Many heavy metal bands say they hope their next release will be their black album, i.e. their best and an all time classic like Metallica’s , unfortunately that rarely happens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get that I guess. I also remember when I was playing their early stuff, in the day, like Kill Em All and Ride the Lightning people would almost be scared of me because of that music. They were mega heavy in those days or at least most other music wasn't. Once Justice For All came out and then this album they were mainstream and played on popular FM stations . I'm always a bit amused at that. But indeed this album more than anything else was responsible for them becoming widely accepted. Probably not may favorite but some great songs on their IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full Range Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 I will follow up from @glenm64 with another Hendrix album Recorded between the making of Are You Experienced and Axis Bold as Love This album is very funky psychedelic rock, that is very free flowing This album with Jimi Hendrix is with Curtis Knight Quote from something I read - When Hendrix signed up with Chas Chandler in the UK, Hendrix seemed to forget that he was already signed to Ed Chaplin in the US. After coming to the US to play at Monterey and subsequently tour with the Monkees, he hooked up with and agreed a jam session with Curtis Knight with whom he had been working with prior to the Experience. The session was supervised by Ed Chaplin. Hendrix agreed to these recordings as he felt some obligation to Knight and Chaplin, but he didn't want his name used on them and this is pretty much ephemeral psychedelia. Artist - Jimi Hendrix with Curtis Knight Title - The Wild One 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
