Paris 1967/San Francisco 1968 is a posthumous live album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, released on April 24, 2003 by Dagger Records. The album contains songs from The Jimi Hendrix Experience's performances at the Olympia in Paris, France on October 9, 1967 and Winterland in San Francisco, California, USA on February 4, 1968.
The Paris show is not complete on this release. Two superb examples of the spirited performance were included as part of the 2000 Jimi Hendrix Experience box set. "The Wind Cries Mary" and "Catfish Blues", two additional Paris performances have not been included. Technical problems commenced during the latter half of "Catfish Blues" and a malfunctioning microphone rendered "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" and "Foxey Lady" unusable.

Famous quotes containing the words paris, san and/or francisco:
“When Paris sneezes, Europe catches cold.”
—Prince Metternich (1773–1859)
“We had won. Pimps got out of their polished cars and walked the streets of San Francisco only a little uneasy at the unusual exercise. Gamblers, ignoring their sensitive fingers, shook hands with shoeshine boys.... Beauticians spoke to the shipyard workers, who in turn spoke to the easy ladies.... I thought if war did not include killing, I’d like to see one every year. Something like a festival.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
“Today, San Francisco has experienced a double tragedy of incredible proportions. As acting mayor, I order an immediate state of mourning in our city. The city and county of San Francisco must and will pull itself together at this time. We will carry on as best as we possibly can.... I think we all have to share the same sense of shame and the same sense of outrage.”
—Dianne Feinstein (b. 1933)
