Definitive Hendrix documentary. Great long live segments (albeit many that fans are likely to have seen before) and every interviewee is perfect in their own way. Quotes for days!
"Wooh! Wooh! Wooh! Get gone, he'd have that thing just rumpin' and tumpin' all up under my toes. At times, he used to make my big toe shoot up in my boot."
"I know when he saw me, it gave him confidence and great recompense of reward, my Lord!"
"And these old fuddy-duddy, rough-dried ain't-never-beens - you know, they ain't gonna give him a break."
"And I said, 'Acid?'"
"It would vibrate and shake to such a degree that I'd have to stand behind the columns, holding it up, whilst he f*ed it 'round the front."
"We lived in this scrum-dum apartment."
"Here we go again! I'm tired of people sayin' we rely on gimmicks. The world is nothin' but a gimmick. Wars, napalm bombs and all. People gettin' burned up on TV and it's nothin' but a big gimmick... Yes, we do." 4 years 1 month ago -
