Show[]

Start of show: "Well, just wait and see what I do at the Reading Festival this year. Ten years ago today, according to the Illustrated Rock Almanac, Paul McCartney flew to America for Jane Asher's 21^st birthday party in Denver, Colorado. Today, I'm back from my holiday in St. Lucia, sunburned and rested, and tonight we have 57 minutes and 25 seconds of music that the original Jimi Hendrix Experience recorded for such BBC programmes as Saturday Club and Top Gear towards the end of the 1960s."
There are now four files available covering almost all of this show: however, the combined timing implies there may still be a gap between Peel's show intro and the Clash track, which suggests more music was not recorded by either of the two tapers.

Jimi Hendrix Experience, #1 (rpt). Recorded 1967-10-06. Two further tracks, including a jam with Stevie Wonder, not TX in this show.
Jimi Hendrix Experience, #2 (rpt). Recorded 1967-12-15. One track not TX in this show.
Jimi Hendrix Experience, World Service Rhythm & Blues Session (rpt). Recorded 1967-10-17, first TX 1967-11-13. ^[1]
Jimi Hendrix Experience, Light Programme Saturday Club Session (rpt). Recorded 1967-02-13, first TX 1967-02-18. ^[2]
