I googled it: https://www.google.com/search?q=hen...AG3BJIBAzQuMpgBAKABAcgBCMABAQ&sclient=gws-wizHendrix's Band of Gypsies is by far, my favorite Hendrix album, which is why I love this video. The funny thing about that album is, he recorded a live album just to fulfill a contractual obligation. That's why there are no on-stage antics... no showboating, just playing and singing the best he could while in front of an audience.
I wonder if there's a video of the entire concert.
I did that Google search and it turns out that there's a documentary about the Band of Gypsies with more rare footage of Hendrix's 1970's Fillmore concerts. I'm going to look into that later.I googled it: https://www.google.com/search?q=hen...AG3BJIBAzQuMpgBAKABAcgBCMABAQ&sclient=gws-wiz
Not sure if any of the later links are complete versions and don't have time to check today. If you find any, please let us know! It seems there are a lot of 'home-mixes,' at least.
I'm glad that I got to watch it, then. I have heard that some hate-crime videos are left up for prolonged periods unless someone complains. Interesting priorities, eh?Interesting how fast youtube deleted the link I posted for apparent copyright issues they apparently hadn't noticed until forum members here suddenly began watching it. The below is the same live Royal Albert Hall recording but without the video, just the very clean audio track.
Also, the bridge is flatter on a fiddle.Hendrix was before my time. I heard he was a pretty good guitarist. I played the violin for almost 30 years and then took up playing the fiddle.
Do you know the difference between a violin and a fiddle? Give up?
It’s ok to spill beer on a fiddle. Go ahead. You can laugh.
Try this link. It's the full documentary, so you'll need to sift through all the interviews to find the concert footage.
True, but I have a Stentor, so it’s fairly easy. I was able to buy a really decent used Cecilia at the convention this past weekend. I had a really nice Stentor years ago, but I had it stolen and never replaced it. Do you play? I don’t play very much anymore.Also, the bridge is flatter on a fiddle.
I play guitar and used to play in some bluegrass jams with fiddle players and banjo players. It was a lot of fun. It's been probably ten years since I did that.True, but I have a Stentor, so it’s fairly easy. I was able to buy a really decent used Cecilia at the convention this past weekend.

Whoops. Off topic. My bad. I’m outta’ here.

" I heard he was a pretty good guitarist." --- He was a creative genius, in my opinion. It wasn't what he played, but the vast multitude of techniques he mastered. You could turn off the audio and still find the performance fascinating (-:Hendrix was before my time. I heard he was a pretty good guitarist.
