A long evening devoted only to jamming. Jimi was joined by bassist Billy Cox, organist Sharon Layne, an anonymous percussionist and a second guitarist known only as Sean.

Edward Smith: “... Most of the people I talked with, who were at the show, indicated that Jimi, sounded loud, but great... Some indicated Jimi had tuning problems (what else is new?). Apparently, when Jimi did his ‘splits’ routine with the guitar stroking (ala ‘Foxy Lady’) a whole group of sorority girls got up and walked out!”
