    Winterland would become Jimi’s new ‘home’ in America, a place where would be comfortable enough to play and record numerous shows, and we will have a series of three (!) shows from this theater later in the year, but today we only have a few excerpts from an early show in February 1968.

    As for the venue, get used to it, because we’re going to be hearing a lot of music from this venue in a couple of weeks. Meanwhile, we have a live track from a venue near my family’s summer home in the Berkshires right around the time my parents bought the modest little cottage, and a few studio outtakes.

    Featured tracks include:

    Killing Floor (Winterland)

    Red House (Winterland)

    Catfish Blues (Winterland)

    Dear Mr. Fantasy (Part One) (Winterland)

    Dear Mr. Fantasy (Part Two) (Winterland)

    Fire (live In Clark University, Berkshires, MA)
