Baton Rouge (Independence Hall Lakeshore Auditorium) : 30 juillet 1968


Setlist inconnue.

BATON ROUGE STATE-TIMES - by Ann Gilbert:

“Electrified sound bombarded the senses of some 3,000 young people at the two performances last night of the rock group, Jimi Hendrix Experience.
Independence Hall vibrated with the heavy and loud pounding rhythms of guitar and drums. A deafening experience it was as music and just plain noise were fed to the audience at a high decibel level. At times the performers seemed to be experimenting with their instruments, seeking new forms of raw sounds.
The tall, lanky star appeared garbed in black with an Afro-style hair- cut and twisted jerked and dropped into splits to emphasize his soul music. Evidently displeased with the electronic equipment on stage, Hendrix complained after each piece and even asked the waiting audience, ‘How do you stand all this noise?’ His eager audience rose with their applause and gave him victory signs, the meaning of which failed some of us.
Using a foot pedal to control his guitar’s primitive notes, Hendrix even played with his teeth, but the showman held his shocker for his last number. Known for his erotic gestures, he closed the show with movements in keeping with his reputation.
Hey Joe,’ and ‘Fox You [sic - Foxy Lady],’ recorded songs of Hendrix, were especially welcomed by the listeners. But in ‘Red House,’ a blues number, the guitarist was given freedom to display his ability on the guitar and his mournful, wailing voice without intense competition from drums and amplifiers”

Le guitariste Sonny Landreth se souvient de ce concert :
“Well he had a bad gig!," he replied. "I was like 16 years old, and he had a bad gig. The amps crashed, they stopped working. And he got up to the microphone and said, 'Don’t you ever buy a Sunn Amplifier.' They got everything working again, and then some idiot in the audience said something that ticked him off. So they played two shows and jumped in the car and flew outta town.
“And many, many, many years later I got to be friends with [Hendrix bassist] Noel Redding," added Landreth. "We played some gigs together, and I worked in the studio with him, and we stayed in touch. But he told me he remembered that gig! That they were terrified, they wanted to get outta there, 'cause that was back in the chitlin-circuit days, you know what I mean, with all the racial bullshit. So they hightailed it outta there.”
