Notes

This release is almost identical to the following UK release 2310 301 Loose Ends...
However this release has a slight label text variation at 3 O'Clock:- '1973 POLYDOR INT' is printed in one single line of text rather than across two lines.

Remixed at Electric Lady Studios in New York City.

A collection of previously unreleased outtakes and jams

"Turn up the volume in the, eh...ear goggles", I love the banter on "Blue Suede Shoes". Jimi's distinctive sense of humor shows up on that track. Not a bad take, even if Buddy was a bit daft on the direction. "Jam 292" is possibly his most under rated / under celebrated song. Every take is great in my opinion, but the second take that graces "Blues" known as "Jelly 292" is the ultimate; the take on "Loose Ends" is edited; the unedited take appears on "Hear My Music".

Heraly
For me, the short take of Jimi running through the riff of "Electric Ladyland" that closes out the record is alone worth the price of admission.

A NZ version of this exists. Triple flipback cover, non-laminated, red Polydor. German cover

This is, as the title suggests, loose ends is just a few scraps from rehearsals or jam sessions, the exception being "The Stars That Play". "Jam 292" is great but the superior second take of this appears on the Blues collection. Other than that it's just running through stuff in the studio, never meant to be released. Obviously Hendrix still produces some magnificent licks, but this is strictly only for the hardcore Hendrix collectors.

Reemiel
Blue Suede Shoes with the banter is a candid, hilarious treasure.
