Are You Experienced, the 1967 debut full-length studio release by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, is widely regarded as the greatest, most influential debut release from any artist.
When first released in 1967, Are You Experienced turned the music world upside down as Hendrix showed everyone exactly what it meant to be "experienced." Remastered from the original two-track mix down master tapes, this all-analog reissue returns to the original 11-song version that was originally released in August 1967. It contains such eternal classics as "Hey Joe," "Purple Haze," "The Wind Cries Mary," "Fire," and the title song, whose backward drum tracks and otherworldly guitar work still sound innovative almost a half-century later.
"A dish-smashing argument with his girlfriend left Hendrix alone to scrawl the words to 'The Wind Cries Mary' in January 1967. A few days later, the guitarist taught the uncharacteristically tender ballad — built around a gentle riff inspired by soul man Curtis Mayfield — to the Experience. The trio knocked out the track in 20 minutes." - Rolling Stone
