"This is a pretty interesting recording that was done one night in NYC at "The Scene". Hendrix used to frequent the club, and would bring his own audio cassette player to record the jam sessions that would occur w/ other visiting musicians. This night, we had Johnny Winter and Jim Morrison in town visiting, w/ what is rumoured to be Buddy Miles on drums. Morrison is rather drunk at the onset, and obviously finishes his bottle during the show, becoming increasing intoxicated. It starts out strong, w/ Morrison on harp, but he evidently unfamiliar w/ "Tomorrow Never Know's" lyrics, begins to invent his own, rather funny and rather vulgar lyric, which even makes Hendrix giggle at Morrison's drunkenless: "Right now we got Jim Morrison on the uh....Jim Morrison on the- hahahaha." Definitely not for easy-going Doors fans. Really not a good performance to gauge Morrison's brilliance as a singer, seeing as he is very drunk. Hendrix, Winter & Miles are ok in this huge jam, but definitely a something to checkout if you are a hardcore fan of any of these men."

"this has been released under many different titles . it is basiclly 4 or 5 very stoned guys . the music is iffy there is much better out there . but with j.winter , hendrix , and [ surprise jim morrison on drums ]. on some versions of this bootleg you can hear jim morrison saying some pretty discusting things . i mean it .not gross . sick . i think they took away jims mic. ' cause while he was drumming you can hear him wailling in the background . it is not rare . europe has had for years . buy it for unique lineup only
love lostplay
buy instead jimi blues or jimi at woodstock or rainbow bridge ......"
