[InTeR4ever195]

which album is this song from?

[MrDaisySantiago]

One of the best songs!!

[teloabfabf]

I prefer the slash !!!!!

[yugang08]

@teloabfabf so u came here on a jimi hendrix video/song just to type up comment about liking another guitarist (slash) more rather than talk about the song itself??? LAME!

[teloabfabf]

@yugang08 LEARN TO TYPE !! JIMI HENDRIX is FASHION FUCK SLASH is

[yugang08]

@teloabfabf dude, look at the structure & the wording of your own comment, because it not that clear as to what it is you are talking about. "Learn to type jimi hendrix fashion fuck slash is" - what the fuck does that even mean?? you are no one to tell somebody how to properly type a coherent sentence lol

[TheCityofgood]

@teloabfabf

learn to type!! jimi hendrix is fashion fuck slash is - typed by you

^^oh sweet irony.

[CherokeeMusic]

THANK YOU for getting the title of the song right! It's a silly pet peeve, but I don't understand why people think this song is called Message to Love.

[TweakFreakBekir]

jimi was the man that changed the world...at least some of that....

he was tryn' to spread love&joy together :) this song is flowless man...i  love

[lastrevolv]

daaaaaaaaaamn you cutted the end where he does some GREAT feedback

[oldschool70s]

There is a lot of talented guitarists and a few gifted in the world but only one Jimi Hendrix.

[Guitarlove420]

i think hendrix's hair do was perfect with that size fro at woodstock

[coal1987]

4:38 Baby JIMI!!!

[Abrohill]

una de las mejores canciones de hendrix, la primera vez que la oi, el 70, tuve un pequeño satori

[harleylen]

Message to Love...Fillmore East

[foreveryoung62]

isn't the name of the song 'message to love' ? says here message of love...

[SirTokesAlot16]

there is one thing to say about the ppl who played with jimi aside from a few in the band of gypsys they were not up to par in live concerts and were often found to b off timing and if watch sum videos closely isle of wight in specific he keeps giving them dirty looks and tryn to help them thru the song to make the drummer get back on time. they almost ruined his concert even at the end he says peace love hapiness and all the bullshit/goodshit then drops his guitar and walks off.

[oldschool70s]

@SirTokesAlot16 You gotta be kidding me? That's a heart wrentching statement. Those guys did the best they could. This music wouldn't be the same. This and all the music "they" made together is 1 of a kind! No imitations compare! 

[928CS]

I'm a huge Hendrix fan, and with that said, It took me a LONG time to warm-up to Jimi's Band of Gypsy's - I'm glad I eventually got it! Better late than never, I guess.

His tone here, to this day remains the benchmark for guitarists to shoot for, IMHO of course. So pure and woody; during the leads it sounds like he could be playing an amplified cello. Go ahead and kick me for that remark!

Also, the playing is so tight that it could be mistaken for a studio-performed/produced album.

Bravo!

[pleximars]

this was the new years eve show in NY

[JaeQue87]

but just waiting to get out. I am chuffed to have the same initials as him, be quarter african with an afro and been playing guitar and writing for 12 and a half years. I feel some kind of connection with him, he died in london, i live in london near his death place. Check my tunes out please.

[JaeQue87]

jimis playing makes me cry. He was so important to music, the endless diversity and earthly raw & natural sound is like no other, and has still not been replaced by any other mortal guitarist to this day.. not that jimi was mortal, thats why he died so young, coz the gods needed him back, n he knew hed left us enough. sooner or later he will return in reincarnated form. hes probably already here,

[MrKirkenstein]

band of gypsies is one of the best live albums ever recorded.

the who's live at leeds is another.

;-)

[anfony22]

This was at South Saturn Delta not woodstock. Good vid though!

[HettySiem]

@anfony22 It was at Winterland San Francisco

[72rocknrolla]

@HettySiem Band of Gypsys!!!

[Bluesbreaker2010]

@HettySiem wasn't it at the fillmore in New york city?

[72rocknrolla]

@anfony22 Band Of Gypsys!!!!

[monkeyjoe9]

One person still lives in too much darkness.

[getbonified]

great song i like the anthoglogy version better though

[goldeneyesofafrica]

Love this song! Thanks for this!

[snhereford]

Lets not overlook Billy Cox's bass work here either.

