    Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsys - pulled this one out since MC said Hendrix was boring and irrelevant now.
    Aw, Hendrix is crap. Aren't you just TIRED of hearing the same songs played over and over on the radio, "Hendrix's Greatest Hits"? They are so boring.
    You won't hear any of this stuff played on the radio but it is among his best work (Hendrix wrote 4 of the six). Along with drum great Buddy Miles and bass player Billy Cox, this live show at the Filmore on New Years Eve 1969 is a wonderful album. Every bit as good of a "power trio" as Cream (and I really like Cream). Miles' version of "Changes" is better on his live album with Carlos Santana...but Hendrix puts an interesting interpretation on this song. 22 minutes of "Who Knows" and "Machine Gun" alone are worth the price of the album.


    Not crap....not boring....timeless!

    Although I do like the direction Hendrix was going w/BOG I must say Buddy Miles is pretty bland as a drummer compared to Mitch Mitchell. MM just adds so much excitement. He's always playing out of his mind, always on the edge, but seems to pull it off brilliantly. His strict jazz style of playing has no equal and really lent to the "space trip" you sometimes get listening to Hendrix. Buddy was much more conventional in style and tended to lay a soild backbone to the rythum section. A different approach w/much different results.

    I can see where MC may feel this way especially about some of the common studio stuff. Live Hendrix is where it's at. Check out some of the BOG songs with Mitch on the drums. Most live Hendrix really allows you to get your Groove On...IMO

    P.S. Just got Buddy Miles-Them Changes cd....haven't listened to it yet. In fact I'll put it in right now!:D

    Buddy Miles -Changes

    A little too soulful for me, not enough groove. My impression may change but I doubt it. Really sounds dated; a couple good tracks. Overall won't be in my rotation. I paid next to nothing for it a while ago so I took a chance, with mediocre results. Everytime I dig in my music pile I discover something lost and forgotten.

    Haven't heard that one, shack....I may have to seek it out. I do have a Jeff Beck/Santana boot called "Reunited" which is excellent.
