Complain about your schedule. Apparently people like that sort of thing.

5/27/15 Jimi Hendrix

I could have sworn we had done Hendrix. Turns out we hadn't.

I'll go with Voodoo, Crosstown and Mary.

Hard one. Flipping a coin... Looks like it landed on "Red House" but then bounced over to "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)".

Anything on Are You Experienced or Axis Bold as Love.

Hendrix did no wrong. Every track on every album is amazing. That trio on the 1st 2 albums is my favorite stuff.

Wait 'til Tomorrow, Spanish Castle Magic, Manic Depression, Up from the Skies

Wait 'til Tomorrow is my pick, but there's not a wrong answer.

Honorable mentions to May This Be Love, Little Wing and Manic Depression.

My favorite is Crosstown Traffic

How could I forget May This Be Love? another cover the Cavedwellers often did.
I might have to change my pick to that.

Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is amazing, and moving. I'm crazy about Little Wing too, but some time in the 90s I swear it got remixed for CDs or something and now has an annoying xylophone 'DING' throughout. ( I don't think its a harmonic) It kinda kills my enjoyment of it now a days. Was that there before ???

Ooooh... glad I found this before midnight! I gotta weigh in on my favorite. For a long time, "Little Wing" was my favorite, but "Bold as Love" has taken it's place recently!
