The UK version first appeared in April 1968, only four months after the band's second studio album, Axis: Bold as Love, and while they were working on their third. Containing their first four UK singles (and their respective B-sides) in addition to four standout tracks from Are You Experienced, Smash Hits became exactly that - a #5 album in the UK and one that had a long chart life. It also marked the first appearance on album of "Burning of the Midnight Lamp", five months ahead of its placement on Electric Ladyland.
In the U.S., however, things were done a little differently. Jimi's then-record label, Reprise Records, felt that a greatest hits collection was far too premature and waited until mid-1969 (and, coincidentally, the break-up of the band once Noel Redding suddenly quit) to issue a different version of the same album. Now with Electric Ladyland in the mix, there was more to choose from. There were also tracks that had been elbowed off of the UK edition of Are You Experienced in 1967 to make way for "Hey Joe", "Purple Haze" and "The Wind Cries Mary". As a result, the U.S. version of Smash Hits - which reached #6 in its territory - is more balanced and more representative of the band's career, yet still failed to include any tracks from Axis: Bold As Love, and only two from Electric Ladyland.
