The jam band & guitar world is filling more seats than most any other genre. I am, gladly, not sure what you are talking about at all here. Get searching, there's some genius stuff still being made. ..and much of it is even in production styles that old rock dads & gramps like us appreciate. GL.
I certainly can not argue with the magic being in the music, but, LOL, Jimi lighting his guitar on fire, while on stage, to close out a performance may very well be the origin of Pyrotechnics. 😜
Jimi was sometimes very cynical about his audience...he would flip off people, turn his back to the audience, etc. This happened frequently as his final two years progressed.
From a good soul I haven't met: "I didn't know I could miss someone so heavily who died before I was born, until I met Hendrix on his guitar, playing on my parents' 8 track"
“We were requested to play All Along the Watch Tower but I forgot the words so we will play Voodoo Child for you”. Then Jimi proceeds to play a 14minute rendition of the song, what a fucking legend!! 😎
Fuck man saw him live in 1970 at the Isle of White - we had just come from our first tour of NI (Aden 2 years before) me and my mates from 1 Para - the fucking hippies had long hair and ours was crew cut - but did we give a fuck ?
For guitar and bass it's largely pattern based on the asymmetry of the where the notes are located on the fretboard as they relate to how the strings are tuned. It's these imperfections that make it more 'memorable' to learn a guitar compared to that of a piano for example with a purely linear note layout. Of course playing a piano is also pattern based in terms of chord shapes and which fingers do what but what but where are the right notes? They all seem to look the same alternating between black ard white keys so you have no choice really in learning how to read sheet music. Getting to that point can takes months or years possibly whereas on a guitar I could teach you to play a song or two in afternoon without any sheet music required.
It’s incredible to get to witness this genius at work in his prime. God bless the internet. Thank you to whomever had the foresight to record the entire show in 1969. History on film.
@@user-kr3wx7hw5u I agree with him!! I'm glad he didn't play any! One of my favorites since '68 (Love Jazz, blues, real R&B, Classical...) I don't consider JHE as rock- just a mixture of music's not limited.😊

It’s hard to believe it’s been over 50 years since Jimi left us. He was gone before I was even born. I was born in 1974. I never actually knew a world with Jimi in it. Strange how someone who was gone before you were born can have such a profound effect on your life. The day I heard Jimi play the Star Spangled Banner on a flat tape deck in my friends room, when I was 13, my life changed forever. I’ve been playing guitar since that day.
He was alive when I was born but not for long, he died when I was about 9 months old. So, I never got to see him play while he was alive. Had to learn about him as I grew into a child.
I got to spend a few years with Mr. Hendrix. Was born in 60. Remember seeing him at Woodstock and on the Dick Cavette show and various other shows and concerts. No I wasn't at Woodstock but my brother in law was. All my memories are from seeing him on TV.
no he is more than that, to many he is the god of guitar. hopehe is resting well for when he comes back he will blast us even more. yeah reincarnation is a thing
Right before Jimi goes into the solo in Hey Joe you see him turn on his Fuzz Face and quickly reach down and turn UP the Volume control and turn DOWN the Fuzz control... I bring this up because in the guitar world many insist Jimi usually kept both controls dimed (on 10). Dave Wayer (a tech that worked on and sometimes modified Jimi's gear in '68-'69) insisted Jimi's Fuzz Faces came in with the Vol on 10 and the Fuzz on 2'ish. This footage here actually aligns with what Dave said, that Jimi was using the Fuzz Face as a "boost" to further drive the front of the overdriven amps. Of course there is evidence that Jimi dimed the Fuzz Faces too (squealing silicon FF when Wah engaged) but this footage shows Jimi definitely adjusted his fuzz levels and probably more often than people think. I believe I recall him adjusting the fuzz a few times throughout the BOG footage too. Anyways, just a Hendrix/guitar nerd pointing out something I thought interesting.
In the second show of this evening, Jimi apologises to the audience for sound problems and explains that American guitars, English amps, Australian pedals and Swedish electical supply are difficult to harmonise. I believe this is the reason why we see him adjusting the controls on his equipment at this show and not looking particularly pleased facially.
