Never-released material Jimi had been working on before he died. [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00328G4V6/ref=s9_newr_bw_ir03?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=06K3J3YZR839DFZ2YMV9&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=478047871&pf_rd_i=5174"]Check it out[/ame].
Hendrix had been moving toward a more blues-influenced sound, and this material reflects that shift; 3 never-released tracks and the rest never-released versions of previous work.

I'd heard about thus, but very little details. Very nice, thanks

I approach this with some trepidation. There's been alot of Hendrix releases since his death that were just absolute garbage.
Hoping that's not the case here. -

You could just you know, download the album now.

Just FYI for all you Jimi Hendrix fans -- I urge you to pick up this month's Guitar World Magazine (actually April '10). You will probably really enjoy the CD-ROM it comes with: a pretty lengthy interview/demo with Joe Satriani who recounts his own "Hendrix experience" and how it launched his beginnings as a guitarist, mainly inspired by Hendrix -- he talks about solving the "chord fragment" lead/rhythm style Jimi played with and how a lot of his own style was born from Jimi's improvisational stage explorations. Also on there is a break down of the Valleys of Neptune versions of Stone Free and Red House done by Andy Aledort, who was in the Experience Hendrix tribute band for a long time.
Whether you are a guitar player or not, this is some top notch insight into Hendrix's genious and impact as a musician, and how he literally laid the foundation for guitar rock of the last few decades. Even if you are just curious why Jimi Hendrix is such a big deal still to this day, this issue will show you the answer.
This preview doesn't really do it justice, but here it is:

I've been bumping this song on the regular for weeks now (well all the different versions too, BSG one, Dylan, etc.)

You could start with what is considered his [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Electric-Ladyland-Jimi-Hendrix-Experience/dp/B000002P5U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1270019495&sr=1-1"]best non-blues[/ame]; or [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Are-You-Experienced-CD-DVD/dp/B0033AGPEO/ref=ntt_mus_ep_dpt_2"]my favorite[/ame] non-blues; or his [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Blues-Jimi-Hendrix/dp/B000002OSK/ref=ntt_mus_ep_dpt_8"]sick blues[/ame] set.
edit: Try his [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000002UVX/ref=cm_cr_asin_lnk"]live blues[/ame] with Buddy Miles. Transcendent.maynard likes this.
