Jerry _____ I was there for their concert. We were BLOWN away by Hendrix! A night I’ll never forget!

Jerry _____ Now that I’ve got a moment to elaborate on the concert... My buddy Chris and I were about 15 years old at the time (we had recently formed a garage band). This was our very first concert, and everyone was in a fever pitch waiting for the Monkees. When Hendrix and the Experience took the stage, we were totally bummed out - and yes, people were booing. Hendrix approached the mic, and in the most gentle and delicate voice, did a two second sound test. Then all at once... he struck a chord, and the earth literally quaked. We couldn’t breath. Hendrix ripped into ‘Wild Thing’ and it was as if we witnessed the birth of fire. Rock and Roll would never be the same. As we walked home, we couldn’t stop talking about the opening act - and I suggested to my friend that he needs to learn to play the guitar like THAT. It was much later, after Hendrix skyrocketed, that we realized that he was that genius who swept us away that faithful night.

omg ;_;

7 years ago my brother passed away. I found this album queued up on his computer and have carried a copy around with my ever since, though I've have never had the guts to listen to it. Tonight as I worked a song played randomly through my headphones. I went to see who it was and found that it was the same album I've been packing around all these years. Thanks for allowing me to share a new experience with my brother. I miss him.

I have a question for Fred. Do you remember my son Barry Martin? You guys were friends back in the mid 90s. He had an apartment in Gaston County, probably in Gastonia NC, and you crashed on his couch before. I don't know if you heard about his death in 1999 but he was killed in a car accident. I wish he was around today to see your success. I am Barry's mother, Debbie Zimmerman. Keep Rollin, Rollin, Rollin! Bless up!

i was in thailand a few years ago, and in one of the go gos there a few of the girls did kind of a retro dance thing. It was fantastic. I swear if we opened a club that did pure retro we would pack the place. 60s gogo, cage dancers. Not vulgar, but just pure let it loose dancing. Fasions of the 60s and early 70s. miniskirts etc. The gal in purple here did it just fine

Deborah Walley, born 1941, died 2001.cancer. RIP

If Youtube had existed in high school these would have been the genesis of so many terrible short stories.

I remember when this came out in the 90's. I still listen to this song till this day brings back memories.

This song hits differently when you're in quarantine.

Back in the 80s I worked in a factory for a while, helping to pack product and get it on pallets for the forklifts. It was a good job for a teenager. One of the assembly line mechanics and I became good friends and one day this song came on the radio. I asked him who it was and said "Argent". A couple weeks later he was killed on his motorcycle, and this song always brings him to mind even now. .

If you see this Lilly, I miss you and I can't stop thinking about you. I'm sorry for ending our relationship over an idiotic reason. I really need some closure but I'm just not brave enough to text you because I'm afraid you'll make fun of me. Even though you're not that type of person. I really miss you, I'm sorry that I was a horrible boyfriend.

reading this wore out my eyebrows

In college I was a night watchman in a warehouse overnight and would hook up the PA system to echo Klaus throughout the building especially on starlit nights making my rounds, listening, and gazing at the stars through the skylights. What a job... what an artist

There was once a time, before the internet, when people could vanish from your life forever and you relied on music like this to fill the void they left...

(EBTG - "Missing")

wow that's great

on a very tangentially related note, the other day I got to see my wife's dad (Lebanese, grew up in Senegal) reminisce with his siblings about "the golden age of Dakkar" in the 60's and it hit home to me how many different nostalgias there are spread around the world.
