I thought I'd get an early start on the week since I have a ball busying week ahead of me. I like this choice, although his comments about punk are out of line...sort of.
5) Radio One--Jimi Hendrix Experience: Picking one Hendrix live album is like eating one Pringle. It doesn’t happen in real life. But this isn’t real life, and no matter how unfair, I chose this one because it has a better track selection than most and features stuff recorded at different times and the sound quality is better than most. I prefer Hendrix’s off nights because it’s more interesting to hear him struggle to keep his guitar in tune than it is to hear him simply blaze through his catalog like it was easy or something. Just as punk bands encourage amateurs to pick up a guitar because anyone could do as well, Hendrix makes you want to put down your guitar and give up because there’s no way to do what this maniac pulled off.
Swish - quite pleased with the Eagles victory today. Ready to face J's Gints next week
