Winterland

0 - Default Title
Description
Four CD box set from the Rock icon. On Thursday, October 10th, 1968, Jimi Hendrix walked onstage with his Experience, bassist Noel Redding and drummer Mitch Mitchell, for the opening set of a long weekend at Winterland in San Francisco. The trio would play six sold-out shows over three nights at the 5400-capacity hall. Throughout the run, Hendrix would rotate several different legendary songs through his set lists. Hendrix played with a volume and advanced ferocity that stressed even the best technology available to him, but the tapes were shelved, literally for decades. Hendrix's October '68 shows in San Francisco were among the best he ever played with the Experience, and this collection is the evidence. Discs 1 through 3 feature multiple heated explorations of songs from all over their repertoire up to that point. The fourth disc features further magic like the way Hendrix's glowing feedback ring and Mitchell's free-form thunder gradually resolve into the seductive march and invitation of 'Are You Experienced?'.
