  • 28 people dont have an univibe pedal :)

  • 3:35 is where the fun starts. Nobody else could do this.

  • Comment removed

  • Very nice work......

  • I don't know how much this song means to you youngsters but it means a lot to me! d(*_*)b

  • @saytenvideos I dont know how you define youngsters, but im 26 and i discovered this at 24 and it means a lot to me too. Great sound.

  • Some of the best in rock history ever . Jimi was way way out there on his guitar. Brilliant

  • 5:47 Rage against the machine cover

  • RESPECT FROM GREECE!!!!!!!

  • What a waste of life, both NVA and american.

    Sexy music, BTW

  • Jimi Hendrix , un hijo de una nacion invasora y depredadora del planeta como pocas , fue el mas grande musico de rock de todos los tiempos ..... ES MUSICA Y DE LA MEJOR , ESTO ES ARTE !!!!!

  • Vietnam would have been a success if it weren't for the fact those Communist bastards were dug in so good. They had so many caves and bunkers that we couldn't get at it, an attack from above would do no good, if you broke in, a wall of angry Vietnamese soldiers would be waiting to kill you on sight. It was a war where only time won.

  • @steampunkredneck1 our tactic for fighting them was very repetitive too it was bomb the shit out of this area and then land the troops there so in a way we telegraphed where our troops would be

  • Communism would never be supported by anyone if there wasn't such a large gap between the wealthy and poor. I'm talking about not even not being able to afford basic necessities not the new iPhone 4s. There are millions of people in the world today living below the $1 USD poverty line. Forsaken by most of the world; communism provides hope for these people. Most of them have nothing to lose. This is why they are easily swayed by corrupt politicians into fighting senseless wars to defend their f

  • you did a great tribute to our soldiers, they were not treated well when they came home as this was a real shame since they were fighting for their country..........

  • @TeamBrightzz lmao fighting for their country that is such bullshit

  • The "Live at the Filmore" version is waay better though

  • One of the grooviest Hendrix songs ever

  • I was 11 years old and had 3 older brothers but the draft did not get all of them,just 2.My oldest brother was 19,a Green Beret.My second Brother was a door gunner on a Huey.They both fought for land,liberty and freedom.They both served the MIGHTY USA.If you ever catch just the two of them late at night after a few drinks and toke's the way that they look and phrase their words will chill you to the bone.Anybody that wants to go to war after what I heard has got a screw loose.

  • The cats at 2:00 are prolly Australian SASR. They have FN FALs and are a fairly small team. They kicked the NVAs and VCs asses. Go Aussies go

  • @Musashiprodigy Hey look, it's an aussie taking credit for nothing! that's not something you see everyday /sarcasm

  • @annoythefish Yeah they stayed off the radar. They usually only went out with 4 or 5 men and kicked some serious NVA ass

  • I'm pretty sure this is Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix, not Machine Gun...

  • @0sirhc9 its not little wing its machine gun

  • @0sirhc9 your exactly correct.........

  • @0sirhc9 It is Machine Gun now that you switched the audio.

  • No guitarist has come close to this in the 40 plus years since

  • I've got this on vinyl, love how he makes that guitar scream

  • Jimi was, is only the one! His protest against the Vietnam war was well audible by the US crime government. I remember this ... I love his songs, all his songs.

  • I think that this video has been very well done. It likely captures what Jimi felt about the war. And of course the musical performance is incredible. I have to admit to being a bit baffled by the arguments I see about this video. What is there to argue about? The person that posted this was attempting to share his ideas and visions. That is what America is about, and I think it is an interesting piece. Peace.

  • THE HUMAN CARNAGE INFLICTED BY THE HUMAN SPECIES? CAN IT BE REAL? IS THIS REALLY REALITY OR A FORM OF INSANITY OR A DISEASE OF THE SYSTEM?

  • Love it, just love it. Take's  me back to junior high school when I started listening to his music.

  • Good music is just good music

  • Did anyone else get a flashback to air-raid sirens at 4:50 ?

  • why is this commie drug addict noise being combined with brave kids actually stuck in the nightmare ???

  • THE GIRL WHO RAN ACROSS THAT BRIDGE AT THE END OF THAT VIDEO WAS STILL ALIVE,FANCEY REMEMBERING THAT HORROR IN YOUR LIFE ????

  • yeahhhh remeber that dead vietnam people "!!!! remember that massacred child "!!!

  • @sumamoto remember the jew commie masters they followed, allowing themselves to be setup.

