Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze, Live 1968 Little intro as they fix a technical problem - "these amps are blowin' out, and...that's all that's left, you know, nothin' but ashes..."

Representing the Ladies:Little Girl Blue - Janis Joplin, Live on Tom Jone 1969For rocklist would put Piece of My Heart, but youtube selection not the best for that song and this video captures her well.And (on a lighter note), a few years later...I Love Rock and Roll - Joan Jet and The BlackheartsBad Reputation - Joan Jett
