Song of the Day: Hey Joe (Live)

Hey Joe by the one and only Jimi Hendrix, being performed live at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. This live version is one of Jimi’s most iconic performances for the simple fact that he starts playing the guitar with his teeth around the 1:40 mark. Not only does Hendrix play the first solo of the song flawlessly with his teeth, he plays the second solo at the 3:20 mark behind his head flawlessly as well. The guitar truly was just an extension of his body. There wasn’t anything that Hendrix couldn’t do with a guitar.
