"Top Of The Pops" (BBC, Londres) : 24 août 1967

Enregistrement de Top Of The Pop (émission diffusée sur la BBC 1) : 24 août 1967


Titre :
- Burning Of The Midnight Lamp



Jimi joue sur une Fender Jaguar (cordes inversées mais non branchée...)

Citation :

chimichunga a dit : The guitar is not even plugged in and is still strung right-handed! but Jimi's vocal was sung live. There is no survivng film or soundboard, just still photos, and a home audio recording from the original broadcast in quite poor quality.

DISC & MUSIC ECHO by David Hughes:

“There [Top of the Pops 24 August] was Peter Murray, cool, calm and confident, announcing after a great build-up – ‘the fantastic Jimi Hendrix Experience’. A slight pause, and then out came the familiar opening chords of...’The House That Jack Built!’ (Alan Price). Meanwhile cameramen, apparently unperturbed, carried on happily with the Hendrix camera routine, while Jimi looked on amazedly, fiddling with his guitar and finally muttering: ‘I don’t know the words to that one, man.’ Back to a rather off-guard and less calm Peter, a few hasty words and the position was rectified. Alan Price couldn’t have cared less: ‘I thought it was all very funny - after all, I got an extra plug for nothing!’ But Jimi Hendrix was a less happy man:... ‘ Burning The Midnight Lamp’ is difficult enough as it as and I was all cued up ready to say the words nice and clear. This really threw me - mass confusion, man!”
