My name is Mary, and I'm 72 [today Jan 24, 2024']. This was my theme song every time I opened my radio show as a DJ at my college radio station [WIIT Chicago] in 1969. I was 18 then, and still love this tune now... Wish I could have seen Jimi play live back then!
Happy birthday Mary! Myself I took my wife to see Buddy Miles on her birthday. Just so happens my wife Mary is a disco queen 😅 But I got to meet Buddy between sets and mentioned her birthday today and how she grudgingly came with. When the band got back onstage he dedicated "The Wind Cry's Mary" to my wife on her birthday! To me it was too f---ing cool!❤
@@johnconnor9679 A lot of things and they're in all his lyrics and interviews but there is no trace whatsoever that he said that. It comes from aphorisms by Sri Chinmoy; "When the power of love Replaces the love of power, Man will have a new name: God." "World-peace Can be achieved When the power of love Replaces The love of power"
@@johnconnor9679 He said "With the power of soul, anything is possible". "With the power of you, anything you want to do". That was from a song and that's how the quotes got confused which the other one was from an 1800's English guy.
Jimi Hendrix is playing a guitar solo... and you've got the camera pointed at the bass player. Bravo. I hope someone in the past was waiting for him outside the studio with a sock full of pennies...
it's all lip sync. Jimi doesn't look very happy about it either none of them do. I think it was remastered to sound live but if you listen close it's the album cut note for note which is rare for any band to do live. What really gives it away are shots of the drummer when you hear cymbals ring out and he's not hitting them. The drumming looks so fake you just have to laugh.
This song reminds me of a very special friend of mine whom I haven’t seen nor heard from since 1998, Mary. solis, I still love and think of you every day and yes the wind still cries Mary
One of the most beautiful and perfectly written songs ever created. It should one of the songs they send out to space. Simply timeless. “Will the wind ever remember the names it has blown in the past”?
Forget the guitar for the moment. This is a beautiful and highly original dream jazz soul masterpiece. A most unusual song structure made real by three wonderful musicians. RIP the Experience
Such a beautiful man. His voice, his guitar, his 'looks'. Even when alive this man orbited💫 the earth. He was from the Universe and left us his magic ❤
All three gone and so much went with them. I remember the first time I saw them, TOTP about 1967/8 doing Hey Joe, I couldn't believe it. Went straight out and bought the album and played it in my bedroom on my Dansette record player. What a time to be alive.
I had never bothered to listen to this song closely to realize what a gem of a poem it is. And it is the calm Jimi Hendrix, which you would see now and then. He was also saying like, man, here I am....
After all the jacks are in their boxes And the clowns have all gone to bed You can hear happiness Staggering on down the street Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers "Mary" A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces Of yesterday's life Somewhere, a queen is weeping Somewhere A king has no wife And the wind, it cries "Mary" (Instrumental) The traffic lights, they turn blue tomorrow And shine their emptiness down on my bed The tiny island sags downstream 'Cause the life that lived is dead And the wind screams "Mary" Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past? And with this crutch Its old age and its wisdom It whispers, "No, this will be the last" And the wind cries "Mary
Still it would've been nice to see him playing guitar but thanks to the film The Good, The Bad and The Ugly it became a fad to do extreme facial closeups.
I have talked to a few players who new or opened for him in concert. Each said -"there was no one like him. He oozed soul on guitar and vocal". One player made the comment that I found very interesting: "Part of Jimi's guitar sound - was his voice - the soul was in both". One player who I had take lessons from in the 1960's related to me after Jimi's set with The Isle Bro's, he sat at the bar and they talked with him. He told my buddies he wanted to start his own band. They thought 'well, he's kinda flashy but his own band?" The rest is history...
Man he was the coolest looking Rocker ever! His guitar playing speaks for its self . Let’s talk about his cool vocals! That gets overlooked because of his playing!
In England and Europe he appeared on a lot of TV shows, when he came back to America, he couldn't get on Any TV show. Luckily we have these videos from when he was England and europe for us to see and treasure.
Fact is, Jimi didn't like his voice. I couldn't imagine someone else singing his songs when he was alive. Very cool voice like you said. And also I'm thinking about those lucky men and women who had the privilege to sit there and watch the best trio ever playing in front of them. Good times for music.
This evening I played " The wind cries Mary" with my stratocaster . I learned this song long time ago,when I was young and Hendrix alive. My feeling is the same: GREAT ,WONDERFUL,ORIGINAL ARTIST!!!
As close to the studio version as Jimi probably ever played live. Sweden must've seemed like Neptune or something to him so, "Hey guys, relax. Let's nail this sucker." a very high quality capture from that era. Great.
I've never seen this before. Greatness personified. I think of all the music we missed because of his untimely death and say to myself, if only he'd lived
Two clasic guys who spoke to a whole generation together. And I never thought they would ever be seen singing together again! I always loved these two!❤️
This is tremendous footage. Jimi Hendrix Experience when they were just starting to make it and reshaping what people thought could be done with rock music. Amazing!
glorious. Thanks for finding and sharing. What would Jimi Hendrix say to the current madness of the human world? Give peace and love a chance. Freedom. Nature.
