On September 13, Experience Hendrix L.L.C., in partnership with Legacy Recordings, the
catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, is releasing Electric Lady Studios: A Jimi
Hendrix Vision, a deluxe box set offering 39 tracks (38 previously unreleased) that were
recorded by the new-look Jimi Hendrix Experience (Billy Cox on bass, Mitch Mitchell on
drums) at Electric Lady Studios between June and August of 1970, just before the legendary musician’s untimely death the following month.
The project includes 20 newly created 5.1 surround sound mixes of the entire First Rays Of The New Rising Sun album plus three bonus tracks [“Valleys Of Neptune,” “Pali Gap,”
and “Lover Man”]. The Blu-ray includes the critically acclaimed, full-length documentary
Electric Lady Studios: A Jimi Hendrix Vision. The film chronicles the creation of the studio, rising from the rubble of a bankrupt Manhattan nightclub to becoming a state-of-the-art recording facility inspired by Hendrix’s desire for a permanent studio. The documentary includes never-before-seen footage and photos as well as track breakdowns of Hendrix classics such as “Freedom,” Angel” and “Dolly Dagger” by recording engineer Eddie Kramer. The package includes an extensive booklet filled with unpublished photos, Hendrix’s handwritten song drafts, and comprehensive liner notes.
