Hendrix fans...

[monk3y]

I've recently been getting into more and more Hendrix. I just want some more suggestions. I have all the popular songs like Purple Haze, Fire, All Along the Watchtower (my favorite), and Hey Joe.

Crosstown
Voodoo Chile
And that song from the GM car ad.

edit: also "Wind Cries Mary"--one of my favorites

Did you know Hey Joe was a cover of a Dylan tune?

Manic Depression

Manic depression is touching my soul
I know what I want but I just dont know
How to, go about gettin it
Feeling sweet feeling,
Drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is catchin my soul

Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
Its all the same
When its, when its over, mama
Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess

Well, I think Ill go turn myself off,
And go on down
All the way down
Really aint no use in me hanging around
In your kinda scene

Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess

Little Wing

Angel and Bold as Love.

Yup I believe All Along the Watchtower is too... But I personally can't stand the way Dylan sings.

Foxy Lady
Little Wing
Are you Experienced
Red House

I would also recommend checking out some of his live stuff.

I have Live at Woodstock, Live at Berkeley, Live at the Isle of Wight, and Live at the Fillmore East... it's all amazing.

if six were nine

I also recommend the live stuff.

Little Wing has been mentioned twice. Here's to a third time.

I can't believe nobody has said anything about Voodoo Child!

Among others my favorites include:

Crosstown Traffic
Little Wing
All Along the Watchtower
Voodoo Child
Here My Train A'Comin
Snow Blues
Fire

Find the version of Angel from the rarities collection. Just Jimi and the Strat. Very simple recording, perfect version of the song.

Killing Floor, Mitch Mitchell's drum work is as important to that on as Jimi's guitar.
