Drawn from various sessions recorded between March 1969 and March 1970 some of the music featured on this disc originally appeared on the album Nine To The Universe. At the time of the albums release (1980) many suggested that Jimi was heading in a jazz direction although the recordings show no real sign of this despite featuring contributions from known jazzers such as Larry Young and Dave Holland both of whom had worked with British jazz guitarist John McLaughlin and worked along with McLaughlin on the landmark Miles Davis album Bitches Brew.

The recordings here are the unedited recordings that Alan Douglas utilised to make his final selection on the original Nine To The Universe album. At the time the release was heralded as the final unreleased recordings to be made available for Alan Douglas to shape into a releasable album. Time and subsequent releases however have obviously proved that there were and indeed are many recordings still lying in the vaults that are awaiting release. In essence the music contained on this disc could be described as a series of jams. With Jimi inviting other musicians into the studio with him to try out new musical ideas. Alan Douglas merely fashioned an album out of the material here although in his defence he did a fair job in trying to deliver a commercial album the record label could market.

These performances however are the real raw material and as such are now heard in the correct context rather than the edited pieces that appeared on the 1980 album. Here the pieces are longer and looser and they give a much better idea of how Jimi worked in a studio and drew on many influences. Of the material here only Lover Man ever made it to a fully fashioned live performance where it made the set regularly from late summer 1969 through to just before Jimis death in September 1970. Jimi preformed this song more famously during the Woodstock Festival and also at the Isle Of Wight Festival just weeks before his death and is featured on the live albums drawn from recordings of those events and also on the Live At Berkley album recorded in May 1970.

The quality of these studio tracks is stunning and it is far more interesting to hear the full versions of the songs that Alan Douglas used for his edited version of Nine To The Universe in 1980 and as such places that album in far better perspective. These recordings have been described as jams although Jimis creative spark is present throughout the sessions. Despite the claims that Jimi was to move in a more jazz oriented direction and Miles Davis had expressed an interest in working with him there seems to be no evidence on these recordings that Jimi would have moved in any direction other than the one he wanted to. These recordings then are considered historic and as cutting edge as Jimi Hendrix ever was but the style is all of Jimis making.


The disc claims to be "officially licensed from the estate of Hendrix's former manager, Michael Jeffrey" and is a "limited edition - only 1500 copies world-wide", but I think this is just a good trick by the bootleggers to make it look a little bit more like an official release. The sound is great anyway.
