Description

Vinyls are ex and the the cover is vg+

Extremely rare early UK pressing on Track Records with gatefold cover. This version has white text on the inside of the fully laminated gatefold cover. Hendrix is on the right hand side on the inside and the Redding and Mitchell images are small and in sepa colours.

Bursting with ideas and energy, Jimi Hendrix’s second album release of 1968 (following Axis: Bold as Love) was a double-LP set that showcased virtually everything the guitar genius had to offer: blistering blues (Voodoo Chile), galaxy-patrolling space jams (1983… A Merman I Should Turn To Be), psychedelic soul (Crosstown Traffic), and skyscraping rock (Voodoo Child (Slight Return)). In the midst of all this was even a hit song–Hendrix’s remarkable reading of Bob Dylan’s All Along The Watchtower, featuring a series of baton-passing guitar solos, all distinct and brilliant. Seemingly diffuse when first released; in hindsight, kaleidoscopically eclectic and for many fans it has been seen as his magnum opus.
