The original Electric Factory concert hall was here. It is well-documented on the Web. Jimi Hendrix played here 2/21 and 2/22/68. A photo of the dressing room is in the inner-sleeve of Neil Young's After the Gold Rush album, according to http://articles.philly.com/1992-09-18/news/26021555_1_sam-cooke-movie-house-streets.

I also remember seeing at the Electric Factory Eric Claptons band, and Big Brother & the Holding Company (Janis Joplin wasnt with them that night), there were other bands, but its been so long ago I cant remember them. We usually hung out at the Trauma. Their house band was excellent. Date : 2015-08-20
