The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Midnight

A fictional Hendrix album now. All material presented here was performed by The Jimi Hendrix Experience and recorded after the completion of 'Electric Ladyland' but before sessions for the final (but never completed) album.

Hendrix continued recording after the session for 'Electric Ladyland', but with no real focus in mind.
Shortly after, he would dissolve the Experience and start the funk trio Band Of Gypsys. The material from this interim period wasn't carried over for inclusion on the 'First Rays of the new Rising Sun' / 'Straight Ahead' project.

A lot of the stuff here is strong; loud, fuzzed out jams, with three instrumental tracks included. The 'Band Of Gypsys' album was handed over to the record label as a contractual obligation, this album of completed Experience tracks could of done that. 

Not that I'm complaining about 'Band Of Gypsys', it's wonderful.

Grouper - He Knows He Knows He Knows

Haven't posted any Grouper in a long time. An earlier release here. Guitar pedal drone experiments.

The original release was a mini CDr sold at shows on a Canadian tour. The same year also saw an even more limited version on Something on the Road records for Israel.

Finally, Grouper self released a 7" version in 2009.
