Fuck off dude.What makes them "flamingly homosexual looking?" They are nicely dressed and dancing cool as shit. Everyone wore tight pants back then, and if youre staring at their bulge, thats your problem. And its Jimi.

Who else wishes those two clowns would get out of the way so we can get a better view of Jimi?

[drockkclapton]

I don't care either way, but those two guys strike me as probably being homosexual. and yes. Jimi kicks ass.

In July 1965, on Nashville's Channel 5 Night Train, he made his first television appearance. Performing in Little Richard's ensemble band, Hendrix backed up vocalists "Buddy and Stacy" on "Shotgun". The video recording of the show marks the earliest known footage of Hendrix performing. He often clashed with Richard over tardiness, wardrobe, and his stage antics, so in late July 1965, Richard's brother Robert fired him.

This something, hey everybody loved music fun, dancing, these men started many of the dances back then, moves, good ones too.

Just get your mind out of the gutter.

That's fine. But, understand this. Those 'clowns' had hired JH to play, to gig so to speak, with THEM! He was being given an early break into the business. So, appreciate this clip for what it is. Showing Hendrix paying his dues.

You can occasionally hear Jimi doing that muted-vamp he does so often, bet the others weren't happy about that haha
