Jimi Hendrix “Let me live my life the way I want to” Woodstock cover

This music-themed philatelic cover by Joshua McGee bears "Jimi Hendrix" and "The Star-Spangled Banner" stamps, set atop a purple haze and connected by a psychedelic swirl of the musical notation for "The Star-Spangled Banner". In the bottom-left, it bears a lyrics excerpt from Hendrix:

I'm the one that's got to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live the way I want to.

It is postmarked with a pictorial cancellation from Woodstock, New York.
