What can I say? It's amazing from start to finish. Even the wildly out of place Little Miss Strange is there for a reason - think of it as a kind of marker, representing what everyone else was doing in 1968, while the rest of the album is what Jimi was doing. It's kind of cruel to follow Voodoo Child with this throwaway Noel Redding number, but it helps to place the album in a wider context and makes you realise just how mind-blowing Hendrix's work was.

It would get 4/5, but the lingering taste of Thornography is such that I can't allow a better mark. Also, Death of Love? What the fuck is that doing on here?		3.5