  • Three night stand. Also had Voices of East Harlem and the Joshua Light Show appearing with him. Would dual title songs. One song he did he said you can call this song Paper Airplane of Crash Landing. Machine Gun was the same way. I don't think he called it Vietnam but but believe second title was Machine Gun. As soon as he said Machine Gun Buddy Miles took off. I was there the night before or after New Years eve. Can't remember which one.

  • Great song and good photos, altough I am not sure they belong together. Where are the pictures of the 100 million dead from communism?

  • @willieboy3222 Communism never killed anyone. Stalinism and Maoism did, but not Communism. There has never been a true Communist state, just as there has never been a truly free state.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Ho Chi Minh, in my opinion, lead the purest and most good natured communist nation yet.

  • @SuperSmashyfication yugoslavia was

    

  • @SuperSmashyfication WTF are you babbling about you MORON. Go live in one , try South Africa. Bolsheviks murdered over 10 million before handing the ball to Stalin. You know shit, fucking Lenin played millions starving to weedle technology out of the west, Hoover and The American Relief Administration . You ignorant kommie fuck wad.

  • @northpal1 Wow, swearing just makes your arguments so much smarter. Maybe you should try pulling your head out of your arse next time?

  • @SuperSmashyfication "pulling your head out of your arse next time" - you are a MORON.

    Go live in one of your commie paradises, you are just MORON. You read fairy tales then expect them to happen. Ever hear of history ? It's a study of the past, do you even know what communism is ???? Not the bullshit you read on a pamphlet next to the lose weight ads.

  • @northpal1 If capitalists hadn't ruined the world I wouldn't believe in the greater good of communism. I am merely choosing the side that looks for a solution, rather than hoping the world will fix itself. You will condemn that as foolishness, but surely it is better that all can live at a moderate level than condemning the majority to poverty so the privileged can live in luxury.

  • @SuperSmashyfication "capitalists hadn't ruined the world" - yes the bolshevik jews pushing marxism/communism/jeudasim. You are such a MORON you can't figure that out.

    Jew capitalism/communism are the two book ends you play checkers in the game of chess.

  • @northpal1 And the gibberish begins.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Typical jew commie, man you fools are so predictable.

  • @northpal1 Wow, I'm Jewish now? When did that happen?

  • @northpal1 don't try to hide, your smoked out bagel boy. You lack of intelligence and gay quips, gave you away..

  • @SuperSmashyfication but imagine down the road when the world gets a billion more people. thats more division of property and things. so when life goes on you are going to have less and less. that is if you are single. but to have more you need kids so then people are gonna try to have a lot and it can be a mess

  • @SuperSmashyfication then down that road there will be crime and then people will be killing because of communism

  • @anessone What you say is true, but it merely shows why we need to be able to speak openly on the pros and cons of government systems for the benefit of the entire world, rather than being branded unpatriotic for pointing out that flaws in your own government. At least you can use logic and reason rather than shouting louder than the opposition. Well done.

  • @SuperSmashyfication yeah but your argument was just pure communism so that is you putting yourself in a tight box. same as if i said only straight capitalism.

  • @anessone Fair point. I will make efforts to diversify my arguments in future.

  • @SuperSmashyfication good thing you are learning hehe

  • @anessone *shakes hand and walks away*

  • @SuperSmashyfication Communism is stupid.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Well, stalin worked for what he said was communism. To say that communism never killed anyone is pointless, cause there has never been communism, and all we can say about it is the events that happened in its name. So yeh, Greater Good didnt kill anyone either but cause a lot of killing.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Rubbish! Communism killed a lot of people. I live in country that was communistic and I know it's history. A lot of people died in prisons, some of them were executed, some of them were tortured to death many people died also in labour camps and mines. Communism itself could be relatively good idea as a philosophy but it's useless in practise! Just because always someone abuses the idea and turns it into evil. Don't say it again! Communism kills!!!

  • @TheRealSixthBeatle Capitalism has killed more than communism. From colonies driven by capitalist greed to the Patriot Act of the USA, capitalists has killed more people than any other ideology. It also kills for the most petty reasons, such as money and resources.

  • @SuperSmashyfication so your arguement is ''well this killed more..''?

  • @SuperSmashyfication and capitalism isnt an ideology. its a system of money. now the several ideologies behind capitalism thats something else.

  • @SuperSmashyfication I can't understand a statement such as that; There has never been a communist state that didn't involve killing people. It has never been done successfully, largely due the fact that every so-called communist nation has had a ruthless dictator at the helm.

