The Jimi Hendrix Experience – Miami Pop Festival (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
May 1968, just over a year into the Experience's run, and Hendrix was already operating at a level most guitarists never approach. The Miami Pop Festival caught him at a peak moment between the release of *Axis: Bold as Love* and the sessions that would become *Electric Ladyland*, a stretch when the live show had grown into something far beyond what any studio recording could fully contain. Eddie Kramer's board recordings preserve the full dynamic range of what that band actually sounded like from the stage.
Never previously available in any form, Miami Pop Festival, introduces the first recorded stage performances of "Hear My Train A Comin'" and "Tax Free" while showcasing definitive live takes on such classics as "Fire," "Hey Joe," "I Don't Live Today" and "Purple Haze." The package includes never before published photos taken at the festival and an essay by award-winning music journalist and Grammy Museum Executive Director Bob Santelli. This album includes the show as originally recorded on site by Hendrix's long term sound engineer, Eddie Kramer.
