Fabulous! Interesting that where Jimi plays a guitar-solo intro, Angelique Kidjo puts an African lyric... I can't help but wonder if this song goes back much further than Jimi and has its roots much deeper in African, rather than African-American culture...

As this is the first time I've even heard of Angelique Kidjo, I thought I'd miss Jimi's guitar soloing, but somehow I didn't... Kidjo's is a fantastic sound, unique and sufficient unto itself! Will look out for more of her work!

She is phenomenal. I saw her in New Haven at an outdoor concert and she was so happy, so intelligent, so nice -- and then she just KILLS every line. Her voice, her rhythm, her phrasing... it can't be better than this, just different.
