    He was pissed with everything. I just left a comment about what was going on behind the scenes. He's suffering heavily - what a solo - the massive intensity of it shows he was not in a good space, but his playing kept him going.
    He loved Mitch Mitchell as a drummer! And if you listen closely, Mitchell plays along to some of Hendrix' solo, doing phenomenal fills and rolls!!! He's one of the all time greatest drummers in rock history!!!!

    Neil Young said, when asked who the top guitar players were, "There's Hendrix. And there's everybody else. There wasn't anyone even close to that guy." Man, i cannot even imagine what it would've been like to see this cat. He's a one time only artist. I mean, it must have been like an out of body experience to see shit like this. He absolutely had a god like aura about him, even beyond his playing. It's as if the guitar was a part of him or something. The world will never see anything like that again.

    Jimi opened with Spanish Castle Magic the three times we saw him. He was great all three times. The last time he said, "we'll come back when we're more better rested up". He never returned and I'm still sad but glad he graced us with his presence.

    There is a moment here that is magical to me. For most of the song Jimi had been kinda uninterested and absent, the beginning especially. He went into the solo and tried to get into it, played brilliantly for mortal standards, but for Jimi it looked and sounded like he just wasn't feeling it. Then at 3:15 he takes two steps forward and the stars align. He's calm, collected, inspired and brutal. Pure magic.

      You have to be in the "state of mind" to see what you saw the way you did. And your totally right. This show has always been kinda "off" for him, from my perspective. He seems sarcastic with his comments and just not in the mood, but what makes him my favorite is that he can express that pure frustration by transmuting it into pure gold through the "public saxiphone." A true musical alchemist. He's tuned down I believe a whole step which gives these songs a real downtrodden bluesy vibe that when your in the mood for it nothing is better. This might be my favorite concert of his. I'm still just blown away by this guy. I mean I really enjoy a lot of other guitarists, but Jimi was really an alien.

      Rainbow Bridge Too add a little context - they normally start around that point, but sometimes Jimi extends it on a whim. Same thing happens in Fire - though this time Mitch now knows to wait for Jimi’s signal to move on. In fact, Noel ‘jumps the gun’ on Fire for the same reason. I think what I like about it though is that it doesn’t exactly sound like a mistake. In fact - if you watch the whole show there a moment or two where Mitch loses his sticks in the middle of playing and has to quickly grab a new set. I didn’t even notice this the first 10 times Ive listened to this set.

      jaimedolcesinnersole I read a comment on the video of the full performance that the entire band was very agitated during this particular performance, due to the lack of drugs available in Sweden. The comment mentioned how they all shared a single hit of speed and just drank while performing. The comment goes onto mention how Jimi didn't enjoy drinking much.
      However, the thing is Jimi did drink a lot. Once spending all his military salary at the first bar he came across.
      So he may not have enjoyed alcohol but certainly seemed to consume a fair bit of it.
      I do genuinely beleive the band was only on alcohol and a little speed during this performance due the uncharacteristic lack of gurning (jaw clenching) displayed by Jimi.

    Mr Hendrix swirvels a mighty glance at mr Mitchell in the beginning. Mitch was eager to start, so he just started playing, a bit too early! But when they all come together it is the heaviest freightship our universe has seen and layed ears upon! Formidable! And the performance of M. Mitchell is unique and one of purest heaven like EXPERIENCES ever!

      Mitch came in correctly per the recorded version. Maybe they had rehearsed it with a longer intro and he forgot. Who knows, but Jimi sure shot him a glance.

    they were basically burnt out from constantly touring. The Experience was the highest paid act in 1969 but their music was played out. Jimi was looking for a change or other artists. if you listen to "cry of love tour" you'll see how much his music was evolving. way ahead of the competition.

      So where do you think all of jimies money went.? I hear and read he was broke and had to rely on the generosity of friends at the peak of his popularity. What are your thoughts on the topic of him being exploited by record producers and or management?

    to Jimi Hendrix you have inspired us and we miss you you are the universe Master of the guitar there was no one else that compared you in that era with the guitar of rock and roll era of the 60s and who has lived the sixties those days of heroin and dropping acid smoking pot those were the days of hippie and today we still live in that era no matter how or where we go it's in everybody's mind who has lived in this era but still feels it today rock and roll will live on you in infamy it will never die rock and roll is here to stay and what always stay here forever it will live in infamy TCB Elvis Presley That's it man rock and roll will never die
