Rock legend Jimi Hendrix was murdered by his manager as part of an insurance scam, a new book by one of his former aides claims.<\/p>\n

Hendrix choked to death on his own vomit when he was 27 \u2013 but the exact circumstances of his death have always been a mystery.<\/p>\n

Now James \u2018Tappy\u2019 Wright, one of the rock star\u2019s roadies, claims that Hendrix\u2019s manager, Michael Jeffery, confessed to killing him. Jeffery is said to have made a drunken confession a year after the star\u2019s death in September 1970.<\/p>\n

An ambulance crew found Hendrix\u2019s body in the Samarkand Hotel in West London, in the room of Monika Dannemann, a girl he had known for just a few days.<\/p>\n

Wright claims Jeffery was worried that Hendrix was preparing to find a new manager when their deal was due to end in December 1970. According to Wright, Jeffery said he went to the hotel room and stuffed Hendrix full of pills and wine.<\/p>\n
