Originally assembled as a posthumous album from Hendrix’s final studio period, The Cry Of Love captures a bandleader in transition—moving past pure psychedelic flash into tighter songcraft, bigger dynamics, and a warmer, more reflective mood. It’s not a “hits” package; it plays like a real album, threading uplift (“Freedom”) through dreamier moments (“Drifting”) and tough, road-ready rockers. What makes it gripping is how human it feels: Hendrix’s voice sits closer, the lyrics land more personally, and the guitar work is less about endless fireworks and more about touch, melody, and colour. Tracks like “Angel” and “In From The Storm” show a writer chasing clarity without losing the bite. On vinyl, the pacing really works—two sides that move from airiness to punch, with plenty of space for the rhythm section to breathe. If you’ve only heard the big singles, this is one of the best doorways into the deeper late-period Hendrix catalogue.

The Cry Of Love is often where listeners hear Hendrix as a developing songwriter and arranger, not just a revolutionary guitarist. It presents key late-era recordings in a satisfying album flow, balancing soulful balladry with sharp-edged rock—an essential complement to the core studio trilogy.

This is a reissue LP edition (often found as a numbered pressing). Exact mastering and pressing plant can vary by batch, but it’s typically sought for giving these late-period tracks a cohesive, album-first listen. If you care about specific matrices or numbering, message Kilmorna and we’ll confirm what’s on the copy in hand.

Wide, dynamic classic-rock sound: big drums, thick bass, and that unmistakable Hendrix guitar—fuzzy when it needs to be, glassy and chiming on the softer cuts. Ballads feel spacious; rockers hit hard.

Is this a studio album or a compilation? It’s a posthumous album assembled from Hendrix’s final studio recordings. It’s curated like a proper album rather than a random vault dump, which is why it flows so well. What kind of Hendrix is this—heavy or mellow? Both. You get driving rock (“Freedom,” “Ezy Ryder,” “In From The Storm”) alongside airy, melodic moments like “Drifting” and “Angel.” Does this LP include the track “Angel”? Yes—“Angel” is part of the album sequence on this edition.
