Hendrix returned to the Record Plant (321 West 44th Street, New York City) for a studio session that resulted in three takes of "I'm A Man," (AKA "Stepping Stone") and one take of "Cherokee Mist" being put to tape.

The February 7 edition of Rolling Stone took a candid look at the year that was... 1969. And in top marks to Jimi Hendrix, RS said, "Jimi Hendrix had a big year, a pretty neat trick for a musician who made no music. He was busted for dope and got off, his Experience broke up with Hendrix starting a "serious" new experimental group, he quite gigging except for a few festivals, and there were no new records. To Jimi Hendrix, the No News Is Big News Award."
