Jimi Hendrix's 'Band of Gypsys' was released on March 25, 1970, but by then the group had already broken u. He ran late on an album he owed his current label Warner Bros. Despite this chaos, in September Hendrix formed a new group, comprised of bassist Billy Cox (who’d performed with him at Woodstock) and drummer Buddy Miles (who’d he’d met during their early 60s chitlin’ circuit days). While tape rolled, the Band of Gypsys would play two shows on New Year’s Eve and two more on New Year’s Day. The resulting album, released on March 25, 1970, featured eight tracks, and offered a turn away from the psychedelic song craft that had characterized Are You Experienced? and Electric Ladyland.
