Bleeding Heart

Jimi Hendrix

Raw, high-voltage blues captured live at the Royal Albert Hall. A masterclass in controlled feedback and the emotional limits of the electric guitar.

This isn't the polished studio wizardry of Electric Ladyland or the pop-sensibility of his early singles. This is Hendrix in his most primal, blues-rooted form, stripping away the psychedelic artifice to reveal the skeletal structure of his genius. The air in the recording feels thick with the smell of hot vacuum tubes and the tension of a band reaching its natural conclusion. It is an album for those who want to hear the guitar not just as an instrument, but as a direct conduit for human suffering and ecstasy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the mournful opening of Bleeding Heart into a flurry of percussive, muted-string scratches.
The way the feedback sustains for an impossible length during the climax of Hear My Train A Comin.
The interplay between Mitch Mitchell's jazz-inflected drumming and Jimi's jagged, syncopated rhythm playing on Red House.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
