Due to the bad weather and other long delays, Jimi Hendrix didn’t take the stage until 9:00 AM Monday morning. A day after the event was supposed to be done, Hendrix had to play, but it was a performance that would have any Hendrix fan kicking themselves for missing it.
By the time Hendrix was set to play, much of the crowd had already left the festival. He didn’t really seem to care about it, so the hundreds of people who remained witnessed something incredible. Hendrix’s Star Spangled Banner solo is considered one of the greatest moments of the decade.
