Davis Inman writes: Some of the first video footage ever shot of Hendrix was on Nashville’s WLAC Channel 5 television show Night Train. You can see him on a 1965 clip backing up Buddy & Stacy, looking freaky and sliding his hand over the front of his guitar’s neck. Joe Chambers, the founder of the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville. says Hendrix and Cox played the clubs on Jefferson as well as the club circuit from Murfreesboro to Tullahoma.[1]
