Rochmon Record Club Listening Party
The Jimi Hendrix Experience “Smash Hits”
May 18, 2023 at 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
On Thursday, May 18 at 6:30 The Rochmon Record Club will converge to listen to and learn about The Jimi Hendrix Experience’s 1969 Greatest Hits Compilation album, “Smash Hits” at The Linda, WAMC’s Performing Arts Studio, 339 Central Ave., Albany.
Jimi Hendrix took the world by storm in the mid 60’s and changed the way electric guitar was played forever. “Smash Hits” contains 12 iconic Hendrix tracks, songs pulled from the first 2 Experience albums. Every song is instantly recognizable. “Purple Haze”, “The Wind Cries Mary”, Hey Joe”, Manic Depression” and “Foxy Lady” are among them. However, Rochmon is never satisfied, and we’ll be adding some extra songs to the list as well. Tickets are available online at thelinda.org
Rochmon Record Club Listening Parties begin at 7 pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon”. A Rochmon Record Club Listening Party is meant to inform and deepen our understanding of the history of the individual performers, the songs, and the stories that went into this iconic album’s making.
