The


Pete Townsend, 2007

There was a little dispute behind the scenes, who should play first, The Who or Jimi Hendrix. I'm not that deep into pop-music to comments on this discussion, but Jimi just blew them from the stage by burning his Stratocaster and leaving the audience in shock and awe. You just look for yourself.

June 18th, 1967, Monterey International Pop Festival, California;
- The Who (Happy Jack)
- Jimi Hendrix (Wild Thing)
- Frank Sinatra (Strangers in the Night)

The story goes that Frank Zappa got hold of Jimi's Stratocaster and had it restored. Ah, so great legends.

Enjoy
