JIMI HENDRIX – Merry Christmas & Happy New Year [Record Store Day Exclusive] (2019)

Requested by one of you, here’s the upcoming Record Store Day Exclusive release of JIMI HENDRIX‘s “Merry Christmas & Happy New Year” picture disc.
As Christmas 1969 beckoned, Jimi, bassist Billy Cox, and drummer Buddy Miles (christened Band Of Gypsys by Hendrix) engaged in extensive rehearsals for their highly anticipated appearances at The Fillmore East in New York. To mark the occasion in his own inimitable fashion, Jimi readied this special medley of holiday favorites to celebrate both Christmas and the dawning of a new decade, titled “Merry Christmas & Happy New Year”.

This medley of “Little Drummer Boy,” “Silent Night” and “Auld Lang Syne,” along with “Three Little Bears,” a playful Electric Ladyland outtake from 1968, is now available on picture disc, featuring album artwork on one side and a photo of Jimi dressed as Santa Claus on the other.
On the flip side of this audiophile vinyl there’s an extended version of “Little Drummer Boy…”.
Collector’s stuff for the upcoming holidays.
