EXTD= debuts in rock history, and one of the definitive albums of the 
EXTD=psychedelic era. On Are You Experienced?, Hendrix synthesized var
EXTD=ious elements of the cutting edge of 1967 rock into music that so
EXTD=unded both futuristic and rooted in the best traditions of rock, 
EXTD=blues, pop, and soul. It was his mind-boggling guitar work, of co
EXTD=urse, that got most of the ink, building upon the experiments of 
EXTD=British innovators like Jeff Beck and Pete Townshend to chart new
EXTD= sonic territories in feedback, distortion, and sheer volume. It

EXTD=REVIEW\nHendrix takes the world by storm, May 30, 2004\nReviewer:
EXTD= Darth Kommissar (Las Vegas, NV (USA))\n     \nJimi Hendrix. When
EXTD= one thinks of guitar masterminds, this guy automatically comes t
EXTD=o mind. His style of playing was way ahead of its time, and his m
EXTD=usic never failed to please. Even to this day, many years after h
EXTD=is death, his music is still enjoyed by rock and roll fans as muc
EXTD=h as ever. It was in 1967, along with his band the Jimi Hendrix E
EXTD=xperience, that he released his first album - the appropriately-t
EXTD=itled Are You Experienced. Read on for my review.\n\nAs you may h
EXTD=ave seen from the tracklist, many of Hendrix's big hits first app
EXTD=eared on this album. Among these is his biggest hit of all, Purpl
EXTD=e Haze. This is one of the earliest truly successful hard rock so
EXTD=ngs, and it's been a huge influence to various rock stars - beaut
EXTD=ifully demonstrated by the number of times it has been covered ov
EXTD=er the years. Hey Joe, another big hit, is a much more bluesy num
EXTD=ber, but it's no less excellent than Purple Haze. Fire and Foxey 
EXTD=Lady also became huge hits, and why not? They're regular masterpi
EXTD=eces. The last of the fairly popular songs is The Wind Cries Mary
EXTD=, which is a slower track. It's the least-known of the hits, but 
EXTD=still excellent. And then we have the songs that were never hits 
EXTD=at all, but still won't fail to please listeners. Among these we 
EXTD=have the rocker Manic Depression, the lengthy Third Stone From Th
EXTD=e Sun, and, of course, the title track. In the end, this album st
EXTD=ands as a hard rock masterpiece.\n\nTHIS TEXT REFERS EXCLUSIVELY 
EXTD=TO THE AMERICAN REMASTER/RERELEASE. This compact disc reissue of 
EXTD=the album does more than just remaster it - it adds six bonus tra
EXTD=cks. Tracks 1-11 were the original album, and tracks 12-17 are bo
EXTD=nuses. Many of these tracks were released as B-Sides to Hendrix's
EXTD= singles. For being B-Sides, these are remarkably good. What's as
EXTD=tonishing is that they don't disrupt the "flow" of the regular al
EXTD=bum at all. The original album was sequenced almost perfectly, an
EXTD=d it fades into these bonus tracks very well - if you're a casual
EXTD= Hendrix listener, you might not even know that these weren't on 
EXTD=the original LP! I really wish the record company would have made
EXTD= it more clear which songs are B-Sides and which ones were origin
EXTD=al album tracks, but I'm not complaining. \n\nJimi Hendrix is a g
EXTD=uitar god, and his first album stands as solid proof of that. Whi
EXTD=le not necessarily his best (it's hard to play favorites with thi
EXTD=s guy), it is still excellent. If you're a fan of classic and/or 
EXTD=hard rock, do not hesitate to purchase this album!\n\nROLLING STO
EXTD=NE REVIEW\nJimi Hendrix was arguably the greatest rock instrument
EXTD=alist of the Sixties. His blunt attack contrasted sharply with th
EXTD=e meticulous virtuosity of an Eric Clapton; Hendrix preferred and
EXTD= angry metal whine, molten steel to Clapton's polished chrome. Hi
EXTD=s rough edges conveyed far more than his awesome dexterity. In a 
EXTD=genre where computerized pyrotechnics seem the rule, Hendrix play
EXTD=ed with a rawness transcending idiomatic formalities. (RS 164 - J
