Woodstock - 1969-08-18 - Bethel, NY (SBD + AUD)

It’s our 4th and final day of music from Woodstock. On Monday morning, August 18, 1969, Jimi Hendrix played his first live gig since the breakup of The Experience in July of that year. He also turned in one the most well known performances in rock history when he played the Star Spangled Banner near the close of his set. Incredibly,less than 30,000 saw this performance, as it carried into Monday morning, by which point most of the half a million string had headed home.  Those of you following this blog know it was not the first time Jimi had played our national anthem, as it was included in several other concerts that year (see our Jimi post later this month for more details). This version of the Star Spangled Banner, however, played near the very end of a rock festival which symbolized the changes our country was going through in the late 60’s, became a lightning rod for controversy and debate. Exactly what message was Jimi trying to deliver? No one will ever know, but one thing is for certain, Jimi’s rendition is truly an iconic moment. By the way, this download includes 3 CDs of bonus material which  are no detailed above in the set list.
