Great narration, rich sounding audio. Very relaxing with earbuds. Have all his first presses on 33's and a cream fender strat with marshall 100 watt plexi.
I was 14 years of age at the time and remember the gig as of yesterday. The support bands were incredible (well done the promoter} .I was in AWE of Jimi and the Experience. What my juvenile emotions processed was that Jimi had Amp problems and Mitch moved off his drum kit and came to Jimi's Microphone to say that there was a technical hitch and that the Band would resume (which they did). A truly life changing performance by any standard's and already having all of Jimi's recordings up to that point I went out out the next week and ordered The Nice album called Ars Longa Vita Brevis. Keith Emmerson - their keyboard player moved on to ELP - but their performance on that night was legendary. The full tipping the Organ over, knives in between keys to sustain sounds and the Whip to admonish a telling off to his instrument. I think that night was also when Syd (Pink Floyd) went a bit bonky just tuning his guitar up and down and Dave Gilmour had to come on and save the day. I may be wrong about that because at that time Floyd were almost in darkness. The Move were a big surprise as well as they were much heavier on the night compared to their previous pop ousting's. What a time to be a kid - now unfortunately being a 70 yr old still playing, live musician within a world of media stars who often fake it or buy i the talent.
This takes us back to those days of brilliance on so many levels....the great words that writers used back then and the way the wrote so artistically in their descriptions of Jimi Hendrix's live performances !!
It's also lovely to hear all these original sources, uncensored, honest and allowing us to hear the true opinions of the time, even if they're sometimes negative, backwards or prejudiced. It's like hearing rock history but not through the hype machine of a record label managing their legacy marketing.
Thankyou! That is exactly what I'm trying to convey. History must be retold truthfully, warts and all, particularly for those who did not live through it. Best wishes! Keep watching.
Much gratitude for another amazing episode. The story behind the filming of songs from the Blackpool gig was particularly fascinating, as was the information regarding Jimi's birthday in Ireland. As far as the former is concerned, the footage of "Purple Haze" filmed there is frequently shown on a certain UK TV channel. It can also be seen in the short film "Experience" from 1968, of course. Thanks again!
Thank you so much! Just wait, there is so much more to tell. Your generosity is so outstanding! It's thanks to people like you that make this all possible. My sincere best wishes!
Another great episode!! Thank you so much for your exhaustive research, it's the closest we will ever get to actually being there. I'm loving this series.
This episode was especially awesome, for being able to hear about then see that blackpool footage, which I never knew existed, and seemed to show Jimi in a way I hadn't seen before. Amazing! :) Really love your series
My One Degree of separation from the Experience. In 1985 I was in one of the top bands in Portland Oregon, NU Shooz. We were on break when we heard that Mitch Mitchell was playing down the street with Hendrix imitator Randy Hansen. So, we rushed over there. Sure enough, it was Mitch. He was such a tiny person. It's so cool when you see someone from the Mount Rushmore of Rock. Mitch sounded like Mitch!!!
I think it's fair to say Hendrix invented the 1970s in the 1960s. Marc Bolan based his image on Hendrix and is seen as the inventor of glam rock when it was Hendrix who first wore the outlandish stage costumes. The early heavy metal bands were inspired by Hendrix as were other genres where guitars were dominant. Even The Jackson 5 weren't dressed in traditional Motown suits and clearly got their stage image based on Hendrix as did many of the 70s soul and funk performers who previously had short hair and wore matching suits . He transformed the whole culture not just musically but sartorially.
My friend, you are totally spot-on! Jimi created it all! When he arrived in London, Sept '66, his best mate was Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, who were still wearing the neck-tie and suits! Cheers.
Another interesting detail is that when Jimi played in Belfast on his 25th birthday, in the audience was Gary Moore, aged 15, who went on to become a famous guitar player. There is a video here on UA-cam of Gary playing "Red House" with Billy Cox and Mitch Mitchell in 2007. These details are in the booklet with the Gary Moore "Blues for Jimi" CD.
Think that I may have got my Albums mixed up. The Nice Album that I purchased after the Hendrix gig in Liverpool Nov 18th 67' was The Thoughts Of Emerlist Davjack. Ars Longa came later. Apologies to all. But I still remember Jimi that night. The audience loved him.
At 42:00 you have inserted a "This concludes Episode 13, September 1967" before the episode continues. You might wanna remove this as it could confuse people and have them not finish your episode, which would be tragic.
Yes. My apologies. I set out to produce the full episode, but at 47 min, I got impatient, plus encountered technical issues and thought I'd split it, but then the next day, decided it's gotta be full. Cheers!
I'm wondering why he was in a bad mood for several of those concerts. Too much LSD can cause a low serotonin level, even a crash or storm. Or was it a disillusionment from finding out he'd been hung out to dry by some of his keepers, or from learning about the reality of the business in general? Or was he being handled and managed badly? Maybe he just needed some time off? Or maybe one of several OTHER possibilities? Or was it from more than one thing? Maybe girl/heart trouble. (Also?) Everyone has heard how M. Jeffery the mobster ripped him/them off, which I'm sure was true, ALSO. Whatever the reason(s), he must not've been feeling the music.
Hey my friend, what a great question! It is my plan to discuss this. However, at this point in time, and in answer to your question, we are seeing everything that you mention beginning to emerge. There's the fatigue, the relentless pressure of both gigging and writing and the partying....basically you're talking 12 months of non-stop rock star action! Keep watching.
Great narration, rich sounding audio. Very relaxing with earbuds. Have all his first presses on 33's and a cream fender strat with marshall 100 watt plexi.
Thank you! Enjoy!
It’s a computer voice. Great narrator?…whatever
I get it man but honestly it’s nice. Astute sounding and calming. Matter of fact tone.

