Disaster on Disc

I've noted this supplier; never again. A great way to celebrate Woodstock with a CD that went wonkie after one track. I had to rate this 1 star to comply with sending this review. Zip.


Awesome Awesome!!
This whole album is great from start to finish. If you are any type of Jimi Hendrix, guitar, or rock music fan then this album is definitly for you. In my opinion it is their greatest studio album. The album starts off in the usual Hendrix, outer space vibe segued into the Curtis Mayfield like, (Have You Ever Been)To Electric Ladyland. Standouts on the album include Crosstown Traffic. The 15-minute long Voodoo Chile which sounds like a live recording but was actually in the studio. Then there's the Earl King Cover "Come On(Let the Good Times Roll). Jimi lets loose on this track. Don't know why other people haven't mentioned this song! Others include the track Gypsy Eyes which Jimi wrote about his mother. Burning of the Midnight Lamp is another standout with its psychedelic sounding guitar work. And arguably the most psychedelic song of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, 1983. This track is about 13 or 14 minutes long and is another epic like Voodoo Chile. Wonderful! The last two songs are perhaps some of his most recognized songs. All Along the Watchtower and Voodoo Child(Slight Return). They don't need an explaination! Come on. You should already know. But just in case you don't, buy the album!! You wont regret it. Enjoy.


Go a year without it
Hendrix created a spacetime hole in the fabric of music. EL is the archetypal image of what creative rock or even classical music has to compare itself to. When i first heard it shortly after release, I had no mental schema to even perceive what was happening. This is still a work in progress for me at 57. I will go a year or two without listening to it, and each time i replay it, it is completely eerily hauntingly seductive, as if I had never heard it before - yet I completely feel overwhelmed with its classical familiarity. This album flows as a uni-verse unto itself. I love the other classic Hendrix albums as well, but this one does not project radio hits, one so much isloated from the other; "slight" return becomes a bold launch to musical genius. .


jimi hendrix,s ultimate masterpiece electric ladyland!!!
this album was his third album,the sessions for electric lady land had some famous guest musicians such as drummer buddy miles and steve winwood. jimi hendrix,s electric lady land is in my opinion his master work!!!jimi hendrix recorded and released this album towards the end of 1968. this album was originally released with a different album cover that ended up being banned. for an artist who was working on his third album the sessions produced a great crop of material enough that the vinyl release was a double album. 1968 was a great year for rock music,the beatles released the double white album around the same time as this one,the stones released beggars banquet which the stones were thinking of making a double album but chose not to. ,cream released wheels of fire and the doors released waiting for the sun. for me the greats on 'ladyland'are;voodoo chile,crosstown traffic,voodoo child,slght return,rainy day,dream away,burning of the midnight lamp all along the watchtower and house burning down!!this album is a classic and a must for any hendrix fan!!!get this soon!.


My First Psychadelic Music Experience Yet I Was Straight
I was a Count Basie, Wes Montgomery, Duke Ellington jazz fan and Electric Ladyland soon became one of my favorite albums. I was 16 when this came out. Along with the Beatles' White Album, this was my first tune-in to the "new music". It made me feel high although I had never been "high" on anything at that time. This album is so terrific I still can't believe it. Jimi's guitar playing is--what can I say?--- revolutionary and great!.
