The Greatest Guitarist of All Time (as voted by Rolling Stone and most of the music world) has impressed us once again with ‘Somewhere’, which can be viewed below. ‘Somewhere’ is a formerly unreleased track from his upcoming and highly anticipated album People, Hell and Angels which is due out on March 5, 2013. From the grave, 12 unreleased tracks from his song bank are being remastered and released with the help of his former producer Eddie Kramer.
The track was created as part of Hendrix’s planned Electric Ladyland follow-up titled First Rays of the New Rising Sun, which would have enough material to release as a double-album. The song features Buddy Miles on drums and Stephen Stills on bass and has a more complex sound and even stronger experimental influence, which can only leave us to believe that Hendrix was on the move in a new direction. A clip of the song was premiered in November. Flooded with psychedelic jams, piercing solos and wailing guitar riffs, ‘Somwhere’ is a must listen.
