1966, The Jimi Hendrix Experience played their first gig as a band supporting French pop star Johnny Hallyday at the Paris Olympia in France.

Here it is:



Carol Kaye played electric bass with hard pick sound (same as many of the Beach Boys songs) and another fellow played a big double bass for the descending eighth notes. Not sure how many songs feature an electric and string bass with different parts.
