Ashamed to say - but this movie soundtrack is what got me on to Jimi Hendrix.

Ashamed to say - but this movie soundtrack is what got me on to Jimi Hendrix.

I was recovering from a surgery for a few weeks as a 16 year old kid back in 1998 and I got a stack of CDs to help. This movie soundtrack was one and when I heard “Red House”, I was floored. It is still my favorite Jimi song after all these years. This opened me up to SRV, the three kings and everything else I love today.

As an intermediate guitar player, this song, Texas Flood and Blue Sky just hit so much different for me.

New listener but this is the song that keeps me searching for more.

44 years old and a huge blues fan(all the Kings, but SRV especially). I’ve seen the Black Crowes 20 times Billy Strings half a dozen times and Allman at Fillmore is top 5 for me. I have always been intrigued by the Dead and always give it a chance on Sirius and other through other recommendations. Closest I got to loving a song was a cover of Sugaree. I love full length concerts and after others praised Spring of 1977 and some guy said Spring of 1990 , I checked out both and holy shit. 1990 is fire. Help on the Way is the song that had me hooked from 3/24/90.

Inspired by that other Azalea post

Inherited this beauty along with a variety of other mature shrubs, but they were neglected. It’s getting a little leggy now, so might prune back a bit. It’s 7 feet tall for scale.
