What Jimi Hendrix requested, in his own words...
Dear Sirs, Here are the pictures we would like for you to use anywhere on the LP cover. Preferably inside and back. Without the white frames around some of the B/W ones. And with most of them next (aside) to each other in different sizes and mixing the color prints at different points. For instance: Please use color picture with us and the kids on the statue for front or back cover - (outside cover) and the other back or front side, (outside cover) please use three good pictures of us. In B/W or color. 
--- We would like to make an apologize for takeing so very long long to send this but we have been working very hard indeed doing shows and recording. (...) Please, if you can, find a nice place and lettering for the few words I wrote named "Letter to the room full of mirrors" on the L.P. cover. The scetch on the other page is a rough idea of course ... 
but please use the pictures and the words - any other drastic change from these directions would not be appropriate according to the music and our group's present stage - and the music is most important. And we have enough personal problems without haveing to worry about this simple yet effective layout. Thank you. Jimi Hendrix =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= tA  Tribal Disorder

http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 see and the fucked up thing Warner didn't give a rat's ass what he thought. At least Janie is doing what her brother would want her to do. | |
