That's awesome. I guess that's right before Hot Fun in the Summertime and Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin). They were the best band in the world in 1969. I wish he never ditched the band.

sorry, but i never got the whole Hendrix thing....for that time, the psychadelic era, i can see why. But to put him still as the greatest ever, has more to do because he died young, and was black. Just alot of feed back and distorted noise...i dont get it.

I always thought Sly and the Family Stone put on the best show at Woodstock.

I’d love to see their entire Woodstock performance beyond whats in the movie.
Ever hear the story why they didn’t get on the stage until 4 in the morning?? Evidently Sly had a tendency to say, “I”M NOT GOING ON STAGE!!” right before the show would start. He did this at Woodstock and they tried to talk him into getting on stage, for about 2 hours. Finally one of the shows producers threw him against the wall and threatened him if he didn’t get his ass on stage- this was about 3AM.

I wouldn’t be surprised. Was there a better band in the world in 1969?

Have you seen or heard the Wattstax release?
To: basalt
I am the same way, never got into the Hendrix mania, but a couple of songs stick with me. “All along the watchtower” and “Little Wing”. Stevie Ray Vaughn did a remake of Little wing that was awesome.
