Jimi Hendrix - Moon, Turn The Tides Gently Gently Away

[cloudcitycircle]

my favourite hendrix song...tranquilizes the mind

[jonathanmoreno1000]

you have alot of talent .you did the hendrix experience real good.

[paukeke]

Bien TRU !

[timeforavirus]

side b 331/3 rpm oh those days

[noir325]

Absolutely amazing.

[TheSchlager1]

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[sss10627]

isn't this "1983... (A Merman I should Turn to be)"? not "Moon, Turn Tides Gently Gently Away"...

[DigimaxPhoto]

Jimi playing bass on this too. Just one incredible musician!!! 

[montemike]

this video is just incredible! WOW (sage it) 

[Jazzxoxo3]

This song title caught my attention. Reminds me of my trip last night. The moon was full, everything looked so different but colorful in the dark. I just simply love this.<3

[jimmatera]

That Video is Wild--i know he would of liked it--need not speak of his tunes--we know.

[probrojeffro]

Pass it here, man. Over here. Yeah. Thanks man. Phhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh . .. . Excellent. Yeah. You alright? Cool. I'm racing. No, in my head. Yeah. I can feel the ebb and flow. You? Yeah, I know you feel it. More? Alright. Pass it on brotha. Pass it on . . . . . Yeah. 

[1947classic]

I'm old enough to say i had a front row Jimi concert seat as he performed this classic song in the late 60's...fans jaws dropped as the rock wizzard 's electric guitar and voice sent you on a musical journey...and later on, realized it was an experience like a shooting star passing through a 'time warp' by a genuis!

[TheNella1972]

waw- perfection

[jimmatera]

Nice video--Hail you Jimi--I know you can hear me--for once.

[ranchuboy7]

Hahaha I blasted this through speakers at year 7 camp evryone hated it apart for me and a few friends they all listen to shit techno 60s and 70s rock for life

[talkinglens1]

Exquisite craftsmanship and playing. Never ever heard this. Thanks!!!

[jacknickels1]

this sounds like the music you would hear right after you die traveling to your next life.

[miiiishaohmisha]

The man was self taught, changed the world with his mind and worked like a maniac putting down sounds and lyrics he heard inside his head... never satisfied with what he got done. Talk about fate! Probably knew the world wasn't ready to get what he would do next... I look forward to meeting him in the next world...

He sang "I'll meet you in the next world and don't be late"... I don't think you can ever be to late to this experience.

[jimihendrix58]

Close your eyes and fly away !

[californiarasta]

im a kid from the present, listening to the sounds of the past, striving for the music for the future

[daveburgess65]

totally tripping balls dude

[lizardkingvoodookid]

this by far my favorite video on youtube!!!!!! my favorite jimi song with amazing visuals, total euphoria much love to the person who posted it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TRKTKO]

Jimi knew the true feeling you get from music

[PositiveEdge]

CSC, 1983, freshman year, hanging in my dorn room with my awesome roomy Billy Bud, banked to bejuzzus belt, listening to this...utterly entranced...ah yes.

[sawboss17]

No hatin bra!

[Bishopgoldy]

I hate how this was removed from the 1983 merman i shall turn to be when it comes back in its the best feeling ever

[Bishopgoldy]

2 watched the video instead of listening to the music!!!!

[OBEYWEEGEE]

Welcome to LSD, enjoy your trip.

[KBMCINTERNETRADIO]

Who is Prince??

[ILoveMariahCarey777]

@KBMCINTERNETRADIO A really famous singer!! I think he was from the 80's... You should look him up on youtube!!

[GreedyNoobLike]

Apparently this piece sounds awesome, when you're doing some Sativa(according to my brother). Personally music is enough for me- alcohol ,drugs, relationships-nothing gets me more "higher", than these awesome tunes from waayyyy back, if i'd die tomorrow, i wouldn't miss anything else, but the music i've experienced.

Now that's something that's uncurable, various addictions can be managed, but melomania will never be cured.

[DrGit]

One of my favorite Hendrix songs, and he's my favorite

[grahamw56]

I bought it new on Electric Ladyland. One of the best rock tracks of all time IMO, and still makes my hair stand on end near the finish. I'm an atheist, but God bless you anyway Jimi. Truly a genius .

[808catboy]

pesky buffer underruns on this vid.

Fine art Jimi and visual person

[garnetgervais5]

Stars and Stones!!! You totally rocked the light show with the images of Jimi.!!!

[madambuttahfly]

@USgovernmentLies yes, most defff .

[pencrack]

Hendrix was sent to us.

[snakeweirdo]

I am crying for the first time since being 12 right now. I heard this song many times, yet it has still not had such a profound influence on me as it has now. Hendrix really was the best.

