The follow up - more poetic and with a refined sound. Just great.
Recorded immediately after "Are You Experienced" (from May to November), released in December 1967 and again produced by Chas Chandler. The tone is more subdued here (Up From The Skies, Wait Until Tomorrow, Castles Made Of Sand, Little Wing, One Rainy Wish) with a determined lyrical approach which gave more depth to Jimi's music. A few tracks may have dated slightly ("Ain't No Tellin","She's So Fine") but again this album offers a rich spectrum of musical styles.
Like on "Are You Experienced", the title track closes the album and it's a musical tour de force, beginning as a soft ballad and building to a dazzling classical-inspired crescendo of guitar. That track features a superbly confident rock vocal from Jimi. The magnificent"If Six Was Nine" was later well known for its inclusion in Dennis Hopper's legendary 1969 film "Easy Rider". The beautiful "Little Wing" was to become one of the most covered Hendrix songs (Clapton, Sting, Stevie Ray Vaughan…) and was, with the hard rocking "Spanish Castle Magic", a stage favourite of Jimi's. Noel Redding sings the lead vocal on his own composition "She's So Fine" and Mitch plays the role of Jimi's interviewer on the opening spoof "EXP". Guests on the album were reportedly Graham Nash of the Hollies and members of The Move (who had toured with The Experience).
"Are You Experienced" looked impossible to follow, but Jimi succeeded with this beautiful album.