For all those humans that did not get to see these masters in the 1960’s this is hands down the best recorded set of Jimmy Hendrix and the band were all generations can witness musical greatness at its finest.
I Love how Jimi Always had sarcastic comments against the war. Mitches Drums here sound Big, Full, Fat and Amazing BC He was behind them. I Adore Mitch. I Love both eras of Hendrix Oh Man.
Hard to imagine that these fantastic musicians are no longer with us. Fabulous playing and legends now and what sounds they have left us, thanks guys, still listening, RIP Jimi and Noel and Mitch.
2:11 - '... You wouldn't know the difference anyway' ... HAHA! Jimi was a born comedian. As well as one of the best guitarists that ever lived. This is a stellar concert.
@@rroulette2660 Helicopters?...no...but airplanes, yes--26 times. But he purposely goofed off so much, that the Army dismissed him, after 13 months. That is what Jimi wanted.
Lol he starts and Mitch is still setting up a cymbal lol. Hes also out of tune but its only slight. He would bend and use that whammy bar to keep best in tune
He is one of the Club 27. One of the amazing heroes who is born in the false century ... in the century of industrie and captilasim ... in our century of plastic, digitalism and capitalism is no place for emotions and REAL guitar music
37:07 jimi calls for red house to be played in B. noel plays an A on his bass. jimi starts red house in B, ending on a B chord, noel plays an A. hendrix changes the song to A, slowly walking down the A minor blues scale before the band comes in playing red house in A. such an awesome moment, such an interesting band dynamic- whether noel genuinely mistook the song key for A, or whether he refused to play what hendrix wanted; the fact that we get to see that jimi was willing/able to make changes on the fly when his bandmate isn’t doing their job is amazing.
not sure, Im tuned to Eb here and they play Red House at the 6th not 7th fret (Bb). The Experience tuned to Eb. Buggered if I know whats happening here though. We lent Noel a bass when he toured here to new zealand in about 1994
My mother always tells me when we talk about hendrix that she never went to this perticualar concert because, in her own words, "Hendrix was just alot noise". In my opinion that is what makes hendrix so great, the fact that he can create such controlled chaos. Also my mom never took acid and listened to voodoo child, so yea xD
He was left handed but left handed guitars were hard to find. So he learned to play a right handed guitar upside down which means he was ambidextrous but to use a right handed guitar he had to visualize how to play his chords upside down which means he was a genius, like Amadeus, and probably dyslexic too Upside down & inside out. He was a savant with a Stratocaster but before he was famous he got experienced playing 2nd fiddle back up rhythm 1964 for the Isley Brothers at 15 1965 and Good Gawd Almighty Little Richard too ... but by 1966 he WAS the Experience all over London 1967 Hells Angels & lighting FIRE all over Monterey 1968 Orange 'Sunshine' that was fun 1969 at Woodstock he was the one 1970 and Jimi rocked our world until Jimi was done
This has always been a bit of a misconception. He actually never played his guitar strings as if they were upside down. he simply took a right handed guitar, positioned it with the neck in left hand instead of right, then re-strung it accordingly... ..exactly as he would if it were a left handed guitar. the only things that changed a bit were the volume/tone controls, pickup switch, and tuning keys were on the upper side instead of lower... as they would have been if it were a lefty. His playing of chords and single notes were no different than if it were a left handed guitar. A right handed guitarist could easily do the same thing if given a left handed guitar. If a righty guitarist re-strung the same way Jimi did it, his actual playing on a lefty guitar would be the exact same as learned on right handed. No change in technique would be needed. The only difference would be in turning the volume and tone up and down, those controls would be on the upper side of the guitar instaed of the lower. Not any big deal for any guitarist to do so and once strings are restrung, there is no change ion playing technique necessary. Quite a few right handed guitarists have done the same thing by taking a lefty, re-stringing right and playing normally which gives the same look of Hendrix... appearing to play with guitar "upside down"....but by re-stringing, the actually playing mechanics are the same and no change in technique is necessary. Not to take away from Hendrix's brilliance as an artist, just saying that the guitar being right handed was a non-issue because the way he strung it (upside down), essentially made his playing exactly the same as if it was a proper left handed guitar.
