Jimi Hendrix (1973)
Director: Joe Boyd, John Head, Gary Weis
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Thanks mainly to the technical dexterity of producer/ director Joe Boyd, this succeeds in communicating a real sense of Hendrix via his music and his friends. There are amusing and enlightening appearances from Noel Redding, Clapton, Townshend, Jagger, Little Richard, and even Lou Reed. But more importantly, the music is for once really well chosen: amazing and formerly unseen things from Monterey, Isle of Wight, Woodstock, Fillmore East, and even the Marquee Club.Author: DP
