Album Review

As a single-disc compilation, The Ultimate Experience is hard to beat. Drawing from all of the original Jimi Hendrix Experience albums, the 20-track collection hits all of the major highpoints -- "Purple Haze," "All Along the Watchtower," "Little Wing," "Red House," "The Wind Cries Mary," "Highway Chile," "Angel" -- and gives an accurate impression of why Hendrix was so revolutionary and influential. All three of Hendrix's completed studio albums are mandatory listening, but The Ultimate Experience is a terrific introduction to the guitarist. ~ Thom Owens, All Music Guide

This is a great companion to Hear Music's Rainy Day, Dream Away, as both sets of Jimi's music take a different bent and delivers the fever and the essence of the guitarist.

Will I call him the best guitarist EVER? YES!!