Problem though...Redding was not a good bassist...just adequate...and by this time, he and Hendrix were totally pissed off with each other. A few months after this, Redding was no longer playing bass for Hendrix.
‘On the whole, I can’t understand why anyone on this tour who saw us could have liked us. There was a lot of filming for Swedish TV and compared to similar films in 1967, we were a different group. Jimi was sullen and removed and actually slagged off the audience during the first set. He rarely bothered to sing. I paced grimly in my corner and turned my back on him. The sparkle was gone, very gone, replaced by exhaustion and boredom which showed in the sloppy repeats of the hits as we stared at the crowd with dead eyes. We hated playing Sweden. Always the same problem- no drugs. We were forced to drink the killer Schnapps and it brought on Jimi’s mood for the first set. In desperation I went out between shows and with much persistence managed to score a leaper. We huddled anxiously over the dressing room table, crushed the pill into a powder, shared it out, and snorted it. The second show was much more together and enthusiastic. But no wonder Chas was leary when Jimi approached him about management during our Swedish tour. Besides, Jeffrey owned Jimi. And even Jimi didn’t want the Experience to break up. It was his only sure earner.’ Are you Experienced, The inside Story of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, Noel Redding &Carol Appleby, 1990, @pp.113&114.
Jimi is definitely not feeling it but Noel's bass playing is pretty awful during this period to be honest. Pretty much playing all of Jimi's parts and not even changing keys with Jimi anymore 😕
I remember in 1967 when he brought the first record home... I actually thought Hendrix was a space alien 👽 what did I know? I was 13... Anyway life long Hendrix fanatic here!! 56 years. Uhh .. I think you're observation on this show and the original lineup and everything else you said is totally fucked up! with a fine layer of cow shit on top!! Sorry your take is wrong, wrong,wrong.... No hate intended. This show is up there with any live stuff in the history of sound in general, crossing all dimensions at life forming cerebral molecular consciousness and spectral color circuits.😑🔥💥🤯👋
Noel Redding was a whining prick , every interview I've ever seen of him he's ACTUALLY complaining about being in a band with the greatest guitarist to ever live .
I could not agree more. His mistakes were most people's brightest moments on the guitar. A natural and gifted like no other. He understood not just sound, but noise and the things that could happen when you played without rules. Thank the good Lord there was a Jimi. The two greatest moments in the history of electric rock and blues music was the entire Monterey set and his performance of "Machine Gun" at The Fillmore on December 31, 1969. That was not a song, but a perfect interpretation in words, music, and sound; a painting of the ugliness of war... Just ridiculous...

First time I heard him play voodoo Chile at record tempo. He usually plays at like %110 tempo speed and it sounds a little rushed but this was just right
Luckily I've seen this concert elsewhere, this is difficult to watch because it was, as you eluded to, almost certainly recorded with a cell phone off another viewer. Definitely psychedelic....as unintended as it may have been.
DYNAMITE SINGER EVER!!! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and BEAUTIFUL 🦋🕊🦋 I REALLY LOVE LISTENING to JIMI HENDRIX PLAYING the GUITAR AS HE WAS the VERY BEST!!! PEACE and LOVE. RIP JIMI HENDRIX and YOU ROCK!!!!❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤
If this is as close as I’ll get to seeing Hendrix, I am ok with that. I find comfort and excitement in the unknown of what seeing a concert would’ve been like.
I don’t think the world realized the magnitude of what was happening at this moment. Hendrix was on a level that no other guitarist will ever reach, very seldom does an artist become one with their instrument and express themselves though it without limitations.
God created an absolute genius His name is JIMI HENDRIX FOR me, the most important musician I have ever known I never listened something like this: animal, violent, and so tender at the same time A voice langoureuse envoûtante un jeu de guitare unique à sound so caracteristic And a charism angelic Peace and love
Oldies but baddies. 🤣🤣. He's genuinely modest for being one of the all time greatest guitarists ever. If that performance was bad then his good performances must be so good they open a rift in the fabric of the universe.
