Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live At The Hollywood Bowl: August 18, 1967

Description

On this August 18, 1967, the vast majority of the 17,000 spectators in Los Angeles who had come to see the headliners The Mamas & The Papas were taken by surprise by the musicality and showmanship of Jimi Hendrix. Now, the rest of the world can enjoy this set for the first time, because surprisingly, not a single second of this live recording has ever been released before, whether through official channels or otherwise.Including legendary tracks like "Purple Haze", "Foxey Lady" and "Fire", this album has been specially prepared by Jimi Hendrix's historic team (Eddie Kramer, Hendrix's longtime sound engineer, recently restored the audio, and Bernie Grundman, winner of three Grammy Awards, is the mastering engineer). The album will be accompanied by never-before-seen photos taken that evening, immortalizing the band's performance, as well as backstage encounters with The Mamas & The Papas.
