  QUOTE " At The Royal Albert Hall, February 24, 1969

THE PERFORMERS: Jimi Hendrix (guitar, vocals) / Noel Redding (bass) / Mitch Mitchell (drums) / Dave Mason (guitar) / Chris Wood (flute) / Kwasi 'Rocky' Dzidzournu (bongos)

The performance at the Royal Albert Hall lasted about 45 minutes but was absolutely overwhelming anyway because it was so fresh, spontaneous and innovative. By 1969 the initial coherence and joy of playing together had dwindled to a noticable degree in the "Experience." It was in part due to personal problems between Jimi and bassist Noel Redding (whose musical tastes were never fully in harmony with Jimi's but more limited to typical 60's Brit Pop). The main problem however was the way the management handled the Experience and forced them to constant touring while Jimi wanted to devote more time to creating new music in the studio and by getting new inspiration through jamming with other musicians from different backgrounds. So his frustration grew and the drug use along with it. That frustration was evident in many live performances from early 1969 onwards. However this performance at the Royal Albert Hall was clearly one of the better - maybe one of the best shows - of 1969. Jimi's playing had developed a lot since the start of the Experience and his singing too was very strong and confident in this show. This show was highlighted by an unusual quantity of high class blues performances, including a stellar version of "Bleeding Heart" never filmed anywhere else, great versions of "Red House" and "Hear My Train A'Comin'", a fine lyrical "Little Wing", great psychedelic rock songs, especially "I Don't Live Today" and "Voodoo Child S.R." and a successful jam with parts of Traffic (especially Chris Wood on flute) on "Room Full Of Mirrors", also not filmed anywhere else. So this is a successful and important Hendrix show. " UNQUOTE

FOR BIDDERS OUTSIDE UK THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT...  non uk bidders please read my notes about international postage below.....returns policy only applies to UK outside of UK buyer has to cover the return postage! FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT due to ebays revised " buyer " protection policy even more sellers will start to refuse to sell internationally. I however will still sell internationally but i reserve the right to not to complete any international transaction if the buyer has any bad or witheld feedback or for any other reason that I choose and this is especially so for items that sell for near to GBP 150 or higher. So if you are an international bidder and win one of my auctions and then find I have completed the transaction elsewhere this will be because the new ebay/paypal policy now makes it almost impossible for sellers to sell safely overseas, thank you

FOR BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK THIS IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT...   I have recently been the victim of serveral spurious bids from several different members (usually based in the Russian Federation). Please note that if you win any of my items and have zero feedback I will ask you for immediate payment or for you to email and immediately confirm that you were a genuine bidder. Failiure to meet either of those critiera will result in the item being  offered to the next highest bidder without further delay. thank you.

DOMESTIC UK DISPATCH WILL BE VIA RECORDED/SIGNED FOR DELIVERY  TO PREVENT FRAUDULANT CLAIMS OF NON RECEIPT ! INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE SEE MY NOTES BELOW 

 

 (Please note that whilst I try to endeavour to adhere to strict RC gradings I will never describe ANYTHING AS MINT even when I think it to be so. As far as I am concerned any secondhand item by definition cannot be mint. However if I believe an item to be Mint  I will instead either use the terms Near Mint, mint minus, or in archive or vault condition. When I use these terms you know that in my opinion this is in effect a de-facto Mint grade )

 

INSURANCE INCLUDED IN P&P PRICE DEPENDING ON FINAL SALE VALUE...

Dont forget to take a look at my other items. Please feel free to contact me with any queries you may have.

                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ONLY DO A COUPLE OF RUNS A WEEK TO THE POST OFFICE BUT MY ITEMS ARE ALWAYS DISPATCHED WELL WITHIN ONE CALENDAR WEEK OF PAYMENT BEING RECEIVED. I APOLOGISE IN ADVANCE TO THOSE BUYERS WHO SEEM TO EXPECT THEIR ITEM TO ARRIVE THE NEXT DAY, IF YOU WANT TO CHECK WHEN AN ITEM WAS SENT JUST PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND I WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO TELL YOU!! (SOME PEOPLE DO MAKE YOU LAUGH, FOR ITEMS I BUY I ONLY NORMALLY GET CONCERNED AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND EVEN AFTER THAT THEN ONLY POLIETELY ENQUIRE IF AND WHEN THE ITEM WAS SENT).

                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PAYMENTS BY PAYPAL ARE PREFERRED BUT I ALSO ACCEPT OTHER METHODS. I ALSO POST WORLDWIDE (PLS APPLY FOR RATES) BUT DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A DISREPUTABLE BUYER IN JAPAN (EBAY WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO NAME THEM) , FOR ALL PAYMENTS MADE VIA PAYPAL THE ITEM WILL ONLY BE SENT BOTH TO THE UK AND WORLDWIDE BY RECORDED OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR DELIVERY. THIS IS TO ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY ATTEMPT TO CLAIM BACK THE PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL EVEN AFTER ACTUALLY HAVING RECEIVED THE ITEM.

 

THIS OBVIOUSLY HAS HAD THE RESULT OF INCREASING MY COSTS FOR POSTING AND PACKING AND I AM VERY SORRY FOR THIS BUT PAYPAL OFFER NO PROTECTION FOR SELLERS UNLESS THERE IS PROOF OF DELIVERY!! PROOF OF POSTING WOULD SEEM INSUFFICIENT TO THEM AND I HAVE FOUND THIS OUT THE HARD WAY..

 

DUE TO THE BEHAVIOUR OF THIS SAME BUYER PAYPAL PAYMENTS WILL ALSO NOT BE ACCEPTED FROM BUYERS WHO DO NOT ALLOW THEIR FEEDBACK TO BE READ, 

 

COST VIA INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR MAIL HAS RECENTLY BEEN INCREASED BY THE UK POST OFFICE . ANY ADDITIONAL LP'S SENT VIA COMBINED POSTAGE WILL USALLY BE AROUND AN ADDITION G 2.00 PER LP
