The Experience cut a live TV session for ITV’s It Must Be Dusty at Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire on June 5, 1968. Hendrix launches into ‘Stone Free’ with “This is dedicated to Brian Jones”, who had recently been arrested for possession of marijuana. Side One finishes up with a bit of chat between Jimi and Dusty, then on Side Two Jimi accompanies Dusty with solo guitar on a duet of Charlie and Inez Foxx’s “Mockingbird”. The session ends with a powerful rendition of their latest single, “Voodoo Child (Slight Return).” The show was broadcast on July 12, and although the video performance no longer exists, a grainy clip of “Mockingbird” from a Super 8 camera pointed directly at the TV can be found on a popular video hosting site.
