- Finally some more Jimi!! Thank you Joel, I appreciate this request so much. I've been meaning to get back to Jimi since we haven't done anything since his Woodstock show... That's a shame! This was fan friggin tastic. The first song was an absolute mind fluck... and the second topped it. The whole band is SO talented... These guys were so ahead of their time.

Mitch was purely a jazz drummer ( He hated rock'n'roll ) ... But he was thrown together with Jimi along with Noel Redding ( Who was a guitarist and never played bass before ) Together the three of them established a deep connection and made something great.
Mitch did not hate rock, he even filled in with the Who when they were between their first drummer and Keith Moon. He also wasn't thrown together with Jimi, he auditioned and ended up in a tie with Ansley Dunbar. He got the gig with Jimi by winning a coin toss. Noel had come to audition as a guitarist with the New Animals, Jimi's manager Chas Chandler's old band. That job was filled but Jimi liked Noel's hair style so they asked him if he wanted a job playing bass. He said he would if Chas would give him bus fare home and that was that.
Jimi may not have invented the language of rock guitar but he expanded it enormously and his influence totally changed the playing field for everyone else. For decades...
That double-stop heavy, rhythm-as-lead style of a song like Little Wing, you really can't do anything like that now without everyone knowing where it comes from. And so many people think of him as just a guitar slinger, when songs like these demonstrate how adventurous they were in the studio.
The Best. some came after him, but none did what he did. He changed Rock music overnight in a London Pub. Jaws were dropping, including Eric Clapton's, and Pete Townsand of The Who. Townsand looked at a visibly shaken Clapton, who's trembling hand could not light the cigarette in his mouth. "Pete grabbed Eric's shaking hand, and steadied it, lighting his smoke for him. Townsand looked at Clapton and whispered, "This Bloke is going to put us all out of business." This isn't Bull, you can find Pete Townsand's account, out of his own mouth on you tube, along with other stars who witnessed Hendrix bring the house down, playing "Killing floor with Jack Bruce on Bass, and Ginger Baker on Drums. Yes, Hendrix played with "Cream" and took Erics spot on guitar. That's crazy. It's all true.
Those first three Hendrix albums are well over 50 years old..... and they still sound futuristic in 2024!
Burning of the midnight lamp!! 1983. Hendrix will live forever.
I'm the one that has to die when it's time for me to die, so let me live my life the way I want to, is one of the things that has governed my life
Yeah, me too.
Jimi,Jimi,Jimi. Fearless creativity!!!
They weren’t ahead of their time. It was the time.
You got that right 👍
They did have DMT in the 60s. It was made illegal in 1971.
I thought so. I was thinking maybe he's talking about a different DMT, but it definitely was used in the sixties (but not by me).
Jimi was so damn good. He was such a guiding point in my youth and still today. Bold As Love is so soulful....Such a great album...
He was a force of nature. And I can tell that just from my brief encounters with his work. I can’t imagine those who were there when he first entered the atmosphere
‘Are you Experienced’ is the best mesmerizing album of 1967… I was also 10y.o
That was our introduction to best Rock Guitarist…Even still today
Yeah I bet this was earth shattering when it landed. I can’t even imagine.
Changes how people thought about music. Thing had been very tight and muted. Folks wore suits on stage and had dance numbers. Jimi came along and all of that went out the window. Changed everything forever.
@@claytonpaul4259The roll from rock'n'roll was dead after Jimi. "You'll never hear surf music again."
BTW, DMT was first synthesized in 1931.
Thank you for your comment!
And the use of it predates that for centuries too. I meant on wide scale usage like it is today. My apologies
He wasn't ahead of his time...his timing was perfect. 😊
The masses are out of time!
He created the time.
One of the best albums ever
Can't hear this tune without thinking of the flick 'Easy Rider' where most heard it for the first time
Two more bangers by Jimi. Thanks Joel and Lee.
Great choices! Two great songs from a great album. Jimi in the studio can be a surprise to those more familiar with his live performances. And the outro on Axis still brings the shivers every time....
jimi was my first concert seeing him play with his teeth and fire was crazy. always remember it. fantastic
His cover of All along the Watchtower is " his own" says Bob Dylan
And don't doubt Bob ever!!
Jimi is the goat and don't you ever forget it could go on forever the end of bold as love phasing is used for the first time on Jimi's guitar hendrix was light years ahead of his time
Jimi was in awe of Eric, Jeff and Jimmy. I saw him say he takes his hat off to Beck and Page for their use of echo, feedback and distortion. 1967.
BOLD AS LOVE is a very underrated track. I think it is one of the group's best songs. There is an earlier instrumental take of Bold As Love that is fantastic. Jimi goes off on it. It is about 7 minutes long. It is on TH-cam and is definitely worth checking out.
This & Experienced are 2 of my fav albums of all time. Keep in mind I was 10 years old when they came on the scene & nobody was releasing or playing music like this so it was a total mf.
Dude I bet this shit absolutely blew the doors off of peoples craniums back when it came out. There is nothing you could compare it too. It’s almost completely original. Obviously Inspired at points. But they were decades ahead of the rest it seems
@@L33Reacts The quote I remember from one of his posthumous album's liner notes was "This was certainly nothing like the Cowsills!"
Lee...you need to react to "MAchine Gun"..from the Band of Gypsies album... it's a masterpiece and will blow your mind at how much he gets out of that guitar.
The best snd most iconic solo in history.
One of my favourites. Funny, the sound quality seemed quite poor compared to my vinyl bought the week it came out.
Three drunk guys will start a fight but these three stoned guys started a band.
Yeaup. I witnessed lots of that in ma youth. Me and ma stoner friends just chilled back and watch drunken hooligans f... themselves up.
When this song was first out, I fell in love with it. Some friends and I were partying in Topanga Canyon. A lot of us had taken LSD that day, including myself. We had a little transistor radio. We could barely get the "good" rock station to come in. They played "Axis" 3 times that day. Great day!
First heard these back in 1985 , when I was 15 , loved it ! I started collecting Hendrix albums , now I have about 30 albums , half dozen CD's , and a few DVDS , posters , ! I can listen to Hendrix for hours and hours !
Same, and only Jimi.
He wasn’t ahead of his time, it was his time, then his time ended.
Owsley Stanley is the “chemist” you’re referring to as being the main character in Steely Dan’s “Kid Charlemagne”. He was primarily a “sound tech” guy with The Grateful Dead and his chemistry was a sideline designed to supply “The Acid Tests” of the day. He brought The Dead’s sound system to a level never seen before, or since, with The Wall of Sound. He also was a recording engineer and responsible for many of The Dead’s early performances as well as other Bay Area bands (New Riders of The Purple Sage, Old and In The Way, etc) That’s the “Cliff Notes” view of Owsley. Brilliant guy!
They did have DMT in the sixties. It was just as visual then as now my friend.
I was also 10 when this album came out - only cottoned on to it when I was 18.
They did have DMT in the 1960’s and 1970’s. They called it the “businessman’s trip”.
I cry every time I hear his music, knowing he was here...and then he was gone....
Thanks Joel! Great picks as usual.
Nothing beats this tune on a great system thru speakers than can handle the No 11 setting on the dial
If 6 Were 9 was featured in Easy Rider.
As far as Jimi goes, Nobody was ever that good. He is the best that ever was and ever will be.
Some trippy Jimi ... and then Bold as Love ... nice pair
Jimi personified the difference between the technically proficient guitar player and the pure innovator. Copying is easy, creating is difficult
Bingo!! Nailed it !!
I concur. Take it, mash it, reinvent it. Leave enough of a hint of its roots.
Psychedelia at its best!! Most likely to be your favorite guitar players favorite guitar player. Awesome reaction Lee.
Chas Chandler,the "Animals" Bass Player, Hendrix's Manager put together the Experience,with two English players,Noel Redding on bass, and super drummer,Mitch Mitchell on drums! Jimi got famous in England first then came back to U.S. for Monterrey Pop!
Jimi liked both Mitch and Aynsley Dunbar - he decided by a coin toss.
Wonderful album.
I hope I can listen to the rest! This was utterly fantastic.
Fan since 69. Bold As Love outro solo, imo is the greatest guitar solo of our time. Takes you beyond the Stratosphere and you ain't comin back.
This is the album regular blues and rock fans get lost. For me this was the most creative album back to back produced, and he knew it!
