Forming the Jimi Hendrix Experience in London in 1966 with bassist Noel Redding and drummer Mitch Mitchell, Hendrix quickly established himself as a unique and electrifying performer. Although the original Experience lasted only a few years, their influence has continued to grow, with Hendrix's recordings and performances remaining hugely acclaimed and his legacy firmly established at the highest level of rock history.\u003cbr\u003eBy June 1969, the Jimi Hendrix Experience had become one of the world's biggest and most acclaimed rock acts. Following their breakthrough in Britain and the United States, the trio released three landmark albums, Are You Experienced (1967), Axis: Bold as Love (1967) and Electric Ladyland (1968), while their increasingly ambitious live performances attracted ever larger audiences. By this point, however, the original line-up was beginning to change, with Noel Redding having left the group and Hendrix increasingly looking towards new musical directions. The Newport Pop Festival appearance came during this transitional period, with Hendrix performing alongside drummer Mitch Mitchell and bassist Billy Cox.\u003cbr\u003eOn 20th June 1969, the Jimi Hendrix Experience headlined the Newport Pop Festival at the Devonshire Downs in Northridge, California. Captured here, the performance finds Hendrix and his band delivering a powerful set at a pivotal moment in his career, combining established Experience favourites with the expansive, improvisational approach that increasingly characterised his live work. The recording provides a fascinating document of Hendrix on stage during the final months of the Experience era, shortly before the formation of his expanded Band of Gypsys line-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1    Stone Free  6:52\u003cbr\u003e2    Are You Experienced\/Stone Free (Reprise)  7:35\u003cbr\u003e3    Sunshine Of Your Love  6:08\u003cbr\u003e4    Fire  3:44\u003cbr\u003e5    Hear My Train A Comin’  8:24\u003cbr\u003e6    Red House  7:25\u003cbr\u003e7    Foxy Lady  5:00\u003cbr\u003e8    Like A Rolling Stone  5:59\u003cbr\u003e9    Voodoo Child (Slight Return)  5:30\u003cbr\u003e10    Drum Solo  3:01\u003cbr\u003e11    Purple Haze  4:16\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"punk to funk heaven","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50764717261057,"sku":null,"price":12.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1837\/1115\/files\/UNCD088.jpg?v=1792145415","url":"https:\/\/punktofunkheaven.co.uk\/products\/jimi-hendrix-newport-pop-festival-compact-disc","provider":"punk to funk heaven","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
