SPECTACULAR 'Improv' Solo Here! Thanx gacelaxd! *****(((((10)))))***** Jimi was the finest of all time, and will never be overshadowed, nor undermined.
This solo he made-up (or rather 'felt') on the spot - THAT'S what made Jimi a one-of-a-kind icon anomaly, never to be seen again. He didn't just play spectacular, he FELT what he played, spectacular, right out of his heart & soul, he was a "messenger." This is what Paul McCartney described back in the day as Jimis actual talent surfacing!

@StreetAaron Yeah thats always the problem. How to play inspired when recording.

Thank you. Seldom version of the solopart. Jimi is/was the master of guitar. And a good boy he was too. Just see the documentary films where he writes postcards to his father during his growing carreer.

@SuperETPlayerZ Who else can play and sing like that? It must be Jimi! 1968, Chicago

Jimmi used to play around with his music a lot, trying to refine and amend all the time,,,he carried his guitar around with him every where. even when he went to the toilet, he used to take it with him, just so he could make the riffs he was working on, flow.....Yeah this is Jimmi,,,makes yer skin goose man, peace

from where did you obtain this video?

@gacelaxd seems like it is slighty pitched up. maybe playback a little faster. don't you agree?
Based on my limited knowledge and experience, and the feeling of the solo, this is Jimi. February 25,1968. Civic Opera House,Chicago,Illinois,U.S.A. Correct me if I am wrong.

You're right Taipobryan! Only Jimi can play the solo like that :) The date and location is correct too.
