Electric Ladyland

With the notable exception of a couple of songs, I don't really care for a double album of someone taking psychedelics.

Hendrix vind ik echt super, maar zijn albums zijn voor mij toch vaak iets te bluesy en wisselvallig.

Not for me...anymore. I technically should be a Hendrix fan but I'm just a greatest hits hero. Crosstown Traffic is bluesy but the rest and bit stoney...and I don't get stoned any more.

It was alright. Good background music

Ist ja nicht so meines die 70er. Und ja Drogen helfen nicht.

A bit too psychedelic and the bluey for me

Not really my thing.

The best song on this bloated catastrophe is a cover. That's all you need to know.

Very meandering the Beatles are better

Nope. Not for me.

That's a real rough start for an album ngl. I guess I'm just not the biggest fan of that overly distorted sound design. As soon as crosstown traffic hits, it feels like it gets sort of better, but then Vodoo Chile comes up and I feel another deep sigh coming. I think I might just not be getting that "typical" Hendrix sound/style. It just might not be my cup of tea tbf. Not proud to admit it, but I didn't even get through the whole album.

не для мене хз, застаріло, гітара, казна шо

Sound like a gay dude tryna sing

Das langweiligste Album, das ich hier bisher hören musste. Ganz schrecklich.

no

I had to skip Voodoo Chile and 1983! Didn’t listen to Voodoo Chile (Slight Return). I didn’t mind it as much as I thought I would, but not my favorite. Didn’t add any songs to my liked. 1/5 ⭐️

Too much drum.. and too slow for me. Not my favorite..

I appreciate how he experimented with his music in such a creative way but I personally get the itch from this… 🥴

I feel bad, but Jimi Hendrix is just not my thing ... It always feels like they should have rehearsed together more. It's like 6 people playing their own thing and not worrying about what anyone else is playing ...

its not good to my ears 😭

Long songs not good.

Det handlar inte bara om vilka toner som spelas. Lika viktigt är vilka toner som inte spelas. Här finns inga tomrum, ingen chans för musiken att andas. Följdaktligen låter det dött. Det låter som ett kompband som jammar i studion i väntan på artisten. Att eländet breder ut sig över 4 lp-sidor hjälper inte till. Barmhärtigt att flera låtar tonas ut (vissa till och med mitt i versen). Mer obegripligt är det andra låtar tillåts breda ut sig över 14 minuter. Låter som en bootleg med outtakes snare än ett album.

The first track reminded me of the sounds my mom and dad were making while cooking spaghetti noodles and talking when I was tripping balls on mushrooms. That track gets a 5 for the intense feeling of deja vu it produced. The rest of the album is a confused cacophony of great genres who’s parts far exceed the whole.

Another album where I have heard one song and the rest of them doesn't even have close to the same amount of listens combined. While there isn't anything wrong with the other songs most of them are very experimental and from a time which I am not. These things combined gives this album a low score for me. Maybe hearing them in another context would change that but I can't think of when that would be other than in the 60s.

First "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx..." and now this... I am being properly bent over by the 1001albumsgenerator when it comes to hour+ albums. FUCK. Alright guys, I'm. I give up. I don't know when I'll review again. I really need to catch up on my 32 album backlog. I really wanted to exist in the present with the 1001albumsgenerator community. I've wanted it so fucking bad. *dog whimper* I just can't do it. I can't TAKE this shit no more, man. All I wanted to do was like I was fucking music-deprived I wanted to fucking put on some music have a good time have a good listen. I hate my life. I was curious to give this one a listen. I've heard good things about Jimi Hendrix, though I don't think I've heard a single song of his in my life despite being a big enthusiast of rock music. I'll chalk it up to him having a shockingly small discography for an artist of his stature and belonging to a decade of music that I don't really care for. I have to admit that I am getting off on the wrong foot with Jimi. I can only think of one hour-long album that I have viewed favourably in the past. It's already impossibly hard to make a single good song as is. The odds of compiling multiple good songs into a cohesive, collective body of music is infinitesimally small and the odds of those good songs making it onto a good hour-long album is pretty much never going to happen. I value brevity, which is what I'm trying to get at in the most unconcise possible fashion. I have been listening to this man for 57 minutes now and I don't really have a feel for his musical style or how he earns the "greatest guitarist of all time moniker". It all just blends together for me between all of the instrumentals that start out cool, intensify, then peel back in order to allow for Jimi's vocals to butt in. His compositions are very reminiscent of 50s/60s jazz, which is something I can understand the broad appeal of, but does not appeal to me as a general manager of disliking jazz music. The guitar performances are very confident, though they're far too subdued for my liking Because this album is so fockinggg long, I have taken to the lab in order to quantify the objective, perfect duration for an album across 14 releases that I hold up as favourites. The longest album on my list was an hour and 14 minutes, whereas the shortest was 33 minutes. The objective, scientifically perfect runtime for an album is 48 minutes and 57 seconds. Not far off from the hour mark, but it matters because it just does... Okay? I didn't notice until the last three tracks that I had been listening to this album entirely though my left ear - my other earbud died on me. Whoops. Uh, I'm not listening to this one again. Sozzo, Jimi. I will make sure my earbuds are fully charged and geared for music consumption when the next album rolls around. Those last three songs were a lot more engaging than the ones I listened to in left-ear mode.

