Hendrix jammed with Miles Davis and I don't know what ever became of that. From our track record of Hendrix releases in the last 3 decades, you would think that someone has a tape of this. There are lots of recordings from the Alan Douglas days that haven't been re-released by the estate. They are mostly deleted and expensive.
I think Hendrix was scheduled to jam with Miles but it was cancelled due to Miles demanding too much money. If it had happened I 'm sure Alan Douglas would have put it on Nine to the Universe which was Jimi's 'Jazz' album.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Well I'm pretty skeptical, but if there actually is fresh stuff out there, bring it on.
 
 
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

This looks like a good one, thanks to Expeience Hendrix, Jimi's posthumous 'career' is back on track. All the right people are involved, Kramer, Cox etc and no sign of Alan Douglas.

For those who are wondering where the material keeps coming from, Hendrix lead lengthy recording sessions at various studios almost every night for most of his adult life, there is still tons of material out there.

I was slightly disappointed that most of the 'new' material was blues, I'd love to hear some more of his fusion work with McLaughlin, Larry Young etc, but if Experience Hendrix can bring in more money for his family and friends ... good!

It could have been legal problems, family claiming ownership of the demos, the studio, etc slowing down the release. I wouldn't know if it could delay something for so long, but at least fans will have something to look forward too.

...any material from bygone heros is cool as long as they are not rehashed compilations trying to rake in more bucks....Beatles and Floyd spring to mind

As Mr. McDermott says, Jimi just left this whole, completed stuff. Apparently nobody noticed it (while scavenging for studio scraps to record bass/drums over in order to obtain Hendrix music).

Jimi Hendrix fans, rejoice: An album of previously unreleased studio recordings by the guitar virtuoso will be released in March. Valleys of Neptune, which arrives on March 9, includes recordings with the original Jimi Hendrix Experience lineup, primarily from 1969 sessions. The album’s title track will be released as a single on February 2, beginning a retrospective of Hendrix’s work that commemorates the 40th anniversary of his death on September 18, 1970.

Please read the article. What do you think?
