Yeah, it talks about Jimi, and how he experimented with the Band Of Gypsys to reach the Negro audience--Unity of soul. I think there was too much negativity with the Band Of Gypsys...there really wasn't much musicians in those days like Jimi--Soulfull. Miles Davis could surely qualify, among a few others. Off the top of my head...Marvin Gaye, B.B. King, John Lee Hooker...etc.
