Watch this unearthed clip of Buddy Guy and Jimi Hendrix jamming in 1968

It's difficult to find footage of the legendary Jimi Hendrix jamming with a guitarist who's still touring and recording in 2020. But that's exactly what we have here.

The video starts off with Guy performing a powerful rendition of Stormy Monday at a small club with his band. At 0:54, we see Hendrix grooving near the front of the stage, clearly enjoying what he's hearing and seeing. After an edit that occurs at 6:20, Hendrix is suddenly on stage with Guy and the band, holding a lefty Strat.

The remaining five or so minutes of the clip features a loose - to say the least - jam session over a funky beat. During the melee, Buddy breaks a string and experiences tuning issues as a result.

If you just want to get to Hendrix's solo, head directly to 9:41. If you're wondering who's soloing between 6:26 and 8:19, join the club. We're leaning toward Roy Buchanan, Bob Margolin, Dave Mason or Hugh McCracken.

Anyway, enjoy this piece of guitar history!
