Thank you to our patron Scott for this amazing pick... a warm up for our big Jimi video tomorrow. We did a couple tracks from this album last week and my mind was absolutely melted. I am so glad Scott requested this one. The first 10 seconds were very familiar but the rest I didn't know. And I'm an idiot for not knowing it LOL this was amazing. Not even 3 minutes long and it melted my butter. Good stuff...

@polittek Месяц назад

Jimi Hendrix, who was already a great fan of The Beatles, bought the Sgt Pepper on the day of its release and two days later performed an audacious cover of the title track at the Saville Theatre. He didn't know at the time that some of The Beatles were in the audience.

@johnsilva9139 Месяц назад

Well I think he he did it because he knew they were there and to pay respect, but in any case a great historical moment for rock music. BTW, I think it was Paul McCartney who recommended to the producers of the Monterey Pop Festival that Jimi be given a slot there a few weeks after the Saville Theatre show. Brian Jones introduced him at Monterey.

No one's a bigger Hendrix fan than me. His influence is incalculable. But there has been guitar genius on Jimi's level long before he arrived. Please check out Django Reinhardt at some point. His jaw-dropping improvised solo on "I'll See You In My Dreams" is legendary, as is his entire career.

@TerenceShortman Месяц назад

Summer 1966. A small Greenwich Village venue. There, a little-known guitarist performing under the stage-name Jimmy James Sitting among the Cafe Wha? audience, on the recommendation of Stones guitarist Keith Richards' girlfriend, was Chas Chandler - bassist with chart-topping UK band The Animals and now on the lookout for new talent to guide through the murky world of the music business. Promising an introduction to his hero Eric Clapton, he soon convinced the 23-year-old to accept him as his manager. Chandler brought Hendrix to London in late September and, with financial backing from Michael Jeffery who had overseen The Animals' short-lived career, set about promoting his young charge. the rest is history.

I was lucky enough to see Jimi live twice with The Experience (both times in Houston). The first show was at the Houston Music Hall (my first concert). I was stunned at what I was seeing and hearing. Human beings just aren’t supposed to be doing that (except for David Gilmour). At the 2nd show at The Sam Houston Coliseum, we had much better seats (around row 20 on the floor instead of row 15 in the upper balcony like we had at the first show). Why I remember it so clearly is because Jimi ran onstage wearing a black silk headscarf and dressed in a black silk bodysuit that had silver sequins running up and down his arm sleeves and the sides of his pant legs. We punks could only stare at this apparition of coolness before our eyes. Of course, Jimi just tore the stage down and we walked out afterwards in a dazed stupor. I think we’d just been Experienced.

Summer of 67. Summer of Love. I was walking home from hanging out in the schoolyard. Just finished 6th grade and excited to move up to Jr. High School. This song came on someone’s transistor radio. It just had the sound and message that, “things are changing. Big time and fast.” You had it exactly right. It was like, “Whoah! What is THIS???” Axis Bold as Love album and Electric Ladyland are my favorites.

I’ve known about and have heard Purple Haze before. Wow, it’s incredible to hear again! It’s so short… I was 11 years old when it came out in ‘67. My mother bought Beatles, but not Hendrix, so I didn’t know his music then. He was amazing.

@johndavids4780 Месяц назад

Our band covered this in around 1970 and when I sang it as "Excuse me while I kiss this guy" with an internal giggle. I also used to sing Purple Haze with the lyrics of the Green Acres TV show theme song. His atmosphere was one of incense and pot as I remember it. 1967 was the summer of love but not for me as I was in Vietnam in 67 & 68.

@-R.Gray- Месяц назад

At the time, many of the sounds on this album hadn't been heard before. A guy named Roger Mayer was inventing never-before heard effects devices for Hendrix. On this song, it was the octave-fuzz device called the Octavia (listen for the note you hear an octave above the one being played). The Woodstock version of this song, starts where the "Star Spangled Banner" left off, and that ends with some great guitar soloing, followed by the tasteful "Villanova Junction".

@vicprovost2561 Месяц назад

You can't go wrong with Jimi, this is a signature tune from him, if you play guitar, you have very probably bumped into it along the way. It has been a staple of Classic Rock Radio/Streams since the day it was released. Great song from the master. If you want to hear the best Live version of this do Woodstock, he is insane there. Another great song is Hey Joe, the best Live audio version of It is at Winterland 10/12/1968, the guitar intro is as good as anything he ever did, he just takes flight and you had to know the audience was being overwhelmed by what they heard, some of his most fluid, articulate and beautiful p!laying, totally amazed me when I first heard it. Well worth looking for, enjoy! 🔥 🎵🎸🎤🎶🔥

@davescurry69 Месяц назад

One thing you do have to remember though with the UK acts back in the '60's, the songs they released as singles were NEVER included on the corresponding albums. So whether it's the Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Who, Hendrix, whoever... the albums and B-sides were never included on the albums. Then when the artist's U.S label would put the album out in the states, they would remove a couple of album tracks and put the singles in. That's why "Purple Haze", "The Wind Cries Mary" and "Hey Joe" were on the U.S edition of the album (replacing "Red House", "Can You See Me" and "Remember") and not on the UK edition. Either way, Are You Experienced is in my opinion, the greatest debut album of all time.

It’s more that songs were added for the US release. Jimi became, well, Jimi, in London. Chad Chandler of the Animals brought him over and launched his solo career. The album was released after a string of hit singles. When it was released in the U.S., the singles were added to the running order.

Fucking Brilliant!!! Electric guitar God!! This song might be my FAVORITE Hendrix track. Although this might sound like heresy, my favorite aspect of Hendix's music are his studio recordings rather than his live recordings. In the studio, Jimi lets loose, but he doesn't play ten minute guitar solos that go on, at least to my ears, in an unstructured way. His greatest studio recordings, like Purple Haze, are intense, tuneful, and focused slabs of ABSOLUTE GENIUS. BTW, Lee: 1967 was the "Summer Of Love", kicking off with the release of Sgt. Pepper on June 1 of that year. Also, Hendix's playing is STILL REVOLUTIONARY! No amount of technology could make someone sound as amazing and awesome (in the true, literal meaning of the word) as Jimi did.

This was the first song to receive a lot of airplay (at least in Detroit) but Hey Joe and Foxy Lady (from the same album) also got a lot of play. The entire album is great.
