i don't think he would care to much for PURPLE RAIN since most of the guitar work is lifted from his catalouge.

It's a silly idea, but Purple Rain, maybe. He could NEVER do the singing though. Sorry, but Jimi ain't as good as Prince vocally.

... I wish it would be "Dirty Mind"
but i'm afraid it would be "The Rainbow Children"

Hendrix was getting interested in Jazz too .....
"Band of Gypsies" and the albums released after his dead ... don't come close to the first three albums .... Hendrix was losing is too!! ..... I hate f*ckin' jazz: musical masterbation

Around The World In A Day is more of Jimi's vibe...so, if this was Jimi's timeframe. It would have come right after "Electric Ladyland." Lyrically in the same types of themes, etc. "Have you ever been...to Electric Ladyland..." or "the girl on the seesaw is laughing for love...Paisley Park is in your heart." Didn't TTD/Sanada say something like "We are all droplets of water from the same fountain..." Something wild like that. razz

No dis at all to to great JH but yes I agree, Jimi floored people by his presence and his talent, I think he even knew he wasn't a great singer if at all but hey it was the hippi generation, all the tunes back then were wild and to me often physco sounding, jimi just did great shit with the axe and went with the flow.

I agree. Purple Haze, I mean Purple Rain is Prince basically bringing Hendrix to 1984. Not only the music and the solos but the wardrobe as well. Purple Rain is damn near a Hendrix tribute album.

Your'e right on target about Around The World and Electric Ladyland. Hendrix would have dug Around The World more than Purple Rain since Prince is biting so hard off of Hendrix.

Zannalee reminds me of Jimi the most.
Chaos & Disorder would be cool too.
what about Blues In C (If I Had A Harem)?
