It is an honour and privilege to be able to share with you this just recently discovered, yet unknown recording of the Jan. 69 tour of the Jimi Hendrix Experience in Stuttgart, Germany.
Harald Rapp, the taper, was 16 back in 1969, and it was pure coincidence that he happened to tape this Jimi Hendrix show. He just had gotten his Phillips cassette recorder and only took it along to try it out. Not at all in a tape trading community, Harald almost forgot about his tape until it was relocated during the research for a radio special about the January 69 German tour of Jimi Hendrix. This is a 2nd gen copy. The master cassette was dubbed onto reel in the early 70ties, and later this cassette was made from the reel, sadly omitting two tracks, Red House and Sunshine of Your Love. Unfortunately, the master and source reel do not exist anymore, so these two tracks are missing and no longer existing...no other copies were made, this is all there is.
The recording itself is not too bad for its age and given the fact that what we have is a 2nd gen source. It even gets better and clearer during the Jimi Hendrix portion.
