Definitive handmade limited run reissue of Jimi Hendrix Axis: Bold As Love

The Jimi Hendrix Experience Axis: Bold as Love on UHQR 200g 45RPM Mono Clarity Vinyl 2LP from Analogue Productions: Mastered Directly from the Original Master Tape by Bernie Grundman, Pressed at QRP, and Limited to 2,500 Copies
Analogue Productions presents its first UHQR title — Jimi Hendrix's 1967 masterpiece, Axis: Bold As Love

 This UHQR is newly remastered by noted mastering engineer Bernie Grundman from the original analog master tapes. It is pressed at Quality Record Pressings (QRP) using hand-selected Clarity Vinyl, with attention paid to every single detail of every single record. The 200-gram records will feature the same flat profile that helped to make the original UHQR so desirable. From the lead-in groove to the run-out groove, there is no pitch to the profile, allowing the customer's stylus to play truly perpendicular to the grooves from edge to center. Clarity Vinyl allows for a pure pressing and visually stunning presentation. Every UHQR is hand inspected upon pressing completion, packaged in a deluxe clamshell box, and includes a booklet detailing the entire process of making a UHQR along with a hand-signed certificate of inspection. 

Axis: Bold As Love, the sensational sophomore release of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, showcased Hendrix's expansive experimentation while acknowledging his early R&B and soul music influences. The album features classics such as "Spanish Castle Magic," "Little Wing," "Castles Made of Sand" and "If 6 Was 9."

As Rolling Stone states, "Jimi Hendrix was the most innovative instrumental genius the rock era produced, a wizard guitar player whose sense of technique never overwhelmed the blues and rock 'n' roll spirit that was the underpinning of his genius. He improvised with the fervor of a born jazzman; he philosophized like the most cosmic rocker, but ultimately his basics were rooted in soul, a reflection of the chitlin circuit, where he cut his teeth."

With the possible exception of Cream, The Jimi Hendrix Experience was debatably the world's finest-ever power trio. Axis was a showcase for Jimi's brash, scintillating songs and the grasp that Jimi and his cohorts — Mitch Mitchell on drums and Noel Redding on bass — had on the studio technology at their disposal, and the lyrical beauty of Hendrix's guitar playing.

Bottom line, January of 1968 brought Axis: Bold As Love to the U.S., an album that expanded Jimi's six-string flame with celestial clarity, and also brought his rapidly evolving songwriting gift to the fore. It was recorded at Olympic Studios in London by Eddie Kramer.

This reissue was cut to lacquer by Bernie Grundman. The plating at QRP was directed by Stan Bishop.

The Axis: Bold As Love UHQR will include a 16-page booklet featuring recording information from the sessions at Olympic Studios in London and an essay written by Brad Tolinski, former editor of Guitar World Magazine.
