Out of all of the various Hendrix “bootlegs” over the years, nothing even comes close to the quality of the sound presented here. It’s as if you’re sitting in Jimi’s apartment with the master and just kicking back and listening to him play right fucking there, practicing the songs that would be on Electric Ladyland with just a guitar, one mike, and a small amp.
The sound quality is what is absolutely unbelievable about these songs—there is virtually no tape hiss, dead silence in ambient background, just Jimi, playing very relaxed and laid-back.
This recording allows the listener an opportunity to have heard just how fresh, raw (and brilliant) a solo rehearsal from Jimi could be.
Just another musician, sitting at home working on some tunes…
