DECEMBER 29
THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE MADE THEIR DEBUT ON THE UK TV SHOW ‘TOP OF THE POPS’ IN 1966, PERFORMING “HEY JOE”. UNFORTUNATELY, THE VIDEO OF THE PERFORMANCE WAS WIPED BY THE BBC, BUT THE AUDIO IS SAVED THANKS TO A FAN WHO RECORDED THE AUDIO OF THE PERFORMANCE FROM THE TELEVISION.
IN 1979, THE LAST NIGHT IN A SERIES OF CONCERTS WERE HELD AT THE HAMMERSMITH ODEON IN LONDON, FOR THE PEOPLE OF KAMPUCHEA.
