Band of Gypsys was the only live recording authorized by Jimi Hendrix before
his death. It was recorded and released in order to get Hendrix out from
under a contractual obligation that had been hanging over his head for a couple
years. Helping him out were longtime friends Billy Cox on bass and Buddy Miles
on the drums because the Experience had broken up in June of 1969, following
a show in Denver. This rhythm section was vastly different from the Experience.
Buddy Miles was an earthy, funky drummer in direct contrast to the busy, jazzy
leanings of Mitch Mitchell. Noel Redding was not really a bass player at all
but a converted guitar player who was hired in large part because Hendrix liked
his hair! These new surroundings pushed Hendrix to new creative heights. Along
with this new rhythm section, Hendrix took these shows as an opportunity to
showcase much of the new material he had been working on. The music was a
seamless melding of rock, funk, and R&B, and tunes like "Message to Love" and
"Power to Love" showed a new lyrical direction as well. Although he could be
an erratic live performer, for these shows, Hendrix was on -- perhaps his finest
performances. His playing was focused and precise. In fact, for most of the
set, Hendrix stood motionless, a far cry from the stage antics that helped
establish his reputation as a performer. Equipment problems had plagued him
in past live shows as well, but everything was perfect for the Fillmore shows.
His absolute mastery of his guitar and effects is even more amazing considering
that this was the first time he used the Fuzz Face, wah-wah pedal, Univibe,
and Octavia pedals on-stage together. The guitar tones he gets on "Who Knows"
and "Power to Love" are powerful and intense, but nowhere is his absolute control
more evident than on "Machine Gun," where Hendrix conjures bombs, guns, and
other sounds of war from his guitar, all within the context of a coherent musical
statement. The solo on "Machine Gun" totally rewrote the book on what a man
could do with an electric guitar and is arguably the most groundbreaking and
devastating guitar solo ever. These live versions of "Message to Love" and
"Power to Love" are far better than the jigsaw puzzle studio versions that
were released posthumously. Two Buddy Miles compositions are also included,
but the show belongs to Jimi all the way. Band of Gypsys is not only an important
part of the Hendrix legacy, but one of the greatest live albums ever.
