    It's hard to choose. But I will say:

    1983 - A Merman I Should Turn To Be

    Jimi is going to escape to Atlantis or Neptune in his machine at the end of the world. Great stuff. :)

    I love Red House, probablly one of his most basic/in the vein of blues standard-y, but it's always been one of my favorites. And love VooDoo Child. Been listening to the Monterey Show lately, love the live Like a Rolling Stone cover and Rock Me

    Has anyone checked out any of these releases? www.daggerrecords.com ?

    You would think I would choose one of his bluesy songs, but....

    My favorite is....

    (Let Me Stand Next To Your) Fire

    followed, in a close second place, by...

    Crosstown Traffic

    Freedom

    of the live stuff...
    I love 'Killing Floor' from Monterey. To hit the American stage like that is awesome. and 'Johnny B. Goode' from Berkley.

    Purple Haze

    Manic Depression deserves a mention.

    Long time ago, one of my buddies found an old cassette at a garage sale, white cassette tape with a purple label sticker - Jimi's band when he was 18 or so. All covers, sounded like they were the typical bar/party/wedding band. Hearing young Jimi sing "Hang on Sloopy" is pretty funny.
