I love me some SRV, but it's hard to argue against Jimi being the best Blues guitarist ever.

That show is reckoned to be one of the best Hendrix ever gave. The rumor is that Hendrix asked Bill Graham what he thought after he played the first set, and Graham was less than enthusiastic.
Yep, for me Jimi is the one. When it comes to electric blues anyway. He bends the genre to himself rather than vice versa.

I think it was the first New Year's Eve show that Bill Graham was displeased with. He seemed to feel Jimi was showboating rather than playing. Nonetheless the second shows on both nights are IMO stronger than the first ones, at least as heard on recordings. The first New Year's Day show did feature that performance of Machine Gun along with Who Knows from the original Band Of Gypsys album. -Dave-
