* Jimi Hendrix Experience

Hendrix made another album with a band called Band of Gypsys a short while before he died. It was a complete piece of shit though, so you're not missing much.

Personally, I've got quite a few discographies, but hardly any more than 10 albums or so. The ones that are exemplary:

Miles Davis - 42 LPs, 3 or 4 compilations
David Bowie - 25 LPs (everything but Tin Machines I, II and The Labyrinth...and I don't want those )

I have:

All Springsteen albums save the expanded version of The Seeger Sessions and the Chimes Of Freedom EP

All Bob Dylan studio albums

Four Sex Pistols albums (NMTB, Spunk, Swindle, Burton-On-Trent)

All six Doors studio albums, plus Essential Rarities

Four Stone Roses albums (debut, Second Coming, Turns Into Stone, Complete SR)

Message In A Box (all Police related material)


I think that's it.

Now there's a man who knows absolutely nothing about Jimi Hendrix. "Band of Gypsys" was an incredible piece definitely worthy of being in any collection. As for myself, I have a lot of complete discographies but my personal favorite (should be obvious after the above statement) is Jimi Hendrix. Thirty-one vinyl recordings from his official catalog plus seven bootlegs.

NMTB is the only official Sex Pistols album...everything else is bootlegs/compilations. Turns Into Stone is a compilation as well.

Compared to Axis: Bold As Love, Are You Experienced? and Electric Ladyland, yes, Band of Gypsys is a pile of utter crap. No defining tracks and everything sounds like a reiteration of his last works (which featured a much more experienced rhythm section, anyways). It doesn't even come close to his first three albums with the experience.

Urban does. Maybe not the 80+ live albums, but he's the only person that could tolerate MES for that long.

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.
