Jimi Hendrix: "Valley of Jams 1969-1970" 3LP

A new Jimi Hendrix compilation, Valley of Jams 1969-1970, will be released by Third Man Records, as part of their Vault series. All tracks have been previously released, so any fan of his work with an above average collection can give it a pass, not wanting to have to shell out the cash for a quarterly vinyl subscription (US / UK/Europe) in order to get this. It is a nice package though: 3 LPs on coloured vinyl in a trifold sleeve, a 7", a patch and a sticker. Tracklist compiled by John McDermott.
