Not Monterey. I'm trying to figure it out...the youtube post says Berkeley but another says it is from Rainbow Bridge.

No matter where it is from, I think it lays out the difference between Jimi and SRV. SRV was a great player (I saw him tour with Beck at LA Sports Arena), but he was not in the same league as Hendrix. No one was...

If you listen to SRV you can distinctly hear Hendrix along with the Kings, Waters, etc. When you listen to Hendrix...well, it is all there along with everyone else and it transcends all of them.
