I can only imagine what happened after that photoshoot if Jimi was there.
-------------------- The very nature of experience is ineffable; it transcends cognitive thought and intellectualized analysis. To be without experience is to be without an emotional knowledge of what the experience translates into. The desire for the understanding of what life is made of is the motivation that drives us all. Without it, in fear of the experiences what life can hold is among the greatest contradictions; to live in fear of death while not being alive.

Ah ha. Thank you man. Very nice. You'll be seeing these again 

BTW, i'll get this thread back on track. "Castles Made Of Sand" is a funky funky song. That's one you can really dance to. It's almost got a hip hop feel to it.

I love that song. The solo was actually recorded played back in reverse over the song. That's why it sounds so fucked. If you listen to the "last" notes of the solo, you can hear that it's just Jimi picking softly and increasing the volume. Since it's played back in reverse, it almost sounds like a regular note fading out. I've always wanted to play the song backwards (to hear the solo as it was actually played.) Somebody try it!

I'm listening to it in reverse right now and I ppersonally think it's much more appropriate when played normally (that is backwards.....or the way it is when the song is played from start to finish). Its not a spectacular solo in and of itself (at least not by jimi's standards) but it works sooooo well the way they put it in their reversed.
