The Life and Music of Jimi Hendrix: Catching Up on Songwriting
Episode 12
Episode date - October 17, 2025

I’ve been doing my best to maintain a reasonable timeline for the performances and recording dates of our shows, but a few always slip through the cracks.
Perhaps I’m just making excuses, but sometimes it just makes sense to be patient and place the material in a spot where it would be most comfortable for the listener to ‘experience’ them.
Regardless, this is a great time to share these somewhat earlier recordings with you now – at a point when Jimi is starting to gather up material for a third album that he hasn’t even begun to pull together. Let’s listen in on a genius at work.
Featured tracks are:
Little One
Mr. Bad Luck
Cat Talking to Me
Castles Made of Sand
Tears of Rage
Hear My Train a-Comin’
1983 (A Merman I Shall Turn to Be)
Long Hot Summer Night
My Friend
Angel
Calling All the Devil’s Children
New Rising Sun
Have You Ever Been to Electric Ladyland (studio take)
Room Full of Mirrors (studio take)
