The Jimi Hendrix Experience -Are You Experienced? (1967)

What I would'nt do to have been around in '67 when this beauty hit the shelves. The fucker is now over 40 years old and still blows the crap out of many Rock albums even now. Backed by the brilliant Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding, Jimi tore through the U.K with a superlative blend of heavy riffs, Psychedelia and Blues. What is more remarkable is that it all just sounds so effortless and timeless.

It's a cliche but if you only have just a passing interest in heavy rock then this album should be in your collection. If you think that Jimi is just a bunch of stale riffs then check this live version of 'I Don't Live Today' and check that awesome jam round the four minute mark. It makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.
