1001 Album Complaints The Story Behind: Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced, Ep 131
Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Jimi Hendrix landed in London an unsuccessful amateur but very quickly took the scene by storm. A band was hastily assembled around him and they went into the studio to cut a sea change album in Are You Experienced. The boys talk about horse meat, fake confidence, and (of course) 60s recording techniques.
