Jimi's electrifying remake of Chuck Berry's classic "Johnny B. Goode" stands as one of the peaks of his 1970 US tour. Reworking cover material for his live performances was a time honored Hendrix tradition and "Johnny B. Goode" was no exception. "Two weeks earlier we were playing at Temple University and just before we went onstage Jimi said we were going to start the show with 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' and 'Johnny B. Goode'. I just looked at him. 'Sgt. Pepper' and 'Johnny B. Goode'? He laughed and said, 'C'mon man, you know all that old shit!'
