Here's Volume 3 of Jimi Hendrix's performances for the BBC. Like the first two, all of the songs are from 1967. He did a ton of TV and radio performances in 1967. That isn't surprising. But what is surprising is that he did comparatively few from 1968 to 1970. I have just one volume in this series covering those three years.
This time, all but three of the songs were played at the BBC, and were on the official "BBC Sessions" album. The three exceptions come from a Dutch TV show called "Hoepla." One of those, "Catfish Blues," was released on the official "Blues" album. The other two remain officially unreleased. The "Hoepla" show was recorded very well. It was in front of a live audience, but I've removed the clapping as much as possible.
Other than that, there's no much to say for this album. However, as I mentioned earlier in this series, Hendrix played some songs for the BBC that he rarely or never played "live" (in the studio) again. One can especially see that on this volume, with rare songs like "Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window," "Hoochie Coochie Man," "Wait Until Tomorrow," "Day Tripper," and even a "jingle" he wrote for the BBC called "Radio One."
