I had forgotten how good this sounds

Here they are:

Ashamed to say but I never bothered with the Hawks! The closest I came was the the Live album, Space Ritual and Doreme Faso Latido....Loved the single though with Lemmy on vocals, Silver Machine :)

On the TT...

Wha!!!!!You finally bit the bullet :) It'll take a while for it to sink in especially on the long ones but do give it a chance.....

I love it. I think its better than the other album to be honest. Thanks for the recommendation.

Brilliant! Delighted to be of assistance :) BTW it was John Fahey's own favourite recording too....Now if I could only get up the stairs to get my own copy down :(

Miraculous stuff lurks inside this 8 Lp box set with stunning sonics to match.







Amazon Review:

 The Best of the Experience Hendrix Boxsets
30 Dec 2011 By Mr. R. Powell
After having bought West Coast Seattle Boy last year I was slightly wary of buying this one. Although excellent in many parts, as I said in my review, there is no discernable difference between some of the alternate takes in that box set and the originals on the albums. But I could not resist it too long and found this on the Amazon market place for a reasonable price. And am I glad I did. There's no need to go back and forth between the original albums and this set to try and hear if there is an extra string bend here or a bit more wah wah there, the differences are obvious straight away to anyone who is even slightly familiar with the original albums. It gives you the chance to see (or hear) how Hendrix's songs evolved, how he was prepared to bring in extra musicians to complete a song or how he was prepared to jettison them if need be. It also shows how important Chas Chandler was in tightening things up . OK so many of the live tracks on here have now been released elsewhere but on the whole most of the stuff on here sounds fresh. Also the remastering is excellent, the sound on most of the tracks is as good as anything that EH have put out recently.....

Just for old times sake

Hello again....Could you stay a little longer this time :(

Dermot I'm like a badly tuned radio, fading in and out.

LOL Just seeing this now! Like Radio Luxembourg :) I was watching a BBC programme on the history of Light Entertainment on Sat. last and I had to take a sharp intake of breath as the God's of my youth blithely flashed by on the screen: Pete Murray, David Jacobs, Alan Freeman, Kid Jenson, Jimmy Saville, Tony Blackburn etc etc My God, how did I end up where I am now :(

By the way did you hear about my unfortunate accident?

No Dermot What happened?
