It's long enough (barely) and new enough, I see no copyvios. The hook is verified. Launchballer, I got a few little things that you need to clear up. First, in the samples, we really need to know where the three guitar samples came from; note I added a comma for the bass/spoken word from Monterey. Then, for the video, you say "since much of the footage was originally taken from Jimi Plays Monterey, so too was video"--with "footage", you mean "audio"? Otherwise this is not clear. And again this suggests that "Up the Road" and "Bleeding Heart" might have come from Monterey as well--but were they? They're not on the album. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 22:47, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That entire sentence comes from the liner notes. By footage I specifically meant samples - changed. From what I can make out, the video samples are the spoken words and Wild Thing, although I couldn't say that with enough certainty to put it in the article.--Laun chba ller 23:33, 29 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

-- this is fine. It's not a great and detailed article, but it's good enough and the hook is interesting enough. Drmies (talk) 03:55, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
