@carlsfenderbender carlsfenderbender is right. This is about six weeks before IOW. But, the shirt (top?) is the same- I think it's called the 'butterfly shirt' by Hendrix old-schoolers. This is awesome! Thanks for uploading it!

No it is not the Isle of Wight. This is New York Pop at Randall's Island, New York. If I'm not mistaken. FYI Jimi wore the same shirt at Atlanta, Randall's, and the Isle of Wight.

Annd he didn't wear a headband at the Isle of Wight, btw.

Another song from this gig was released on an official album (the one with the impressionist looking painting of him on the cover), but I forget which.

@rhythmrancher I got to see this outfit at the Experience Music Project. I have the soundboard recording of this show and Red House really stands out as a gem from an otherwise kinda raggedy show. That said, a raggedy Jimi was still better than anything else!

[rhythmrancher]

@jimistreets He wore it at the San Diego Sports Arena in '70 too. I've heard it referred to as the Butterfly Outfit. Glad someone posted this, for years all we got to hear was Red House from Randall's Island.

@LucasMarquesGHC Yeah, he actually wore this costume a few times in 1970. Seattle, Ventura, Atlanta, here and the Isle of Wight. Experience Hendrix supposedly has the masters of this footage and is hanging on to it, no doubt for maximum exploitation, er, I mean, enjoyment........

I was there. Jimi saved the day. I still have the flavor in the back of my nose, this vid brings it all back. It was an amazing weekend, Jimi topped it all off. My brain is still fried. ;)
