Jimi, live in '70



The solo is from "Stone Free" Jan 1, 1970 Filmore East with Billy Cox on Bass and Buddy Miles on Drums/backing Vocals. There is no video of it so some guy smartly dubbed it into the 1969 New Port Jazz Festival. Matches up decently.

Just listen to Jimi wail. An artist at his peak.

Speaking of wailing, check out this gnarly Prince guitar solo from '93. Gets good around 1:39 onward. After decades of genre mashing, he lays out an unbelievably cool session here.
