“Witnessing how these three contributed to his stellar vision and bringing them together is a testament to Hendrix's enduring legacy”: Jimi Hendrix's Woodstock bandmates reunite for the first time in nearly 40 years to perform Band of Gypsys-era classics

The Woodstock set.

The three surviving members of Jimi Hendrix’s Woodstock band, Gypsy Sun & Rainbows, recently reunited for the first time since 1988. Bassist Billy Cox and percussionists Gerardo Velez and Juma Sultan, along with Hendrix stand-in guitarist Jimy Bleu, graced The Suffolk Theater in Riverhead, New York, on August 1 and paid homage to Hendrix's impactful legacy.

The special appearances didn't end there, however, as former Noel Redding and Spin Doctors guitarist Anthony Krizan and ex-Buddy Miles Express drummer Kenn Moutenot also joined the lineup.
