This double album has a mysterious, druggy aura that his two previous albums didn't have, but it wasn't loosely produced like Dylan's The Basement Tapes or the Stones' Exile on Mainstreet because Hendrix had since turned to be a studio perfectionist. He made himself and bandmates repeating many takes on many tracks. The highlight here is his own arrangement of Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower" and the infamous "Voodoo Chile".
