    Radio Station EXP Ep. 1: August 1966

    In the series premiere of Radio Station EXP, travel back exactly 60 years to August 1966—the crucial turning point in Jimi Hendrix’s rise to stardom. Set against the tumultuous backdrop of the Vietnam War escalation, MLK’s Chicago Freedom Movement, and the Beatles’ "More popular than Jesus" tour controversy, this episode explores Jimi’s days as "Jimmy James" in New York’s Greenwich Village. Featuring exclusive firsthand recollections from an eyewitness who saw Jimi perform, we recount the last month of Jimi's "struggling artist" period and the catalyst for the chain reaction that would soon catapult him to London and global fame. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit heavenresearch.substack.com
