Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1971 US original pressing housed in a gatefold jacket. "Rainbow Bridge" is a notable posthumous album by Jimi Hendrix, capturing his dynamic artistry through recordings primarily made between 1969 and 1970. Despite its title, the album is not a direct soundtrack to the "Rainbow Bridge" film but features studio tracks intended for Hendrix's planned fourth studio album, plus live material from his legendary Maui concert. The collection highlights Hendrix’s evolving sound, fusing blues, rock, and experimental elements, and includes standout tracks like “Dolly Dagger,” “Room Full of Mirrors,” and “Hear My Train A Comin’.” Hendrix’s signature guitar work and innovative production are evident throughout, thanks to collaborations with long-term bandmates Mitch Mitchell and Billy Cox, as well as guest musicians. For vinyl enthusiasts, "Rainbow Bridge" offers an authentic listening experience, presenting rare and transitional Hendrix compositions, bridging the gap between his established hits and the musical directions he was exploring before his untimely death. This album is an essential artifact for anyone seeking deeper appreciation of Hendrix’s enduring genius.
