Thanks to the guitar, Jimi Hendrix became the ultimate supersonic star, a champion, a cosmic role model. Listening to this box set, we will ask ourselves a few questions. In particular: what is still in stock?
Here it is, this is that moment; since a legal confrontation that caused a great stir (in the court gazettes), Jimi Hendrix's adoptive half-sister has managed to recover the management of the entirety of the Seattle prodigy's tapes. 352 hours of unreleased material. Somewhere, someone listened to it all, probably attentively. He produced this demanding 4-CD box set. What did Jimi Hendrix do? All his life the man played the guitar. He played it like no one else, with his teeth, with madness and with ambivalence. Jimi Hendrix gave everything to this cruel mistress and she gave him back a hundredfold. Thanks to the guitar, Jimi Hendrix became the ultimate supersonic star, a champion, a cosmic model. Listening to this box set, we will ask ourselves a few questions. In particular: what is still in stock? What happened to the jams with Stevie Wonder, Brian Jones, John McLaughlin, BB King, Johnny Winter, Robert Wyatt and Jim Morrison? Will we have to wait until the 51st anniversary of Jimi's death to have paid access to "the whole lot", remastered concerts from Maui Hawaii, Stockholm and the Olympia?
