Biography

Widely recognized as one of the most creative and influential musicians of the 20th century, Jimi Hendrix pioneered the explosive possibilities of the electric guitar. Hendrix's innovative style of combining fuzz, feedback and controlled distortion created a new musical form. Because he was unable to read or write music, it is nothing short of remarkable that Jimi Hendrix's meteoric rise in the… Read more in Amazon's Jimi Hendrix Store

5.0 out of 5 stars A Passage to India(n), May 12, 2010
By 
This review is from: Axis Bold As Love CD/DVD (Audio CD)
"Axis: Bold as Love" was one of Jimi Hendrix's most brilliant, original works of music. It's a strange irony that while Hendrix was proud of his Cherokee heritage, when he said he was Indian, his British collaborators probably thought of their recently independent colony... and hence the Hindu imagery in their album art. The music is electrifying.

"Axis" opens with "Exp",a concept album about life in outer space. In a sense, the Psychedelic Shaman foreshadowed The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust "Spanish Castle Magic" has a flamenco feel to it, Hendrix was also foreshadowing the Latin psychedelic rock of Carlos Santana Multi-Dimensional Warrior "Castles Made of Sand" is a companion to the Grateful Dead's "Sand Castles/Glass Camels" on Blues for Allah He was the source of inspiration for the psychedelic movement. There are classics such as the anthemic "If 6 was 9" and "Little Wing." It ends with the powerful "Bold as Love."

The companion DVD is far better than the ones with The Beatles Stereo Box Set Those mainly consist of Paul and Ringo saying,"We had lots of fun." The companion DVD for "Axis" goes into detail on Hendrix's inspirations, instrumentation, anyone with an appreciation of music theory will find it fascinating. Hendrix was a rarity--he was as much a genius in the studio as he was onstage.

"Axis" is bold music, bold as love!

Best mastering of Hendrix I've heard since the orig LP's

5.0 out of 5 stars An awe-inspiring album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, plain and simple, February 4, 2011
By 
Eric S. Kim (Southern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Axis Bold As Love CD/DVD (Audio CD)
In today's generation, where Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift dominate the radio, I'm so glad that I've found many alternatives (one of them being the legendary Jimi Hendrix and The Jimi Hendrix Experience). After the first album, Are You Experienced, in comes Axis: Bold as Love. This is a stunningly satisfying album that you just HAVE to listen from beginning to end. Every track on this album (even the non-musical opener "EXP") is something of a marvel. Songs like "Little Wing," "Wait Until Tomorrow," and "If 6 was 9" are solid gold. "One Rainy Wish," my personal favorite on the album, is undoubtedly one of the greatest from Hendrix. "She's So Fine," the only song on this album sung by Noel Redding, is musically rich and lyrically entrancing. "Little Miss Lover" is a little off here and there, but it's great nonetheless.

I'm 23 years old, but I wish I became a fan of Jimi Hendrix much MUCH sooner. This is awe-inspiring, sometimes godly, rock music.

Grade: 9.9/10
