I think that Trigger Hippy album is going to come out also. I grabbed some shows from this recent tour - but I have not listened to them yet. I thought that was a trip they got Betty to work with them.

I'm sure you can find on Amazon or some place for next to nothing.

The place is probably mentioned in his book. I do recall he talks about playing in bars around where he lived.

I prefer Buddy on Machine Gun and probably most of those Band of Gypsies songs, but overall, I prefer Mitch. I think in Noel's book he talks about how he just happened to be in the right place at the right time. And - he had an afro hairstyle. I think he says he never played bass before that day. A lot of bass from Bold As Love/Electric Ladyland was actually overdubbed by Jimi. Or so I have read. Oddly enough, Noel was one the people who tried out for the Stones after Bill left.

It's odd to think that Billy Cox is the only left now. I suppose I am disrespecting Noel a bit, but I prefer the Hendrix/Cox/Mitchell line-up. That's another sad book to read - Are You Experienced?...(Noel's book).

I use to watch that on videotape with a friend of mine back in the early 90s. One of my favorite pieces of Jimi's music is Hey Baby (New Rising Sun.) There are two versions from that film. One with the Strat, and one with the Flying V. I prefer the Flying V version. I recall we use to notice there was something funky about Mitch's drums - film to audio sync. It was not until several years later that I learned that he had to redo all his drums parts in the studio.

I recall receiving that party due to the fact the shithead mailman left it at the bottom of the stairwell that led up to my place at the time. It's amazing someone did not step on it, or grab it. I also got The Cry of Love/Rainbow Bridge/War Heroes/Loose Ends/Crash Landing/Midnight Lightening by way of Ebay.

And his British equivalent - Chris Welch. You can see a lot more interviews (including Eric and Pete) in the film I mentioned above. It's on DVD now. I recall with some joy when I was able to get the original soundtrack on vinyl some years ago - by way of Ebay.

I watched about half of the new documentary. It seemed to me to be an updated version of A Film About Jimi Hendrix (1973). Which is probably my favorite Hendrix bio film. I noticed they left out Leon (Jimi's real brother). If you want to read about his not so pleasant upbringing, check out a book called Room Full of Mirrors (Charles Cross). I think there were a few things I had not seen before. Such as that psychedelic painted house they were traipsing around in. I suppose I will watch the rest of it online at some point.

You should check out Carl And The Passions "So Tough"/Holland/The Beach Boys In Concert.

I still owe you that photo.

It took me a while to get the MFER to work - but I just put the almanac in my Nook.

Speaking of live stuff:

It must be. I thought that song went on and on - on the album version also.

He's listed in the album credits, isn't he? (That most people have never heard - as it plays at the end during the credits.)

If you end up getting them all - don't forget Another View and VU, plus the boxset. I have the Fully Loaded edition of Loaded that came out in 1997. I think there have been other re-issues since then. Of course - Loaded is a different animal than The Velvet Underground & Nico, White Light/White Heat, and The Velvet Underground. The only solo album of Lou's I ever got was New Sensations (1984). I don't recall anyone listening to him or The Velvet Underground when I was a growing up. I don't know how I ended up buying that album. I do recall getting into the band (VU) in 1985. I think someo

It would be nice to see that footage where they are sitting around playing acoustically.

I think The Notorious C.H.O. is the only comedy special of hers I can recall watching.

I use to watch her show All American Girl (1994-1995).

I recall a bunch of mullet hessians getting rather upset he played on a MJ album. I didn't really listen to it yet.

Yea - I am not buying the new album. It will be the first time I have passed on a new PJ album. It's cool to see them doing Leaving Here. That must be due to Eddie's love of The Who. The Who - Leaving Here

Fun fact: I was remembering hearing Under A Blood Red Sky back in the day and wondering why Alan Gratzer (REO Speedwagon drummer) was playing in a new wave band. I misunderstood young Bono when he was saying the band members names.

By way of Rolling Stone:

They must have got some tapes from Mountain Girl. That must be who Dave was talking about when he briefly mentioned acquiring tapes recently. According To Rolling Stone:
