Jimi Hendrix – Blues (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Hendrix absorbed the blues not as a genre to play but as a language to speak, and these recordings make that lineage undeniable. Before the pyrotechnics of "Purple Haze" and Woodstock, there was the South Side of Chicago, Robert Johnson, and a kid from Seattle who listened harder than almost anyone. This collection puts that foundation on wax.
This reissued collection of 11 stinging blues classics brings Hendrix's work as a bluesman to the musical forefront. Features a brilliant 12-string acoustic rendition of "Hear My Train a Comin'", plus Hendrix's own tributes to some of his blues forefathers, including Muddy Waters' "Mannish Boy" and Booker T. Jones "Born Under a Bad Sign."
