Uschi Obermaier

When Uschi Obermaier was still living in West Berlin, this international model caught the eye of rock legend Jimi Hendrix. They fell in love in no time. One might say it was only natural because her left-wing commune life made it easy to adjust to the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle. You will even find a cameo of the two sharing a kiss in front of a hotel in Last Experience. She has never been the type of person to keep her personal life on the down-low. As a matter of fact, she was public about her private life. Some has attributed this to the sexual revolution unfolding at the time. Rumors say she got it on with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards back in their 1975 tour.

This photo of Elvis and an unknown groupie circulated heavily back in the day. It was only nearly six decades later that everyone finally learned just who she is. She is none other than Barbara Gray. She has long left her days of being a groupie and settled down with a real estate manager. This classic photo was taken after she went to an Elvis concert in Richmond. Apparently, she was dared to call him at his hotel, but it ended up working well because they had an hour-long conversation that ended with an invitation to attend his concert. What a legend!
