A Young Jimi Hendrix: Before the Fame!

March 19, 2026

You guys, I stumbled upon this video and had to share! It's from 1965, and it features Buddy & Stacey performing their song "Shot Gun." But the real reason I'm sharing it? Look closely at the guitarist on the left...

Yep, that's a very young Jimi Hendrix! He's not the flamboyant rock god we all know yet, just a super talented sideman. It's so cool to see him in this early stage, absolutely shredding even then. You can already hear glimpses of the magic that was to come.

It's just a fun little time capsule of a legend in the making. Definitely worth a quick watch!
