This Day In Music History (10-23)
I couldn't tell you my favorite song, I know that Jimi Hendrix didn't like Purple Haze, he wrote a funny message about it, and one time at a concert, he almost felt forced to play Purple Haze, for an enchore.

Said Lenny Kravitz, "After listening to Machine Gun, I have to go and take a nap." Same concert, every single song is awesome, the Red House version of that is the best you're ever gonna hear. At the beginning of the concert, He plays "God Save The Queen". Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Spanish Castle Magic. All Along The Watchtower. Machine Gun (of course). Lover Man (awesome...Hear he comes, I said. Here comes your lover man), also taken off of "Rock Me Baby" from his earlier days. Freedom. Foxey Lady. Message To Love (probably his best song). EZY Ryder (better than Message To Love). Purple Haze. Voodoo Child (Slight Return) - Isle of Wight version is my favorite version of this song/He ends the song beautifully. Last song on the DVD/CD, produced by Janie Hendrix and John McDermott, is In From The Storm.
All of the stuff he was working on when he died (that can be found on The First Rays Of New Rising Sun CD), and is better than everything most people have heard. The Hendrix family albums are starting to bring justice to his music.
