This special edition features all of the existing film footage from Jimi's incendiary June 18,1967 concert newly transferred to high-definition specs from the original 16mm camera original. Re-edited and presented in its original performance sequence.
Note - This is not the original Jimi Plays Monterey, made in 2007 it has a short documentary lead in to the complete concert footage which is why i'll list D.A Pennebaker as the director.
