    It may seem hard to believe, especially when you consider that Jimi Hendrix had barely four years as a professional performer, that he started out with a genuine fear of singing  and an inability to write songs.

    This show covers the short timeframe where he learned to do both. The speed at which he learned to do both with ease pretty much expresses exactly how his genius was simply waiting to be discovered (or invented?).

    Featured tracks include:

    Sweet Thang – Billy Lamont w/ Jimi Hendrix

    Hey Joe (live)

    Killing Floor (live)

    Hey Joe (pre-master take)

    Foxey Lady (pre-master)
