Off subject a little but my cousin Mike has Jimi's microphone he used during the recording of "Are You Experienced'
Hendrix Voodoo
I've been amazed for years at what I hear every time I listen to "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)". Does anyone else hear something "other-worldly" when they listen to this? The room actually starts spinning.
Other than Hendrix's incredible virtuosity, what techniques did he use in the studio to create this effect? I actually experience an altered state of consciousnous (drug free) while listening to this!!! I have yet to find any other music that has bombarded the senses in quite the same way.
Especially take notice to the beginning of the song. It sounds like he starts in mono {with your head centered between the music) then goes to stereo with the music running back and forth between both channels. Whatever he did back in 1968, I have yet to hear anything quite as extraordinary.
