Axis: Bold As Love is a very underrated album
|
|
After releasing the iconic Are You Experienced? in mid-1967, the Jimi Hendrix Experience were set out to release their sophomore album later that year as part of a contract fulfillment. They ended up recording Axis: Bold As Love is May and June of 1967 and released it at the very end of the year. You could argue that Axis was rushed and that it’s the ‘least greatest’ album from the Experience but it’s still an absolute classic.
Sure, it doesn’t feature the recognizable and acclaimed singles from Are You Experienced or the ‘wow’ factor from Electric Ladyland but this is still a very enjoyable album. Axis features a more warmer, accessible sound with shorter song lengths and showcases Hendrix’s lyrics and songwriting talents more than the previous album.
Highlights include “Little Wing* – the best and most popular song from this album; very gorgeous ballad and among Hendrix’s best songs, "Castles Made of Sand”, “Spanish Castle Magic”, “One Rainy Wish”, and the awesome, complex
