Forty years ago Jimi Hendrix returned to his native country and, in one fell swoop changed the musical landscape for all time. It was the galvanizing, US debut performance of The Jimi Hendrix Experience at The Monterey International Pop Festival that propelled Hendrix and his band mates, Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding, to the top ranks of international rock royalty.
'Live At Monterey' is a remarkable visual and aural document that reconfirms what the Monterey audience bore witness to that evening: Hendrix's unbridled talent and flair for showmanship are unparalleled in the annals of music.
