Jimi Hendrix – Machine Gun: Live At The Fillmore East 12/31/1969 (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
The New Year's Eve stand at the Fillmore East was more than a concert series; it was Hendrix remaking himself in real time, trading the Experience's psychedelic flash for something rawer and more rooted in Black American music. The title track alone, a sprawling meditation on the Vietnam War, remains one of the most visceral guitar performances ever committed to tape.
As the '60s came to a close, Jimi Hendrix pushed the boundaries of funk, rock and R&B with a brand new group, Band of Gypsys. Together with bassist Billy Cox and drummer Buddy Miles, Hendrix unveiled stunning, newly written material across four shows at the legendary Fillmore East in New York City. Machine Gun: The Fillmore East First Show 12/31/69 marks the first time Band of Gypsys' first show has ever been released in its entirety, newly mixed by Eddie Kramer from the original 1" eight-track masters and released on 2LP 180 gram vinyl.