Wow! Awesome commentary. Thank you so much for contributing this. Cheers!
Thanks for providing an invaluable service to the music community!
You're most welcome! It's a story well worth telling, glad you love it as I do. Many thanks!
Thank you so much for your generosity my friend! Much appreciated. Best wishes.
This takes us back to those days of brilliance on so many levels....the great words that writers used back then and the way the wrote so artistically in their descriptions of Jimi Hendrix's live performances !!
You're totally on point! Well done, and thanks!
@ 31:36 the middle photo, I had that as a 4 foot poster.
I talked to Jimi on a trip one time with that poster! 😅
Wow! I love it! He's listening. Take care!

Very very cool!!!

Hey my friend, I'm a big fan of Gary Moore! Thank you for sharing this nugget! I plan to incorporate it into the later episode revisions. Cheers
@@BELLY_BUTTON_WINDOW Ok, good, so in that case check the video of Gary playing "Manic Depression" too -he does it really well. :)
This is almost like he's alive! This is going to be really bad when its over.
True! Remember though, there's much, much more to to go. Many thanks!
I think it's good!
44.49 checkout them pupils ,mind u Morrison and syd barrett constantly had very big pupils from the early days in the music 'business '
Awesome!
Think that I may have got my Albums mixed up. The Nice Album that I purchased after the Hendrix gig in Liverpool Nov 18th 67' was The Thoughts Of Emerlist Davjack. Ars Longa came later.
Apologies to all. But I still remember Jimi that night. The audience loved him.
Thanks!
3:40 where did you find these photos
Time and effort and a dose of love for Jimi!
At 42:00 you have inserted a "This concludes Episode 13, September 1967" before the episode continues. You might wanna remove this as it could confuse people and have them not finish your episode, which would be tragic.
Thanks, will check that!
Is this a re release 🧐
Yeah I saw last night's also...maybe incomplete and premature...
@@jamesneves8300 Thanks
Yes. My apologies. I set out to produce the full episode, but at 47 min, I got impatient, plus encountered technical issues and thought I'd split it, but then the next day, decided it's gotta be full. Cheers!
I think Catfish Blues from the Hoepla Dutch TV Show, is a better version than the one found on the BBC Sessions release.
Okay!
I'm wondering why he was in a bad mood for several of those concerts. Too much LSD can cause a low serotonin level, even a crash or storm.

I've seen photos where he's moody but normally when he looks tired .lsd gives HAppy serotonin but too much can make a difference as its very powerful
The roadies got to earn their keep😂
For sure!
The roadies got to earn their keep 😂

'Plug your ears ' I've seen footage of that unless he Said it a few ×
