I LOVE Jimi, and have for several decades. I find this version to be playful, whimsical, and fun. Kinda like it. But then, I am not in the altered state that I was so often during my formative years of listening to Jimi.

COVER,to record or perform a cover of (a song) as in COVER VERSION of the Hendrix song.
dude, you need to put on your helmet, board your little yellow bus, buckle up and get the fuck outta here.
thanks for the patient, articulate and well thought out response. |

It's like an anti-song... the exact opposite of music. |

I read this great little book a while back called Jimi Hendrix: Starchild. Here's a link to the book on Amazon which should give the credit to RP if you buy it... (click here)
Nice cover by RLJ at any rate... We are all star children my son. Except for some primeval hydrogen and helium, every atom in our bodies was manufactured in some star that went supernova and spread itself across the galaxy. If you take enough LSD, like Jimmie did, you become somewhat aware of that.. |

thanx for playing her
Yes, Magazine and Pirates are my favorites, would love to hear some of those cuts of sublime harmonic folky jazz pop. |

the little girl on the cover reminds me of a sweet little one in Louisiana I once knew (and at one time was interested in becoming her step dad)

Hendrix one is leisurely and well cool. Well worth a listen even for those who find Hendrix a tad wildy Bohemian. |

She's one of the rare artists whose covers I like.She did an album called "It's Like This"which was all covers(mostly standards) and it's great.
