And he's chewing gum, like he's having fun. It's superhuman.

I don't know about you guys, but i can't deside where to go next. Way to many awesome suggestions. :/

@22hulahula LOL

Most impressive guitar playing I've ever seen. He may not be the most technical guitarist ever, but the amount of feeling, intensity, and rawness can never be duplicated. That's what makes Jimi the greatest ever in my book.

cool but is he not wearing pants

How can you not love this man, watching him here? Too cool for words, can chew gum and play guitar like nobody's business, doing shit no one had dreamed of before but that we see all the time now. Why did I not hitch over to SF and catch his free show in Golden Gate Park, or go to see him at the Fillmore? Being 12 was no excuse. I saw Cream then. Would so much rather it had been Jimi.

@AllBobsAllTheTime Apparently Wolf himself wasn't too fond of this version. I heard both at around the same time at age 16 when I was first getting into blues music and other genres. I like both but I can see why Wolf might not have been too enthused about Jimi's approach I think Jimi actually produced much better blues songs as he went on when he wrote songs that were personal to him such as Hear My Train Coming for example.

@megajames3000 The playing and the tone when he's rocking the rhythm intro is good. The lead notes when he hits the bass strings are just a blur. Not hard to get , just turn the distorrtion up

@genericgeorge i think it's a fuzz masterpiece. i listened to the cd like 20 times and i love it every time. this is a tone that i doubt most of us could get

Can you imagine never seeing or hearing of this guy before, and you are front row at this concert when he comes out and explodes on stage with this? Talk about having your mind completely blown. But that's exactly what most of those people in the audience experienced. Nobodyy in the USA had any idea who Hendrix was. This was his first US concert after he made it big in England.. This is probably the most mind blowing performance ever recorded on film.
