isle of wight: who vs. hendrix

by the festival summer of '70, i believe, fortune had shifted in favor of the four ex-mods from shepherd's bush (see live at leeds). it's a tough call whether they or the stooges were the best band in the world at that particular moment (see the infamous cincinnati pop festival vid). poor jimi would be dead in a couple of weeks. while his band of gypsys / cry of love phase is prolly my favorite, musically, he sure seems _tired_ here. _you_ be the judge! (matt?)
