Welcome back for Vol. 3 of “Backstage Jams.”

In case you missed the past volumes, Vol. 2 found Jerry Garcia backstage playing Crazy Fingers while Vol. 1 featured Pete Townshend backstage doing a two song mini-set.

Today's Backstage Jam features yet another legend, Jimi Hendrix, doing a solo acoustic version of Hound Dog backstage at Royal Albert Hall on February 18, 1969.

She's thirsty. Get her some acid.
— Overheard in this video

Like most backstage jam videos, this one leaves you wanting more. But the good news is that in this video, the jam is followed up by an incredible Foxy Lady so you can take care of your jones right away.

And if you still need more Hendrix after that, you can always find plenty of Jimi Hendrix concert DVDs with the Jamtopia Concert DVD Finder.

Many thanks to buckelastard for posting this on YouTube.

The 11 Most Resonant Concert Performances Of All Time

Posted Mon, July 21, 2008 at 9:14 pm by Todd Levy

I recently came across a great post on Earvolution, where David Schultz wrote about what he believes are the “Eleven Most Resonant Live Concert Performances of all Time.”

A group of performances that had relevance beyond the notes that were played and resonated well beyond the time and place of their occurrence.
—David Schultz

I liked David's post so much I figured it'd be cool to capture all the great concert videos he recommended so you can watch them right here on Jamtopia.

Here's his list. Just click a link to jump to the concert video…
