Classic Albums - Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland

The story of Jimi Hendrix's epochal 1968 double album is told in words, music, and rare archival footage. Also included are interviews with Experience bandmates Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell, as well as Steve Winwood (who played organ on the album), and, in his last interview, Chas Chandler, the manager (and former Animals bass player) who nurtured Hendrix's career from its infancy.
Hendrix's most experimental album, ELECTRIC LADYLAND features the legendary guitarist using the studio itself as a major instrument to enhance his already adventurous sound. Unfortunately, this sprawling masterpiece would be Hendrix's final studio album before his untimely death in 1970. Songs include "Crosstown Traffic," "Voodoo Chile," "Gypsy Eyes," "All Along the Watchtower," "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)," and many more.

    Where's the music?

    I knew this was a documentary but not one track is played in full, only a few seconds, and then some other dude buts in. Great if you want all the history stuff... more
