♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪♫♪
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'> 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>One of the most stunning debuts in rock history, and one of the
definitive albums of the psychedelic era  On Are You Experienced?, Jimi Hendrix synthesized various elements of
the cutting edge of 1967 rock into music that sounded both futuristic and
rooted in the best traditions of rock, blues, pop, and soul. It was his
mind-boggling guitar work, of course, that got most of the ink, building upon
the experiments of British innovators like Jeff Beck and Pete Townshend to
chart new sonic territories in feedback, distortion, and sheer volume. It
wouldn't have meant much, however, without his excellent material, whether
psychedelic frenzy ("Foxey Lady," "Manic Depression,"
"Purple Haze"), instrumental freak-out jams ("Third Stone From
the Sun"), blues ("Red House," "Hey Joe"), or tender,
poetic compositions ("The Wind Cries Mary") that demonstrated the
breadth of his songwriting talents. Not to be underestimated were the
contributions of drummer Mitch Mitchell and bassist Noel Redding, who gave the
music a rhythmic pulse that fused parts of rock and improvised jazz. Many of
these songs are among Hendrix's very finest; it may be true that he would
continue to develop at a rapid pace throughout the rest of his brief career,
but he would never surpass his first LP in terms of consistently high quality.
The British and American versions of the album differed substantially when they
were initially released in 1967.

style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>For its extraordinary
contribution to the modern music, superb production, craftsmanship, fine
musicianship, revolutionary significance and influence it exerted on numerous
generations of musicians, writers and general public, or for some other innate
quality, this album was voted one of top-200 albums of all time in one of the
largest poll of critics, music reviewers, professionals and producers ever
organized: the poll, which was conducted by Paul Gambaccini, legendary BBC
Radio A&R man, surveyed more than 50 top music professionals (including Roy
Carr, Jonathan Cott, Robert Christgau, Cameron Crowe, Chet Flippo, Ben
Fong-Torres, Charlie Gillett, Greil Marcus, Murray the K., Lenny Kaye, Bruce
Morrow (a/k/a "Cousin Brucie"), Tim Rice (of "Jesus Christ
Superstar" and "Evita" fame), Lisa Robinson, Robert Shelton (who
wrote liner notes for Bob Dylan's first album), Ed Ward, Joel Whitburn, Pete
Wingfield, etc.). For more details, see: "Critics Choice: Top-200

RECORD
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'> 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>(IMPORTANT NOTE:
unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!;
we  grade records under the strong,
diffuse room light or discrete sunlight) style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'> 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>(a)         
WE GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT.
This is one of those albums that are somewhat difficult to grade. It is
somewhere between VG++ and NEAR MINT, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A
few light abrasions ARE visible, but they are extremely shallow,
superficial  and only moderately
visually distracting (nothing significant).For the most part, the vinyl looks
impeccable without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the
original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'> 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>(b)         
The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>
 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>(c)          
The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which
was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on
such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not
expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>
 
style='mso-bidi-font-weight:normal'>(d)         
Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior,
digital recording!!!
