Although I wasn't expecting to even buy it, I did decide to go ahead and get the last Hendrix CD of previously unreleased songs--People, Hell, and Angels.
This song "Crash Landing" is my favorite song by far. Unlike the earlier version, this one doesn't have studio musicians who were brought in to overdub parts. Billy Cox is playing bass but I don't know who the drummer is--evidently not Mitch Mitchell, though. The song was about his girlfriend Devon Wilson, the one that "Dolly Dagger" was written about. But this version has never been heard before. Besides the guitar which I like very much, I like Billy Cox's bass as well or better than anything I've ever heard him play. But the highlight is Hendrix's guitar playing, of course. Nothing like this will ever be released again. This is the last of the previously unreleased recordings. If anyone is thinking of buying this CD, I'd recommend the Target exclusive which has 20 minutes of extra tracks (for the same price as the regular version.) Nevertheless, Crash Landing, as far as I know was considered a reject by everyone. It was abandoned and morphed into the song "Freedom" which I've never liked, but I suppose a lot of other people do. I can't stand it, but I like Crash Landing very much. Needless to say, when most people think of Crash Landing, they think of this--