At just shy of 14 minutes in this video Jimi begins a Voodoo Child type of strumming and then proceeds to make sure that Noel Redding knows what bass notes to play for the remainder of Spanish Castle Magic.

Jimi was sullen and removed and actually slagged off the audience during the first set. He rarely bothered to sing. I paced grimly in my corner and turned my back on him. The sparkle was gone, very gone, replaced by exhaustion and boredom which showed in the sloppy repeats of the hits as we stared at the crowd with dead eyes. We hated playing Sweden. Always the same problem- no drugs. We were forced to drink the killer Schnapps and it brought on Jimi’s mood for the first set. In desperation I went out between shows and with much persistence managed to score a leaper. We huddled anxiously over the dressing room table, crushed the pill into a powder, shared it out, and snorted it. The second show was much more together and enthusiastic. But no wonder Chas was leary when Jimi approached him about management during our Swedish tour. Besides, Jeffrey owned Jimi. And even Jimi didn’t want the Experience to break up. It was his only sure earner.’
Are you Experienced, The inside Story of the Jimi Hendrix Experience,
Noel Redding &Carol Appleby,
1990, @pp.113&114.
Thank you for your consideration and where can I purchase this book? Please advise me Lone Eagle.
Jimi is definitely not feeling it but Noel's bass playing is pretty awful during this period to be honest. Pretty much playing all of Jimi's parts and not even changing keys with Jimi anymore 😕
Interesting view. I think it's a great performance
I remember in 1967 when he brought the first record home... I actually thought Hendrix was a space alien 👽 what did I know? I was 13... Anyway life long Hendrix fanatic here!! 56 years. Uhh .. I think you're observation on this show and the original lineup and everything else you said is totally fucked up! with a fine layer of cow shit on top!! Sorry your take is wrong, wrong,wrong.... No hate intended. This show is up there with any live stuff in the history of sound in general, crossing all dimensions at life forming cerebral molecular consciousness and spectral color circuits.😑🔥💥🤯👋
Noel Redding was a whining prick , every interview I've ever seen of him he's ACTUALLY complaining about being in a band with the greatest guitarist to ever live .
so he passed away 27 is not the age
rest in peace genius
WOW!!!! I wish i was born in that time. Real music played from the soul. What a gift to the world.
I love how Jimi reaching for those right notes with feeling and heart!!!and who plays like Jimi?? NOBODY!!
I could not agree more. His mistakes were most people's brightest moments on the guitar. A natural and gifted like no other. He understood not just sound, but noise and the things that could happen when you played without rules. Thank the good Lord there was a Jimi. The two greatest moments in the history of electric rock and blues music was the entire Monterey set and his performance of "Machine Gun" at The Fillmore on December 31, 1969. That was not a song, but a perfect interpretation in words, music, and sound; a painting of the ugliness of war... Just ridiculous...
@@xtc1957 unlike Dylan . . .I Do Believe You .
I remember the first time I heard this man playing guitar; I still think the same "is there only one guitar in there?"
Jimi is the Greatest guitarist of All Time..
Hands down
Buckethead
Wait 'til you hear Mahavishu Orchestra!!!!!
@@burningrabbitacres8330 john mcglaughn ,very good but Jimi had a turd load of emotion n ,PSYCIADELLIA GOING FOR HIM and ferociousness . ******** Garcia , page in zep . Clapton pre 76 , Beck . a few more but i got more Jimi shirts, 2 more .than GARCIA . yup . special mention the lads in Big Brother . t rex tone 🌋 .
Le meilleur set, quelle chance d'avoir vécu ces années magnifiques.
Love how Jimi played on the edge of continual feedback… it was so out of control - total mayhem - controlled chaos

No one has done it since
Agree
Spanish Castle Magic 🔥
The one and only. His musicianship is otherworldly and it’s no wonder I refer to him as “the big bang of electric guitar”
❤sweeeeeeet
Jimi Hendrix, guitar, Noel Redding bass y Mitch Mitchell. drums , saludos desde Colombia
yeah Jimy you are a legend you died young but your music lives on thank you and rest in peace
What a fenominal recording! Performance is stellar. That bass in the Marshall stack. That sound is never surpassed ever!!
