On the 15th of September 2014, Experience Hendrix LLC and Legacy Recordings are set to re-release Jimi Hendrix’s albums The Cry Of Love and Rainbow Bridge onto CD, Vinyl and via digital formats for the first time in decades. Before Jimi’s untimely death in 1970, the revered musician was instrumental in developing and experimenting with new guitar sounds. What Hendrix achieved sonically redefined the notions of modern recording, catalyzing the evolving scene of popular music.
The Cry Of Love was released in 1971 and reached number 3 in the US charts and #2 in the UK charts, whereas Rainbow Bridge has never been released on CD. The release will shine light onto the upcoming film Jimi: All Is By My Side starring Andre 3000, which documents Hendrix’s early life in the UK.
