I really think that Ommadawn is my favourite of his.

"Give us a minute-and-a-half to tune up, okay?
Like, we only had two reherarsals.
So, we'd like to do nothing but primary rhythm things.
But, i mean, this is the first ray of the new rising sun anyways.
So we might as well start from the earth.
Which is Rhythm."

It has got it's own atmosphere and there's plenty of energy there. I still prefer Tubular Bells though

Hi Bish,
TBH i love the live music of Woodstock but feel disappointed with the recording quality.
This triple album looks nicely pressed and made but the sound is rather digital with compression to the point of some harshness, this set is MCA/Universal MCA3-11987 [USA] Limited Edition 30th Anniversary / Year of Release 1999.
It’s still available new on Amazon so the limited number must be HUGE!
My copies of; Live at Berkeley ~ Monterey ~ Band of Gypsys all have a far superior sonic Q and they’re all MCA/Universal vinyl.
All of my Sony/Legacy vinyl is far better too.
This is the only Hendrix Live at Woodstock vinyl I’ve listened to so don’t know if it’s the recording quality that’s poor and effects the SQ on other versions? ..be a shame if that’s the case but if I were spending my money on this set again I’d re-choose to the Legacy version in hope for something better.

I searched Eil, Amazon, and jpc to find these issues above [most of them sold out now] and there maybe lots of other issues too but just looking at this list I find the 2004 anolog tape transfer issues rather desirable… bet they’re not around brand new for sensible money anymore!
Debs
Good choice, Ronen. I am also a great fan of Gismonti's solo works. Superb musician!
Tony
still hooked on Stravinsky.
Suite No.1 for Small Orchestra
Cream. Wheels of Fire. Originally released 1968, I'm listening to the remastered CD from 1998.
It was so easy............
only a heartbeat away, must be time to book that summer holiday
