Jimi Hendrix Experience: Electric Church

Live jimi hendrix is the best and there were not many cds made i dont think

If you are a Hendrix fan you’ll love this. Filmed in Atlanta, GA at Atlanta pop festival. It was the largest crowd he ever performed for.

I was thrilled to receive this dvd. There were performances that I had never seen before which was amazing to me. This festival took place in Byron, Georgia about 100 miles south of Atlanta on July 4. 1970. Jimi was just amazing. The camera work and lighting were criticized. The little town did not generate enough electricity so Jimi could hardly see the audience which was important to him. I loved the people of this town. The sheriff was so intelligent in the way that he handled things which was to leave everybody alone. The jail was so cute -- 2 cells and it looked like a museum piece. I found the lack of electricity to be a plus because Jimi was lit so well. I loved the camera work -- it concentrated on his face and hands and captured such an amazing experience. I could feel Jimi's energy and the intensity of his work. There are no gimicks to Jimi. It is all heart and soul and who could not appreciate that. He gave it everything that he had. His performance of Red House was amazing, as was "Hey Joe," (the song that got me interested in Jimi) "I live today," "Vodochile," was amazing and I want to add that "All Along the Watchtower," was like riding on a speeding train. Every song that he performed was so intense and beautiful. How sad to know that he had only about two months left to live. I have to mention that Jimi's philosophy was "peace, love and happiness." I have never heard of any violence associated with one of Jimi's festivals. He was an Angel and always will be.

I deducted one star because this blu-ray concert audio and video is not as good quality as I have come to expect from the media format. If you want to see what good blu-ray can do to old recordings, check out the Queen concert in Hungary. (blu-ray) Granted this concert was recorded 15 years earlier.

Only a 4 year career, he did things with his fingers that today's artists need electronics to recreate.

I do love a good documentary film and this is a good one. Just wish there was more Jimi himself and him playing his music than what there is....I mean c'mon doesn't anyone out there realize that if you have tons of music, interviews and documentary info they could always put it on 2 discs. However this DVD is a little over 3 hours long. That's a good start..right ! I became a fan when my best friends brother bought the first round of the "album" Are you experienced and I was about 12 or 13 when that album first ever came out Just something about him his style his look his sound I have always loved. I do recommend it I enjoyed the Hendrix "fix"

Amazing show, one of the best Hendrix films out there. The sound and video are excellent, fairly interesting documentary precedes the concert footage. The band is super tight, with Jimi really on top of his game here, pulling off lots of cool tricks and embellishments and sliding in some very sly riffs into old favourites. Spanish Castle Magic is absolutely stunning, as are his solos in Hey Joe, and there are some rarer numbers like Freedom and Straight Ahead. One thing I noticed is that Hendrix seemed a bit less than his usual jovial self- maybe the tuning problems caused by the extreme heat were getting to him; you can notice him tuning a lot while he is playing, more than usual. Very cool shots with fireworks going off behind him- really great stuff here all around and any fan will love it. Mitch and Billy are great- particularly Mitchell who is just on fire this show. Great mix by Eddie Kramer too.

If you saw the special on TV, you'll want this even more since it has Freedom and Red House on it (the TV show did not). Jimi seems to be having a good time and watching fireworks go off while he's playing is fantastic. It also makes him appear more human as he starts 'Watchtower' in the wrong key (but quickly corrects), doesn't have the words to 'Freedom' quite down yet as it was a new song at that time. If you's a jImi Hendrix fan this is a must to own. If you don't know who he was, but want to see a master musician get thi svideo you will not be dsiappointed. The video quality goes from decent to great to ok. Given the age of it and the circumstances, it's understandable. The sound is great and the backgound 'story' is good too.

Excellent documentary on Atlanta Pop Festival followed by entire Hendrix performance! Being a Hendrix Fan from way back, I really enjoyed his performance that included all my favourite songs!
