Customer Reviews If Purple Haze and Fire are all the Hendrix you know, then.... If Purple Haze and Fire are all the Hendrix you know, then. . give this album a listen. There is a nice variety of tracks- from hard rockin' blues to mellow instrumentals. The variation of Voodoo Chile is worth the whole disc. I was pleasantly suprised with this CD. Wow! Back in the 60's, I did not realize how great a blues guitarist that Jimi Hendrix was. . he was presented to us as an innovative "psychedelic" phenom, and after 35 years, this CD has shown me what I didn't realize before. . he could also play the blues. . could he play the blues! And I thought that I knew my music. . . I am humbled by the music on this CD. . . incredible!. If you don't have the Box Set I thought the family had released all of the important recordings by the Master, but this is one someone denied us we now can study. If you don't have the Box Set I would get this if only for 'Country Blues'. I am very happy to hear these new versions of his standards. 'Georgia Blues' is a great workout with Lonnie Youngblood I didn't know existed. I could go on but seriously if you are a Hendrix fan, get this CD & be refreshed. . .
