Information

  • "1970" Tape with girl's voice very clear & next to or close by recording source
  • In the Summer of 1970 the first "bootleg" album of Hendrix appeared, from a tape made at the Los Angeles Forum on April 25, 1970.
  • Music Now: "How do you feel about the bootlegs circulating?" Jimi: "I haven't had many records out for a while. Those pirate tapes, you know, some cat went to a private practice session with a tiny tape recorder and made a pirate LP. The quality must be terrible. There are pirate tapes of the Woodstock thing around too." - Music Now, Sept. 12, 1970
  • It's depressing to infer from Jimi's above quote (spoken to Norman Joplin in Jimi's London hotel room on Aug. 28, 1970, three weeks before Hendrix died) that he didn't live to hear the amazing first bootleg to circulate among his fans, from his landmark 1970 L.A. Forum performance. "Bootlegs" - unauthorized vinyl albums - were the new thing throughout 1970.
  • Many years after Jimi died, two different recordings of the same 1970 L.A. Forum concert were found from tape decks in the hall that night, decks located further away from the stage than the deck that recorded the vinyl bootleg album. These later two tapes have lesser sound reproduction, most of the music's nuances heard on the "1970 tape" are lost on these tapes found years later. Yet, these worse quality tapes are widely circulated by collectors (one of these trashy versions has been featured for years on the Hendrix company website). The better sounding "1970 tape" remains almost totally unknown today.
  • The "1970 tape" (Source 1), which is best, is the source for the first Hendrix bootleg album in 1970, and it's identifiable by the presence of two girls nearby the tape recorder who are heard speaking during the concert intro (the girls are heard at points throughout the show). The other, later-found, tapes have different audience members around those tape recorders, however, the tape found in the '80s, the "1980s tape" (Source 2), is positioned in a spot nearby the "1970 tape" recorder; if you listen closely to the Source 2 excerpt link below, you can hear the two girls, who're sitting next to the "1970 tape" recorder, their voices are also heard (more faintly) on the "1980s tape" - listen at the spot just one second before Jimi says, "We have Billy Cox on bass" - and we hear a girl say "Look at him, oh he's beautiful." On the "1970 tape" her voice is clearly heard upfront, whereas on the "1980s tape" we hear this same girl from some distance, maybe two rows away, which suggests that the Source 2 "1980s tape" was made on a comparably cheaper model tape recorder than the better sounding Source 1 "1970 tape" deck located nearby it in the Forum. The differences are not minimal, because there are many, many musical passages from Jimi at this show where the timbres of sound he produced are clearly heard on the Source 1 "1970 tape" but are lost or sound muffled on the Source 2 "1980s tape" and Source 3 "1990s tape." http://www.rockprophecy.com/hendrix70b.html

RECORD & COVER GRADES NEAR MINT (NM) ~ Looks brand new. Vinyl looks like it may never have been played, with perhaps some faint superficial marks or paper scratches but nothing that would affect play. Labels/Spindleholes have few, if any, spindle marks, or marks from handling. Covers are pristine and usually still in the original shrinkwrap.
Excellent (EX) ~  Is almost perfect but has some slight flaws. Vinyl may have some very light scratches/blemishes/scuffs which are superficial and should  not affect the quality of the sound very much. There may be some surface noise but it shouldn't distract from the music. Covers may have very light ring wear/cornerwear/seamwear, light writing/discoloration and/or small stickers/punch holes/saw-cuts/creases. Labels may have light spindle marks/writing and/or small stickers.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+) ~  Looks good but with some signs of use & wear. Vinyl will have noticeable light scuffs/scratches/wear but for the most part, it will only cause some light surface noise and/or spots of mild noise. Any scuffs and scratches will not be "feelable" and will not cause skips. There may be the slightest of "dish warps" but it will not be immediately noticeable & will not affect sound. Covers may have mild/moderate ring & shelf wear, small seam splits, some mild writing/creases/discoloration/stickers/punch holes/saw-cuts. Labels may have mild writing/names/stickers/spindle marks. 
VERY GOOD (VG) ~ Shows definite wear and handling but the vinyl is playable and the cover is still together. Vinyl will have noticeable surface noise in areas with clicks and pops. There may be "feelable" scratches/scuffs which could cause skips. Cover has obvious ring and shelf wear, stickers, marks, staining, seam splits on any or all 3 sides, writing, cuts, and discoloration. Record Labels may have writing, names, stickers and will have spindle marks.
GOOD PLUS (G+) ~ Only a rare or special record will be listed with this grade.
