Jimi Hendrix Experience Bag O'Nails Club 1967 Poster By Rhys Cooper Release

 
Iconic by Collectionzz commemorates many iconic concerts, but sometimes a particular concert just stands out. This is one of those times and they turned to Rhys Cooper to create an equally epic poster.

When Jimi Hendrix first came to England, the word was out that a phenomenal guitar player from the United States was in town. On January 11, 1967, the newly formed Jimi Hendrix Experience spent a full day of recording 'Purple Haze' and 'The Wind Cries Mary'. Later that day, The Jimi Hendrix Experience performed two shows at the venerable Bag O’Nails, a tiny but influential music business Mecca in London’s Soho.

Hendrix continued to make waves in the local music scene, and whenever possible, a large group of fellow musicians would attend The Experience’s shows. Virtually every major British blues guitarist found themselves at this performance. The Beatles’ Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr were in attendance, as was The Who’s Pete Townshend and John Entwistle, The Rolling Stones’ Bill Wayman, and The Cream’s Eric Clapton.

Out of that seething maelstrom of creativity, heavy blues would be born; and every blues guitarist found themself rethinking their musical direction.
