Well... wow.. this album is truly overwhelming.. Typically great songs from the man Hendrix, some songs are nice to sing along to, some just to listen to... over all, its pretty damned groovy.
I'll start with the first track "EXP" which is just a bunch of random noises after a very short dialogue about aliens. The noises are very similar to the noise of someone killing an electric guitar.. but it still sounds sort of musical.. "Spanish Castle Magic" is a great song, with excellent lyrics, and of course a great musical backing. "Wait Until Tomorrow" is another good song, very bluesy, and still pretty damned cool.
This album contains the classic "Little Wing" and is it as great now as when it was created. An outstanding blues song, and great lyrics.
Anyone who calls themself a music lover MUST have this amongst their collection, if you don't GO AND GET IT NOW!
