Doris Goldberg, 70, a physician retired from the New York City department of health, turned a passion into a nearly full-time venture.

In the next gallery, video screens, earphones, photographs, posters, costumes and guitars document the Big Four of Hendrix concerts: London, Monterey, Woodstock and the Isle of Wight. A soundproof room offers a full-volume eight-minute extract from a Berkeley concert that includes Voodoo Chile and Johnny B. Goode. And starting Nov. 27, you can see the ultimate Hendrix icon: what's left of the Fender Stratocaster that he famously burned...
