Loose Ends
Loose Ends was the fourth and last posthumous Jimi Hendrix album released under the careful supervision of his manager Michael Jeffery. It was engineered, mixed, and compiled by John Jansen, and features a collection of studio outtakes and jams with the exception of “The Stars that Play with Laughing Sam’s Dice.” This psychedelic track is the most complete song of the collection, and dates back to July 1967. “Blue Suede Shoes” includes Hendrix and Buddy Miles’ creative process as they try to come up with a backbeat for their cover. Also included is a cover of Bob Dylan’s “Drifter’s Escape.” “Burning Desire” features a standout guitar solo and shows Hendrix and crew really jamming, while “Hoochie Coochie Man” shows them having fun. Many of these song fragments are actually stronger in their simplicity. Yet, due to all of its loose ends, Hendrix’ label refused to issue the album in the US and Canada.
