THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE:
LIVE AT MONTEREY
Available October 16, 2007 on CD, LP and DVD
Forty years ago Jimi Hendrix returned to his native country and, in one fell swoop changed the musical
landscape for all time. It was the galvanizing, US debut performance of The Jimi Hendrix Experience at
The Monterey International Pop Festival that propelled Hendrix and his band mates, Mitch Mitchell and
Noel Redding, to the top ranks of international rock royalty. On October 16, for the first time ever,
The Jimi Hendrix Experience Live At Monterey will be released by Experience Hendrix/Geffen/UMe on DVD.
It's a remarkable visual and aural document that reconfirms what the Monterey audience bore witness
to on June 18, 1967: Hendrix's unbridled talent and flair for showmanship are unparalleled in the
annals of music.

The set of songs that the Jimi Hendrix Experience performed at Monterey was introduced by Brian Jones,
the Rolling Stones' guitarist whose presence at the festival amounted to a kind of benediction by an
acknowledged rock god. He knew full well who he was introducing as Hendrix had moved to London fewer
than nine months earlier and achieved icon status in the U.K. in very short order. His conquest of his
native land, though, would be achieved almost instantaneously at Monterey.
The Jimi Hendrix Experience Live At Monterey offers all existing film footage of that epochal performance
presented in its original sequence. The original 16mm camera reversal footage shot by D.A. Pennebaker's
Monterey Pop film crew has been transferred to high-definition specs and is presented in its original
theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The DVD soundtrack features new 5.1 surround and 2.0 stereo mixes by
Eddie Kramer, the engineer so closely associated with the Jimi Hendrix and his legacy, from the original
eight-track live recordings made at the concert by remote engineer Wally Heider.
Beyond the performance of the band's set, The Jimi Hendrix Experience Live At Monterey offers numerous
bonus features. A Second Look, a unique interactive feature allows the viewer to switch between multiple,
previously unseen camera angles to view several of the performances as never before. In addition,
American Landing, a new documentary that includes previously unreleased interviews with Mitchell and
Redding - and Jimi Hendrix, himself -- is included. There's also Music, Love and Flowers, an inside
look at the Monterey International Pop Festival with co-founder Lou Adler. Live performances of
"Stone Free" and "Like A Rolling Stone, the two earliest known unreleased Jimi Hendrix Experience
performances, shot February 25, 1967 at Chelmsford, England are also part of the package.

Voluminous liner notes by Mitch Mitchell and Hendrix scholar and Experience Hendrix's catalog development

November 21st in Japan. European regions will also see the simultaneous release of the film in the new HD-DVD format. All three were produced by Experience Hendrix CEO Janie Hendrix
