THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE

 MITCH MITCHELL, JIMI HENDRIX, NOEL REDDING

The greatest rock guitarist of all time, with a raw, blues-influenced style that brought fire and emotion 

to rock music unseen before or sinceIn his brief four-year reign as a superstar, 

Jimi Hendrix expanded the vocabulary of the electric rock guitar more than anyone before or since. 

Hendrix was a master at coaxing all manner of unforeseen sonics from his instrument, often 

with innovative amplification experiments that produced astral-quality feedback and roaring distortion. 

His frequent hurricane blasts of noise and dazzling showmanship -- he could and would play behind 

his back and with his teeth and set his guitar on fire -- has sometimes obscured his considerable 

gifts as a songwriter, singer, and master of a gamut of blues, R&B, and rock styles

'AXIS: BOLD AS LOVE'

NOTES: There is no insert in the US issue [1968], which has the lyrics on the inside spread. 

Polydor issues in Europe do not have printed lyrics and the French has a different sleeve. 

The mono issues were available in UK, US, Australia and New Zealand [US issues on cover have "mono" 

in l/c on 1st issue & "mono" or "stereo" in serif caps on 2nd+ issues] - stereo available worldwide. 

All issues have a 2nd A-Side mix, after the original A-side Master was lost. 

The mono has distinct differences in the [separate] mix to the stereo, most noticeable in the vocals.

Jimi Hendrix's second album followed up his groundbreaking debut effort with a solid collection 

of great tunes and great interactive playing between himself, Noel Redding, Mitch Mitchell, 

and the recording studio itself. Wisely retaining manager Chas Chandler to produce the album 

and Eddie Kramer as engineer, Hendrix stretched further musically than the first album, 

but even more so as a songwriter. He was still quite capable of coming up with spacy rockers like 

"You Got Me Floating," "Up from the Skies," and "Little Miss Lover," radio-ready to follow 

on the commercial heels of "Foxey Lady" and "Purple Haze." But the beautiful, wistful ballads 

"Little Wing," "Castles Made of Sand," "One Rainy Wish," and the title track set closer show 

remarkable growth and depth as a tunesmith, harnessing Curtis Mayfield soul guitar to Dylanesque 

lyrical imagery and Fuzz Face hyperactivity to produce yet another side to his grand psychedelic 

musical vision. These are tempered with Jimi's most avant-garde tracks yet, "EXP" 

and the proto-fusion jazz blowout of "If 6 Was 9."…(AllMusic)
