As you might suspect, there are a lot of Jimi DVDs out these days. Most of them involve live performance video footage. This DVD does not. In many ways this might not appeal to the typical Jimi enthusiast. OK, all of that said, I still enjoyed the DVD quite a bit. This is because it offers something the other DVDs do not - a chance to hear various tracks/songs of Jimi's 3rd album minus all other parts except Jimi. So there is opportunity to hear just Jimi's track for a given song. I appreciate that this might not appeal to many fans but I found it a very insightful glimpse of the artist. For example, when I heard the rythmn track on Crosstown Traffic I was just blown away. I have listened to the song many many times but this is different. Minus the piano, bass, and drums, you can clearly see/hear what Jimi brought to the table. In fact, Derek Trucks has a cover of 'Home In Your Heart' that always hit me right. Turns out the verse is all Jimi Crosstown Traffic - something I never noticed before. A deep groove that Jimi delivered better and a long time ago.Read full review
Having seen the meteoric rise from the man that played with the greats before he went to London and became a legend....Others have tried to copy him but no one even comes close....I played all my vinyl LP's to death and have started to replace all on cd...Now a DVD of one of my favorite albums...
because i love hendrix.the dvd really made me realize what a great guitarist he was.especially the experience dvd.there is nobody i mean nobody out there that plays like him.
I did like the differing views from his mgr and bandmates, very informative. Bit of a montage, sound was fine, chopped up performances though. Must for any Hendrix fan.
The engineer and musicians are interesting and cool. Instrumentation is broken down and isolated by tracks, along with a view of the crazy techniques, skills and styles of Hendrix and team to produce the collage like album.
