Live at the Oakland Coliseum is a two-disc posthumous live album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, released on February 27, 1998 by Dagger Records. The album documents the band's performance at the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California on April 27, 1969.
The band's performance at the Coliseum was not professionally recorded, only captured as monophonic sound by fan Ken Koga. The set list for the concert was one typical of the 1969 tour, featuring staples "Fire", "Purple Haze" and "Spanish Castle Magic". Highlights include the improvised "Hey Joe", strong blues numbers "Red House" and "Hear My Train A Comin'", the extended "Foxey Lady" and the finale of the night, an eighteen-minute jam on "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)", for which Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady joined the band.
All songs were written by Jimi Hendrix, except where noted.
