The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Foxey Lady (Miami Pop 1968)
#38yearsWithoutJimi
Always my favorite, perhaps because it's in the playlist of my party set. This one was a blessing with that crazy rhythm.

Let’s remember the greatest. He’s not my ā€œfavorite,ā€ but he’s so unique that, I repeat, there’s him and then the various personal rankings begin... a bit like @[sfascia carrozze] ... there’s him, then we start with the best.

Too much talent, too much genius... you could see it from how he ā€œusedā€ the guitar...

So, to those losers who talk behind his back... I’m not the one saying this (which would already be more than enough), but all the greatest in Rock... and if they say it, that this guy was from another planet...

Goodbye Jimi...
 
Burial At Sea If they covered all the albums by Saint Vitus, it would be a favor to humanity (but especially to the Vitus who recorded with the vocalist).

Coroner Purple Haze

Maybe the good Jimi would have appreciated it.
Maybe.
 
Scott Walker - The Cockfighter "Levitation"? "Muzakians"? "Isolabile"? I wouldn't know which one to choose. "Electrofona" for that punch of bass and electronics in the central break? Absolute genius. This is the masterpiece, along with the equally sublime "Farmer In The City", from his last fabulous work dating back to 1995, "Tilt".
 
Peter Murphy - Cuts You Up A masterpiece of his solo career along with "Strange Kind Of Love" (played by Sergio a few weeks ago).

Melange - Viento Bravo (Beyond Beyond is Beyond Records, November 17, 2017)

Beyond Beyond Is Beyond Records never releases ordinary records. On the contrary. It is truly worth listening to each of their releases with great interest and acquiring them blind, as the outcome will always be excellent. Among the now countless neo-psychedelic bands in the old continent, this Spanish group (a quintet comprised of Adrian and Sergio Ceballos, Daniel Fernandez, Miguel Roson, and Mario Zamora) stands out particularly for its sound and the great variety and quality of the proposed sounds. Formed in Madrid in 2014, "Viento Bravo" is the second album by Melange: to label it neo-psychedelic might evoke a certain type of music that has become massively widespread in Europe, making it somewhat of a misleading indication. The quintet actually branches out into a sound that I would describe as truly very distinctive. They could certainly remind one of a certain King Gizzard histrionics, with moments of fusion ("Splendor Solis"), tropicalism ("Cotard"), even flamenco and bolero ("Oxi," "Siempre Avanti"), Morricone-esque visions ("Ruinas"), while clearly dominating a vintage inspiration that is enhanced with progressive timings and typical use of keyboards. Truly an incredible little record, I had it set aside for a long time; not listening to it would have been blasphemous.
