Jimi Hendrix & Traffic - Jam Thing (Rare Live Session)
From bootleg: Jimi Hendrix & Traffic: A Session - 1990 Line up: Jimi Hendrix: Guitar Chris Wood: Flute and Saxophone Jim Capaldi: Drums Steve Winwood: ...
+Brian Kidd Haven't heard the bit you're referring to but maybe that's because Fame was based on a sixties tune called 'Foot Stompin'" by The Flares, recorded in 1961, which hendrix would no doubt have heard of and performed at some point in his career.
I'm not sure that isn't a made up cover to fit 'The Jam' for Youtube. To
have Eric Burdon of the Animals, John Mayall and Carl Wayne of the Move on
the cover and only Steve Winwood of Traffic clearly does not represent the
line up playing. I have seen this pic many, many times and it has never had
Hendrix and Traffic across the top.
+gdawgs101 You are correct. However, have all the musicians in the photo collaberated in the studio together? Have they done so on any recording? Cheers!
+Rick Rutkowski Hmm, this is a good one. It does seem misleading, but, it's clearly been used before to describe this track. How 'bout we just sit back and enjoy it fellas?? :)
Eric Burdon and John Mayall were never members of Traffic. Neither was Carl Wayne. Eric Burdon and John Mayall probably did hang out with Steve Winwood. Jimi Hendrix did as well, I'm sure. Steve Winwood was a musical guest on one of Jimi's albums.
There was another posting with this image. Same tune. I was wondering who the man was on the lower right. I kept on getting responses. It's the late Carl Wayne. On other postings, someone thought it was Burton Cummings. I saw three of the musicians in this picture. Eric Burdon with The Animals, John Mayall (and met him), and Steve Winwood, twice, when he opened up for Tom Petty.
Why do most Sax players insist on continuously blowing all through jam
sessions and drowning any subtle interplay with that constant infernal
parping?
+chris edwards I was always a huge fan of "Turn the machine on and lets just jam, and see what happens." To me, that was where much of the magic always happened.
+sbilts Like i said above, i never have been a fan at all of sax in rock, but, in all fairness, these guys were way stoned, and just jamming out. And, since it's just a jam and hasn't been mixed properly, the sax is way too prominent.Still pretty damn cool to hear man!
+pbraganzify I particularly hate it when they try to play rhythm parts on it...it reminds me of the Benny Hill theme...It is an awesome instrument in the right hands however....There is a local music night near us and they have some excellent acts on but the promoter (a sax player of some note)insists on guesting with every one of them and sometimes its on every bloody tune...we stopped going in the end mainly because of that.....
+sbilts Could not agree more. So, you have perhaps the best living guitarist with you in the jam studio and you just blast whatever out. There were some seriously awesome riffs by Jimi in there too.
Not the sole inventor per say, but he was a big part of it in the sense that the guitar became a huge part of fusion. Had he not died, he probably would have been part of Miles Davis's electric bands.
