Jimi Hendrix: Band Of Gypsys - 50th Anniversary Edition (180g) Vinyl LP
"As the 1960s drew to a close, Jimi Hendrix was at the apex of his fame and influence. His first three albums with The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced, Axis: Bold As Love and Electric Ladyland—had established him as both a musical visionary and an international superstar. By the end of the decade, though, Hendrix was looking for new musical challenges and feeling the need to work with new collaborators. Towards that end, he assembled the Band of Gypsys lineup, with bassist Billy Cox, an old friend from Hendrix’s early days playing in R&B combos, and drummer Buddy Miles, already well known for his work with the Electric Flag and the Buddy Miles Express. The resulting album is a revolutionary fusion of blues, funk and rock that stands as a unique chapter in Hendrix’s seminal body of work." - Capitol Records
