    Last week, we played sides 1 and 2 of this classic album. This week, things get even better. Sides 3 and 4 certainly contain the most interesting material on “Electric Ladyland”, and much of Hendrix’s reputation as a studio genius is due to these tracks.

    There are many critics who consider this album to be among the best, if not the best, rock album of all time. The songs in this show adequately convey why.

    Featured tracks include;

    Burning of the Midnight Lamp

    Rainy Day, Dream Away

    1983…A Merman I Should Turn to Be

    Moon Turn the Tides…Gently Gently Away

    Still Raining, Still Dreaming

    House Burning Down

    All Along the Watchtower

    Voodoo Child (Slight Return)

    July 1968 – Billboard  Charted #1
