I attended this concert 2 weeks after graduating from high school in 1967. After the Jefferson Airplane set (a San Francisco favorite), people started walking out of the Fillmore. For those that stayed to hear this unknown artist, Jimi Hendrix; they were in for the thrill of their life. Jimi walked on stage quite humbly. Then, he plugged his guitar into a Marshall stack and opened with Purple Haze....the opening riff mesmerized everyone...there were no words to describe his musical expression on his guitar....He redefined the instrument and the psychedelic blues that became a genre of its' own.
