The Jimi Hendrix Experience at McNally Smith
I just got an email from a former college professor (Dave Schmalenberger) of mine about a FREE show he'll be a part of this Wednesday, November 17th at 7:00 PM. He and three others will be performing, in its entirety, Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced" album.
Here are the details I got from him:
We've been working on a cool project and the concert will be this wednesday, November 17th, at 7:00 p.m. in the McNally Smith College auditorium (19 Exchange Street East, St. Paul, MN 55101).
Jerry Kosak (guitar), Charles Fletcher (bass), Steve Faison (vocals), and myself (drums) will play the entire Hendrix album "Are You Experienced."
Some of these tunes are hard to pull off live, since Hendrix overdubbed several parts. So, Jerry has been spending lots-o-time creating loops and figuring sounds that help recreate this recording; as well as picking up several pedals and effects to get sounds close to the Hendrix vibe.
It's FREE! It will only last about an hour and 15 minutes max. And, you'll hear all the tunes on the U.S. release of "Are You Experienced:"
- Purple Haze
- Manic Depression
- Hey Joe (with backup singers!)
- Love or Confusion
- May This Be Love
- I Don't Live Today
- The Wind Cries Mary
- Fire
- Third Stone From the Sun
- Foxey Lady
- Are You Experienced?
Hope you can join us.
BRING EAR PLUGS - it will be loud!
- Dave
I'm not sure I'll be able to make it, but this concert looks awesome.