The piece melody of the guitar in Bold as Love is a Masterpiece
From this LP: Castles Made of Sand, Little Miss Lover, & Spanish Castle Magic
Bold as Love is underrated. Def in my top 10 Hendrix songs! ♥
For me, there was Jimi when it came to guitar-oriented rock, and The Beatles when it came to songwriting. They were above all others. And that's no disrespect to the Stones, The Who, Zeppelin, Cream, etc. - so many truly phenomenal bands back then. One thing I've never understood - a lot of people didn't think Hendrix was a great singer. I alwyas thought he was. And a great songwriter as well. He was THE creative force in the band. Just as The Beatles inspired so many people to start up bands and to write their own songs in the mid 60's, Jimi inspired guitar players. And they both continue to inspire people all these years later.
There are some great songs on Axis Bold As Love - this, Little Wing, Castles Made Of Sand, Spanish Castle Magic, You Got Me Floating...
Axis is decidedly different than anything in the rest of Jimi’s catalog. Rather than primarily blues rock or soul/funk influenced, this is mote experimental and jazz based. It takes more time to get it and some never do. As a die hard fan since ‘67, even I need to be in the mood for it, while I am always up for his other works.
As another fan since 67 I agree with you. Back then we loved this and got it.
Two absolute masterpieces from one of only a handful of true geniuses in rock music. And it's not just Hendrix's revolutionary guitar playing, it's also his songwriting and production. Nobody else was doing what you just heard back in 1967. He was building layers and layers of guitars years before Jimmy Page incorporated it into Zeppelin's 1970's albums.
From this album, you should also check out "Little Wing", "Castles Made Of Sand" and "Spanish Castle Magic". It's a groundbreaking album, as was every album Hendrix did during his lifetime.
From his debut album, Are You Experienced?, you should just react to the album in it's entirety. Same goes for his third album, the double LP, Electric Ladyland.
And while we're talking about the most important figure in rock music history, you MUST react to his performance of "Machine Gun" from the Fillmore East on January 1st, 1970. It was on his 1970 live album Band Of Gypsys, and there is also a colour video footage of it floating around in TH-cam. Trust me, you've never seen or heard anything like his guitar playing in that song. It's like watching God play guitar. He makes it look like a toy.
Thanks for going down the Jimi Hendrix rabbit hole with us, man. And of these two tracks, I personally like "Bold As Love" slightly better, but they're both awesome.
Thanks man.
Jimi's grandmother was Native American, so that's what he meant when he requested an Indian theme lol And if you're into Anunaki and ufo legends, check out Curtis Knights story about when he and jimi had a ufo encounter. He claims jimi had been learning to telepathically contact aliens. Just a story? Idk but Jimi was different. Bold As Love possibly his best studio offering. They used phasing on the drum track which had never been done before iirc. Using stereo outputs they were able to achieve the 3d sound effect that would inspire the creation of surround sound. Jimi and his engineer Eddie Kramer were both ahead of their time. There are some tracks that have become progressively brickwalled over the digital editions, so if you can pick up a cd or vinyl some tracks will be a better experience. I've noticed on bold as love, on the cd the drum fill in the middle from right to left is much more subtle than the digital version.
This was not "ahead of its time." This WAS its time.
Bold As Love is just the BOMB. What a set of lyrics combining with awesome music! Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell were KILLERS in their own right.
When you make timeless music, it always seems like it’s ahead of its time.
HENDRIX, BOWIE WERE THEIR OWN "GENRES" 🎸❤❤❤❤🎸🎸🎸🎸😎😎😎😎👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Jimi didn’t get well known until he left America and came to England, and then America wanted him back
Chas Chandler was the bass players in "The Animals". He discovered Hendrix in a US club, brought him to England and put the other two players around him.
Jimi wanted the album cover art to reflect and honour his heritage, which was Cherokee on his mother's mother's side, probably said "Indian" and was misunderstood. It was cool art anyway and though Jimi was displeased, they went with it. Chas Chandler had been the bassist for the Animals, wished to get into management and producing. Linda Keith, then Keith Richards' GF told Chas he must see the guitarist she'd just seen in Greenwich Village. He did and scooped Jimi up and took him to London.
Love the "flanging" effect on 'Bold As Love', love everything about it in fact.
Jimi often played bass on Experience records, especially by the next record, 'Electric Ladyland', by which time Noel was tiring of endless experimentation and overdubs. I read something from Mitch Mitchell yesterday saying that Jimi's bass playing gave them the firmest foundation until army buddy Billy Cox came on board. Rest In Peace and Power, Jimi, Noel and Mitch. God bless Billy Cox. 🙏🏽🙄😊🤙🏼🎶❤🍁❤️✨️🕊
Yeah, Chas Chandler, bass player for the Animals. They met when Jimi went to England and then joined up with Noel and Mitch.