[cyborghana]

This sounds like so many things and words really cannot describe this tune in no way... it sounds like the 60s the good and the bad and I also think about Buddhist temples, incense, weed, ahhhhhhhhhh and all of this. It seems to be touched by God!

[snakeweirdo]

@cyborghana It IS touched by Hendrix.

[7stash]

They don't make music or acid like that anymore.truth be told.Sometimes I think he was jamming with his own legend.That's a bad man.Had he lived I'm sure he and SRV would've linked up.What might have been.

[TheSmilingToast]

this is the first time i've ever heard this....Holy shit...

[sydfan526]

my favorite part is 03:57 to 04:38 - the most psychedelic bass solo of all time.

[JLHewey]

@LedZep26996 Didn't see the wiki article. Thanks for pointing that out. I just never thought it sounded like Noel's playing.

[kokobirra]

Why the song :"Moon, Turn The Tides...Gently, Gently Away" with the 9:45 minutes only stay complete in the Polydor Label Album (naked version cover)!!!!???

[blockbrothers]

@kokobirra I have it ;)

[tacosandpussy]

jimi headphones and pcylocibin enough said

[2patero]

Remember this Afro American Cherokee Indian died at 27!

Tell me who else aside from Bruce Lee and Jesus Christ has achieved so much in a short space of time!

Peace

[niandraunderground]

@2patero ANton Newcombe, duh...

[SCORNDOGGMELACH]

Absolutely mind blowing. So damned expressive.

[ayeael]

this is the second part to 1983,full title..1983 a merman i should turn to be,moon moon turn the tides...gently gently away.

[animalman1122]

this is 1983 right?

[89Pigsofdarkness]

@animalman1122 i think it has a passage that is same but the lyrics re different and its altered a bit... but 1983 is different

[herne831]

@animalman1122 Yes, the YouTube clip is the 2nd half of 1983. The "Moon, Turn The Tides Gently Gently Away" is about 1 minute in length and followed 1983 on the Electric Ladyland album.

[ayeael]

amazing visuals to an amazing piece of music, use to love drifting off to this one as well.you were so good jimi,miss you still.

[hapzEt]

I'm so F@cking H_g_!



[RoseMathilde]

jimi, you are in my h e a r t ! ! (and constantly in my head too ;)

[jsorrow88]

Make love listening to this song is incredible!!!



[SCORNDOGGMELACH]

oH the possibilities. He left to soon. I cant count the times I drifted away to this one. Such a visionary. Jimi's ideas were huge during this stage and just barely realized. Combined with his new attention to actually studying music I cant imagine what he could have accomplished diving into the 70's decade. This may sound strange but I relate to this art more as a painter than that of a music lover. Its been 28 yrs since I first plopped this one on to the platter and it still kicks my ass.

[jgcaesar4]

@SCORNDOGGMELACH I understand. If you consider the variety of his output in the short time he had access to a studio, the immensity of his imagination was amazing. As a teenager in the mid seventies I only thought of him as a guitarist. Later he was a musician to me. Now I see him as an artist.

[santanaincubus]

Watchu mean the visuals aint too bad??? The visuals are GREAT. Just matches the music.

[ruufeeooh]

In my opinion, Lennon and Hendrix were the only true legends to rise above the rest that came out of history, in particular the 60's, which were filled with over 50 or so amazing artists. The only song writers to capture surrealism using nothing but sounds, no other people in the world can create a world, and a feeling quite like they can using instruments.

[89Pigsofdarkness]

@ruufeeooh i would include pink floyd too but ok agreed:D

[ruufeeooh]

@89Pigsofdarkness yeah definitely.

[roballen49]

BRILLIANT!!! A symphony way ahead of it's time!!

[Tonioseven]

There are apparently 2 people with no senses for awesome talent.

[TheOneartist]

This is part of "1983... (A Merman I Should Turn to Be)". "Moon, Turn the Tides...Gently Gently Away" comes on at the very end.

[bazmitch]

The bass was played by Jimi.....Noel was out of favour at this point.

[cementbug]

Wow! I cruise through YouTube to find some cool tunes and I stumble upon a flame war regarding who is the better guitarist, i.e.: i play better than you, you're a noob, my dad can beat up you dad...what a total load of crap. If you don"t like a song or artist, fine, that's your prerogative; don't watch or listen. To slam the artist based on your opinion regarding their virtuosity or impact is fairly closed minded. And then, to go forward with juvenile name calling is just sad.

[stevehd111]

5:22 :)

[lovintonal]

electric ladyland ahh yes

[Fabyooleas]

'no description available'

you got that right.

[yogijimi101]

@Fabyooleas Lol.

