Hendrix's disastrous 1970 Band of Gyspys gig at MSG The aborted 1/70 BOG show at MSG is one if the strangest chapters in Jimi history. Exactly what went down is shrouded in mystery. All we know for certain is Jimi's condition was dubious and after two songs he refused to continue closing the BOG. Complete recording of show:

I'm a huge Jimi fan and never knew of this mess!
He sounded great first like 10 minutes.. but as it went on he sounded so distant and confused , his playing is still top notch but yes... he was off here. Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

By this time Mike Jeffrey had really sunk his claws into Jimi. He wanted to control him and his decisions.
Jeffrey knew Jimi was worth a lot to him (finance wise) messed up or even dead. | |
