• Track Listing

This set offers the last word on the oft-bastardized and adulterated early Hendrix sidemen recordings with the Isley Brothers, Don Covay, Little Richard and others. Then come the unreleased and commercially unavailable studio recordings and live recordings with the Experience and Band of Gypsys from 1967 to 1970, like never before released (or even bootlegged) alternate versions of classics like Are You Experienced; Fire; May This Be Love; Love or Confusion, and many more, and the eagerly awaited debut of new songs like Hear My Freedom; Hound Dog Blues, and Lonely Avenue. Still more highlights: acoustic and electric home recordings of Long Hot Summer Night; 1983 (A Merman I Shall Turn Out to Be); My Friend, and Angel; a revelatory electric demo version of Bob Dylan’s Tears of Rage; an unreleased version of Everlasting First, Jimi’s 1970 collaboration with Love’s Arthur Lee, and more!
