If you weren’t excited about Jimi Hendrix’s Both Sides Of The Sky, you might change your tune once you hear this preview.
Ten of the album’s 13 tracks have never been released before, and among those tracks is Hendrix’s take on the Muddy Water’s tune “Mannish Boy” which includes Band of Gypsys bassist Billy Cox and drummer Buddy Miles.
Seriously…take a listen for yourself. It is extremely difficult not to dig this preview.
Both Sides Of The Sky is due out March 9 and is currently available for pre-order at JimiHendrix.com.
