The Cry of Love Tour was a United States concert tour by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, which ran from April 25 to August 1, 1970. The tour turned out to be the last Hendrix performed on before his death in September, and featured many songs that he was working on for his double album "First Rays of the New Rising Sun".

et list

The set lists on the tour consisted largely of new songs being worked on by Hendrix, including "Lover Man", "Room Full of Mirrors", "Machine Gun" and "Ezy Ryder". A number of songs from his original albums were still included, however, such as "Fire", "Red House", "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)".

The following is the set list from the band's May 9, 1970 concert at the Will Rogers Coliseum in Forth Worth, Texas, which serves well as a sample setlist for the tour. "Fire" and "Lover Man" were regularly used as the first songs and "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child" were regularly used as the last.

#"Fire"
#"Lover Man"
#"Hear My Train A Comin'"
#"Foxy Lady"
#"Room Full of Mirrors"
#"Red House"
#"Freedom"
#"Ezy Ryder"
#"Machine Gun"
#"The Star-Spangled Banner"
#"Purple Haze"
#"Voodoo Child (Slight Return)"

A number of concerts featured "Spanish Castle Magic" as the opening song, and in the later dates songs like "Stone Free", "Hey Joe" and "All Along the Watchtower" were introduced. "Straight Ahead" and "Midnight Lightning" also made their live debuts, both at the May 30 Berkeley concerts.
