Notes
Electric Ladyland is the third and final studio album by the Jimi Hendrix Experience and the final studio album released before Hendrix's death in 1970. A double album, it was the only record from the Experience produced by Hendrix. The band's most commercially successful release and their only number one album, it was released by Reprise Records in the United States on October 16, 1968, and by Track Records in the UK nine days later. By mid-November, it had reached number one on the US charts, spending two weeks there. In the UK it peaked at number six, where it spent 12 weeks on the chart.
Electric Ladyland includes a cover of Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower", which became the Experience's best-selling single, reaching number six in the UK and 20 in the US. Although the album confounded critics in 1968, it has since been viewed as Hendrix's best work and one of the greatest rock records of all time. Electric Ladyland has been featured on many greatest-album lists, including Q's 2003 list of the 100 greatest albums and Rolling Stone's 2020 list of the 500 greatest albums of all time, on which it was ranked 53rd.
UK sleeve 'day of release' copies include:
- the White Text version = regular: example 1, example 2
- the Blue Text version and/or Ghost Version = overprinting of a rejected tracklist

This version looks like it does not have '180 Gram Audiophile LP Pressing' on the hype sticker. Can anyone confirm whether or not it actually is 180g?
Edit: opened up my copy - sticker does not say 180g but the record definitely is. Sounds spectacular! - Has anyone else had a problem with the live set? I'm on my third copy from Amazon and they all kind of slide from the end of Foxey Lady into Fire. And the end of Purple Haze slides into the dead wax. It's not my turntable or cartridge - everything else plays just fine.

According to reviews on Amazon Japan, where this CD is readily available, this pressing is _not_ a Russian fake, as claimed here. One purchaser recounts the following anecdote: "The following is a story I heard from a friend who works for an advertising agency.
Universal (in Japan) planned a nude cover paper jacket" and produced it. However, "EXPERIENCE HENDRIX LLC (Jimi's father / the rights holding company that established it)" stopped this, and the paper jacket CD floated in the air". Assuming that this story is true, Discogs should allow the sale of the item here.- OldRusty (below) is exactly right. Some tracks are mind blowing. Crosstown Traffic on my rig sounds amazing! The harmonies are so great on this! Voodoo Chile sounds amazing too. I can hear the studio.
Other tracks sound a bit feeble. All in all a steal at $20. - I wish all my records could sound this good. Dead quiet, lush instrumentation and quality packaging. Glad to own such a great copy of a classic.
