Hendrix 50th Anniversary Electric Ladyland Box Release

1967 this album came out - think of it!  Only 22 years after the end of WW2.  Yes, it is a masterpiece but this album for me was 50 years ahead of its time.  

I'm just hoping that it will be reasonably priced.  So much of this stuff is geared towards affluent boomers. Ugh...

The Hendrix Family reissues on CD and cassette are all terrific. That’s been what, twenty years ago?

bdp24, "The Velvet Underground" was released in the spring of 1969.

omhwy61, The Velvet Underground are very interesting in terms of their West Coast vs. East Coast impact and influence. All the New York, Detroit, and other Midwest and East Coast bands that followed cite them as a major influence and inspiration. On the West Coast, however, they were considered a bad joke. The Midwest/New York bands, whose Rock music was of a more "hard" strain than that of the West Coast bands, viewed the San Francisco and Los Angeles bands as hippies, and that wasn't a compliment. I can't picture The VU playing at Woodstock ;-) .

That's interesting @bdp24, I've never heard that. Of course you have a few years on me. However, I just thought the teenagers of this era and early twenty's culture were viewed a hippies in general.
