Pure genius. Note that he tuned the strings even as he played. A member of his band said that if his guitar wasn't in tune he would usually simply bend the strings to get the proper notes.
To think this almost didn't happen. When jimi mentioned finishing with this they did everything they could to talk him out of it. Thanks for not listening Jimi.
@oskarbjornstad877 yes but I know they thought it wouldn't go over well because Vietnam was in full force at that time. And young men were being drafted. If I wasn't right I would have never said it. I don't talk just to hear my own words. You can research this for yourself. And find the truth just as I did.
When I was in high school, the school installed a Muzak system that would play music in the hallways between classes. One day, someone pulled a prank. They snuck a phonograph into the school, and wired it into the school's sound system. During class, the whole school got to hear THIS recording!
The way he goes from the National Anthem to bombs and screams, then back to the National Anthem again, will always be a great reminder of the American governments true stars & stripes - warmongers!
If you pay attention to his face throughout the look of his concentration and total absorption. He is totally in the zone. He's living the experience as if he was actually in a war zone. Living his imagination through his guitar. TRUE GENIUS 🎸❤️❤️
Jimi produced one of the greatest pieces of art of the 20th century; up there with Picasso, Dali etc. He brilliantly expressed the great paradox that is America - beautiful on the surface yet distorted and corrupt underneath. He painted the pain and the horror that is America's compulsion to war. That performance will forever live in history.
@@67marlinsah yeah, not liking aerial bombing and kids dying makes you a coward, you gotta love the military propaganda machine this anthem hasnt changed a bit, it was true then and its still true now.
With how much military service was around Jimi and his whole family whether growing up in Seattle as a black man where most black citizens were GI’s of some sort, to his service time himself where he learned to play the guitar, to the combat time spent by his relatives, the chaos forward thinking playing in between the chords we expect feels like it and this entire song carries a bigger impact with him.
I was 9 years old living in Montreal when i saw that. I was hooked. I have lived through the best music in history now. I saw more than 50 concerts in the 70s..alone. unfu..king believable. Queen Elo Styx Santana.
After Woodstock regarding Hendrix rendition of the SSB music critic Al Aronowitz of the NY post wrote- " It was the most electrifying moment of Woodstock and it was probably the single greatest moment of the sixties"
Notice Mitch played along to make it even better.......Woodstock concErt or in Jimi's garage played in. this is a masterpiece imaginative of what u can do with a guitar. was a special moment in music history for sure
That's LARRY LEE playing guitar behind him on stage with the fringe on his hat. Larry was Al Green and Kevan Tynes guitarist in the recording studio too. R.I.P.
All you have to do is think about how you've never heard any other rock band or guitarist play this version of Star Spangled Banner. What other legendary rock song is never played by others? That alone is enough to exemplify how truly unique and amazing this performance is.
This is the first public performance where he used the new UniVibe. Now we think of it as essential to his sound. It's pure whooshy swooshy deliciousness.
Très doué en musique et chant et j adore ses habits différents des autres il est unique il manque à beaucoup de monde il fait pleurer sa guitare j aime beaucoup quel talent est mort trop jeune bravo ma hendrix
Hendrix the Elvis of the fender strat and made those guitars sing unlike them others of today and this must be the best piece of stuff he's done in his lifetime RIP JH ❤ you your stuff will live forever master jimi james marshall Hendrix your the GOAT of them all sir jimi james.man.😊
Rockets red glare - makes his GUTIAR sound like the destruction on war! Amazing also looks like no whammy on the fender he had ultimate control of his instrument
🇺🇸 🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥 The only problem i have with this is i wished he would've paused before his next song to let the audience try & digest what the hell they just witnessed.🤯😵💫 He went for the KO with Purple Haze immediately after.
Magnifique festival avec tous ces artistes qui ont joué les musiques que j’aimais en faveur de la paix dans un monde toujours victime des violences proposées,malheureusement!!!☮️❤️☮️

Only US anthem may be destroyed like this
@@lorenzomoro1313 "I thought it was BEAUTIFUL"! - jimi on the DICK CAVETT SHOW. September 1969
Your gay
Frusciante used to do that too who was heavy inspired by hendrix
Did Hendrix have perfect pitch?
To think this almost didn't happen. When jimi mentioned finishing with this they did everything they could to talk him out of it. Thanks for not listening Jimi.
And it wasn't even at the end, his whole show was soo damn good.
Not sure if that’s accurate. He played the national anthem since ‘68

That's beautiful LOL.
That's awesome
@@bobcarter6869wonder what the reaction would be if someone tried that today?
Hendrix was and will always be one of the greatest guitarists of all time PERIOD!!
Was and still IS!!!!!!!!----
THE greatest
sum would say that 'clapton is god' died when jimi came to london.....
You got that right. Amen.
no lmao, it's Jeff Beck by far
Army veteran Jimi Hendrix 🇺🇸🎸🇺🇸
Thank you too all veterans for your service

101st airborne!
Wasn't he in the1st of the 509th in Germany
He was a Screaming Eagle 🦅 Then he taught the STRAT how to scream!!!!!
the screams are supposed to represent the suffering of soldiers in the vietnam war
@@jivelanec'est la souffrance du peuple pa des soldats, qu'ils crève ces connards
even with single coil pick ups he had that strat absolutely screaming
As only Mr. Hendrix could do
Being 101was maybe just one reason why his immortal versión was not too much frowned upon
The way he goes from the National Anthem to bombs and screams, then back to the National Anthem again, will always be a great reminder of the American governments true stars & stripes - warmongers!
💀As much as this is funny, it sadly is true.
He's actually playing the lyrics if you think about it. "And the rockets red glare...bombs bursting midair...". Absolutely genius.
If you pay attention to his face throughout the look of his concentration and total absorption. He is totally in the zone.
He's living the experience as if he was actually in a war zone. Living his imagination through his guitar.
TRUE GENIUS 🎸❤️❤️
@@TheBatugan77 And plays a short section of Taps as well.
Loved the way he played a few notes from Taps as well.
Jimi Hendrix is by far the best guitarist of all time.🇺🇲🎶
You had to believe Fender was loving every second of this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣
Nothing beats a Strat

