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:
“Napoleon wanted to turn Paris into Rome under the Caesars, only with louder music and more marble. And it was done. His architects gave him the Arc de Triomphe and the Madeleine. His nephew Napoleon III wanted to turn Paris into Rome with Versailles piled on top, and it was done. His architects gave him the Paris Opera, an addition to the Louvre, and miles of new boulevards.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“The gold-digger in the ravines of the mountains is as much a gambler as his fellow in the saloons of San Francisco. What difference does it make whether you shake dirt or shake dice? If you win, society is the loser.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“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)
