Could it be that the story of Jacob Beizart might engender and require sporadic intercalary quasi-exegesis of music played by James Marshall Hendrix across (roughly) his last four years of earthly life? Yes.

After listening to parts of Jimi's Woodstock performance in the truck this morning, and thinking now about his "Rainbow Bridge" performance in 1970 in Maui, it seems to me that he did some of his best playing outdoors. Something about the sky, the influence of the sky.
