with not only the greatest guitar player in rock, but also easily the greatest drummer rock has ever known in Mitch Mitchell. Mitchell was a converted jazz drummer, a devotee of the great Elvin Jones (Jimi called him "my Elvin Jones"
and with his playing, both subtle and powerful, helped create the very soulful rock sound of The Experience. By the way, I'm in the audience at that Hendrix concert in Berkley. I was first in line at the ticket booth the morning the tickets went on sale and I got my seat on the left side of the stage, right in front of Jimi.
And Taste, with the great Rory Gallagher on guitar was pretty good too.
The 60s British experimental rock trio The Soft Machine.
The Nice after their guitarist left the band and Keith Emerson carried the main load was even better.
And finally, one of the very greatest power trios ever assembled, The Tony Williams Lifetime (legendary jazz drummer Tony Williams, incredible jazz keyboardist Larry Young who (plays the Hammond organ with his hands and bass pedals with his feet, and rock/fusion guitarist John McLaughlin).
