While Editmania gets more ferocious, here’s a video in memory of Jimi Hendrix, who died this day in 1970. To paraphrase Fox Mulder: the guy’s been gone 42 years and he still hasn’t lost his edge.
And yes, this is Jesse Blackburn’s favorite Hendrix track, as Evan mentions in China Lake. It’s mine too.
This is my favorite Hendrix track, as well. I remember reading an interview with Bob Dylan sometime in the last year where he said that Hendrix’s version of song has influenced how he plays it live. It says a lot when a songwriter of Dylan’s stature adopts your treatment of his song has his own.
