It's the Summer of Love!,
By Doug "Doug" (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Highlights from BBC Sessions (Paperback)
The transcriptions in the 'Highlights From the BBC Sessions' songbook are accurate, and provide an interesting array of Jimi's better known songs, covers, and blues.
Although a glaring ommission is 'Driving South' which is performed thrice on the album. However, the particularly scintillating version (Disc 1/Track 17) is transcribed in Hal Leonard's 'Radio One' guitar songbook. Other cuts in the 'Radio One' songbook omitted in the 'BBC Sessions' songbook are: 'Love or Confusion', 'Purple Haze', 'Fire', 'Foxey Lady', and 'Stone Free'. However, the 'BBC Sessions' songbook contains many songs not in the 'Radio One' songbook: 'I Was Made to Love Her', 'Sunshine of Your Love', 'A Brand New Sound', 'Can I Please Crawl Out Your Window', and 'Jammin'. The album 'Radio One' was an earlier release of Jimi's BBC session, but not even half as extensive as the 'BBC Sessions" album. Overall, this songbook is quite good, appealing particularly to those wanting to discover Jimi's live 'bare bones' approach, over learning about his multi-tracked and studio manipulated performances. I highly recommend the 'Radio One' songbook, too. |
