Advantages: Amazing guitar, music, lyrics and style
Disadvantages: None
Wow, where do I start when writing about this? Words don't do it justice! This has to be one of the greatest, most influential debut albums ever, over 30 years on from it's original release. It's an album of sheer genius in my opinion, musically almost startling from Jimi's amazing emotive vocals and guitar work to Mitch Mitchell's powerful drums, even on the slower paced songs. This album is a classic on many levels - the musicianship, great songs, lyrically and the way it is delivered. Songs range in style from rock, the pure blues of 'Red House' to psychedelic. There are many Hendrix classics on this CD. 'Foxy Lady', 'Purple Haze' and 'Hey Joe' to name but a few. On the title track Jimi drawls that he's "been experienced" and asks to "prove it to you"! This CD without a doubt proves that The Jimi Hendrix Experience are legendary! Definetely add at least one of their albums to your collection!
