Electric Lady Studios - A Jimi Hendrix Vision
(3 CD/1 Blu-ray & 5 LP/1 Blu-ray)
New release set for... when?
This release has perhaps been held up because of the
legal case between the successors of Mitch and Noel and the Hendrix
estate (but that hasn't stopped
the announcement of the LA Forum '69 live album mentioned further up).
More details in the Posthumous Studio Releases section.

At The Royal Albert Hall on October 21st, 2019 there was a special, one night only screening of the long lost footage
of the Jimi Hendrix
Experience live at The Royal Albert Hall (24th of February 1969).
Here is an eye-witness report from fellow Hendrix fan Jacek Witecki:
A few years ago, the judges had ordered that the film remained in the vault until the legal proceedings were fully settled. Full story HERE)

The Hendrix/Jagger Tape?
On November 27th 1969, after dropping by to see The Rolling Stones at Madison Square Gardens, a party was thrown for Jimi at TV presenter Flip Wilson's apartment in the Hotel Navarro. After the party Jimi and Mick Jagger went round to the home of Deering Howe. They got the guitars out and with Howe on harmonica, the three of them played tracks from The Stones new album "Let It Bleed"! A proto "Dolly Dagger" was also captured on the tape machine which recorded the whole thing. The tape remains in the possession of Mr. Howe who promised to Mick that that was where it would remain (unfortunately for us).
Many thanks to Yazid Manou for bringing this information to us.
The Hendrix/ Zappa Tape?
There are apparently two tapes in the hand's of the Zappa Family trust which feature Jimi jamming with Frank.
One tape is from a jam at the Garrick Theatre in 1967 and the other from a jam in Zappa's basement studio.
The Zappa estate own the tapes and have expressed interest in releasing the studio jam.
This hit the press a couple of years ago but nothing has been heard about it since.
Hey Dweezil, any news?
