PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED ALTERNATE VERSION
Recorded three weeks after the grou p'S legendary Fillmore East
concerts, the Band Of Gypsys meticulously crafted this
prototypical illustration of sophisticated funk.
Hendrix would revisit the track on February 3, 1970, overdubbing
guitar parts and creating a rough mix. At that stage, work on "Power Of Soul" drew to
a close. Hendrix instead chose to feature a live version of the song as part of Band or
Gypsys, issued in March 1970.
The January/February 1970 studio recording of "Power Of Soul" was shelved until the
marathon mixing sessions Hendrix staged at Electric Lady Studios in August 1970. As
Jimi reviewed the many contenders for his projected double album First Rays orThe
New Rising Sun, "Power Of Soul" was treated to a new rough mix, resulting in the
unique delay effect heard during the song's opening.
Because "Power Of Soul" had been featured on Band orGypsys, Jimi had not reserved
a position for the song on First Rays orThe New Rising Suno Although considered for
The Cry orLave, the first posthumous album of Jimi's unissued studio material,
"Power Of Soul" remained unavailable until a truncated version was overhauled and
included as part of the controversial 1975 compilation Crash Landing. Inexplicably,
the originai master was edited and remixed to accommodate overdubs recorded in
1974 by session percussionist Jimmy Maeulen. Lasting only 3:15 and retitled "With
The Power", the elaborate introduction and its two soaring lead guitar solos were
scrapped.
The version featured on this compilation discards the posthumous additions, restoring
the full length version with ali of its regal glory intact.

ORIGINALLY ISSUED AS PART OF WAR HEROES.
Written by Bo Hansson and Jan Carlsson, "Tax Free" was
recorded at the outset of sessions for Electr;c Ladyland.
Despite its relative obscurity, the Experience discovered
the song during an earlier tour of Sweden. Hendrix, in
particular, relished the song's freewheeling arrangement
and intricate time changes.
Under Chas Chandler's direction, the Experience
record ed the basic track for "Tax Free" at Olympic
Studios on January 26, 1968. Additional work was
completed two days later, including the recording of the
distinctive rhythm guitar part fed through a Leslie organ
speaker, but the song was not yet complete. When
production for Electr;c Ladyland shifted to the Record
Plant, work on "Tax Free" continued. On May l,1968,
Jimi finally turned the corner, enhancing the final master
via a series of guitar overdubs.
Though "Tax Free" was not incl uded as part of Electric
Ladyland, the grou p often performed the song duri ng
their 1969 American and European tours. Eddie
Kramer, the originai engineer on both the Olympic and
Record Plant session dates, would later remix the song
with John Jansen in January 1972 so that it would be
included as part of the posthumous compilation War
Heroes.

ORIGINAllY ISSUED AS PART OF LOOSE ENDS.
erhaps the most outlandish of all of Jimi's studio
recordings, "The Stars That Play With Laughing Sam's
Dice" is laced with his searing guitar work and unique
humor. Recorded at New York's Mayfair Studios shortly
a er the Experience's triumphant US debut at the
onterey Pop Festival in June 1967, the sessions for
bo h "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" and "The Stars
That Play With Laughing Sam's Dice" were among the
oup's first to utilize eight-track technology. Apart from
Is whimsical lyrics, the song's most prominent
characteristics were the sounds Jimi obtained from
s omping on customized tone pedals designed by Roger
ayer, a London based electron ics maven. Mayer, who
e riended Hendrix shortly after his arrival in London ,
as famed for the creation of such devices as the
Octavia, a tone pedal which allowed Hendrix to jump
octaves on the guitar with a simple flip of a switch.
Originally issued as the B-side of the 1967 Track
ecords UK "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" single,
"The Stars That Play With Laughing Sam's Dice" was
la er added to the 1968 UK compi lation Smash Hits.
The version included here was remixed by Eddie

ELECTRIC LADY STUDIOS, JANUARY 28, 1972
GUITAR: JIMI HENDRIX
BASS: NOEL REDDING
DRUMS: MITCH MITCHEll
ORIGINAllY ISSUED AS PART OF WAR HEROES.
Following a difficult and unproductive series of sessions
at Olympic Studios in February 1969, the Experience
did not return to the recording studio as a unit until
April, when they gathered at New York's Olmstead
Studios to try and recapture their momentum.
One of the most promising songs to emerge from these
early April 1969 sessions was the extended instrumental
"Midnight". Jimi had originally designated "Midnight
Lightning" as the song's title, before it was shortened
simply to "Midnight". "Midnight", like "Tax Free", was
hardly the result of an impromptu jam session. Instead,
the Experience devoted considerable time to
establishing the song's intricate rhythm pattern. With
that properly established, Hendrix carefully labored over
a series of inspired lead guitar lines.
The break-up of the Experience in June 1969 relegated
"Midnight" to the sidelines, where it joined a growing
stockpi Ie of original material the group had earmarked for
their fourth album. As a result, "Midnight" would remain
unreleased until it was mixed and put forward as part of
the posthumous compilation War Heroes in 1972.

