"I know her sister will"... So dodgy, but hey, boys will be boys {#Dance}

Pure, basic, stripped-down blues rock from a master of the genre. Unbeatable. 9 from the bluesy Nottingham jury.

Oh yeah! This one following Ben Harper who did really a good cover of Red House. Not a ten like this one, but a solid eight. Listen to Ben Harper and Relentless7 @ Montreal International Jazz Festival 2009.

Yes, the mathematics of the situation say that there are more dead musicians than live ones. So, a varied collection should have more dead artists than live ones. If it doesn't, go back and find what artists inspired the ones you like. I heard Henry Rollins give a shout-out to Mississippi Fred McDowell. *mind blown*

"There's a Red House over yonder" ... and the goosebumps rise.

Great song, indeed. The best version I know of appears on his little know live album Hendrix in the West. . That version is incendiary

another terrific song from Jimi. Bluesy and rock and acid-rock and jazzy.

Jimi ...

Another artist whose albums were different depending on the country of release. This was on the English version of Are You Experienced but not on the American. We were robbed back then. Better albums overseas and better quality vinyl. The Beatles are another example of this back then, too.

What a relief to listen to this after Roy Harper. Gather round for Hendrix, Harper fans!

One of the few versions of tunes that are markedly better live than studio — and in the case of this one, that's really saying something.

Saw Jimi at the Bank Street theatre, I think 1969. He said he was having equipment troubles and was going to jam on a new song that had been working to work on the kinks. This was the song he played. It was an old theatre. Subway trains were coming out of his amp. Junk of the ceiling were falling down. That was my first rock and roll concert.

No just that time when you were open to new things — which was more than 50 years ago.
