Our Take

The release of the remastered edition of Jimi Hendrix's "First Rays Of The New Rising Sun" is like a gift from the musical gods themselves. This album showcases Hendrix at his experimental best, pushing the boundaries of rock and blues with his unparalleled guitar skills and soulful vocals.

His debut album, "Are You Experienced," catapulted him to fame in 1967, showcasing his incredible talent and innovative approach to music. Hendrix's live performances were legendary, with his wild antics on stage earning him a reputation as one of the most exciting performers of his time. From setting his guitar on fire to playing it with his teeth, Hendrix knew how to captivate an audience like no one else.

Despite his untimely death, his influence on the music industry is still felt to this day, with countless artists citing him as a major inspiration. Jimi Hendrix may have been gone too soon, but his legacy lives on through his timeless music and unforgettable performances.
