·       JIMI HENDRIX - WAR HEROES - ORIGINAL 1972 REPRISE RECORDS STEREO LP MS-2103

 

·       ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING

 

 

*** STILL SEALED GUARANTEED ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING ***

 

 

PLEASE NOTE: THIS ITEM COMES FROM THE INCREDIBLE, SINGLE-OWNER COLLECTION WE ACQUIRED A WHILE AGO, IN WHICH ITEMS ORIGINALLY BOUGHT BY THE OWNER FROM THE MID-'60s to THE MID-'70s WERE KEPT STILL SEALED IN A NEAR-LABORATORY, TIME-CAPSULE CONDITIONS AND IN PRACTICALLY CLIMATE- AND HUMIDITY- CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT.  CONDITIONS OF SOME OF THESE ITEMS RANGE FROM IMPECCABLE TO TRULY UNBELIEVABLE. SOME OF THESE BEAUTIFUL MUSEUM PIECES LOOKED SO PERFECT THAT WE HAD TO REINSPECT AND RE-EXAMINE THEM A FEW TIMES TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE NOT RECENT REISSUES (REST ASSURED THEY ARE NOT -- THESE ARE ALL 40-50 YEAR OLD STILL SEALED ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSINGS AS YOU MAY NEVER FIND AGAIN!!)

 

·       GUARANTEED ORIGINAL TAN REPRISE RECORDS 'RIVERBOAT' LABEL WITHOUT 'WEA' LOGO ALONG THE PERIMETER OF THE LABEL  (NO OTHER STOCK LABELS EXIST)

 

·       THE THICKNESS OF THE VINYL, THE APPEARANCE AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE COVER, LABEL’S LOGO AND OTHER PERIPHERAL ELEMENTS OF THE COVER, ARE ALL PERFECTLY CONSISTENT WITH THE ORIGINAL, FIRST PRESSING OF THIS TITLE.

 

·       TWO “BREATHE” (AIR) HOLES NOTED ON THE SHRINK WRAP

 

·       THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

 

·       ORIGINAL, THIN CARDBOARD COVER (NO THICK CARDBOARD COVERS WERE EVER PRODUCED FOR THIS TITLE)

 

·       FAIRLY THICK VINYL PRESSING On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the thickness of the vinyl as 7.

 

·       This album has been out of print and unavailable on Compact Disc or in any other format for many years, and there are currently no plans to reissue it on CD or DVD that we are aware of. At present, this is the ONLY way you can obtain this great album

A companion to his final studio album (Cry of Love), this is the final batch of recordings Jimi Hendrix completed before his death, and contains some of the last recordings he ever intended public to hear. In many ways, this really is a "Cry of Love, vol.2" album. Jimi's conversion from Fender to Gibson resulted in a clearer and sharper sound, which was much jazzier, but - alas - much less improvisational and spontaneous in nature. The songs assembled on this album are those which for technical or other reasons were not included in "Cry of love", issued posthumously in 1971, but probably should have been, because some of Hendrix best songs are here. Indeed,  some of these tracks were included in Hendrix’ legendary Woodstock performance. The songs are: Bleeding Heart - Highway Chile - Tax Free - Peter Gunn Catastrophe - Midnight - 3 little bears - Beginning – Isabella.

 

In the late 1980’s and early 1990’s , as the legal battle between Jimi Hendrix’ family and his long-time manager Allan Douglas heated up, we experienced the arrival of two revisionist pieces of history: The first, Allan Douglas’ "Voodoo Soup" album , which contains some of the material from WAR HEROES - and the second, a few years later , titled "The First Rays of the New Rising Sun", issued by Hendrix’ estate , claiming exactly the same thing, sporting some nice sound and plain godawful pseudo-psychedelic cover which would make Jimi make a triple salto-mortale in his grave. So far, nobody managed to find out what Jimi Hendrix’s true intentions were and how his final albums would have looked had he himself been involved in its release. WE DO KNOW, HOWEVER, that these are the last recordings Jimi did and that he intended most - if not all - of them to be included in his final album. Courtesy of Hendrix' estate, it will never be issued on CD again and this gorgeous 1972 album is now on its slow way to a complete extinction.