  • @bkmfusion the idea at large could have some merit, but it simply won't work.

  • @bkmfusion Communism has never killed anyone because there has never been a communist state. In the same way free trade has never never done any harm because all countries that claim to support it eventually interfere in some way, and there is no free democracy because governments will always take measures to ensure their own dominance.

  • @SuperSmashyfication WOW! Your are absoultley right.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Damn Straight man, I wanna chill and smoke a joint with this man everyone

  • @SuperSmashyfication its nice in theory,but communism is an ideological belief, and ideology's get people killed.

  • @invanz0 Capitalism, religion, imperialism and nationalism are all ideologies too, and every one of them is at work in Afghanistan today. Communism cannot compare to Capitalism in sheer killing power. The only reason Capitalism is favored is because it is what all the other countries are doing. It is the national equivalent of not doing anything unusual to avoid being singled out.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Exactly right. People in the west commonly count up various deaths and attribute them to communism and not to the actual parties implicated in them. The inverse is true for capitalism. When people are killed, mercilessly exploited, and otherwise have their lives destroyed en masse daily, monthly, and yearly for decades on end because of capitalist practices, we rightly blame the complicit and collusive agents. Capitalist ideological hegemony in action.

  • @SuperSmashyfication Да, уж, выразился..умник. и коммунизм убивал. и много. А уж про англосаксов я вообще молчу - убивают и убивают: индейцев, вьетнамцев...иракцев, афганцев, ливийцев. давненько, в ответ, в рог не получали..хотдоги... 

  • most complicated tune from band of gypsys, but etraordinary

  • Unfortunately that fat cunt jamie hendrix has vehemently copyrighted all of Jimi's music(which is so amazing it should be available to all..) so we won't be seeing much live footage, and if we do it'll be taken down swiftly.

  • push turbo and fly to the stars

  • oh serenade me jimi.. 3:37

  • I'd prefer watch Hendrix playing his strat, rather than photos of war and pain...

  • @voodoochile97 This song was made for the Vietnam War, so it suits the song...

  • @xJTS1523x Ok then. Good work by the way!

  • @voodoochile97 so you can forget the true face of this world?

  • @theguythatfailed I wish I could!

  • @voodoochile97 dont we all

  • @voodoochile97 I agree as a musician and guitarist, but Jimi was making a statement with this song and the feeling he is obviously trying to put forth is that the Vietnam war was filled with horror and death, and sugar-coating it (to me) takes away from what he was trying to get across. War is hell on earth and Jimi hated it.

  • @bkmfusion I know.... This song is a message for peace. War is very bad, and Earth is full of evil men!

  • @voodoochile97

    We wood all be able to see the master blaster on his strat

    if people like Mr{corporate} insert name here,(ie sony ec ) didn't scream copyrig

    (ps I forgot how to spell would,)

  • @voodoochile97 that war and pain; influences, and is directly connected to the music. People need to wake up and stop looking away. Or else more war and pain will continue...

  • @voodoochile97 Turning a blind eye to reality is the reason senseless wars like this still happen.

  • PEACE!!!

  • imagine being on patrol for charlie.....this song in the back of you mind.....

  • One of the best guitar solo's I've ever heard !!

  • Ive been listening to this album since I was 17. Im now 58 and never never will I stop getting goose bumps every time I do!!

  • no matter what the war is the solders pay the price Rest In Peace Solders I remember you and hope u guys are laughin at us all u didnt die for nothin !!!!!

  • I figured it out! The US felt they didn't rape enough Asians in the Pacific so they went to Vietnam!

  • @TouchMaMunky whats so bad about that?

  • @TouchMaMunky Fool, you never heard of Viet-cong. Thats who raped the asians besides the few nut ass american soldiers that was wildn out on the Vietnamese killing them for no reason. Get your facts straight.

  • I thought the US Military only invaded countries so they can rape everyone and steal natural resources?

  • @TouchMaMunky - Sometimes they do it for no other reason than profit. Plus, they get to test out their new military hardware on people, buildings, bridges, dams, etc.

  • @DrKenHildebrandt dont forget for the economy WAR is good for it because it creates an industry in medicine military weapons MREs etc war promotes an industry that results in destruction and Death fuck War and fuck the was industry

  • i hate 28 people

    

  • Whoever posted this video, please change the title to it's proper name: Band of Gypsys - Machine Gun (live Fillmore East New Years Day 1970)

  • @authorityblues that would be,..new years EVE!

