Jimi Hendrix : Loose Ends

Loose Ends

 is a

 posthumous compilation

 album by 

American guitarist

 Jimi Hendrix 

released in February 1974 

in the United Kingdom.

 It was the fourth 

and last 

Hendrix studio album 

released posthumously

 by manager Michael Jeffery. 

The album features a 

collection of 

outtakes and jams, 

with the exception of

 "The Stars That Play with

 Laughing Sam's Dice"

 which is the sole 

authorized track

 by Hendrix, 

in a new stereo mix

 by Eddie Kramer.

The album was

 engineered, 

mixed 

and compiled by

 John Jansen, 

who is listed on the

 record's sleeve as

 "Alex Trevor" 

because he did not

 wish his name to

 be on the LP's credits.

Additional 

engineering was

 provided by

 Eddie Kramer,

 Dave Palmer, 

Kim King, 

Gary Kellgren,

 Jack Adams, 

Tom Flye 

and 

Jim Robinson.

Reprise Records

 (Jimi Hendrix' label at the time),

 declined to issue this album

 in the United States

 and 

Canada

 as they considered

 the material below standard. 

The UK, French 

and 

Japanese pressings

 all had different covers.

This release was also

 repackaged in 1983 

under the name 

The Jimi Hendrix Album 

on LP and cassette
