5.0 out of 5 stars Three Master Musicians, October 8, 2006

This is a fine companion to the first Cd by these guys 'Purple Haze' .. These guys are masters of their respective instruments ,all are legends in their own right .. their interpretations on both discs of Jimi's stuff is a very nice listen ..John does not play like Jimi ,John is John , and what a fine guitarist he is..His ECM work is wonderful , especially when teamed with Charles Lloyd . I like the track 'Jimi Meets Miles' on this disc .. makes you wonder ..boy , if only they could have got together in the studio! Great Jazz Power Trio here!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a Hendrix imitation, but a fine tribute, February 12, 2003

This review is from: Foxy Lady: Tribute to Jimi Hendrix (Audio CD)

Four lengthy interpretations of Hendrix tunes by a relaxed trio of John Abercrombie, Lonnie Smith, and Marvin Smith--this second effort by the trio lags behind their first, less atmospheric effort. Abercrombie retains his identity while spooling out tasty lines of dissonance and happy threads of jazzy melody. But it is Smith who most impresses, pulverizing with abrupt keyboard washes from Mars, while still maintaining a groove and a direction.

I GUESS AT THIS POINT THE GREAT POPULARITY OF JIMI HENDRIX, THIRTY YEARS AFTER THE FACT, IS NOW SUBJECT TO ANYONE THAT WANTS TO RECORD AND USE HIS GREATNESS TO DECIEVE MUSIC LOVERS. I GUESS JOE PESCHI IS NEXT IN LINE!
