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.

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.

'are you experienced' - damn that one had all this greatest hits on one cd that was an actual released as a regular album!
