The original Jimi Hendrix Experience.

Hendrix has experimented with a line-up of a larger band known as Gypsy Sun and Rainbows for the Woodstock concert in August 1969 but will return to the trio format with the Band of Gypsys. But in 1970, Hendrix Band of Gypsys was dissolved - was this because of the desire of Michael Jeffery (manager now that Jimi) the reform experience of the maternal line-ups, but as Trixie Sullivan, assistant Jeffery, testified, Jimi did exactly as he feels Jeffery music and just handle the business side, as usual. In addition, according Gypsys bassist Billy Cox, a trio of all-black power, particularly to help point the outstanding bonds to Hendrix Ed Chalpin by recording a live LP. Jeffery called Redding and Mitchell Feel reform. Both have agreed to participate in what appears to be a manufacturer of large tour money, Mitchell and Redding could use the cash, and the tower will also get Jamie to financial problems when he was in part due to Construction of Electric Lady Studios. Hendrix is open to have Mitchell join again, but was reluctant to return home to Redding.
In early February 1970, it appears that the original experiment reformed. Manager Michael Jeffery and even an interview with Rolling Stone magazine to announce the return of the group, which was published on March 19, 1970 in Rolling Stone that JH: (. And included in Guitar Player magazine five years after the death of Jimi Hendrix) late start might While the interviews suggest that the old wounds healed and the future looks promising for the experience, it is far from the truth. Redding waited weeks to hear back on training for the upcoming tour when he finally spoke with Mitchell's girlfriend only to discover he was replaced by Billy Cox. Before you begin, Jimi "called Cry of Love Tour, because that is what it is" in an interview, is the only name mentioned that before the posthumous name LP (1971), and the group itself itself is always called in all advertisements, articles, promotion, booking, introductions, etc. "The Jimi Hendrix Experience" or simply "Jimi Hendrix". Thus, after nearly ten months break (during which he only played six dates) that "the Jimi Hendrix Experience" hit the road for one last tour. Jimi estimated that the group should remain in America and the record for the next album, while Mike Jefferey want to tour Europe. Band Together for Europe and the tour was a bad decision early. Hendrix cold, do not pause, and still affected by climate change. His contempt for the financial management and stress accumulated, and on foot European Hendrix was obviously not happy and are not eligible for the tour. Mitchell said that Hendrix did not even make his checks before show.
During this period, before the festival, the Isle of Wight, Jimi spoke to his friend Richie Havens on the problem. Havens recalls: "He was very unhappy, very depressed, and I ask for help" I have a real bad time with my manager and lawyer of Jimi said: "They killed me. Everything is against me and it is through cable. Get so bad that I could not eat or sleep ...'".
During a break in the tour later that year, Hendrix died September 18, 1970 in controversial circumstances. In 1992, The experience has been appointed to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
