Jimi in his last days was depressed over issues with his gear. Especially Fender Stratocaster that we're a nightmare to keep in tune and not to mention sustain of a banjo.
@babyjef He is suffering the wrath of God right now for killing his musical miracle that he had gifted the Earth with, for all of us to enjoy. Michael Jeffry was a sorry sack of shit.
I was at that concert also. We were kinda stoned, but it's a precious memory. Too bad there are no recordings/video of the whole concert. There is some of it on Hendrix' official website, just the audio, and lousy quality.I remember it started with him saying, it's gonna get loud, and it's gonna get louder..lol.. And it did. Jimi played great that night. Not a lot of antics, just pure Blues. One of his best live concerts if not the best.
the only thing good from the 60's generation of lazy,commie,faggot shitbags was the sounds..not the words not the ppl not the culture in any way shape or form.
jimi hendrix - rest in peace forever. even though, we all know that he's sitting on saturn's rings, rocking the entire galaxy somewhere. i love you, wild blue angel.
wherever the rock legends are - joplin, hendrix, morrison, etc- has to be one groovy place. that's one concert that's literally out of this world.
Watch the 1973 documentary "Electric Ladyland". The coroner reported that Hendrix was not and had never been addicted to heroin or any other narcotic. He died from asphyxiation (choked on his own vomit in his sleep). This was due largely in part because his management ran him into the ground by scheduling him at opposite sides of the country night after night. He came to rely on barbituates to get rest.
Well said my friend.Heartless management! And they were also "Stealing" his hard earned money.One good thing from the Showtime movie "Hendrix" shows the reality of his managment (Mike Jeffries).Or however you spell his last name.When Jimi would ever ask him about where's his (Jimi's) money is going,Jimi was met with intimidation and lies.A few years after Jimi passed,ole Mike met his maker.So what goes around comes around.We'll always love you Jimi.Thanks for leaving us your soulful playing.
I herd somewhere that his manager had a 2 million doller insurance on Hendrix, so one day after Jimi took 9 sleeping pills, he drowned him by shoving a bottle of red wine down his throat.
Yep the sleeping pills did nothing to him. His BAL was 0.025 or 20 mg that did not kill him either. His lungs however was were full of wine. Bad things happen to people that say you should Declare war on Washington.
The most common theory is that he took 9 pills and passed out immidietly and later that night he vomited and chocked. It's possible that Michael Jeffery killed him cuz he was afraid that Jimi would split.
@ufloetz Exactly, I truly believe he was killed because he did say that the people must rise up and take back the control of the government. He told the black panthers if they want things to change they need to go to Washington and set off a bomb, not to harm anyone but to make them realize the people want change.
Jimi did dope "heroin" point blank. what the hell does some doctor know about what he did. I'ts out of anyones system in 4 days so how could anyone say that?
Nothing like Garcia, who wouldn't play certain cities because they were notorious for NOT having good heroin connections. At this point, what does it matter? RIP to all.
well you know how it is with heroin. it's often all or nothing. if it didn't show up in Jimi's autopsy, you can say a. he didn't do it, or b. he was able to keep from getting addicted.
there was also no heroin found in him the day they found it on him in Toronto, which was probably planted on him by his manager as a warning.
you are joking!! in the sixties kids are using drugs for recreational use...heroin,lsd,barbituates,weed etc. Drugs are part of the hippie culture in those days...get your facts straight!!
Well hell, I was there, I was on the stage next to the BIG speaker, sitting crosslegged. Just to the right of jimi. I snuck on because it was so dark. They saw me but they let me stay cus I just sat really still. green barrels ...I...think...
I Was there too, standing on a chair. ALl I remember was that he played one of the best concerts he ever played, and no one filmed it or recorded it. What a shame. Aloha Brother. I also wetn tothe Crater celebration that summer, and would love to find some footage from that. Stevie Miller, Stone Pony,Big Brother and the Hodling Company, Quicksilver, I can't remember who else. We were selling mesculine and cocanuts.. That was a great summer.
anybody who doesnt realize that this video is a complete dub is a dunce. like, its so obvious. 1:15...the lyrics start and jimis in the middle of some solo.
I've never seen this. Man, teasing me by syncing up the first shot. Hey, check out my favorites list for more Hendrix and suggest any additions, Thanx!.
I was at this show and actually met him as he got out of his limo to go into HIC. He gave me a Kool cigarette. We then listened to about an hour of the Hare Krishna's chant. Then he came on and blew us all away.
Wow! Is this for real? I was at that concert, and I was told by many collectors that theere was no videos of that concert other than one home video clip with no sound. It was a great night, and I will never forget it. I would love to have the whole show to relive it. I guess there is no more? Where did you find this? Thank you!
I know he wore that outfit a lot. I just meant that with the quality as good as it is, it remindes me of the Atlanta film. I have a question. Why the heck are some frames upside down? lol
"The quality of the dubbed audience tape sounds pretty bad"
yup, actually the only time it was synched well is his introduction to Ezy Rider.
"but the actual footage is really good! It looks like outtake footage from Atlanta 1970."
it's 1 august 1970. He wore the same clothes quite a few times on his "Cry of Love" tour - Atlanta (4 july), New York Pop Festival (17 july, where he told some hecklers to "fuck off", audience footage available on youtube), Isle of Wight (30 august 1970), etc.
Ohhh! My God! Beautiful! Rare Footage! People Need To Appreciate on what they aren't able to see unless we have people like ISB that surfaces videos like these. Goodnes! Good Job I look forward for some more!
Well I wrote in the description section that it's the audience footage, innit? Be glad there's even this little document of his last US gig - if you found something better from this gig, lemme know, ok?
I went to this concert also. What a great memory. It's nearly 42 years later, and I can remember the thrill. Thanks Jimi
