By Jill Reilly PUBLISHED: 10:05 EST, 10 May 2013 | UPDATED: 19:31 EST, 10 May 2013 Jimi Hendrix wanted Sir Paul  McCartney to form a supergroup with him – and be its bass player. He sent a telegram inviting the Beatle to join forces with him, jazz trumpeter Miles Davis and drummer Tony Williams in 1969, as the Fab Four were breaking up. It read: ‘We are recording and (sic) LP together this weekend. How about coming in to play bass?’ It was sent to McCartney at The Beatles’ Apple Records HQ in London on October 21, 1969, and told him to get in touch with producer Alan Douglas.
