I used to play Hendrix's version of the Star Spangled Banner at volume in our apartment in Philly and would run out the back door when I saw the police pull into the driveway.
A DJ radio personality friend of mine told me that Patti LaBelle, who lived on the sixth floor of a high rise apartment building a block away, said she could hear me playing, If nothing else, it was loud AF.