No one had heard anything like this guitar at the time.
The production quality was really a step up starting with Axis Bold as Love, and carried on through Electric Ladyland. If 6 was 9 is a statement of sort, and Bold as Love is must beautiful. Mitch Mitchell is one of the most under-rated drummers in my opinion, and I put him up in my top 5 all time.
Jimi expanded our appreciation of what's next. What a great time musically to be alive. 🍄🟫❤🤩✌️
Mitch is one of my favorite drummer's.
I think the end guitar effects were supposed to sound like seagulls, according to Jimmy.❤
Yeah, it's crazy, and part of the soundtrack of my life!
Jimi made the guitar sing.
My favorite Jimi song.
Hendrix is not for the timid. ✌️❤️
Wonderful!!!
Lots of debates on who the Guitar Goat is. I give the edge to Jimi because of his impact and muscianship. He wrote beautiful songs and pioneered sound effects/production techniques that changed music forever. Listen to Castles Made of Sand also from Axis. The lyrics are so bittersweet about loss, and the solo was recorded backwords!
Im a huge SRV fan, and saw him perform 8 times live. Stevie could channel Jimi for sure. He revitalized blues/rock in the 80s, and i still miss him today. Jimi and Stevie are hopefully jamming together for eternity. RIP.
@FURDOG1961 not a fan
Noel Redding once played through my bass amp at a club in Ft. Lauderdale called The Flying Machine where my band was doing a gig. He and Mitch Mitchell came in with Mike Pinera of Blues Image and Iron Butterfly to do a set. He asked to use my bass rig and of course I said yes.
Gary Leeds, aka Gary Walker, was drummer for the Walker Brothers (none of whom was actually named Walker). Vocalist Scott Walker did some amazing work ranging from subversive middle-of-the-road songs to weird stuff that will curl your hair.
They had STP
DMT was available in the late 1960's
@@bobcorbin3294 jage
One of the best song of Jimmy.I don't mind🤘
dmt in the 60's and seventies..............YES
Funny story about the album cover. Jimi had some Cherokee on his maternal side. So when he said he wanted some Indian motifs on this album cover the record company thought he meant India when in fact he meant native American. A similar thing happened on his next album cover as well for Electric Ladyland.
Congrats - Axis, Electric Ladyland, and Band Of Gypsies are incredible
" If 6 was 9 ". Only some people from that era knew what Jimi was talkin about in this title, and im about to explain its specific meaning that Jimi intended. Since the meaning is unknown to most people, of coarse it can mean what ever comes to mind or what ever fits in your world with it. I never understood it until 1989 and ive been familiar with this album since 1969. I was 11 then. In 1989 i came across a book that was telling many peoples predictions and experiences of the future. From famous ones to obscure. Joe Brandt had this experience in 1937 after he was concused by a fall from a horse. His vision took him to LA California. I think he lived in New York state. I wont tell the whole story, but when he was floating around in LA just before the earthquake he looked at a News paper but he couldnt, for some reason, work out whether the date on the News paper said 1969 or 1996. This story was a popular one back in the hippy 60's and was doing the rounds in those social circles by word of mouth etc. Imo this reached Hendrix and thus came about the song
" If 6 was 9 ". Listen to the lyrics again and its very relevant to Joe Brandt's vision.
This is the mind set " a lot " of people were in at the time. So you would see rock stars like Hendrix, Morrison and a slew of others going to absolute extremes to get their message across. If you put it all in this context it all makes sense. I mean the 60's!! The album cover, as you said was not designed by Hendrix and he disaproved, BUT, nothing in Jimi's life was accidental. He was still waking up himself. A little after Axis was released there was a famous photo taken of him, obviously imo, on LSD or some psychedelic, where hese wearing simillar jewlery to Krishna on the Album. It was then he had a full realisation of what was created as a whole album, music and cover art intergration. I have "experienced" the album once on mushrooms. And that music and cover art is so well integrated, to me its one the greatest spiritualised album of the 60's, along with the some Beatles songs and some Moody Blues albums of that time. Have a Great Life❤
Btw, the cover art transforms into a spiritualised experience on magic mushrooms. If you want to look at the Face of the Sun on the album, you have to take a psychedelic, or be very good at discerning images by squinting your eyes. Mushrooms will do. You only need 5 to 10 gold tops. I don't recommend continued use of psychedelics, since they are only meant to jolt you out of our perception that reality is fixed. They are meant to turn you inward to realise in a drug free state, what our True identity is - Jesus, Krishna, Mohammed etc. That's what they came here for, and continue coming even as I speak, are here!
