It was the idea of Peter Bursch, the guitar teacher of the nation and bandleader of the Krautrock legend Bröselmaschine, 20 years after the death of Jimi Hendrix to put together an illustrious crowd of hip musicians and to organize a Rockpalast tribute concert in 1991. Rockpalast mastermind Peter Rüchel and director Christian Wagner were quick to get enthusiastic about this idea. Through his personal contacts Peter was able to find some really competent musicians who were willing to deal with this idea. So an All Star Band was formed from very different exceptional musicians like Uli Jon Roth Scorpions, who also took over the musical direction of this project, Jack Bruce Cream, West, Bruce and Laing, John Wetton King Crimson, Roxy Music, Uriah Heep, UK, Asia etc., Simon Phillips The Who, Toto, Asia etc., the Randy Hansen Band and many others.
