Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced
Reprise Records RS-6261. The vinyl is in near mint condition and appears to have been played maybe once at most. The cover is also in near mint condition. A Canadian stereo pressing. This is an original first pressing on the Reprise label. As opposed to the American labels this Reprise label is all in black. Manufactured and distributed in Canada by the Compo Company Ltd. out of Lachine, Quebec. Most other early Canadian pressings are the three colour labels and all later ones are the tan labels. I have never seen one of these in my store (in business for 16 years) or on Ebay. Impossibly rare!! A rare record in this condition to add to your collection.
One of the most stunning debuts in rock history, and one of the definitive albums of the psychedelic era. On Are You Experienced?, Jimi Hendrix synthesized various elements of the cutting edge of 1967 rock into music that sounded both futuristic and rooted in the best traditions of rock, blues, pop, and soul. It was his mind-boggling guitar work, of course, that got most of the ink, building upon the experiments of British innovators like Jeff Beck and Pete Townshend to chart new sonic territories in feedback, distortion, and sheer volume. It wouldn't have meant much, however, without his excellent material, whether psychedelic frenzy ("Foxey Lady," "Manic Depression," "Purple Haze"), instrumental freak-out jams ("Third Stone From the Sun"), blues ("Red House," "Hey Joe"), or tender, poetic compositions ("The Wind Cries Mary") that demonstrated the breadth of his songwriting talents. Not to be underestimated were the contributions of drummer Mitch Mitchell and bassist Noel Redding, who gave the music a rhythmic pulse that fused parts of rock and improvised jazz. Many of these songs are among Hendrix's very finest; it may be true that he would continue to develop at a rapid pace throughout the rest of his brief career, but he would never surpass his first LP in terms of consistently high quality.
