Jimi Hendrix just called me.

Actually, his secretary. I pre-ordered the "Isle of Fenharm" CD from the Hendrix Family and they called to make sure they had the correct shipping.
It's set for release December 13.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live At The Isle Of Fehmarn marks the eighth release in Dagger Recordsâ?? popular bootleg-style recording series. This historically significant album features The Jimi Hendrix Experienceâ??s final live performance on September 6, 1970 during the Love & Peace Festival held on the Isle Of Fehmarn in Germany.

Originally slated to perform on September 5th, The Experienceâ??s appearance at the festival was delayed by frequent rain storms that plagued the previous days shows. Having just completed a series of six concerts in six days including headlining shows at both the Isle Of Wight (August 30) and Berlin (September 4), the extra day of rest would serve the group well.

By the time The Experience took to the stage on September 6, audience tensions were guarded following a series of fights between German bikers, that had escalated in ferocity, and included the festival Box Office being robbed at gun point and Jimi Hendrixâ??s own road manager, Gerry Stickells being attacked. Depsite these problems, The Experience delivered an enthusiastic hour-plus performance which saw Jimi lead the trio through a series of songs encompassing all of the different periods of the groupâ??s existence.

Jimi's Isle Of Fehmarn performance has been widely bootlegged over the last 35 years yet it was never professionally recorded. Amateur recordings made from the audience by fans have served as the only known documentation of this historic concert until now. As the eighth entry in this popular 'bootleg' series, Dagger presents a newly discovered recording made by the festival's promoters. Unbeknownst to Hendrix, the promoters captured the group's entire performance by feeding two overhead stage microphones into a consumer grade Revox reel-to-reel tape machine located off to the side of the stage. The resulting document, rough hewn and unmixed, is clear and not unlike the amateur audience recording featured on the initial Dagger offering Live At The Oakland Coliseum.

In addition to â??Killing Floor,â?� Live At The Isle Of Fehmarn also features â??Spanish Castle Magic,â?� â??All Along The Watchtower,â?� â??Hey Joe,â?� â??Message To Love,â?� â??Hey Baby (New Rising Sun),â?� â??Foxey Lady,â?� â??Red House,â?� â??Ezy Ryder,â?� â??Freedom,â?� â??Room Full Of Mirrors,â?� â??Purple Haze,â?� and a particularly memorable rendition of â??Voodoo Child (Slight Return).â?�

Thanks, Mr. D, I didn't read it until I posted it. I have a bootleg rendition and I can't wait to hear it directly from the mics. I posted a thread about this concert before. There's an amazing guitar bridge in Freedom.

You know, I know what you're implying. Jimi Hendrix was more into Herb than Acid, but Arthur & Albert Allen (renamed to show their roots, like Muhammed Ali was, I forgot what it was called) said people would be trippin' off one hit and Jimi would just sit there and pop one, look around, then pop another, they said it was unreal, but I think I know where he's coming from because I didn't trip off of sugar cubes and straight drops after a Brain Injury. That's another story.

You should get to know Jimi Hendrix, he wasn't the "druggie" that people call him.

[Joy.Discovery]

EDIT: only posted because i am painfully bored

A passage from "A Star In Life: Jimi Hendrix, Legend for Eternity"

In January 1968, Jimi smashed up Mitch's room at the Phalen Hotel in Sweden. Overturned chairs, curtains torn, blood everywhere; the only thing still working was the telephone. This whole incident was caused by Jimi drinking too much and he was charged with criminal damage. It was ironic that his consumption of LSD and cannabis never affected him as much as alcohol, which could send him off his head and bring out the worst in him.