 

 

 

BLEEDING HEART

ELECTRIC LADY STUDIOS, NEW YORK, JUNE, 1970
PRODUCER: JIMI HENDRIX
ENGINEER: JACK ADAMS [RECORD PLANT]
EDDIE KRAMER [ELECTRIC LADY]
MIXED By EDDIE KRAMER AND JOHN JANSEN
ELECTRIC LADY STUDIOS, MARCH 11, 1971
GUITAR, VOCALS: JIMI HENDRIX
BASS: BILLY COX
DRUMS: MITCH MITCHELL
ORIGINALLY ISSUED AS PART OF WAR HEROES.
Like "Room Full Of Mirrors", "Bleeding Heart"
began as a twelve-bar bl ues before evolvi ng as an
uptempo Hendrix original.
As Jimi had transformed B.B. King's "Rock Me
Baby" into his own "Lover Man", "Bleeding Heart"
was modeled first on the original recording by the
legendary slide guitarist Elmore James. Both the
Experience and Band Of Gypsys performed
exceptional stage interpretations of the blues
classic in its original form. Yet, beginning with the
April 1969 Olmstead Studios sessions, Jimi began
to tinker with the song's structure, modifying its
elements unti I he had rei nvented it as h is own.
Hendrix maintained the song's blues heritage, but
altered the arrangement to accommodate new,
original lyrics and a faster tempo.
With Electric Lady Studios still under construction
and unavailable to him, Hendrix entered the Record
Plant on March 24, 1970 and captured the basic
track for "Bleeding Heart" with the last of four
inspired takes.
Like "Ezy Ryder", "Stepping Stone", "Izabella" and
many other Record Plant recordings from this
period, the master reel for "Bleeding Heart" would
be transferred to Electric Lady in May 1970.
Additional guitar parts would be overdubbed at the
new facility and Mitch Mitchell replaced the existing
percussion tracks with new drum parts. A rough mix
by Hendrix and Kramer encompassing these
improvements was made before the guitarist's
death, but no final master was achieved.

 

PALI GAP

PRODUCER: JIMI HENDRIX
ENGINEER: EDDIE KRAMER

ELECTRIC LADY STUDIOS, MAY 12, 1971
GUITAR: JIMI HENDRIX
BASS: BillY COX
DRUMS: MITCH MITCHEll
PERCUSSION: JUMA SULTAN
ORIGINAllY ISSUED AS PART OF RAINBOW BRIOGE.
Recorded on what was perhaps his most productive night at Electric
Lady Studios, "Pali Gap" originally began as the instrumental jam
immediately following the master take of "Dolly Dagger."
Originally marked on the tape box as "Slow Part", "Pali Gap" actually
began as the recording of the basic track for "Dolly Dagger" drew to a
close. "As 'Dolly Dagger' began to come apart," explains Eddie
Kramer, "Billy Cox started playing the bass line to 'Gimme Some
Lovin',' the Spencer Davis Group song, and that developed into a jam
lasting nearly ten minutes."
Nearly three minutes into the jam, Hendrix shifted gears into "Pali
Gap" and the group fell in behind in full stride. "When the jam started,
Jimi was just [messing] around," remembers Kramer. "The tone he
was using was just his quiet jam tone, with the'amplifier turned down
some, and not the full-bore Marshall sound he had used to cut the
basic track for 'Dolly Dagger'. Afterwards, he overdubbed a second
guitar and new solo, with the Marshall back at full volume. He did
these with the Uni-Vibe, as well as a Leslie at the end."
While Hendrix never officially named this recording, the title "Pali Gap"
was coined after the guitarist's death by his manager, Michael Jeffery.
One of the producers of the ill-fated hippie docudrama Rainbow Bridge,
Jeffery hoped the new title "Pali Gap" would further wed the song to the
movie's Hawaiian locale. An edited version of the instrumental was
issued as part of the 1971 Rainbow Bridge film and its accompanying
soundtrack album.


DRIFTER'S ESCAPE

DRUMS: MITCH MITCHELL
PERCUSSION: JUMA SULTAN
PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED ALTERNATE VERSION.
The last of several inspired interpretations of Bob Dylan's
catalog by Jimi, "Drifter's Escape" ranked as a strong contender
for First Rays Of The New Rising Sun. The song's basic track was
achieved during an enthusiastic June 17, 1970 session. Hendrix
was intent on perfecting a series of lead guitar overdubs before the
song would be deemed complete. This master features additional
guitar parts recorded on July 19 and 20 as Jimi made a number of
attempts to try and realize a specific sound and tone for his lead guitar.
Unlike the track posthumously mixed by John Jansen and included as part of
Loose Ends, this version of "Drifter's Escape" was mixed by Hendrix and Kramer
during the lengthy overdub and mixing sessions staged at Electric Lady in the days
prior to the guitarist's departure for the August 1970 Isle Of Wight Festival in England.