it's in beautiful colour this programme.i had this song on tape,right from the start.a lad in my class said that his parents had a Jimi Hendrix record in the house and it was the wind cries mary.he said"it's "rubbish"! I replied that it's the only Hendrix record that I didn't like.i thought that it was bland.it's actually quite mellow,soft and soothing.not bad when you're sleepy or relaxing.listening to all of his other music,you would never believe that it was the same artist!
I made many friends using this type of hairdo in the early 70’s , this song reminds me when I left El Salvador for good at age 21 and I’m 67 now, thanks.
As a lifelong musician, drums was my 1st instrument, but when I saw Jimi on my 14th birthday (6-22-69) @ Devonshire Downs, Granada Hills Ca. (which is on video) I realized "I'm suppose to be in front of the stage" & have been ever since. Thanks Jimi. See you in heaven.
We never got enough of jimmy. I love him and was so sad at his passing. I bet the angels are having a great time. Just miss him so...he had so much to contribute. ❤
I think this is a live recording. Jimi was known for matching his studio tracks. The drumming is subtle and magnificent. He is playing the drums and Jimi is strumming. Even on a slow, beautiful song, his playing is effortless and exquisite.
Definitely played live, not miming to the studio recording. There are small, subtle differences in Jimi's vocal delivery and in the guitar solo and ending. But it hews very close to the studio version!
Yeah I noticed that too. Having some basic TV production training, my guess is they had limited cameras and needed to make sure they could get back on his face whenever the solo ended. Hopefully the broadcast version did better.
Jimi was killer, but you are so right the JHE was 3 guys, Jimi of course, Mitch influenced by Jazz and Noel who 'suddenly' found himself as the bass player. Amazing what these strangers to each other did.
@@InterstellarBreakdown Life long Hendrix fan here. Sent this video to my sister who always said to me, "You love that screaming guitar Hendrix, not for me." This a few other songs Iby him I sent her had her changing her tune. I always mention this video to people who think like her and who think he / they were only loud jumping around making noise. That's the thing about him / them. Jimi could be wild but he could also just stand and play his ass off with or without effects. He was very versatile and pretty good with an acoustic guitar also so there's another myth that he was all gadgets that falls to the floor.
HE WILL ALWAYS BE GREATNESS...FANTASTIC.. MAGNIFICENT GENTLE MAN AND THE BESTEST GUITAR AND COMPOSER EVER IN MY TIME...AND NOW!!!RIP BLESSINGS TI THE HENDRIX SPIRIT ❤😢😢
The One and Only James Marshall (Johnny Allen) Hendrix.. That Man... The Man We Know as Jimi Hendrix Changed The Face of Music Forever.. A True Musical Innovator and Master of His Craft.. There Will Never Be Another... Rest in Power My Most Awesome Musical Big Brotha 💖💖
I COULDN'T EVEN TIE MY SHOE DAT GOOD YET, I COULD SING THIS SONG THOUGH, DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HE WAS TALKIN ABOUT, BUT EVEN @ AGE 5, IT BROUGHT TEARS 2 MY EYES. MR. JIMI HENDRIX, THE father of ACID ROCK. FLY HIGH MY HOMIE.
This is one of Jimi's finest.. no scatological nonsense whatever. Pure musical and lyrical beauty, depth and purity.. like a perfect poem played by Mitch Mitchell, Noel Reading and the master of masters himself. ✌️💨🍄🫶🕊️🛸👽🤷🎵😸✌️🐕☀️🌐😁🍀🧡
In the 1990s...my mom not only loved me, she respected me. When I said Jimi Hendrix was the greatest guitarist who ever lived, my mom was determined to watch with me a high quality TV documentary on him....which featured him high as a kite, chasing his girlfriend with a brick in his hand. My mom still watched it. She loved me
Here's why Nashville players loved Jimi. It's an elegant country ballad, plain and simple. His Native American accent is what hides it's true nature. What a genius.
@@averyadrian1534 There definitely _was_ country in Jimi's blood. Read the interview excerpts compiled into "Starting at Zero" and look at how he describes his own music therein, for example. "Country" is one of the forms that he mentions. Listen to the guitars on "Stepping Stone" or "Night Bird Flying". The country influences are clear. Moreover, trying to limit Jimi's music to "blues-rock" does him an injustice. Again, consider he way he sought to describe his own music in the interviews he gave. He wasn't interested in being lumped into a particular style.
Aside from obviously jimi being jimi, Noel and Mitch sound very good here, simple but solid and on a couple of moments Mitch lets his skills shine through with those cool fills which is always nice, criminally underrated drummer.
Hahah yes I’m also a bit disappointed not to see the solo, but guys let’s focus on the positive - that this video even exists! And it’s free to watch here. I remember trying to find live videos of Jimi Hendrix in the early 90s when I first discovered his music, before youtube existed and this stuff was impossible to find. Just to get ahold of live audio was hard, let alone video with this kind of quality, now even colorized. I’m just thankful that this was recorded and preserved as well as it was for future generations to enjoy.
Awesome performance. This is very true to the recorded version. I'm guessing this must have been very close to when it was recorded and released, sounds like a studio outtake.
Very good performance ! It is definitely a very difficult song to perform. Janis did it in an incredible way, you come very close to her outstanding way of bringing the song forward. You are the best imitation. Applause 👏🏻 😊
Thanks for colourising this. It deserves the life colour brings. It is expertly filmed - cinematically so. I used to be angry the director didn't get the solo, until I learned Jimi insisted his technique wasn't filmed so others didn't steal his style.
Besides Chris Squire I think Hendrix wrote the best bass lines for Noel Redding, and to play on the Strat. So much rhythm and soul, it's very flowing with the guitar.
Such a beautiful song. I’ve long thought his songwriting talent doesn’t get the recognition it deserves, being somewhat overshadowed by his unbelievable guitar playing.

