Im 33, from Europe... It wasnt until last year when I was crusing in the states in a Camaro on my way to Vegas, I heard this on the radio. Way WAY to late to find this gold!
This was part of "the Essential Jimi Hendrix" and had a blank "B" side. I originally thought that "7 EP 331/3" was a tune the way it was listed on the jacket. BTW...this is REALLY great!
I bought this when it came out. I was in Houston. Two vinyl discs; only music on three sides. WTF??? Gloria was a bonus disc. I doubt he would have allowed this to be put out. He's on record as saying he only liked the third album, probably because that was the first release he had a modicum of control over as an artist.
There are a bunch of great versions of this 3 chord wonder but none rock it like Jimi did. Simply smokin' the solo sounds like he's ripping huge holes in the space - time continuum with his guitar. Complete sensory overload!
Yow! I LOVE this!
