Product: Classic Albums: Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland (1997)
Rating: 5.0
more than a pop genius
Jimi is often presented as a great guitarist in the realm of pop music. This film reveals how far from the truth that is.... The incredible delicacy and fluency Jimi created is likened in the film to Mozart, and the comparison is apt. He had an infallible sense of theme, variation, harmony, and conceptual completeness..., and the most compelling thing is that only lyrics were written down. The rest happened in Jimi's 'imagination.' The only place one can experience Jimi down deep where he really lived is found here, in "Jimi Hendrix."
