Customer Review a legendary show Recorded at New York City's Scene Club in 1968, this show exists under several titles through multiple small-time CD companies. "Woke Up This Morning and Found Myself Dead" is one of the most popular Hendrix bootlegs and for good reason. "Woke Up This Morning and Found Myself Dead" is what this show is called as released through the Red Lighting label. The performance features a legendary line-up with Jim Morrison and Johnny Winter. Morrison with Hendrix? You read correctly. Jim doesn't sing as much as he slobbers drunken obscenities. Depending on one's sensibilities, the listener will either find this hilarious or offensive; indeed, the neutrally titled 'Morrison's Lament' could have been more accurately titled 'f*** her in the *ss!' The setlist is another *sset for this show. The band plays a Beatles song, a tune by Cream and a few of Jimi's favorite Blues standards. The treatment is loose, highly improvisational and will have high appeal to those from the jamband school of music. As far as bootlegs go, the recording quality is excellent thanks to the soundboard recording. This is a true piece of 1960's nostalgia: Hendrix jammin' with some buddies in one of his favorite New York City clubs. For those who've listened to all of Jimi's records a thousand times, "Woke Up This Morning and Found Myself Dead" shows a rare and most refreshing side of Hendrix. 1) Red House 2) Wake Up This Morning and You Find Yourself Dead 3) Bleeding Heart* 4) Morrison's Lament* 5) Tomorrow Never Knows* 6) Uranus Rock* 7) Outside Woman Blues 8) Sunshine of Your Love * w/ Jim Morrison. .
