Title: Novice Hendrix buyers, BEWARE!
Review: It seems strange that Experience Hendrix/MCA chose this show as an official release over some other great shows (Royal Albert Hall '69, Berkeley '70, Monterey '67). For Hendrix fans, it is about time they finally get a complete official release of this show. But for first time buyers, don't let a fancy marketing campaign and nice packaging fool you. While this concert has some inspired moments and some brilliant guitar work, overall it is a very strained, sloppy, and uninspired performance by Hendrix. Experienced fans of Hendrix will see past the flaws and marvel at the brilliance, but for you first time buyers exploring Hendrix for the first time, consider other releases first. Unfortunately Experience Hendrix/MCA has not released many live albums yet , so the safest bet is the BBC Sessions release.
