The sensational sophomore release of The Jimi Hendrix
Experience highlights Hendrix's own evolving musical experimentalism and
acknowledges his early musical influences of soul and R&B.
Remastered from the original two-track mixdown master tapes, Axis: Bold
As Love's 13-songs show the evolving trio as they neared the height of
their career. Features the seminal classics "Spanish Castle Magic,"
"Little Wing," "Castles Made Of Sand," and the classic Easy Rider
anthem, "If 6 Was 9."
"This is the album that let the other
guitar greats of the era know that Hendrix was the greatest�that he�d
transcended the blues riffs, the Chuck Berry-isms and the electrified
C&W picking and taken string bending to new territory." - Michael Fremer, www.musicangle.com, Music 10/10, Sound 9/10
"...Axis
is a leisurely, bluesy jewel; Hendrix slowed down on "Little Wing" and
"If 6 Was 9" to allow his guitar space to breathe as well as burn. "
'Little Wing' is like one of these beautiful girls that come around
sometimes," he said. "They might be spaced, they might be kinda strung
out. But everybody has a right to . . . their beliefs, if they want to
believe that a star is purple, or whatever." Like Hendrix, Axis was
cryptic and bewitching." - www.rollingstone.com
"Blissed
out from his appearance at Monterey Pop, Hendrix brought a delicate
touch to this ballad at a 1967 London session. In a mere 145 seconds, he
conjured a gossamer reverie. Hendrix played one of his most lyrical
solos through a Leslie speaker cabinet (creating an oscillating sound)
and later added glockenspiel to complete the mood." - Rolling Stone
"[A]s
good as the stereo mix and well worth having... [T]here's power in the
mono focus, and the drums in particular are well served... [T]he QRP
pressings are dead quiet and physically perfect." - Michael Fremer, www.analogplanet.com, Music 9/10, Sound 9/10!
