No kidding. Eddie himself is one monster of epic proportions.

Fiachra KZfaq is great isn't it?

The ghetto fighters?

CorbCorbin ...I love watching him mix levels in documentaries, he's a Master

me too

Excellent analogy! I reckon Eddie and Jimi were better friends than the Beatles were with George Martin, though.

@@user-pt4ix4kd9l Earth Blues, Baby!

It is! Very few people know how good that record was: a treasure trove...

just on Rainbow Bridge alone! lol

What happened? The word "classic rock" was invented. And now every body just wants to sound like "the good o'l days" and are so busy remembering the past they forgot about both today and the future. One forgets that music like this was NOT "classic" back then. That stuff was the CUTTING EDGE at the time. People need to stop pointing their wrinkly old fingers at pop, hip hop or EDM because they have nothing to do with it. Pop has been around for just as long as rock and metal has. It's all just poorly made excuses and scapegoats for the fact that rock stopped pushing itself forward, started chasing its tail, and got left behind.

Reuben Solly lmaoo. Edm isnt music.

And btw was that really the first thing that popped into your head after you read my comment? You just insult a genre of music that you don't like then leave? A typical, childish, copy-and-paste response.

Video Killed The Radio Star. That's what happened to rock and roll. Unreal what a prophetic statement that was.

DuckTalesWooHoo1987 They should have simply made the adjustment and continued on.

thanks, i was trying to work out the accent

He used sleigh bells in alot of his other songs, mainly recorded in late 69 and 70, 1967 hendrix is so different to 1970 hendrix, he was a genius

He also played a mean kazoo!

A custom Datamix console

😆

It was an outtake of the 1973 movie Jimi Hendrix.

I think Eddie is South African

no , he has said in interviews he immigrated from England

Eddie Kramer is the man.

He is from South Africa,I believe.

I know right? In a much later interview, the accent is stronger.

Daniel Johnson Haha KZfaq know-it-all's suck, don't they?

So you are saying they played the song sharp in the studio? In this clip the key is in around B. The song is in Bflat, as evidenced by footage and audio recordings of him playing it in Maui (his hands are in the B position, tuned down a half step as usual). This was shot and recorded for the 1973 Hendrix documentary. The original tapes are fine, and Eddie Kramer is not at fault. The recorded audio from when Eddie was filmed is playing too fast. Also, just because you have the original recordings doesn't mean that you will be playing in the right pitch if you are playing analogue tape. The speed of the tape playback affects pitch. All that the recording consists of is patterns on magnetic film. What I am saying is that when they filmed the scene they didn't do the audio exactly right. Please. Think before you reply.

We do know. Watch the film of Hendrix in Maui. He plays it in Bflat, and it sounds exactly like the recording as mastered on the Cry of Love. Are you saying that they screwed up the tape speed on The Cry of Love and every compilation album which has this song? Come on, man.

Bsharp may be an advice :-)

What?

Because you have dicks in your ears

Jimmy Page engineered almost everything and planned out all the production on his own, using his experience as a studio musician before Led Zeppelin. He had been at the controls before Hendrix got to them. Page must have been assisting with production, or producing uncredited, regularly for at least 6 to 9 months before Hendrix made his first single in 1966, Hey Joe. As a young man, working persistently at a skill makes you learn an extreme amount in a very short time, all the basic skills and requirements of the trade were permanently taught and learnt to Jimmy Page and that's why he had a somewhat better sound than Jimi's unreleased stuff. He simply was high experienced and his own notes, not just mentally, written down. As an example he'd instruct the engineers to place microphones 20 feet away from the instruments for a natural sound, he'd also do all these things himself. Things like that help to make a wall of sound with minimal instrumentation. Jimi Hendrix eventually built up his instrumentation to form his own wall of sound. Generally, Hendrix' more basic songs had more reverb/room than tracks like Dolly Dagger and Straight Ahead (Pass It On). If reverb is added then noise/distortion becomes a by-product of the production, there'd be extra sounds because of the addition of reverb. Jimmy Page was able to have a big sound because most of Led Zeppelin's songs until Houses of the Holy had basic/live band instrumentation tracking, combined with Page's mastered studio skills. Having said that, Jimi Hendrix learnt all those principles and philosophies of sound that Jimmy Page learnt, just executed them all differently since he possibly spent more time in the studio between 66 and 70 than Page.

Listen again, pal

And you were never alive
