Machine Gun: The Fillmore East First Show is a live album by Jimi Hendrix, featuring songs recorded during the first set at the Fillmore East in New York City on December 31, 1969. Hendrix is backed by Billy Cox on bass and Buddy Miles on drums, a lineup frequently referred to as the Band of Gypsys. Except for “Hear My Train A Comin'” and “Lover Man”, the eleven songs represent new material that had not been performed by the Jimi Hendrix Experience.
The album further documents Hendrix’s four sets on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day with the Band of Gypsys. It adds to the previously released material on Band of Gypsys (1970), Band of Gypsys 2 (1986), Live at the Fillmore East (1999), and West Coast Seattle Boy: The Jimi Hendrix Anthology (2010). All of the tracks, except for “Hear My Train A Comin'”, “Changes” and “Izabella”, appear for the first time on an official release.
