<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
AXIS: BOLD AS LOVE was
the follow-up to ARE YOU EXPERIENCED?, and represented a much more
conscious use of the recording studio's possibilities. Where his live
shows continued to showcase the raw rocking power of the Experience, the
recording studio gave Hendrix the composer/arranger a broader palette.
There
are still plenty of powerful blues/rock-inflected songs, such as the
menacing "If 6 Was 9," the rolling "Spanish Castle Magic" and the
spatial title tune. But "Up From The Skies" is a jazzy trio romp,
featuring Hendrix's bluesy, vocalized wah-wah pedal. And on the ballads
"Little Wing" and "Castles Made Of Sand," Hendrix shifts the focus from
the band to the silvery chord/melody accompaniments he often employed to
complement his vocals. They are an orchestral effect unto themselves.
