Jimi Hendrix Tribute Day | Amoeba SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Celebrate the release of Jimi Hendrix Experience Winterland, a four-CD set that documents the band’s performances at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom through the course of six concerts over three nights in 1968.

In recognition of the release and of San Francisco’s relationship with the life and legacy of Jimi Hendrix, September 13th has been proclaimed Jimi Hendrix Winterland Day by the Board of Supervisors of the City.

Celebrate at Amoeba Music with Experience Hendrix CEO (and Jimi’s sister), Janie Hendrix, and the one and only Bootsy Collins.

Bootsy’s current release, The Funk Capital of the World, includes “Mirrors Tell Lies,” a track that incorporates the speaking voice of Jimi Hendrix. Bootsy will be signing copies of the album and will premiere the video for “He’s Still The Man,” his tribute to the late James Brown in whose band he played as a teenage prodigy.

Rare Jimi Hendrix video clips will also be shown in the store over the course of the evening.
