As far as the song in the video goes, you've got good ears. But then again, it's hard not to notice Jimi Hendrix. :-) The song is called Blue Window Jam. It's from from an compilation of studio recordings from an album called Diamonds In The Dust - The Best of Jimi Hendrix Rare Studio Recordings.

Thanks for the info. I've bought a lot of crap that Jimi did way before the Experience days and they kept releasing a lot of stuff after his death. I think I heard his sister Janie has gotten the rights back, so things have improved. It looks like that track is on the Martin Scorsese CD but is pretty pricey for a 1 CD release. I didn't see the Diamonds in the Dust CD available. I'll check with one of the gals from HS. She owns a large record store in Florida called Banana's. She probably has something on it.

Lol. Me too. Janie is Hendrix's "sister" only because Al Hendrix adopted her after. Nothing more. Not many people have good things to say about her.

Anyway, back to cars...

OMG. I grew up in Flushing and I remember that 66 Coronet in the video driving around town. I thought it was the coolest car I had ever seen because it was so loud. I was 9 years old at the time. LOL Great memories. Thanks for sharing
