One of the most celebrated guitarists in the history of Rock n Roll is – without a doubt – Jimi Hendrix. No legend is greater than the stories surrounding the man and the band he fronted. The Jimi Hendrix Experience released three albums over the period of a year and a half. The last release was Electric Ladyland in 1968. Unfortunately, Jimi Hendrix died in 1970. Since then, an avalanche of quality recordings have resurfaced in the form of live performances, and remastered classic albums.
On November 9, a quite large remastered reissue of Electric Ladyland will make its way into the marketplace with a desired collection of unreleased demos, alternate takes, unreleased live performances, a new 5.1 Surround mix (by Eddie Kramer, no less!), and a high resolution Stereo mix (96kHz/24-bit). To help celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the landmark album, this commemorative Box will include a richly designed book with 48 pages of photos, memorabilia, credits, notes, and more.
This Electric Ladyland Deluxe set will spread out over 3CDs and a Blu-ray disc with a documentary featuring the making of the album. and will house the 5.1 Surround and Hi-Res Stereo parts of the album. a 6LP/BD set is also scheduled.
