JIMI HENDRIX
Electric Birthday Jimi [no label, 1CD]
Outtakes 1968-70 plus Buddy Miles Jam, New York City, NY 14.11.69.

Another well-pressed 1987 vinyl bootleg from the same label that did “First Rays of The Rising Sun”, and this collection is mostly instrumental. Please note that I give Track 4 its correct title “Excerpt from Nine To The Universe”. The bootlegger has mistitled it “Strato Strut”. Interestingly, the folks at “Experience Hendrix” liked that title, and later gave the name “Strato Strut” to a totally unrelated piece of music that they released in 2000. - Philip Cohen

On entertainment value, this may not rate highly but guitarists might get more from this all-electric experience.

Top marks again for sound quality. Thanks Phil.

^ Tk 3 is the full, uncut version, much longer than what was released on the Jimi Hendrix Experience 4CD boxset.

*On the original bootleg LP cover, Track 4 is incorrectly titled “Strato Strut”. In 2000, the Hendrix Estate gave the title “Strato Strut” to an entirely different piece of music.
