This may be blasphemy, but I’ve never been a serious Jimi Hendrix fan. I like him, like some of his songs, but I didn’t make the Purple Box connection. Bad, huh?!
Hi Matt
Here is a link regarding the CSN Box – I think this is the one…
Matt, listen again to Are You Experienced and Axis – great albums and great songs!

Re: Your Jimi interest, yes, that IS blasphemy :)!
I know. There are those him I think better.
Better? Think that the first album was released in the UK in 1966 – his playing and ideas changed everything. I can see not liking his songs or style though; it wasn’t for everyone and never will be. But Clapton and Beck and Page, the leading guitarists of that time, were blown away by Jimi – and that voice!
I knew I should have stayed silent.
ACTUALLY THE FRESH CREAM WAS RELEASED ON DEC. 9 1966, AND THE ARE YOU EXPERIENCED ON MAY 12 1967 …..AND THE YARDBIRDS/ WITH, CLAPTON IN 1964 …THE YARDBIRDS /WITH, BECK IN 1965 !!!
Don’t like Hendrix?!!! Why I’ve never….! LOL
Yep you should have stayed silent.
That’s it, we aren’t going to let you join in any reindeer games.
No soup for you!
I like him, just feel there are better. Even he at one time said that Rory Gallagher was better than he.
JIMMY PAGE, RITCHIE BLACKMORE ,ERIC CLAPTON ,JEFF BECK , ALVIN LEE , ….ARE ALL BETTER THEN HENDRIX …AND YES I OWN OVER, 30 CD’S, BOX SETS DVD/ BLU-RAY’S OF HENDRIX !!!
Hey Joe, I stand corrected. Some of the tracks for Are You Experienced? were recorded in 1966 – I always thought the UK version was released late in ’66 but I was wrong. Thanks. And Jimi Hendrix was never an egotist – he talked about other bands being better, like Cream and the like. There were and are better guitar technicians than Hendrix (Robert Fripp is one for example) but none can claim the revolution that he started on guitar. I think Jeff Beck was close in that regard. If we listened to guitarists for their technical prowess only, I know I would be bored silly. Having said that, try Guthrie Govan and the Aristocrats first album – jaw dropping stuff and musical to boot.
The upcoming Band release, “Live at the Academy of Music 1971” sounds like a re-release of their Rock of Ages album, which was already remastered amp; expanded several years ago.