Respect the classics man it's hendrix
Thats right man
Would you turn that disrespectful junk off?! 😂
I see what you did here. I salute you.
what a great guitarist !! Wish he was still among us !!
He is!
amogusඞඞඞ that's pretty susඞඞඞ
Jimi played this astonishing rendition 54 years ago today.
Now that's an anthem anyone would be proud of.
Hell yeah brother.
The bombs going off and children screaming really make me proud to be a American
Prime example of media illiteracy
@I_died_in_june_6 No they make you a coward.
@@67marlinsah yeah, not liking aerial bombing and kids dying makes you a coward, you gotta love the military propaganda machine
this anthem hasnt changed a bit, it was true then and its still true now.
One of the few recordings ever that makes your mouth drop, eyes cry and time stop.
By far my favorite guitarist of all time
Le plus grand moment de l'histoire du rock'n roll.
Love from Switzerland.

Saw Woodstock in cinema in England in 1969 first trip I was there man lol
Hendrix was a force of nature. Everyone else is just a guitar player.
Es verdad hoy hay buenos guitarristas jimi era un allien
🎸🇺🇸🎸
..WOW WOW WOW! ! ! ! MAN O MAN 0 MAN..THE FEELING AND REACTION OF THE CROWD THAT DAY HAD TO OF BEEN SPEECHLESS
I took a classical guitar class in High School and our teacher showed us this clip as part of a lesson on historic guitarists. My mind was blown
I was 9 years old living in Montreal when i saw that. I was hooked. I have lived through the best music in history now. I saw more than 50 concerts in the 70s..alone. unfu..king believable. Queen Elo Styx Santana.
My biggest regret is not saving my concert ticket stubs. 6 or 8 bucks to see Rare Earth or Skynyrd.
Love watching these videos, especially the shots where you can see the audience reaction to Jimi's performance. One of a kind.
The Guernica of Rock; Jimi for ever.
That is brilliant an analogy!!
Viva Vietnam.
After Woodstock regarding Hendrix rendition of the SSB music critic Al Aronowitz of the NY post wrote- " It was the most electrifying moment of Woodstock and it was probably the single greatest moment of the sixties"

Always the best guitarist in the world

He served in the Army he meant this

Army veteran Jimi Hendrix 🎸🇺🇸🎸🙏🏽
He only was in for 10 months then lied his way out by claiming he was gay😂😂 he’s a coward
@@jacksonhocuttwhere did you serve?
@@jeterthebulldog642 brother I’m in the Army right now
Jimi didn't actually perform until early Monday morning after the weekend of the Woodstock Festival. I was born exactly 8 days later.. 8-26-1969!
🎸🇺🇸🎸
This what we stand for man
1:58 Those air bombs dropping from a plane. That always amazes me.
That's LARRY LEE playing guitar behind him on stage with the fringe on his hat. Larry was Al Green and Kevan Tynes guitarist in the recording studio too. R.I.P.
That's right and Larry was just back home from serving in Vietnam.
GOAT solo.
Captures my feelings about the US during Nam and echoes through today. We can be better. ✌🏼
A perfect example of what you'd call "Out Of Sight" back then and even to this day, that is if you're a Rocker.
I was there!👏🏿🌈🦋💙
Yeah man! I can dig it!!
Don't forget. Jimi would have said groovy man.
A monster that came and went!
only to later have the birth of Eddie Van halen
Happy 4th Jimi🎉❤
Michael McLoughlin
I was there for this,. It was a great time to be alive,& at 17 I thought
it would last forever.
Mind blowing!!!!!💯
I was 16yo at the time, still shakes my soul !
When I seen the stones play, outside, 1981 to 72000 people and they closed the show with this recording it was priceless
There will never be another …that’s for sure.
This is the most passive aggressive performance of the national anthem ive ever heard in the best way possible😂
Nothing passive about this. Jimi played this though out 1969/1970 across the US, at times under threat if he did.
G. G. O. A. T.!!!!!!!!!!!
There will NEVER be another like Jimi. ❤❤❤❤
True 🎸😔🇺🇸
Such a good band
Fellow Screaming Eagle 🦅 right there 101st finest 💪🤘

*** JIMI WAS A GREAT GUITAR PLAYER !!! 😊
Great!💖

Understanding impact of pitch and timber of sound
Go Mr Hendrix 👍
This is the first public performance where he used the new UniVibe. Now we think of it as essential to his sound. It's pure whooshy swooshy deliciousness.
Love the sound of the univibe on Machine Gun as well.
Magician. A guitar never looked as natural as when held and played by Jimi. Never looked so much to be an extension of the player.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤perfection !!!!!! Le meilleur !!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of a kind should have liked to have seen him in person
He outshines all guitar 🎸 players

The God of all music 💜
He customized the cords to meet his style and now he's a legend and you know what they say about legends; they never die.
Absolutely beautiful

Jimmy etait fantastique! Un pur génie....
How did Hendrix bring the 1960s right on stage.Hendrix was musical god of the times all times.
