Might move on to this:

 
I'm in an Opeth kind of mood.
Earlier today I've been through these:

 

[Vipers]

Nitin Sawhney - One-Zero Boxset

It wasn't cheap but it is definitely one of the best vinyl purchases I have ever made, it was recorded at Metropolis in London using PMC and Bryston and cut straight to vinyl, first time since 1973 or something, sounds sublime

anyone know what albums by Frank Sinatra have studio versions of the songs - Mack the knife and the lady is a tramp? I really want to find a good studio version of Mack the knife.

+1 I found the footage of the Hendrix performance in Miami and the short segment showing Hendrix playing an acoustic guitar particularly interesting. Can you imagine an MTV Unplugged episode (ala Eric Clapton) with Hendrix doing a more extensive performance of his music on acoustic guitar? That would have been so cool!

Yepa, re: PBS ...(like minds , etc) ...
 
Did Jimi ever record playing acoustic g ? - Group wish think, I know .
Though , I do agree an unplugged Jimi session would have been VERY interesting, but I believe he was knowingly
 insecure with his vocal performance skill to do so ,  while deriving confidence to sing from the electric wall of sound playing electric affords -
Though on "Wind Cries Mary", for instance, he is of fine voice , IMO  .
 
Certainly as creative as he was, over time and with age he may have given in to recording an acoustic set perhaps in the 80's MTV unplugged venue even
- unfortunately we will never have that "experience" ;(

Currently listening to the second episode of the free Tokyo Bliss podcast, which features an hour-long DJ mix by Kyohei Akagawa. Still one of my absolute favorites out of the 34 episodes that have come out thus far. Solid from start to finish.

Again and again. I can't even imagine the music that he had left in him. All these years later and it is still such a tragic loss.