One of the better drummers I’ve heard recently
First time I heard him play voodoo Chile at record tempo. He usually plays at like %110 tempo speed and it sounds a little rushed but this was just right
Yes. Simply one of the best musical takes in history
Uno delos qetrasmite buenas rolas son historia
even the camera was on acid.
Luckily I've seen this concert elsewhere, this is difficult to watch because it was, as you eluded to, almost certainly recorded with a cell phone off another viewer. Definitely psychedelic....as unintended as it may have been.
And the musician
Purple Haze LSD orange double dimple LSD orange Sunshine LSD white heart LST
The roadies just soaked everything in liquid LSD about 45 minutes before showtime.
🪬 Pandora doesn't go back in the box bro
DYNAMITE SINGER EVER!!! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and BEAUTIFUL 🦋🕊🦋 I REALLY LOVE LISTENING to JIMI HENDRIX PLAYING the GUITAR AS HE WAS the VERY BEST!!! PEACE and LOVE. RIP JIMI HENDRIX and YOU ROCK!!!!❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤🕊❤
If this is as close as I’ll get to seeing Hendrix, I am ok with that. I find comfort and excitement in the unknown of what seeing a concert would’ve been like.
I saw Jimi 3 times!! amazing.....
I don’t think the world realized the magnitude of what was happening at this moment. Hendrix was on a level that no other guitarist will ever reach, very seldom does an artist become one with their instrument and express themselves though it without limitations.
43:00+ Mitch even knew how to incorporate his syncopated style even on slow jams. Brilliant drummer.
God created an absolute genius
His name is JIMI HENDRIX
FOR me, the most important musician I have ever known
I never listened something like this: animal, violent, and so tender at the same time
A voice langoureuse envoûtante un jeu de guitare unique à sound so caracteristic
And a charism angelic
Peace and love
Mein Idol
Hatte keine Schule
Alles selbst gemacht
Bester Gitarrist der Welt
Ich bin krank nach ihm
The best live concert of all time raw brilliance can you imagine being there wow.!!!!
I’d love to see Zeppelin live in 72
I was there!! 13 years old :) I don't think we were aware of what we were witnessing!
I’m sure the sound in person would have been all-consuming
Concordo
@@tottelager2250awesome, lucky! Who could ever have comprehended what they were hearing. I still can't.
Oldies but baddies. 🤣🤣. He's genuinely modest for being one of the all time greatest guitarists ever. If that performance was bad then his good performances must be so good they open a rift in the fabric of the universe.
They do!...look for them!
Probably the best vide I ahe seen of Jimi, showing his playing so clearly. Thanks
Dont delete this please. This versión it's great
At just shy of 14 minutes in this video Jimi begins a Voodoo Child type of strumming and then proceeds to make sure that Noel Redding knows what bass notes to play for the remainder of Spanish Castle Magic.
One of the best 3 piece bands ever, grew up spinning these songs on vinyl 😎
I watch this 3 times a month, since I found it
la calidad de imagen y los movimientos de cámara son magníficos, psicodelia al palo
Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell were superb too
Not here, they were NOT!
That bass sound is deadly and futuristic
I found the right thing to listen to :)
he was so tired bless his heart he was so fucking tired
Нет слов, очень круто!
Hendrix forever!!
Fan de Jimi depuis ma tendre enfance... La rencontre avec Miles m'aurais fait plaisir. Merci pour ce partage....
BEFORE HARD ROCK/HEAVY METAL EXISTED...HENDRIX WAS ALREADY THERE.
ETERNAL LEGACY😀
I saw Stevie 3 months before he died. Had tears when he did covers of Hendrix.....Red House and Voodoo. RIP Stevie!
I saw that tour in July. Great show! I’m so glad I got to see him before he passed. Cocker was a legend too!
Yes indeed...He was even better than Jimi, IMO.
Jimmy King ❤
Thank you so much for this incredible video. Jimi was a legend. Often imitated, never duplicated.
Hendrix es la luuuuuuuuuuuuz