  • @jlambert321 if memory serve's,. the pic.of the clock on the album read about 7 minute's to midnight,...

  • @jlambert321 Actually that's wrong. The BOG played two sets; one on new years eve and one on news years day. This version of "Machine Gun" is from the second set.

  • @authorityblues Good eye. Thank you. Still have the vinyl oh yea.

  • faf;ksjdf;jiodfhta.... that was me wiping the jizz off of my keyboard

    

  • Not to piss off the vets but ...was stopping the spread of communism really worth it

  • @MrJcenter7 Apt Question, but theres no correct answer

  • @MrJcenter7 well would you want to live in a world where you cant pick your president and the govt tells you what you are going to be in life as far as your profession? Would you want to be told who can live in your house? 

  • i got a hard on for jimi

  • The only reason I listen to this song is beacuse it reminds me of my father, he lost his mind over there in Viet Nam. he's told me a lot of his war storys. And I got to say if i've seen the stuff he seen, and did the stuff he had to do, I probably would have lost my mind as well. The war in Iraq is nothing compared to the horors of Viet Nam.

  • This warbis getting old,i think more likely it will remembered for music like this or "Hey Joe,Volunteers dei Jefferson and so on.." The true art is always superior to the misery of human history....Jimmi will never die!!

  • trippin from my daddys war to my war in Iraq. oh my god I feel you jimmy!

  • I wish my Mac book had tons more volume, this would be even more amazing if it were 50 decibels louder. Jimmy you robbed us, but thank you for what you did leave. 

  • I HAD IT ON MY FACE BOOK ACCOUNT,LISTENING, JAMMING, GETTING HIGH OFF OF ICE CUBE AND JIMMIE. THIS TRACK SENDS ELECTRICITY FROM MY HAIR TO MY TO MY TOES. THE POWER IN HIS GUITAR PLAYIN. I PAY TOO, BUT IT DON'T SOUND LIKE JIMI HENDRIX!!!

  • Great track!!

  • see it again & cryin'

  • I respect those who went and fought in the vietnam war, its a war that couldnt be won but the government still sent out parents children to die...

  • hows does this not have millions of hits? wake up people this is the single greatest artists 2 ever fucking grace planet earth and this is his greatest opus besides his rendition of the national anthem, jimi hendrix is electric guitar!

  • i hate that when i type in machine gun on youtube the artist that comes up is Kelly instead of Jimi Hendrix

  • Holy shit the bassline

  • This is proof of not only Hendrix's talent, but Miles and Cox's talent too. Nine minuets of pure jam.

  • he was Murdered like JFK

  • This was from the second set on New Year's Eve. During the first set Hendrix did all his tricks and stuff and walked off stage to the Fillmore's Bill Graham and asked how he did and Bill told him you didn't play! You did all you gadgets but you didn't play. So the next set Hendrix just stood still and played this song. I think he answered Bill Graham during this song.

  • omg.

    

  • o it great song one of those you liston to when you wasted :)

  • That bowy Jimi made some good music ..one love.

  • very good ! I liked ! (Y)

  • 26 people are high

  • @BURHEAD55 Two people here are high and they dig it fucko :)

  • @197054lilsmokie Well, they're females. And they are doing vocals. And, they aren't the lead vocals, therefore they're backup vocals...But ya know, you're right.

  • Its an amazing song, and its a great video, but some pictures aren´t from vietnam war

  • Why not dedicate the song not just to soldiers, but to all people who suffered from the Vietnam War, which was the whole world? One of the reasons why we have such wars is the constant glorification of the military as a special class in the US. If you join the military for that status, you're on an ego trip. If you worship these people, you're brainwashed. EVERY person in the world does something important. If garbagemen didn't pick up the trash, we'd all be in bed sick, not free.

  • @VioletDeliriums you have no idea what your talking about.join the military for an ego. do you how poorly we as United States citizens treat vets of all wars. its border line criminal. Unless you have served your country then you dont have the right to speak about my military. And furthermore not everybody does something important,we have people like you running their dick suckers about shit they have no idea what they are talking about. if you dont like it move to Sudan

  • @KOC23LBJ First, I have. Second, everyone has the right to say what they think, and that is why I did it. Third, to say that it is yours is an ego trip as well.

  • @VioletDeliriums theres a difference between supporting the troops that are giving their lives but against the policy makers the generals you know the people that tell the soldiers what than just being brainwashed.