[jongsin]

@Fabyooleas haha was thinking the same thing :)

[CallMeMister99]

To vajrayudh, again: You STILL choose to throw personal abuse at me, despite being told that this is not how a civilised man behaves. I shall block and report you, as I said I would.

People such as YOU are the only problem with Youtube.

[coolsk83rjay]

soooo chill...

[CallMeMister99]

At vajrayudh: Personal abuse, because I don't like a piece of music? Who died and put you in charge? I live in a Democracy, where I have CHOICE to like or dislike something. You know nothing of me, or my playing, or my life, but you personally insult me, in a childish manner. Yes, SRV played Little Wing so well, he won a Grammy for it. I believe he always played much better than Hendrix. Your point is? Actually, I don't care. Keep it to yourself. I have left a comment on your page.

[YHWHtheophilus]

While there is no doubt that others posses and display more technical skill than Jimi- SRV, Satriani, at times Clapton and others who display a more solid or straightforward approach to the blues, Jimi was a pioneer, yes in his time, but also for all time in that he crossed and mixed genres of music and like all good musicians, heard the spaces between the notes in a way that did not confine him to standard patterns. His genius was straining to hear that which had on been heard.

[CallMeMister99]

To bennitocore: Firstly, I have more than ten years on you, which makes me OLDER than you are, so "young" isn't really the right word for you to use to describe me. I started playing whilst you were being born. I don't seek to play like Jimi, preferring the tone & phrasing of SRV, Clapton, Carlos, Knopfler, B.B King and some others - Hendrix WAS a pioneer, but is a Model-T Ford STILL a viable car today? Time brings progress. I'll stay clean and sober, thanks. You can stick your 'shrooms.

[CallMeMister99]

UGHH! Nooooo000, this is awful... Like the music you would hear if you got trapped in a lift in a crack-house. Sorry, but I'm t00-square to do the drugs needed to like this. Sounds like an accident in a studio - is it t00-much to ask, to have everyone on the same page? I'm gonna go listen to some SRV to flush this out.

[bennitocore]

@CallMeMister99 lifes story can't be explored on one page young padowan. EAT THE SHROOMS

[aybxcw]

Good visual accompaniment. a ticking sound in the audio though.  What was that?

[ziderazzi]

A masterpiece

[kingfaffer]

fantastic as always...

[ketchken]

1 song of psychedelic jimi a day!

keeps the normal and socially accepted lifestyle away!!!

[IxENESxI]

.Like any great album it's made as one whole composition .It would be like saying "this part of this painting represents this but this other side is different".Like 'Dark Side Of the Moon' it is just ONE piece.That is why it's all on the same album.Sorry if it seems like I am trying to step on anyone's toes.This is my opinion so I can't say that I am right, just like you cannot say that I am wrong...Enes

[rosseis]

@IxENESxI  jimi's playing bass

[IxENESxI]

@rosseis Yes you are right about that.It's a very unique tone for the bass and it had many sound effects like delay for example.He does the solo as well.I like Buddy Miles who played drums in"the Band of Gypsies" but I like Mitch Mitchel playing with Hendrix a bit more.Bottom line, Amazing work and one of the tracks that made "Electric Ladyland" my favorite album of Jimi Hendrix Experience.Great visuals btw...Enes

[cadidadi57]

@IxENESxI the bass sounds so fukin good cause its a Hagstom 8 stinger just like a 12 string guitar

[IxENESxI]

@cadidadi57 Thanks for the info my friend.I had no idea that they had such a Bass as that back when this was recorded.Sounds great.I think he should of found more compositions and included the same Bass tone into them...Enes

[cadidadi57]

@IxENESxI 

[shango02005]

That was incredible! Closest I've come to a flashback!!

[Ihugmoons]

this is 1983...i merman i should turn to be..not the title u have above. that title is from the beginning of electric ladyland...

still a great tune tho <333

[count7411]

@Ihugmoons I consider 'em both one song. They pefectly tie in to each other. 

[RockNimbie]

@Ihugmoons what do you want to say? this IS "moon turn the tides...", 2d part of "1983...". opening track of electric ladyland is "and the gods made love".

[LegitAsBalls95]

@Ihugmoons no its not,look to your right and 1983...(mermen i should turn to be) is right there.



[lghalihaf]

It makes me wann go shit !

[PrototypeC4]

Too good, its just too perfect.

[bmwiskater1234]

damn right no one dislikes this

[gsuitter]

As awesome today as when I first put it on my turn table November 1968.

[rickitan89]

@gsuitter I can truely say that i am highly jealous, me being a kid from the 90's.

[graft5838]

@rickitan89 I have exactly the same heartache being a 90's kid also, I dream everyday I could see him live.

