Comment:

Not content with being the best electric guitarist in history, Jimi was also a truly great writer. His songs are solid enough too bear interpretation in a multiplicity of styles.
Track 9 is the Mission Of Burma / Birdsongs Of The Mesozoic guy not the Dang Me / England Swings one.Track 19 isn't a cover as such but an acid house groove based round a sample of the legendary exclamation in "Fire".

I have no argument to offer. This mix is a debate winner, and no mistake.

Although the King of the Road guy doin Manic Depression would have been interesting. Great mix

Cool stuff! I've always liked Dions' take on "Purple Haze" Makes me wonder what Jimi would have thought of it.

Lovely collection here. Inimitable guy, but some great covers, I'd imagine.
