An awesome offering from 1966 featuring Jimi Hendrix with his band, The Jimi Hendrix Experience playing together on stage. This photo was taken during Hendrix's TV debut on the "Ready Steady Go!" show just two months after the band's debut performance together. The band recorded "Hey Joe" at London's Rediffusion Studio for "Ready Steady Go!" It marked their big breakthrough as Hendrix took the world by storm. The "Hey Joe" single came out a few days later, then a Top of the Pops appearance, then suddenly Hendrix was everywhere.

 

Hendrix can be seen picking at his guitar which the left hander famously played upside down. Songwriter and bassist Noel Redding is strumming his bass while drummer Mitch Mitchell is keeping the beat for the group on his Premier drum kit. Measuring approximately 8 x 10" the photo has some rounded corners but overall image is not impacted.  Some yellow stamps from Pictorial Press LTD. out of London can be found on the verso.  Encapsulated Type 1 by PSA/DNA.
