It's called People, Hell & Angels. I got it on the good ole Amazone.
Re: P,H & A
I'll definitely check that one out. Last one I got was Valleys Of Neptune and I really dug that a lot. Especially the title track. Hope this one is even more badass.

I really like the second cut - "Somewhere". But I haven't heard the whole album yet. (grandkids visiting)

Now he just needs to introduce Hendrix to the grandkids!
Re: P,H & A
Oh trust me, they know all about lots of guitarists - far more, I think, than they want. But, though they roll their eyes ("not another guitar player!"), I believe that it will serve them in the future.

Re: P,H & A
I just got the CD in the mail yesterday from a friend and haven't yet made it through all the tracks. I've always been a Hendrix fan so with that in mind I like anything I haven't heard before from him. First impression is that it doesn't sound overprocessed like most other newer music, which is actually refreshing. Vocals are real clear. If I was to guess, the first half sounds like one take, whole band studio recordings. I haven't even read the liner notes yet but my son was telling me it says how this came about. Lots of bluesy rock jamming going on. Some songs seem to end a bit abruptly as if they decided a point to cut it off to prevent 10 minute songs. But all good for the Hendrix enthusiast.

Re: P,H & A
Thanks for the utube link. I got to listen to Jimi for free. Ain't that a deal? I've noticed that Miles has not commented on this thread. I don't think he likes Jimi.
Re: P,H & A
When I was 15 I lived in an artist warehouse collective. Everyday, I would play "Frampton Comes Alive" sing and play air guitar as loud as I could. After a few months of this one of the artists bangs on my door and says, "you're fucking killing me kid..........here", he gives me Are you Experienced and Axis and walks away. Still a fan after all these years, Hendrix is a huge part of my life's soundtrack.
The new one, despite the hype and debuting at #2 is just studio scratch, Jimi seems relatively sober and in tune. It's just OK.
When he pays with Buddy I miss the alchemy that was Jimi and Mitch Mitchell.
I buy these things because I love Hendrix. It's good as it gives us a glimpse of the man, but these are track that Jimi would have never released, period.

Re: P,H & A
Agreed. In fact, well ... he didn't. But it's still cool for a die hard fan like myself to hear something from long held archives.

Re: P,H & A
I completely agree. Mitch was as much a part of the Experience as Hendrix, and I say that as a life long Hendrix fan. No other drummer was right for Hendrix. They were made to play together.dreric wrote: When he pays with Buddy I miss the alchemy that was Jimi and Mitch Mitchell.
