As you may have read, Janie Hendrix (Jimi's half sister and the CEO of Experience Hendrix who was also behind the largely controversial Gibson Jimi Hendirx signature guitar) has collaborated to release the final recording session of jimi Hendrix while he was working on the never released First Rays of the Rising Sun. the album, scheduled to be release March 10, 2010, will be titled Valleys of Neptune.
I admit that I'm a bit skeptical of posthumous releases as they often end up being money grabs featuring a collection of cobbled together tracks which are rarely the artists best work and typically have an unfinished sound to them. That being said, Spinner Canada has leaked the title track of the new album and it's very good. If the rest of the album sounds as good as this, we're in for an incredible treat.
