A stunning limited edition Hendrix pack containing the Previously commercially unreleased official 'bootleg' Paris/Ottawa live 1968 concert on CD, a swirled coloured vinyl version of his 1967 performance at L'Olympia, Paris, recorded for French radio & never before released to the public, a poster, postcards, badges, iPod Skin, guitar picks & a specially created Hendrix Woodstock t-shirt to celebrate the 40th anniversary of his headline performance there. It all comes in a fantastic presentation box.

3.0 out of 5 stars Where's the music?, November 26, 2009

This review is from: Live 1967/68 Paris/Ottawa - Combo Vinyl and CD Fan Pack w/Large T-shirt (Vinyl)

I don't believe that there is any new music in this fan pack. The CD is a copy of Dagger #10 - "JHE Paris & Ottawa Live 1968", which most fans would have already bought a year ago when it came out. It could have included their new release Dagger #11 - "Live At Woburn", but it doesn't. And contrary to the first review, the music on the record is different from the CD. The colored splatter vinyl is cool, but the album would appear to be a restamping of the first record from a double album released on purple vinyl in 2004, still available on CD, called "JHE Paris 67/San Francisco 68", Dagger #6. Authentic Hendrix claims in their pre-release statement that this record would include all 9 songs from the Paris concert, but it only has the same 7 songs previously available. There are dozens of concerts and hundreds of hours of unreleased Hendrix recordings out there, but Dagger chose to repackage the same old tracks, what a shame. What Would Jimi Do?

And the Pikcard contains 4, not 3, plectrums/guitar picks.

I am a huge Hendrix fan. Have been since the age of 13. At 54 now I am still amazed at this mans music. I often wonder what he would be like today. Which directions would he have traveled. He was an explorer in multi dimensions of sound. This set is a fine snap shot of the experience you would feel at one of his concerts. ENERGY UNBOUND! I got this set when it first came out. It was added to my extensive Jimi Hendrix collection and is a stand out. The cool items included make it even more worthwhile. 5 stars for sure. For the true Jimi fan it is a must addition. I should add the music speaks for itself. Live on. Play on Jimi. We miss you!

This is a great package for Hendrix fans, old and new. The mini posters look great mounted in frames or shadow boxes and of course the music is heaven. In a world filled with worries, it was nice to listen to these old Hendrix recordings and remember just how simple life was in the late 60's and early 70's. This set is a real must-have for Hendrix fans and I'm surprised that it wasn't introduced sooner.
