Experience Hendrix: The Best of Jimi Hendrix by Jimi Hendrix
Experience Hendrix: The Best of Jimi Hendrix is a greatest hits career-spanning compilation of Jimi Hendrix's best known music from 1966 to 1970 released on September 16, 1997, in the United Kingdom and on November 3, 1998, in the United States.
This 20-song distillation of Hendrix’s short but expansive career is a solid introductory look at the man who redefined the electric guitar for rock n’ roll: psychedelic rockers (“Purple Haze,” “Manic Depression”), out-of-this world blues (“Red House,” “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)”), sensitive ballads (“The Wind Cries Mary,” “Castles Made of Sand”), plus “The Star Spangled Banner” from the 1969 Woodstock Festival.
