Lemmy of Motorhead was a massive Beatles fan. Before Motorhead he was in Hawkwind, and prior to that in The Rockin Vicars. Listen to Dandy by the Rockin Vicars. It is so Beatles inspired.
He also got me and my butty Murdock backstage at Reading 1982
once he heard our Welsh accents. Do the Ayatollah

Didn't Mike Batt, he of Wombles fame, play some of the bass parts for the Sex Pistols because Sid Viscous couldn't play a note. Or did I dream this fact.

Mitch Mitchell, the drummer with the Jimi Hedrix Experience, did an ad for Jubbly (as in the original 'Lovely Jubbly') as a youngster in the early 60s. When he became famous with Hendrix Jubbly re-ran the ad for a while.

Am sure in his biography, Steve Jones claimed he played most all the bass parts for Sid.

Jimi Hendrix was left-handed and at the time he started to play the guitar, he didn't have a left handed one, so he strung his guitar upside down. Even when he became famous he kept playing on his reverted guitar.

Albert King was also left-handed, but played right handed guitars flipped over upside down.
