Description

Using original tapes sourced from the Michael Jeffrey Estate (a private contact says a skip in New York!), on Disc 10 you can hear just how enthusiastic and fast Hendrix was recording Are You Experienced. Some of the versions of Can You See Me and Fire contain such succulent psych guitar that you’re left begging for more. Disc One covers at the Axis sessions, and Hendrix’s focus in Olympic Studios is clear. The best disc has a first proper Castles Made Of Sand outtake and two incredibly psychedelic versions of Little One: a Hendrix sitar-drone jam with Traffic (allegedly including Brian Jones). History states that Chas Chandler couldn’t stand the Electric Ladyland sessions once they moved to New York City. Yawning jams with Hendrix gobbling LSD and snorting cocaine drove him back to England. At least half the set is taken up with these: a 36-minute Voodoo Chile, and one disc almost dedicated to Rainy Day Dream Away are for fanatics alone. The sleevenotes, attributed to Jon Kirkman, are full of howlers and should be treated with caution. One track, Closer To The Truth (March 1969) is credited to Hendrix as a ‘sound collage’. A call to Kathy Etchingham confirmed that it’s just a stoned Hendrix reciting poetry to a New Animals record. But in terms of sound quality and exhaustiveness, In The Studio is the best Hendrix outtakes set
