The 8xLP Winterland vinyl box set features never-before released material from Jimi's legendary six-show run at San Francisco's Winterland Ballroom from October 10-12, 1968. A one-of-a-kind collection, it gives fans the rare opportunity to compare each show's versions of classics like "Hey Joe," "Purple Haze," "Are You Experienced?," "Tax Free," and "Foxy Lady." Also included are covers of Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love," Howlin' Wolf's "Killing Floor," and Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone," as well as a rare backstage interview recorded at the Boston Garden a few weeks after the Winterland shows. Sony Legacy has also reissued Hendrix's posthumous live album Hendrix in the West as an expanded double LP featuring an additional five previously unreleased live tracks. Out of print in the U.S. since 1974, Hendrix in the West is comprised of material recorded between 1969 and 1970 at venues ranging from the Berkeley Community Theatre to the Isle of Wight Festival. Both releases feature stellar album art and previously unpublished images of Hendrix.
