Hendrix,Garcia, Stones before helicopter to Altamont

Jimi Hendrix backstage with the Rolling Stones, Outside with Jerry Garcia, The Rolling Stones waiting on the helicopter to Altamont and my voice that I hate.

[@jondoe6273]

Whenever i see clips of Hendrix, he's almost always got a guitar in his arms and often just jamming around with someone else. It really was an exstension of himself. He would morph into this confident guy with his guitar, without it, he was shy. He certainly was a playing machine.

[@chucku.farley6463]

Oh, when you're a musician(as in, you honestly enjoy playing and it's not just a put on), then playing your instrument is the thing that's typically gonna make you the happiest. I'm always the most laid back and out of my anxiety when i'm in front of my keyboard.

This is worth it just to hear Ian Stewart's voice and see his face. Very rare. Good ol' Charlie, never putting up with Jagger's foolishness.

[@steveconn]

"The Stones was Ian's band" says Keef (who couldn't give Brian credit for anything).

[@falcon5467]

While it was Brian who formed the group it was Ian Stewart who did the hard work of keeping the band working on schedules and maintaining a high degree of musicianship. Until a recording session had Ian's approval they weren't allowed to leave the studio. Brian's combination of frustration at being shoved aside by the Jagger-Richards-Andrew Loog Oldham triumvirate followed by his overindulgence of drugs and the destructive behavior that it brought out sabotaged his very promising career. Ian Stewart adapted to his role in the Stones, Brian couldn't and didn't.

[@steveconn]

Robert Cross C'mon, Stewart refused to play minor keys while playing piano (why they brought in Nicky Hopkins). Just a lunkhead roadie and golf enthusiast who had nothing to do with the Stones studio behavior. To even put him in the same breath of importance to the Stones musically as Brian - who formed the band with a burning mission for the blues and contributed so many different colors and sound to Stones recordings -is a complete farce.

[@falcon5467]

I'm not saying Ian was a great musician. But he had a very diligent work ethic and the kind of forceful but lovable personality that pushed the Stones to put out the best product they were capable of. They all respected him as their severest critic who kept them from being too full of themselves. Brian, while the most artistic musician of the bunch, was far too lackadaisical in work ethics and too non-committal in his relationships to other people to be given the title of "leader" of the Stones.

[@steveconn]

Robert Cross Brian was the one who formed the group in the first place; without him Mick would've ended up a banker who sang along with Alexis Korner's band on occasional weekends for fun, and Keith would've ended up in Chuck Berry cover bands the rest of his life. Look at youtube clips; Brian is the spokesman for the group while Mick and Keith are silent in the background, he lead the band through rehearsals and corrected their playing through the first critical year, while Stu's biggest contribution was saying (Wyman quote): "Okay my little shower of shit/three-chord wonders, you're on."

[@wangson]

It's true what you're saying about people in the '90's being, "more real". I was in high school during the early 90's and I must say that I feel the same way about people back then. Everything is becoming less and less, "real" thanks to computers (in my opinion at least). Think about how fake popular music has become. Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj and all these popular singers don't rely on actual musical instruments when creating their, "music". They do rely HEAVILY on computers and drum machines to create their sounds which replicate traditional musical instruments. People also take "fake" pictures and post them to instagram or facebook -those aren't real pictures of people!! They've all been "touched up" and redone to make them look their best. It's fake.

[@_Singularity_]

It seems like cultural movements like this come in waves. Just looking at it from the music point of view, the image the Stones pushed was a response to the stiff and suffocating culture they grew up in, and then a few years later punk would come along to try to bring "authenticity" back into the popular music they saw as stagnant by the later 70s. Today, you can see a lot of the young rappers coming up to push against a music culture of one-dimensional pop stars.

Jimi Hendrix, Jerry Garcia, and The Rolling Stones kicking it

[@ironicapps]

Holding Mick or the Stones responsible for what happened should be relegated to the "No good deed goes unpunished" realm. They were trying to put on a free event to give back to the fans. PS--the Stones never hired the Hells Angels and a film of the tour was never planned.

I love how Jimi is playing righthanded! But I saw a video where Bill Kreutsmann was on the other side of jerry, so this version might be flipped in post-editing software.

[@georgestevens1502]

Ya, that's what I was thinking too. First, I thought Hendrux playing right handed?!! Then, must be a flipped imaging. Can't believe so few comments about it.

[@Umberto2]

I seem to remember a story about how Garcia and most of the Dead were all on LSD at this point waiting for the helicopter to take them to Altamont and they were getting more and more paranoid about the stories coming out from the show. By the time they got there, they bailed on playing altogether. A combination of the vibe and the drugs and Jerry noped the fuck out of there.

[@Sargebri]

If you look at the film, Garcia and Lesh meet up with Michael Shrieve of Santana and he tells them about what was going on including what happened to Marty Balin of Jefferson Airplane. It was at that moment that the Dead pulled out. Interestingly, they were supposed to perform between the Flying Burrito Brothers' set and the Stones and the Dead's set would have ended just as the sun went down. However, when the Dead pulled out the Stones decided to wait until after sunset to go onstage and because of the long gap the crowd really got more tense and that's when things really got bad.

[@BMWproductionCo]

None of the Dead took any acid that day, Phil describes the day in his book "Searching for the Sound"

[@michaelcasey5845]

I wonder if the Dead hadn't bailed, would the horror that followed been lessened.

[@Sargebri]

That's what a lot of people thought. The Dead were originally scheduled to go on between Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and the Stones. When the Dead pulled out the logical thing would have been for the Stones to go on right after CSNY, but Jagger wanted to wait until dark to perform and when CSNY finished their set it was still daylight and the sun wouldn't go down for at least a few more hours. The long wait was what helped add to a lot of the tension that was going on.

@@Sargebri I think you are correct sir!

[@andzwe]

It was essential to have the somewhat older and more grounded Watts, Stewart and Wyman in the band, with that kind of fame. It surely isn't only a matter of musical talent / chemistry that keeps a band going, but also the right mix of personalities.

Saw an interesting doco on the Dead yesterday which stated that once the band started making money they would give out food to people in the Haight Asbury & basically try to make sure they were ok, which if true really was ‘hippy capitalism’ in action! A very cool bunch of guys played in that band.

[@adc2327]

My friends went to Altamont and they called me to see if I wanted to go. This was before voicemail and answering machines had been invented. Of all days my father wanted us to go to brunch. We never went anywhere. The next day I found out they went and they tried to call me. There were so many people and they were so far back but they really didn't see all of the bad things that went on. They had to watch it on the news just like all the rest of us.

It's backstage at a Rolling Stones concert, at Madison Square Garden, 1969. Jimi and Mick are acting weird around each other.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Mick was pissed at Jimi for trying to steal Marianne Faithfull from him. Just read about it in a well written book by Stanley Booth.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

+dailyflash At a party, Mick cut his finger and Jimis longtime girlfriend Devon went up to mick and sucked the blood off. In the song "Dolly Dagger" Jimi sings "She drinks her blood from the jagged edge" in reference to this incident. I have a head full of useless rock trivia.

[@paulablissett9396]

I noticed, it was about a woman...

[@billjackson1317]

Actually Jimi got discovered by Linda Keith ,Keith Richards girl at the time, and let Jimi use one of Keith's strats to audition 4 Chas Chandler, and later had a thing with her. I think Jimi felt kinda uneasy & shy being asked if he'd seen. Linda 😎
