Live At Winterland (recorded 1968, released 1987)
The Winterland shows (Oct. 10, 11 and 12) were well-recorded, but they weren't that good: after spending almost a year recording Electric Ladyland, much of which doesn't feature Noel Redding, the Experience was rusty. The rarely-performed "Manic Depression" and a nice version of "Tax Free" are the highlights. (DBW)
Most of the rest consists of Hendrix standards. The other major exceptions are "Killin' Floor," with Jack Casady on bass, and Cream's "Sunshine Of Your Love," dedicated to the band by Hendrix because they'd just broken up. Whatever the minuses, this is a reasonable demonstration of the original Experience in good form - and it's relatively easy to find on CD. (JA)
