After a blistering performance of Voodoo Chile, on the Happening for Lulu show in January 1969, The Jimi Hendrix Experience stop midway through a half-hearted attempt at their first hit Hey Joe. The trio break into Cream's Sunshine of Your Love, in tribute to the recently disbanded group, until producers bring the song to a premature end.

According to the memoir of bassist Noel Redding, Lulu had been due to join Hendrix on stage to sing the final lines of Hey Joe, but the band wasn't too keen on the idea. The stunt (according to rock and roll legend) earned The Jimi Hendrix Experience a ban from performing on BBC television. Hendrix died the following year on 18th September 1970.

In #1969, at the #Siberian #village of #Rzhavchik in the Soviet Union, a remarkable event unfolded. Deep beneath the surface, a miner named Ivan Karnaukhov discovered an 800 million-year-old #sarcophagus with a #woman inside.

The beauty lying in the sarcophagus soon became known as the Tisul Princess, with Tisul being the name of the district where the Rzhavchik village was located. Eventually, the high-ranking Soviet officials from the district arrived. Accompanying them were KGB agents.

Just six months after the KGB confiscated the sarcophagus, a wave of misfortune swept over the village of Rzhavchik. Tragedy struck relentlessly, beginning with Ivan Karnaukhov, the man who discovered the sarcophagus of the Tissul Princess. His life was cut short in a harrowing accident.

A month after his death, a miner met his demise by drowning. The sole survivor of these ominous events was geologist Vladimir Podreshetnikov, who revealed that the discovery of the Tisul princess was not the only one of its kind. Valery Malevanny, a retired KGB agent, stated that in #1973, additional sarcophagi were uncovered. These #sarcophagi were transported to #Moscow and were estimated to be around 200 million-year-old.
