Yeah I know I probably could have included First Rays Of The New Sun but I wanted to stick with the main 3.

I'm gonna go with Axis, barely edges out the other 2 IMO. All perfect 5/5 albums.

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.

Electric Ladyland.  I like it becuase it's more diverse, I love that he sang "Have You Ever Been" or whatever it's called.  Also, Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) is pretty amazing because apparently it was just an impromptu jam he did in the studio for a film crew.  Apparently he had finished the album but they needed to record him playing something, so he just started riffing off of "Voodoo Child" the slow version earlier on the album... and came up with "Voodoo Chile" right there in the studio.  Lots of magic around that album.

I agree with Smile. Electric Ladyland is my favorite out of those 3 listed. Just on a side note, have any of you ever heard the 8-track tape NINE TO THE UNIVERSE? It is probably one of the most amazing pieces of music I've ever heard. The sounds on that tape are unbelievable. Simply remarkable.
Picking up the ball from inside his own half, the pint-sized Argentine skipped past challenge after challenge. Always appearing to be on the point of tumbling, he was miraculously able to retain his balance before rounding Peter Shilton and slotting the ball home for a goal manufactured in heaven.
