Jimi Hendrix & Janis Joplin 🔥 Neither of Them Knew It Was Goodbye | Isle of Wight 1970 (Tribute)

🎸 Welcome to Crossroads Tape Vault. Isle of Wight, England. August 30, 1970. Six hundred thousand people had come to watch. It was the largest festival in British history. The stage faced the sea. The wind came off the Solent cold and clean even in August. Jimi Hendrix played that night. He would be dead in nineteen days. Nobody knew that then. Not the crowd. Not the promoters. Not Hendrix himself — or if he knew something was coming he played like a man who had decided to put everything he had ever felt into one last set. Those who were there say they had never heard anything like it. They still haven't. Janis Joplin was backstage. She had come to watch him — the way she always came to watch him whenever she could. They had known each other since the early days in San Francisco when neither of them was famous and both of them were burning. She stood in the wings and watched every note. After the show they sat together in the backstage tent. Someone had a bottle. The tape machine was running — left on from the soundcheck, nobody thought to turn it off. Thirty-five days later Janis would be gone too. But on that August night in 1970 they were both still here. Still burning. Still giving everything to whatever microphone was listening. This is what the tape captured. ───────────────────────────── 🎵 TRACKLIST ───────────────────────────── 00:00 · 01. Rain Over Windmill Lane 07:18 · 02. The Fire That Crossed the Sea 14:40 · 03.
