I Bought this album because there was one song on there that I didn't know and I was giving it to a friend to get an idea of what he's like...Yes its true someone didn't know Jimi hendrix!!

However in listening to the album it is yet again the Hendrix empire selling another valueless CD of poorly recorded songs just to make another buck...

Any true fan of Jimi hendrix who wants to hear him properly should be venturing into buying albums like Electric Ladyland or South Saturn delta etc... for a more groovy sound than just the typical "All along the watch tower" sound.

In conclusion this album does little for Jimi as the REAL albums should be bought and nothing else because it is the only safe thing to do. And with CD prices falling all the time why not??

Thanks for reading...

I'm afraid I have to agree with the other reviews, not really worth buying - even for just £1.99 If I were you I'd fork out a little extra cash and go for something like "Are You Experienced" That said, if you're not too fussed about the occasional squeal on the tracks this is a reasonable buy and you still get some great Hendrix tunes. One thing they don't seem to mention is that quite a few of the tracks are live (if you listen you can hear cheering, etc) which may be a plus or a minus depending on what you want!!

Jimi is a legend one of the best gutarists ever, the songs on this cd are amazing, but it is the sound quality which lets it down. Even though its only £1.99 i would recommend you buy a different |hendrix album that'll do him the justice this legend deserves.
