Purple Floyd

Better in Mono but its a cool photo. Some great  Granddad dancing here (how do you dance to 'Stella anyhow???)dude probably went onto been Magnus Pike or something ...having a Floydian Hendrixian afternoon , As a 14 year old a mate lent me a  C90 tape which had Pink Floyds Relics on one side and The Jimi Hendrix Experiences "Are you Experienced " on the other it only occurred to me today that their  were released within a week of each other .. the rest of tape was made up of Creems Goodbye ..but  I thought Barrett and Hendrix were the meat and potatoes  from then on.. not Syd but always dug this 1.like fingermouse freakbeat... Syd Solo JB vs LSD (cool to see Syd's painting incorporated into the animations. Onto JimiExp
.But I miss cassette tapes they helped you survive the 80's lol best hussar jacket ever .When Jimi met "God" Innocent & Experienced .Good to hear from the man himself at peak of his power.

First recording of Jimi? (or that might be My Diary with Rosa Lee Brooks)
1967 and all that.