Jimi's ear was unreal. It's what he hears that makes him great. Guitar after Jimi is different. He changed our ears. "Purple Rain" starts out with the tritone. Huh?? He was somewhere else.
It's what WE hear that makes him great.
This was the first album I purchased as a kid when it first came out. It was followed by Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", and then "Star" by Steppenwolf ("Magic Carpet Ride").
This album is full of ear candy. You'll hear the Jimi play licks nobodies ever heard before at that time.
"This came from our generation of peace, love, tolerance, and forgiveness.
We didn't shoot kids in schools. We didn't shoot people in grocery stores. We advocated PEACE, LOVE, ACCEPTANCE. We didn't own guns. We had the courage and guts to love"
It's also the same generation a lot of gun loving Trump cultists are from. I was born in 1960, in Houston Texas, a lot of the young people I grew up with hated hippies. In school there were a few of us hippy heads, but it was mostly shitkickers and jocks. I guess the generation of peace, love, tolerance, and forgiveness depended on where you came from.
One should hear the entire album at least 20 times to really get the feel of it...Noel and Mitch are at their best and it may be Jimi's magnum opus...
FIRE, DOLLY DAGGER, CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC.
Great songs, iconic musician! Next, check out “Remember.” It’s a pop infused rhythm & blues tune that was never played live or in the studio after it was recorded then released in 67. Also, when you get a chance, check out his Band of Gypsys album with Buddy Miles (live from 1970). IMO, it’s one of his best! ✌️
That's a great album!! You should listen to the whole thing!! It's awesome!
The sounds at the very end are either a Soprano Flute, or a Soprano Recorder. On the Original Album Credits, it says its a Soprano Flute. This is JIMI playing it. Some say its a Soprano Recorder, he bought from a street musician, in NYC. Also, this ending, is a copy from a John Coltrane song ending. Jazz Sax Player. Look him up.
The Dean of rock guitarists!
"Very out there song"...LOL... he changed everything that was going on in 1967 with this and Are You Experienced... no more Frankie Valie or Sinatra for this boy....lol
Bro I bet this was like a bomb going off back then in the scene. I can’t even imagine what people thought at first hahaha probably just awe struck
GOAT
They did have DMT in the 60s. Jimi was smoking a lot of it when he was in Hawaii doing that Rainbow Bridge thing. It was synthesized in labs back then rather than extracted from plants.
I always thought those high pitched sounds were his guitar. But it was actually Jimi playing recorders.
Came out when I was 16. So did a lot of other crazy music I.e. Mothers of Invention, Velvet Underground, etc. we didn’t know what we were hearing but we embraced it and it became the background of our young lives.
Suzy Cream cheese is that you ?
I don't even care if you shave your legs.
Electric Ladyland front to back. Check it out
Great choices. One of my all time favorite albums, definitely worth hitting up more songs from it. They are all short and all bangers. ❤️
Add: lol, forgot: a friend once declared that the amount of hallucinogens someone ate in the 90’s can be determined by how they rank this album on a scale of 1-10.
Two of my favorite Hendrix tunes. Mitch and Jimi had a special communication. With all due respect, please go back and listen to the lyrics you talked over. You have a great channel.
Context, kid, context. I was there. A crack opened in the Universe and a genius slipped through. A magical soul and a bright brief inferno. The end of Bold As Love is the soundtrack to God's Army charging from the heavens against the Army of Darkness. Listen to Castles Made of Sand. The words will bring tears.
This entire album is incredible.
"Up From the Skies" might be my favorite on it.
Lee, if you'd like to revisit Rickie Lee Jones, she does a great cover of Hendrix's "Up From the Skies"...
My favorite album of his. Have love listening to it over the decades.
Mitch was voted best up, and coming drummer in Europe in 1965.
I saw a short clip when Jimi was playing in London in 66, I think at the Bag of nails… and all the Brits “Gods of guitar and rock ” came to see him, The Beatles, Stones. Who , all in awe of him. I’m sure all of them that I saw there were inspired by him in someway or another as well as generations of future musicians. I think I have my mouth open just like all those Rockstars watching that clip
