The Jimi Hendrix Experience – 3 Nights At Winterland (Limited Edition 6 CD Box Set)

6 complete October 1968 Winterland performances presented together for the first time officially licensed from the estate of Hendrix’s former manager, Michael Jeffery

This is a numbered, limited edition – only 2000 copies world-wide

The more than 6 hours of live music assembled here gives Hendrix fans the first opportunity to compare The Experience’s live performances 2-performances per night 3-day recorded during the band’s temporary residence at San Francisco’s Winterland arena. Given that these recordings have been assembled from a variety of different sources, the sound quality (with the exception of the last 3 tracks on Disc 3, which, as the soundboard tape mysteriously stopped running, have been taken from a less-than perfect audience recording) is excellent, and as usual, Jimi’s virtuoso delivery is as varied and unpredictable as ever, as are the technical problems which were invariably the sub-text of the majority of Hendrix concerts.
