PHOTO QUESTION #1

A dear friend from Switzerland sent me this question: “Do you know when and where this photo was taken and are there more from this jam?”

Answer: There are no other photos known to exist of this jam, or at least not in my collection.

The answer to the date can be found in Hendrix 1969: Day By Day, page 146-149:

18 and 19 March: Jimi jams with Lonnie Youngblood and his backing band the Blood Brothers at Small’s Paradise in Harlem, New York City.

More on these jams here:
