Jimi Hendrix - First Rays of the New Rising Sun (Sony)
I stayed away from Hendrix's posthumous releases for many years, not wanting to hear any "half-baked" Hendrix.  My son, who's a Hendrix fanatic, brought this home a few years ago. When I finally heard it playing in his room one day, I was shocked by how fully realized -- and flat-out GREAT -- it sounds. Billy Cox brings so much to this music, an incredibly funky and soulful vibe.  . . . When Hendrix died, I was two years old.  If I could travel back in time to hear Hendrix in person, I'd rather hear the band on this record (with Cox & Mitch Mitchell) than even the classic "Jimi Hendrix Experience" with Noel Redding.
