Tech Notes Jimi Hendrix Experience - The Blues Project Outtakes.

1994 saw the release of the Alan Douglas produced "Blues" album. This was seen as one of his better efforts during his time managing Jimi's music. A cassette containing three outtakes was sent to a couple of high profile collectors shortly after. This tape contained Villanova Junction Blues, Hear My train A Comin' and Belly Button Window. For a while this tape was in very limited circulation amongst a few hard core collectors. Later the tracks saw the first light of day on the bootleg "500000 Halos"which was named after line in a poem written by Jimi post Woodstock. However there were more outtakes than those three and more has leaked out over the years (albeit in limited circulation).

I am slightly dubious about the generation of this material but it is nevertheless of extremely high quality. There is a certain amount of tape hiss present here and there but that could just be from the transfer to cassette. The cassette I originally received with the three tracks exhibited slight hiss as well. The tracks on this disc are taken from a set of 11 CDRS titled the Blues Project Outtakes.

Notes

Hear My train A Comin' is a composite made by Douglas of two different takes. New Rising Sun and the 27 minute Band Of Gypsys Villanova jam are not in general circulation as far as I know. Country Blues was released on the EH Box Set but this version of the straight mix is longer.

1. New Rising Sun (8.26)
2. Country Blues (straight mix) (8.37)
3. Hear My train A Comin' (8.07)
4. Belly Button Window (2.25)
5. The Things That I used To Do (5.45)
6. Villanova Junction Blues Jam (27.34)
7. 3 Little Bears- South Saturn Delta (12.44)
