Jimi Hendrix : Rainbow Bridge [Original Motion Picture Soundtrack]
Rainbow Bridge
is a compilation album by
American rock musician
Jimi Hendrix
It was
the second
posthumous album
release by his
official record company
and is mostly composed of
recordings Hendrix made in
1969 and 1970
after the breakup of
The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
Despite the cover photo and subtitle
Original Motion Picture Sound Track,
it does not contain any songs
recorded during his
concert appearance
for the 1971 film
Rainbow Bridge.
Continuing in the vein of
The Cry of Love
the first official posthumous
Hendrix album,
Rainbow Bridge
explores new guitar
styles and textures.
All the songs,
except for a
solo studio version of
"The Star Spangled Banner",
are written by
Hendrix and mostly
performed with
Mitch Mitchell
on drums
and
Billy Cox
on bass.
The songs on
Rainbow Bridge
represent material in
various stages of
development and were
never finalized
or approved for release
by Hendrix.
Four of the songs
on the album,
along with
the ten songs from
The Cry of Love
and three from
War Heroes,
were planned for
Hendrix's follow-up album
to the live
Band of Gypsys,
released in March 1970.
These songs were
later included on
Voodoo Soup
and
First Rays of the New Rising Sun
in 1997,
which were attempts at
completing the
double album
Hendrix was working on
at the time of his death.
