Jimi Hendrix

UK 1972 press. Record plays with a light crackle. Sleeve has minor wear.
A budget-line UK comp from Music For Pleasure that scoops up some of Jimi’s early pre-Experience recordings and covers. Don’t come here expecting Are You Experienced fireworks — this is raw R&B club material, Hendrix as a sideman and session player finding his feet. Still, it’s a fascinating glimpse at the foundations before he blew the doors off rock. FFO: Hendrix before the pyrotechnics, smoky clubs full of covers, and the sound of genius warming up.
