Are You Experienced dropped on this day May 12, 1967

I can play almost everything on this album, after 40 + years of playing rock guitar…but it still sounds like me, and not Jimi. Every song is great (except, for me, “Remember”, which is merely good).

This album is like a religious thing for me. Also: an earlier version of Afro-Futurism with the uncanny beauty of “Third Stone From The Sun”:

Strange beautiful grass of green,
With your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine?

You made me listen to the entire album again, for the 900, 000the time. Thanks!
