Jimi Hendrix Experience Electric Ladyland - 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition LP/Blu-Ray

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the release of the Jimi Hendrix Experience masterpiece Electric Ladyland, Sony Music Entertainment are releasing the Electric Ladyland Deluxe Edition box set on November 9. Available as a 6LP/1 Blu-ray set, the vinyl package include the original double album, now newly remastered by Bernie Grundman from the original analogue tapes.

For the LP set, Grundman prepared an all analogue direct to disc vinyl transfer of the album, preserving the authenticity. Also included in Electric Ladyland Deluxe Edition is:

Electric Ladyland: The Early Takes, which presents demos and studio outtakes from this period in Hendrix’s career, plus a new 5.1 surround sound mix of the entire original album by Hendrix’s original engineer Eddie Kramer. This marks the first and only time this has been done with a Hendrix studio album, and gives listeners the original stereo mixes in uncompressed 24 bit/96 kz high resolution audio.

The previously unreleased live album Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live At the Hollywood Bowl 9/14/68, part of Experience Hendrix’s official ‘bootleg’ series. This live album documents their triumphant Los Angeles concert held a few weeks before Electric Ladyland was released.

At Last… The Beginning: The Making of Electric Ladyland (Blu-ray) documents the creation of the legendary double album.  Some of Jimi’s closest associates are seen on screen discussing their first-hand recollections of Hendrix and the project.

Lastly, Electric Ladyland Deluxe Edition includes a full colour, 48-page book containing Jimi’s handwritten lyrics, poem and instructions to his record label, as well as never before published photos from the recording sessions that were shot by Eddie Kramer himself.