[blackstrat6897]

@graft5838 theres many of us lol

[nicolina429]

@rickitan89 same here. Sure- Nirvana, Hole, Smashing Pumpkins. All great 90's products, right? But Hendrix <3 Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath... I would give anything to go back in time!

[PixiePr0ducti0ns]

@rickitan89 hello, im a kid from the now (thirteen) and IM jealous that you got to experience the nineties :( theres hardly anyone my age that like rock... if so it's only nickel back and rarely anything else (ooh unless greenday or linkin park, which is too commerical)

[madambuttahfly]

@rickitan89 You and me both!

[cloudcitycircle]

@rickitan89 i second that

[gavinonymous]

I can hear Atlantis full of cheer.

[boenr]

tripped my nuts of to this several times, actually the whole album, with a little janes addiction twrown in, it was epic and changed me forever

[clint2098]

This is amazing. When I first heard it, it inspired me to go places I had never ventured prior. Electric Lady Land, BEST album ever conceived in my opinion. I wish more people knew of it. Thank you for the video. One step closer to showing the world Jimi's true brilliance.

[cybervorex]

Outstanding !

[julesplym]

Brilliant video - shame about the sound quality: crackling!

[achemaro]

so down and down and down we go

amo essa musica

[AngelaCamargoIDGD]

DIVINA ESTA MÚSICA, I LOVE IT!

[sabertoothtiger91]

99% of musicians today shouldn't be called an " artist" hendrix is an artist in the fullest sense.

[MsUkdance]

@sabertoothtiger91

People today are too caught up in the trappings, he was free.

[djakubo]

the first post-rock song ever

[OnePasoFino]

dog..found this on a fluke.... moon... 8 minutes of bliss!

[OnePasoFino]

dog...8 minutes of what today's generation don't get....love it. found this on a fluke. glad.

[bellers]

@OnePasoFino i get it??....

[bradlaypamp]

and down,and down,and down,and down,and downnn,and down we go....love that part

[MrTubejockey]

nice job mindonga01....jimi would be proud!

[abuhead]

3:39 - 3:53 killer lick, blows me away every time

[javichula]

Listen at 5.00 to 5.03 Lenny kravitz copied just that riff and made his "are you gonna go my way"

[gcdc14]

Imagine as they have submerged into the sea.

After the land world has been left behind.

[12321marlolulo12321]

i see a subliminal mesage (?)

[bradlaypamp]

well...the song and the video put together gave me a natural high...awesome!!

[Egondv]

is that weird clicking/fuzzing/crackling part of the song?.

[metalliczombie]

@Egondv No. 

[harhom]

Looking at this stuff, listening to Jimi > "I can hear Atlantis full of cheer...", wow, awesome.

[Paulsworks]

This really spotlights just how talented The Experience really was. The drumming is impeccable, the bass is smokin', and Jimi is just Jimi. And these visuals aren't too bad either. Nice work Mindonga01.

[andyvincentwhostube]

Hi Paulsworks No question Mitch is kicking ass...but Jimi himself may have done the bass work on this cut. Noel had reportedly stopped showing up at the E L sessions due to Jimis' already recorded work.( Direction if you will) E L is the first album in rock history to be produced and directed I beleive.

[Paulsworks]

@andyvincentwhostube You might/probably are right. Cause it really doesn't sound like Noel's style. Jimi played bass on" Little Miss Strange" and "She's so fine" too. This song has always been one of my favorite tunes.

[tullist]

@Paulsworks Quite sure that is the still with us Jack Casady on bass on this track

[spyguys]

@tullist I read a book about the recording of this album and it said Jimi played the bass on this track. He also played it on All Along the Watchtower. Noel was pissed and having problems with how the session was going and he walked out. So Hendrix played bass on some of his own tracks, Cassidy played on Voodoo Chile (Slow bluesy one with Steve Winwood on organ).

[tullist]

@Paulsworks Quite sure that is Jack Casady, still with us, on bass

[codehendrix]

@Paulsworks bass and guitar are all Jimi...... Noel dropped out by this time.....

[joehollowwell]

@Paulsworks AAhh mitch mitchell on drums great Bass by Noel Redding. Best music god ever took an interest in!!!

[bazmitch]

@joehollowwell Jimi on bass.

[jgcaesar4]

@Paulsworks I'm pretty sure that Jimi played the bass on this one.

[JLHewey]

@Paulsworks Basing this comment on nothing other than my opinion, I think that was Jimi on bass.

[LedZep26996]

@JLHewey Read that off Wikipedia did you..

[wicked3lovely]

most amazing song i think i've ever heard.

[kakophon]

♥ tripy and beautiful..-good old memories-..

i really love it ...

thank you

[lizardkingvoodookid]

awsome visuals on one of jimi's best peices of art,

thank u!!!!!!!!
