also responsible for the release of celebrity sex tapes, including one starring Pamela Anderson.
