Jimi's voice is perfect and the backing singing is equally great. Have You Ever Been (to Electric Ladyland) The first track that features Jimi singing starts off with a sound like a clock ticking and with no notice Jimi's voice comes out asking the listener if they have ever been to electric ladyland, no intro nessacary. Many back tracks and delays are put into the the sounds to make them feel like a swirling sound coming out of your speakers. Psyschedelic sounds and deep noises that remotley sound like the voices of gods. Jimi's and Eddie Kramer's mixboard masterpiece opens the album and makes the listener aware that they are not listening to an ordinary album.
And the Gods Made Love The opening track starts off with two giant bangs. To top it all of legendary engineer Eddie Kramer would help produce the album adding in effects and multple guitar tracks to make Electric Ladyland just that more mind blowing. Electric Ladyland also features drummer Buddy Miles who would later go on to be in the Band of Gypsies with Hendrix. The album features many other musicians such as Jack Casady from the Jefferson Airplane and Steve Winwood from Traffic. It's was Henrdix's third and final album with the band known as the Jimi Hendrix Experience and arguably his finest. Jimi had all ready realeased an album in 1968 but already had enough material to go ahead and release another album, a double album. October 1968, 15 months after Hendrix had been introduced to the U.S.
