Jimi Hendrix - Black Gold Volumes 1-3 (5CD-Box 1996) [FLAC]

ATTENTION - FOR COLLECTORS & REAL FANS ONLY!
Of course everybody can download Black Gold. But if you expect a nice 'best of'compilation or a discography - you will be disappointed. This unofficial box set includes a collection of rare Electric Ladyland outtakes, rehearsals & raw versions. I write these lines because of some bad experiences here on KAT: I got angry comments & bad ratings for similar uploads. So if you are no collector or if you are not familiar with single flac files (and too stupid or too lazy to read and follow the included tutorial) - HANDS OFF! -max




Notes
Not the famous Black Gold that was possibly to be Jimi's fifth album but rather a very fine collection of Electric Ladyland outtakes and rehearsals.
