It doesn't even come close to his first three albums with the experience.

A lot of albums would fail next to Hendrix's three originals, however calling "Band of Gypsys" **** (how come when I type it - it's edited? f*cking censorship!) is really just a matter of opinion, man (which leads me to again say you know nothing about Hendrix). For most people, the twelve minute version of "Machine Gun" is worth the price of admission alone. The excellent closing rendition of Buddy Miles' "We Gotta Live Together" is another stunner. There's more soul on "Band of Gypsys" than most bands could muster...so pile of utter crap? Far from it.

All six? I thought there were eight (not including the "American Prayer" poetry/music album). I know "Other Voices" and "Full Circle" weren't led by Morrison...but they still had some interesting material on them.
