Man this is a great set. Looking at his facial expressions, I wonder how many hits he had in him

Wow nobody responded to this thread???

I am amazed everytime I watch this DVD. I am so there in heart and spirit. Jimi's performance was a guitar player's dream, especially mine. Surrounded by friends and listeners even as they departed mud soaked and exhausted...the 'Band of Gypsies' didn't care they just pretty much jammed as they wanted to. We're so lucky to have footage of this monumental event captured forever in time for those of us who couldn't quite make it.

I feel the same way everytime I watch and listen to Jimi and The Experience play at Monterey. Now that set was totally on. It was fresh, new and the energy was high. My all time favorite jam on that set is "Like A Rolling Stone". Killer Strat through Fuzz Face and Marshall tone on that one...live, loud and groovy baby. :rockon: :)

Jimi's Woodstock and Monterey performances remain my personal HOLY GRAIL of live performances.

Watching the new special editions of both concerts through 5.1 surround sound gives me goosebumps all the time.

That was great Big_Rob:AOK:

What do you suspect he was doing when he was counting up the frets at the beginning of the second song? I suppose it was a joke but you never know.

Yes, Jimi's music affects me in heart and spirit too, every time I listen to it. It reaches me much deeper than most current artists do.

Dang, what a guitar player and artist!!

That video is a bit long to watch at work tho...
