Any feedback on the just released Hendrix albums

Bongofury,I think the greediness of the Experience Hendrix outfit has more to do with what you heard than any problems the artist was having,albeit,the man was deemed to be in bad shape. It's well documented that Hendrix spent an enormous time in the studio and recorded everything that went on,most of which I'm sure,was never to be considered for released.These people have been riding the man's coat tails since they got control of the music.It is obvious they will release anything to make a buck.This is just my take on the subject,I'm sure there are many others.

I think you are right. Just think--20 more albums in the q.
That's what Sony claims.

Imagine the marketing opportunity here.

Buy an album full of Hendrix junk and get an album of Michael Jackson junk for the same price.

Offer limited to the first 50 million buyers.

Throw in a copy of Yoko Ono's Greatest Hits and it's a deal!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure why there's such a negative reaction to this material? When musicologist find an heretofore unknown work by Mozart, it's interesting, regardless of whether it's high quality Mozart. A new sonnet from Shakespeare is by definition a major find even if it's bad Shakespeare. Now Jimi Hendrix is not at the same level as Mozart and The Bard, but even forty years after his death he's still considered the greatest rock guitarist EVER. So even his worst material is of interest. Basically, Jimi tuning his guitar is more interesting than 50% of anything any other rock guitarist ever played.
