1st show
The MC announces the JHE and their "Electric Church Music". Jimi dedicates the show to the "American Deserters Society". After a "Killing Floor" opener,the band jumps into a 7 minute "Spanish Castle Magic".

"Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" contains a drum solo starting around the 9:00 mark. Next up is a solid 10 minute "Red House". Jimi rather quickly hops into "Sunshine of Your Love" to finish the show.

This concert is available as a highly enjoyable soundboard recording. A black and white video of the show also exists,and it shows a fairly bored Hendrix going through the motions for the most part.

2nd show
A happier sounding Jimi takes the stage and dedicates the show to "Wally's Case". An almost 8 minute "I Don't Live Today" finishes with some ghostly sounds emanating from Jimi's guitar. "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" contains a sweet unaccompanied guitar piece starting around the 7:40 mark.

This time around "Sunshine of Your Love" contains a solo by Mitch. A high quality 11 minute "Red House" comes next. The audience seems to talk Jimi into playing "Fire" next. Following that,the JHE finishes up with "Purple Haze" and "Star Spangled Banner".

Like the 1st show,this one is also available as a high quality soundboard.
