Jimi lights another candle, it’s 4am.
He lights up a cigarette and plugs in.
The vibe lives on, in all the truth and love.
He’s still playing, all along the watchtower.

Jimi Hendrix's Electrifying "Machine Gun" Performance at Fillmore East New York, NY— On the vibrant nights marking the transition from 1969 to 1970, Jimi Hendrix and the Band of Gypsys transformed the Fillmore East into a sonic wonderland. Their unforgettable performance featured "Machine Gun," a track that has since become a cornerstone of rock history. A Musical Masterpiece The January 1 rendition of "Machine Gun" vividly captured the chaos and emotion of the Vietnam War era. Hendrix's guitar mastery was on full display as he mimicked the sounds of gunfire and explosions, creating a visceral experience that left audiences in awe. Legendary promoter Bill Graham described it as "the single greatest electric guitar performance in rock history." Technical Brilliance Hendrix's innovative use of effects, including the UniVibe and wah-wah, along with his groundbreaking whammy-bar techniques, showcased his unparalleled technical prowess. These elements converged to produce an otherworldly sound that resonated deeply with listeners, further cementing his status as a musical genius. Trivia - The December 31 debut of "Machine Gun" was released in 2016, featuring previously unheard tracks that delighted fans and historians alike. - Contrary to popular myth, Hendrix focused on musicianship rather than showmanship during the January 1 set, following feedback from Bill Graham. - In 2023, colorized footage of the January 1 performance surfaced, reigniting interest and appreciation for Hendrix's extraordinary talent. Despite the brief existence of the Band of Gypsys, their impact was profound. Hendrix's shift toward funk-blues during these performances left an enduring legacy, with "Machine Gun”standing as a powerful testament to his artistic brilliance. My thoughts, Jimi was free, just loving and playing his guitar, what a beautiful man he was.
