hendrix @ monterey on dvd

having released pert near every other video'ed j.h. performance imaginable (woodstock, fillmore east, berkeley, isle of wight, even the dick cavett show), experience hendrix are finally getting around to releasing a dvd of the 1967 'meercun debut of the greatest two-man band until the sex pistols (that'd be the experience at monterey). panned at the time by robert christgau as "psychedelic uncle tom," it remains, i think, the most focused hendrix show on film, altho the music is almost all adrenaline, without the depth it'd develop later. when i was a snotnose, this (along with live at leeds and get your ya-ya's out) defined for me what a live rockband was s'sposed to sound like. i remain in awe.
