Jimi Plays Berkeley Screening

About this event

This special, expanded edition of the 1971 film Jimi Plays Berkeley showcases some of Jimi’s finest performances, filmed over two concerts at the Berkeley Community Theatre on May 30, 1970. The film documented the political unrest and student uprisings in Berkeley juxtaposed against legendary Hendrix live performances such as “Johnny B.
