If you’re a fan of Jimi Hendrix, which I’m sure you are, you’re gonna like this news.
To kick off Sony/Legacy’s huge reissue campaign, it’s going to release a new album that contains Hendrix’s previously unreleased strudio tracks which were recorded way back in 1969.
Expect this to be out in March 9.
The new album is Hendrix’s 11th studio album but the eighth posthumous. USA Today reported that Valleys includes “Hendrix’s Experience trio’s final studio recordings, his earliest sessions with bassist Billy Cox, the long-shelved Mr. Bad Luck, intended for 1968′s Axis: Bold as Love, a frenzied Fire, the long-coveted title track (out globally Feb. 2), a sprawling cover of Cream’s Sunshine of Your Love and such retooled originals as Lover Man, Red House and Crying Blue Rain.”
Longtime Hendrix engineer Eddie Kramer says of the album, “It’s wonderfully fresh material. You hear the pure essence of the band, an in-your-face vibrancy. There were only four tracks and no overdubs, with Jimi singing as if he’s in a concert. He’s at the top of his game.”