INTRODUCTION
Often called the era of excess, the seventies were certainly an era of excessive change.
On the heels of the tumultuous sixties, myriad forms of rock sprang up, seemingly
overnight, and became codified. The rock family tree sprouted several new branches
including such divergent idioms as heavy metal, funk rock, jazz/rock fusion, power pop,
and progressive rock. Throughout it all, the riff reigned supreme. This volume is dedicated
to seventeen of the period's greatest riffmasters-the pioneers and innovators who
made the music and gave us the riffs that will live forever in the annals of rock and roll.

YOU REALLY GOT ME
Words and Music by Ray Davies
Figure 15-lntro and verse
We tend not to think of Van Halen as a "seventies band" because their work in the
next two decades came to be so historically important, musically innovative, and sweepingly
influential, but it's a fact. The self-titled debut record, released in 1978, was a barometer
indicating a change of climate in the future. Just as Jimi Hendrix had done eleven
years earlier, Van Halen defined a new direction and style for the coming age in tunes like
"Runnin' with the Devil," "I'm the One," "Eruption," and "You Really Got Me." Apparently the
public agreed and responded-"You Really Got Me" made it to the Top 40 and became
Van Halen's first hit single. The band already had been rearranging cover tunes for years
in their early gigging days around Hollywood, transforming them and making them their
own. "You Really Got Me" is a perfect example of how they did it-in Ed's words, "a hot
tune we turned into a jet airplane" -and a perfect vehicle for the maiden voyage of the
power quartet in the waning years of the seventies.
Screaming into the space after the close of "Eruption," the crushing intro riff in "You
Really Got Me" hits you squarely in the face like a left jab. Ed Van Halen converted the
Kinks' shifting barre-chord figure into a harder, more streamlined, very Van Halenesque
open-chord riff in the intro and verses. Deceptively simple, it is founded on a single AS
power chord with an added low G on the sixth string. Many of Ed's "neat noises" abound
in the figure as fills and extra texture, including muffled, percussive chord strums, pick
slides, pinch harmonics, and snarling low bends on the sixth string. The basic rhythmic
pattern and chordal idea are moved to different harmonic levels in the verses. Here, barre
chord and movable power chord versions of the main riff are found as the progression
moves to Band E tonal centers. Check out the intriguing and subtle variations Ed throws
into the figures along the way in the form of licks, fills, and varied interpretations of the
song's thematic motif. His licks and fills have endured in their own right as essential and
invaluable riffs, and have become embedded in the very core of contemporary rock guitar lore.
 

IRON MAN
Words and Music by Frank lommi, John Osbourne, William Ward, and Terence Butler
Figure 4-lntro, verse, chorus, and interlude
1971 was a watershed year for metal. While Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin were building a stairway to heaven, a Birmingham blues band asked the unthinkable question: Is there life after Zep? Arriving with thundering riffs, sinister occult themes, and dark gothic trappings, the answer came in the form of Black Sabbath. Sabbath is generally acknowledged as the first official heavy metal band-setting undeniable precedents for the late-seventies metal renaissance ("The New Wave of British Heavy Metal"), as well as the thrash/speed metal school of the eighties, and the grunge/metal of the ninetiesa fact underscored by the numerous bands that cite Sabbath as influential-Iron Maiden, Van Halen, Metallica, Pantera, and Soundgarden, among many others. "Iron Man," from the landmark Paranoid album, is one of the heaviest and best riff-based songs of their definitive early period.
"Iron Man" abounds with numerous riffs-each with a purpose, each well-placed in the arrangement. The main "Iron Man" theme is one of metal's most memorable riffs and is heard throughout the song. It appears in the intro as a rhythm figure made of parallel two-note power chords in B minor, spelling out the B natural minor scale (B-C#- D-E-F#-G-A). In the verses, a single-note version of this riff, derived from the roots of the power chords, is used. Between the first and second verses, a second single-note riff in B minor is found as both a connection and a transition. This figure employs chromatic notes in its ascending melody (meas. 23). In the interlude, a different riff is played against a double-time feel (which sets up the guitar solo). This riff is a single-note line which modulates up to C# minor, and uses notes of the C# blues scale (C#-E-F#-G-G#-B) which comes off like a deft manipulation of Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love" theme. Notice the tough accenting, staccato attack, and syncopation in the phrase which give it plenty of rhythmic character and push forcefully toward Tony's solo.
