Jimi Hendrix Experience hits London

Remaining musicians from Jimi Hendrix's bands are celebrating 40 years since the late guitarist's debut at the Monterey Pop Festival by playing a show in London.

Surviving Hendrix collaborators Mitch Mitchell, drums, and Billy Cox, bass, will perform alongside guitarist Gary Moore, Primal Scream drummer Darrin Mooney and bassist Dave Bronze, this Thursday October 25 at the London Hippodrome for the tribute concert, which will also include a screening of a new Jimi Hendrix DVD.

The live DVD, 'Jimmy Hendrix Live at Monterey (The Definitive Edition)', will be released on Monday 29 and features performances of 'Hey Joe', 'Purple Haze' and 'Like A Rolling Stone' from the 1967 summer pop concert.

Look out for our interview with Hendrix band members Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox coming soon.

Tickets are available for the screening and tribute concert here.