I saw Jimi do this song in 1967. It's hard now to describe how creative, new, and original his music was back then!

And the clowns have all gone to bed

Footprints dressed in red

"Mary"
A broom is drearily sweeping
Up the broken pieces
Of yesterday's life
Somewhere, a queen is weeping
Somewhere
A king has no wife
And the wind, it cries
"Mary"
(Instrumental)
The traffic lights, they turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island sags downstream
'Cause the life that lived is dead
And the wind screams
"Mary"
Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past?
And with this crutch
Its old age and its wisdom
It whispers, "No, this will be the last"
And the wind cries

Thanks for posting this. I’d love to grab the camera man and tell him to zoom out from Jimi’s face so we can see him holding the guitar.
Hear-hear . . . idiotic camera work focusing on Noel-nobody when it should have been on Jimi.
Beautiful drumming
Brilliant drumming
none words, just a simple and special feeling, thanks Jimi...
nice work.
Very good performance ! It is definitely a very difficult song to perform. Janis did it in an incredible way, you come very close to her outstanding way of bringing the song forward. You are the best imitation. Applause 👏🏻 😊
Thanks for colourising this. It deserves the life colour brings. It is expertly filmed - cinematically so. I used to be angry the director didn't get the solo, until I learned Jimi insisted his technique wasn't filmed so others didn't steal his style.
WOW. intimate, medatative. This is an incredible filming and performance! priceless...
Jimmy em cada apresentação um solo diferente 🎸.
Besides Chris Squire I think Hendrix wrote the best bass lines for Noel Redding, and to play on the Strat. So much rhythm and soul, it's very flowing with the guitar.
They were all three excellent musicians
What a great storyteller
did the kids sitting there realize that they were hearing and watching the greatest musical performance of their lives?

Such a beautiful song. I’ve long thought his songwriting talent doesn’t get the recognition it deserves, being somewhat overshadowed by his unbelievable guitar playing.
?!?! you're not the only one, trust me a lot of people in this world unfortunately.
