In July 1965, Hendrix made his first television appearance on Night Train , a program produced and aired on Nashville TV station WLAC-TV (now WTVF ). Performing in Little Richard’s ensemble band, he backed up vocalists Buddy and Stacy on ” Shotgun “. The video recording of the show marks the earliest known footage of Hendrix performing. Richard and Hendrix often clashed over tardiness, wardrobe, and Hendrix’s stage antics, and in late July, Richard’s brother Robert fired him.