Not for me. 1/5

Im not a huge Hendrix fan, and this album illustrates why. Although his guitar skills cannot be questioned, his composition can. Many of these tracks are compilations of wild, and unattached riffs. While many on their own are great, these tracks do not carry a melody. Sounds like random riffs strung together.

I actually HATE this

not bad don't really understand lyrics dosent really hyped me up just boring don't feel the beat 1 star cant really say nothing about it.

Do you like boring songs? This is it. In my opinion this is the most boring album I've heard on this website. One reason I think it is boring is because his voice is sooooooooooooo slow. Another reason is because the instruments just make my tired. So that is why you should not listen to this album.

I really don't like this album. It's just not good. I feel like it's too all over the place. I can't understand what he's saying, and I don't like his music. His voice is too whiny I feel like. I just don't like it. I recommend that you don't listen to this album.

It starts less psychedelic than Axis: Bold as Love. This one is not for me at all. .8/5

I don't recall enjoying this when I had to listen to it for the Rolling Stone top 100 and I didn't enjoy it this time around.

Not my kinda stuff

Boring

My husband loves this album. I'm not a Jimi Hendrix fan so I'm rating it lower. My nerves don't like the kind of electric guitar Jimi plays but I understand that he's very good on the guitar.

I just never liked Jimi.

Just not my thing. It was like nails on a chalkboard. I never liked his music, but never thought that I gave it a chance. This time I did and regret the hour out of my life. Yes, he's a great guitar player, but as for the completeness of a music offering, I just got nothing.

Sooo much electric guitar, lol! Not really my style

I don t know

While I appreciate the incredible skill and craftsmanship, it just unfortunately isn't for me. While I didn't enjoy any of it, I can absolutely understand and respect the talent and musicianship.

That was a slog to get through

Yuck!

This album was like torture. Me and Jimi have very different opinions on whether or not directional sounds should be in music.

Please, please make it stop.

Ik weet dat het heiligschennis is, maar te veel eindeloze gitaarrifs.

Quälend lang, zugemüllt mit überwiegend unterdurchschnittlich gebauten Songs mit zu seltenen Psych-Auswüchsen über denen Jimi seine erklecklichen Gniedel Salven wichst. Ew! Also I don’t want you to „make love to me in my sleep“. Ew!!!

this mf sounds like the suction thing at the dentist oh wow okay that was a harsh change up i dont know whats happening i know im only halfway through the first song but so far its a no from me ok this one sounds more promising kazoo??? idk this ones more groovy but im still not feeling it i feel like i'd get cancelled for all of this funky guitar i just cant see myself sitting down and being like "you know what i want to listen to? weird disjointed guitar with no song structure" nvm this bass and drums came in and kind of banged for a minute im not against this one i can see the appeal here ig i just feel like none of the members are clicking with eachother like i know they are but i dont hear it like that maybe im just dumb but thats my professional opinion. how long is this fucking song oh i think its ending now nvm solo time oh he kind of shredding tho wheres the emotion tho WHAT THE FUCK THIS SONG IS 15 MINUTES LONG WHY???????? IM BORED ALREADY AND THERES STILL NINE MORE MINUTES mfrn: :| drums i just know im gonna be a statistical outlier when i give this album a bad rating I THOUGHT IT WAS ENDING BUT THERES STILL FIVE MINUTES LEFT clapping again this is like in hs band when ppl would clap btwn movements oh its back to the first section i think idk i cant remember mmmm resolution oh he shredding again ok pop off this has GOT to be the end this is like a poorly planned fireworks display it ended ah silence ok lets try again fresh start beatles vocals listening to this is a chore this instrumental break is nice that guitar tone is gorgeous tho same with the bass its so ~smooth~ oh what the fuck is this how many songs are left i hate this im impartial im on reddit rn this is bluesy im not against it yet maybe i need to change my attitude some nice overdrive the man can fucking shred this is the best song so far (come on) fuck he can solo these drums sound weird ok some pick scraping this is bad im skipping to all along the watchtower bc apparently its good its not i did not enjoy this experience

Wish I could like it but I HATED it

Pure shite!
