If Hendrix in 1970 wouldn't have died, which kind of music do you think he would play or produce today?

Reissue 2009. Superb pressing with good dynamics. in this new mix guitars and piano are very clear, like a little creek in spring. Hey, it's spring again!
2 previously unreleased bonus tracks are included: A7 "Out in the cold"/B7 "Smackwater Jack" live version.
Concerning my last post: Carole King, Tapestry.
Track B3 "Will you love me tomorrow". The credits for James Taylor notice: Acoustic guitar and Granfalloon.
Anybody able to explain the meaning of the term "Granfalloon" to a German/Swiss/European thinking person???
One of the most fascinating instrumentals: track A4 "In memory of Elizabeth Reed". Latin rhythm intro (inspired by Santana?) driving into a more and more swinging Gibson Les Paul guitar-soloing part. Bravo Dicky Betts!
Elizabeth Reed was a girlfriend of Boz Scaggs. True or not?
Who is "Twiggs"? Notice on back cover.
Once again: great guitar work by Chris Spedding. Jack of all trades.....
picked this up yesterday, plays well.
a track or 2 on this London pressing that I can't recall hearing before :dont-know:
Butterfield Blues Band - Sometimes I Just Feel Like Smilin'
(1971, Elektra) STERLING LH, mastered by Lee Hulko

Notice on back cover: As a child Michael got a Martin guitar from granddaddy Murphey.
This is an empathetic tribute to Martin guitars, Cadillac and Geronimo and Leonard Cohen (credits:"good spirits")
Good english original pressing in fold-cover. Produced by genious Bob Johnston in Nashville and London.
Bought yesterday at "Klang und Kleid" in St. Gallen, Switzerland for 5 Fr.
A fascinating variable characteristic voice. Sometimes sleepy but also powerful.
I have never ever heard of Carol Hall, since i found this wonderful LP yesterday in St. Gallen, at "Klang und Kleid".
Wayne Perkins and Eddie Hinton guitar!
This one is light as a feather and worthy like a pearl.
Lost and forgotten, but now i'm glad that i've found it.
Victoria is Victoria Domagalski. She is a very beautiful woman with a wonderful voice as we may see on cover photo. And she was a fantastic cook (notice on inner fold cover by Richard Brautigan).
She made only 2 albums and then she was lost but not found anymore. Anybody knows more about this singer?
I found this one yesterday in "Klang und Kleid" record store, St. Gallen.
I especially bought this one because of the credits to Herbie Hancock who played piano.
Ronnie Montrose guitars! What a rare combination.....
The lusty billowing sound of Arthur Blythe's alto saxophone was a welcome, authoritative contribution to the music of the '70s. (Notice on back cover by Gary Giddins).
Listen to track A1 "Jitterbug Waltz".
Lebensfreude!
Geoff Whitehorn great guitar work.
No Fisher, no Trower.
Something magic's being gone......
Ian Matthews - Tigers Will Survive
(1971, Vertigo) G.K. in the deadwax, mastered by Gilbert Kong

Mercury distributed this Vertigo label LP and includes a Mercury inner sleeve and mastering by Gilbert Kong.
This copy has an ugly cut-out hole at the bottom of the left side of front cover. But the dynamics are very very superb.
What kind of people did punch holes into beautiful LP covers?
This one sounds like a fresh creek in spring.
Only hits, no fillers, or.... or? Is "Da doo Ron Ron" the filler?
One for the desert island......
This one is interesting music history potpourri. Patti Smith reads the poem "The new creatures" by Jim Morrison B1 "I wake up screaming". Joe Walsh guitar on title track.
Listen to track B3 "Bicentennial Blues": Santana meet The Doors!
Great fun in the studio: orgasmic sounds in track B4 "Perfumed garden":...now it's out of control.....
