WOW Jimi Hendrix Special

Blew me away!

Just saw on Show Time, a Hendrix special, 2 months before he died. It was a "festival" in south Atlanta, Byron. The last of the great festivals...hippies everywhere, naked, pot smoking 1970.

I did not realize that he could make a guitar talk so much!! It was his soul coming outta the thing. After watching/hearing, and I do have the "greatest" Jimi CD, I didn't know how good he was. Watching him play, and humble, made me realize my lack of appreciation to the man. He didn't do many interviews....not the day where 'snapchat", Facebook etc existed.

Have looked a bit at his history. He was in Vietnam, not sure what branch. He was left handed and that his hands were so big that he could do things with the guitar that no one else could. While watching, dude looked like he was playing a kids toy!!

I don't know how much he was paid for that festival? But watching him, he was all about the crowd...fed off them..amazing. I was moved.

In the end, was it better that he died so young or be a Paul McCartney?

Is there anyone else that can/could play better with his soul?

No reason to post this, after watching the special, was wondering 'bout other peoples thoughts about Jimi that I over looked for all these years.

Holy crap, you're Joe Cocker? I thought you were dead.

Hendrix was the best. i read an article with jack Bruce. he was telling of hendrix first meeting he and clapton, at some bar hendrix was jamming out, clapton was out in the hallway trying to light a ciggarette but was trembling to much to do it, they became good friends
I must of sounded like a reerun, prolly am, but that festival doc blew me away. Wanted CP thoughts and of course got plenty of them. I wasn't surprised some of the dorks came out as well. That adds to the entertainment factor of the planet.

Best sounding Hendrix was on vinyl...

These 24 bit vinyl rips are as good as it gets for digital :
