This video popped up in my YouTube feed. It isn't new and I've heard it a million times (own the album on vinyl).

I'm still in awe over this show. Enjoy.

Living vicariously eh?

As long as you're wishing you should wish you'd seen them. ;)

Yes, vicariously, as that is as close as I'll get, through someone else. I'll also enjoy first-hand accounts. Just so you know, I have indeed wished that I had been old enough to see them.

It was a very special time period before the arena shows. Hendrix in a small club? Damn. Of course, the 27 Club members never got to the big stages anyway.

Billy Cox nails it here. Nothing against Redding, he's earned the respect he gets. But Billy is the man, all the way.

I remember as a kid, following Hendrix like Zappa and I would always buy the new releases. I remember pre-ordering this album from my Hippie record store, getting home, putting this on and thinking Hendrix gone funky! It was amazeballs!

I remember playing Machine Gun on a rainy day recess day, where you had to stay in at recess cause of the rain but you could check out a record player for your classroom. I got to play the first two songs as I checked it out. Machine Gun and Brown Shoes Don't Make It from the Mothermania compilation MOI album.

Good times

:)

I think both guys were equally important: Redding provided solid and simple support in the beginning to help Hendrix forged his unique style and get his 10,000 hours; Cox took the relay to continue supporting the evolution of this soft spoken and wonderful musical genius.

Yup… but you mean Mr. JIMI

Kind of off topic, but still related I hope.

Way back when, I remember watching a live vid of Jimi doing Dylans, Just Like a Woman, a very little wing'ish feel to it. I've searched and searched and never have been able to find it. Anyone else have a memory of this rendition?
