60 YEARS AGO TODAY:
10/23 – The Jimi Hendrix Experience record their first single, “Hey Joe,” at De Lane Lea studios in London. It will become one of the band’s signature tunes.
Although the record doesn't do much here in The States (where it was delegated to the B-Side of Hendrix's second US single, "Foxey Lady"), it will be a Top Ten Single in the UK, where it peaks at #6.
