BTW,
you can watch it any time you wish if you go to the "american masters" web site.
i had a few intermittent problems when streaming it but it worked with a little tweaking of the resolution levels.
the film shows the raw power and energy of his public appearances on stage.
they could have given a little more credit to his band who in my opinion were also amazing musicians- i loved the drummer.
I have heard 101 jazz guitarists who are incredible as well, and can play any chord and progression of notes with seemingly minimal effort. But Hendrix otoh would blow peoples' minds and came on the scene like a musical hurricane.
