About this album
Band Of Gypsys is a crucial live statement from Jimi Hendrix, marking a bold shift from psychedelic guitar heroics towards tighter, funkier, blues-driven improvisation. Recorded at New York’s Fillmore East and released in 1970, it features Hendrix with Billy Cox and Buddy Miles in a trio whose chemistry brought a harder groove to his sound. The set includes the monumental “Machine Gun”, often hailed as one of his greatest performances, alongside “Who Knows” and “Changes”. Released after The Jimi Hendrix Experience dissolved, the album helped redefine Hendrix’s legacy as an artist who could turn live performance into political, musical and emotional force.