[blackandtanful]

当時ﾎﾟﾘﾄﾞｰﾙより1750円､ジミヘン"ﾊﾞﾝﾄﾞ･ｵﾌ­ﾞ･ｼﾞﾌﾟｼｰ""ﾗｲヴ･ｸﾘｰﾑ"見開きジャケ～狂喜の2­枚～聴き続けた"恋のメッセージ"

[TheEndProject]

This version is so powerful, Buddy Miles is so good in it!!! For sure that will be the music I'll listen to in 40 years!

[pinman54]

@TheEndProject : I'm 57 years old, been listening for 40 years and will probably die listening to it. Nothing better!

[DerGlaetze]

At this phase of Jimi's style, the guitar is actually creating an additional bounce to the chords. You can hear it again in another song of his that was recorded at the same time, called Earth Blues. Check it out. He just kept going higher and higher.

(And he was probably chewing gum, nonchalantly at the same time.)

Amazing!!!!!

[ecuachet]

@DerGlaetze

Yeah, as a long time fan and guitar player I could see Hendrix was getting better and better. Sucks he had to end.

[585858000]

@ecuachet how do you get better,as he was shit-hot?????,.

[Rankerbill1]

Absolutely peerless.

[codehendrix]

@kuipje82 yeah his SISTER!

[vampyre0518]

this is the song i want to remember by when i die

[GunTotinHippie]

@kuipje82 lol

[A1MaxJones]

Funky Soul from the master of electric blues, y'all.

[MrMotthead69]

1) Duane Allman: BEST ever R&R guitarist in terms of feel, emotion, heart, spirit, tone and musicianship..EVERY single note was heaven-sent and came directly from the Gods up above!...

2) Jimi Hendrix: BEST innovator, creative, diversified, multiple-sound-making guitarist EVER...Jimi has played with MUCHO heart, soul, tone, etc., but in this all important category was SECOND ONLY TO DUANE...

[gillyguy]

@MrMotthead69 I have to disagree, but I'm glad you love Duane haha. He's very underrated by people my age so sometimes I feel like I am the only person who appreciates him. I'm 19, so most people I talk to don't know about classic rock artists. The ones that do and have an interest in them just seem to neglect old Duane for some reason, I don't know why, he was incredible.

[MrMotthead69]

@gillyguy 1) Duane Allman 2) Jimi Hendrix 3) Carlos Santana 4) Jimmy Page 5) Jeff Beck BIG DROP-OFF 6) Robin Trower 7) Leslie West 8) Dickey Betts 9) Slash 10) Johnny Thunders

[Rankerbill1]

@MrMotthead69 Wot no Stevie Ray?and no Clapton ? Oh dear

[MrMotthead69]

@Rankerbill1 NOT on the criteria specifically listed above although I did forget Clapton and would put insert him at at #7

[candymonica]

@Rankerbill1 I know man, dude it´s crazy for sure... he should not be allowed to comment on anything anymore for that...

[TimMoraal88]

@MrMotthead69 im not sharing that opinion with you, i think Jimi is THE ALL TIME NUMBER ONE for me

[boxingin]

Sounds very similar to 9 to the universe.

Great stuff!

[NANDO218]

man i wish we can have another great artist who wants to do nothing else except spread love and music. music for the most part is saturated with negativity

[Dannyboyee82]

@NANDO218 Well said

[Probesoul]

One of his greatest guitar works... and to think that much of it was improvised simply boggles the mind.

[NANDO218]

@Probesoul music played from the soul is the best kind

[jahlats]

@NANDO218 I couldn't agree more with you. Music played from the soul is truly the best

[echosatisfactionxx]

loved it

[gerebs1]

Sweet wild man!!

[thatkidinthecorner11]

You know the song is good when the dislike button is unused

[shrubhater]

Killer version! 

[stevechief1234]

Hendrix and the Band of Gypsys were perfect, wish they'd made more albums

[Sarberus]

btw, this isn't an previously unreleased version. It was on the Band of Gypsys album that came out just before Hendrix died. Excellent album. All live.

[patrickwilsonmusic]

Great but the monstrous soul-searing feedback at the end is missing...thanks though!

[gards2]

This is THE version :)

[billyshitcheese2]

@gards2 I agree - phenomenal

[kunstliefhebber]

0:52

For I AM WHAT I AM ~ Thank God!

Some people just don´t understand....

[delkin118]

i love this version of message to love.....

[SonicDestroyer84]

indeed, one of my favorite hendrix songs!

thumbs up!!! LOL

[ssh44]

Amazing how Jimmi puls it back on track as they get out of rythm, now there's a master!
