JIMI HENDRIX's Legendary 1969 Woodstock Performance To Receive Global Theatrical Release - Nov. 6, 2012
In celebration of the 70th anniversary of Jimi Hendrix's birth, for the first time ever see Jimi Hendrix's unforgettable August 1969 Woodstock concert will be shown in select cinemas globally. This special-edition theatrical presentation has been carefully reassembled from the extensive archive of film footage helmed by Academy Award-winning director Michael Wadleigh and his handpicked team of skilled camera operators and support personnel under the auspices of Experience Hendrix LLC, the Hendrix family-owned company. What they captured was a Jimi Hendrix performance unlike any other. Jimi premiered a new band and his extraordinary performance on that August morning included unforgettable renditions of such signature Hendrix songs as "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)", "Fire", "Purple Haze" and "Foxy Lady" as well as his dramatic interpretation of the "Star Spangled Banner".

Jimi's fascinating road to the Woodstock festival is revealed by way of never-before-seen footage and interviews with his band members such as Billy Cox and Mitch Mitchell, engineer Eddie Kramer and Woodstock's promoter Michael Lang. Directed by Grammy Award winner Bob Smeaton ("Beatles Anthology", "Band Of Gypsys", "Festival Express"), the documentary, which precedes the performance footage, reveals the struggle to stage the legendary festival and secure Hendrix as its headline artist.

Jimi Hendrix's Woodstock performance stands as one of the finest ever in rock music history. This presentation features the original 16mm footage digitally restored together with a new 5.1 audio surround mix by legendary engineer Eddie Kramer. Kramer originally recorded the Woodstock festival and also served Jimi Hendrix as his recording engineer throughout his entire career.

Songs performed in original sequence:

01. Message To Love
02. Spanish Castle Magic
03. Red House
04. Lover Man
05. Foxy Lady
06. Jam Back At The House
07. Izabella
08. Fire
09. Voodoo Child (Slight Return)
10. Star Spangled Banner
11. Purple Haze
12. Woodstock Improvisation
13. Villanova Junction
14. Hey Joe

"Hendrix 70: Live From Woodstock" will see a worldwide theatrical release by Omniverse Vision with limited screenings from November 26. Tickets for the theatrical screenings will be available at JimiHendrix.com.
