This is weird how it sounds so much like a guitar...but definitely not as cool, I bet Hendrix would dig it. Check out the old lady right up front, she could have been at Woodstock.

Thanks for that, I loved Hendrix and got to see him live several times, the first was at the 67 Monterey pop concert. He was a great Bluesman IMO.:yes:

No question about that, I bet if I watch the film again I can definitely spot you, let's face it, you have a way of standing out in a crowd. One of my all time favorite bootlegs, which is not really a bootleg, is "Woke up this Morning and found Myself Dead". I always liked Hendrix when he was in smaller venues like this, Radio One sessions or even studio. Jim Morrison is out of his mind cursing and stoned but Hendrix is spot on playing his ass off to that small crowd.

I think hillaree was there as well.No, I spent three days there, I slept at the Monterey Junior collage football field with about 2,000 other people, they set up sheets between the goal post and make a stage so we had a light show put on by Wavy Gravy and the Merry Pranksters. The musicians came after the shows at the fair gounds shut down and played all night Like Bob Dylan, Janis and quite a few others while the Gypsy Jokers & Galloping Goose motorcycle clubs road around on the track surounding the football field on their MC all night. I was 16 and had done real LSD, (pharmaceutical Sandoz 25 was legal), but I would not smoke pot as it was illegal, it was a weekend I'll never forget.:icon_biggrin:

I had a broken left arm, I had broke it two weeks before High School let out and had a huge cast on that was painted day-glow red and green with the word LOVE across it and was hung by a guitar strap. I had broke my left arm 2" below left shoulder completely in half so the cast was big and very heavy to act as traction weight to keep everything aligned, this is also why I made the 130 mile trip to Monterey in a cage with three of my buds and not on my scoot. We each told our parents we were staying at each others house for the weekend then took off, that part of the road trip is another story in its self.:shhh:
When the WHO was on before Hendrix I was center stage, outside the fence in the back in the free area with a few hundred others, but if you look carefully and real fast can see a flash of me or I should say my day-glow cast in the movie.:icon_lol:

In watching Monterey again, and it's been a long time, I saw Paul Butterfield perform. In my opinion Sonny Boy Williamson was the best harp player ever but I'll tell you, PB is damn good. And the Blues Project was so far ahead of their time.

And the Blues Project was so far ahead of their time.Yea I like Butterfield along with Mike Bloomfield, but I'm a real big fan(40 yrs) of Charlie Musselwhite who plays in my area regularly and I have met on a few occasions. I was at this one, Gainey Vineyard in Santa Ynez which is about 40 mile from my place.:icon_biggrin:

I had to throw in one more of Charlie doing a song he wrote, with his daugther Layla Musselwhite singing and on guitar.

Excellent stuff, especially the number with his daughter was really pure. You just don't get that these days and I hope they collaborate more. It's guys like that who are known, maybe not on the level commercially as others but, by loyal followers and other musicians who keep the purity of the music going. They're not a "package" that needs to be sold, they do it for the sheer love of the music.
