Part documentary, part concert, Electric Church sees Hendrix play to 300,000 people at the 1970 Atlanta pop festival. Plus, comedy karaoke with Fawlty Towers: The Play. Here’s what to watch this evening
9pm, BBC Four
Part documentary, part concert movie, this feature-length film captures Jimi Hendrix’s last major US gig at the 1970 Atlanta pop festival, just two months before his death – making the inclusion of some of his funkier new songs such as Straight Ahead especially poignant. “We don’t play loud to hit people’s eardrums,” he tells an interviewer. “We play to get inside their souls.” Ali Catterall
