Are You Experienced and Are You Experienced (UK Version) Also Available on Mono 200g LP: Get Them Before They Go Out of Print

Music lovers, audiophiles, and collectors: Your chance to hear Jimi Hendrix in pure, unadulterated mono analog sound has arrived for the first time in more than 40 years. Prepare to have your mind blown and re-experience the musician's revolutionary music as if hearing it for the first time.

Out of print for approximately four decades, Jimi Hendrix's mesmerizing Axis: Bold As Love makes its return in mono on a whisper-quiet LP boasting audiophile-quality sound that rivals that of original copies that, when located, demand more than four figures on the used market. Individually pressed on 200g LP by Quality Records Pressings, this limited-edition version is mastered by legendary engineer Bernie Grundman from the original monaural mixes created in 1967 by Chas Chandler, Hendrix, and Eddie Kramer. Original artwork and sequencing round out this extraordinary vinyl LP, released as part of Hendrix 70, a celebration of the iconic guitarist's 70th birthday.

Very few albums radically change the musical and cultural landscape, altering our perceptions by way of a mad combination of forward-looking performance, liberating lyrical narratives, spiritual overtones, and unimaginable sounds. Jimi Hendrix's sophomore Axis: Bold As Love is one of those records, a timeless and prophetic set that still seems as if it comes to us from the future.

Unrelentingly ambitious, deeply mythical, and profoundly virtuosic, the stupendous 1968 collection dives into a pool of lustful psychedelia, earthy blues, cosmic soul, and unhinged rock. Along with jazz-schooled drummer Mitch Mitchell and melodic bassist Noel Redding, Hendrix establishes a new musical language, a foundation on which fellow guitar giants such as Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Pete Townshend, and Prince would build. Ranked by Rolling Stone as the 82nd greatest album ever released, and leagues ahead of its time, Axis: Bold As Love is an absolute must-have for every music lover.

Featuring seminal classics such as “Spanish Castle Magic,” “Little Wing,” and “Castles Made Of Sand,” Axis: Bold As Love stands as one of the Jimi Hendrix Experience's monumental moments, a tapestry scorched with color, sewn together with erotic threads, and varnished with rich personality. Do not miss this seminal, limited-edition mono pressing of a most quintessential recording.
