"I Will Slip Into The Sea"
"The Sea.....eventually" The words have echoed through my ears marking a moment in life when I discovered the most innovative musician of all time. Unlike most devout followers of Jimi I was not introduced to the legend by the infamous riffs of Purple Haze. Instead, I heard a different Hendrix as seen through the eyes of the Beautiful People. I was 8. I am a dedicated student of the stratocaster and have done all i can to work with Jimis Music, But nothing compares to the ingeneous work of the Beautiful People. This is one of the most amazing discs ever put together and is a must have for anyone into Jimi, Guitar, Techno, Sex, Drugs, or Rock N Roll. A must have at any party or a night alone with some hallucinogens. Unfortunatley it has come to my attention that the cd is out of print which is most unfortunate. So, any of you folks out there with cd burners make copies of this cd and spread it freely with love, it is an essential member in any collection. "Get your mind Together"

Uncle Jimmy would've been real proud
I accidentally heard one of the tracks while flipping through the busy San Francisco radio dial. Being a big Hendrix fan, I marveled at how such an awesome piece of art had managed to escape me before. We're talking unmistakable Hendrix signature feel, masterfully interleaved with tasteful, beautifully done modern electronica. Fortunately, the DJ clarified the matter by mentioning it's by Beautiful People. Of course, the CD was already out of print. Bummer, because these guys deserve to make a lot of $$ for their hard work and talent. But due to poor business management, the CD has not been re-printed, depriving millions of potential fans of owning this landmark album. Napster to the rescue (this was early 2001). After several days of searching, I've burned a CD that has since been played hundreds of times. How can you tell a true classic? It still sounds just as fresh, and occupies the prestigious #1 slot in my CD changer. Dare I say that these guys, if they ever got back together, may be worthy of standing on the same pedestal as some of the greatest rockers and DJ's of our time?

am i hearing something different?
I was disappointed with this cd and am not sure what the other reviewers are hearing. There are no questions about why this is out of print, in my opinion. The bits of Jimi's guitar and vocals are the only exciting moments for me. The rest is mixed in such a predictable, unoriginal style that I could have gotten the same result while deaf from a 60's contact high. I found absolutely nothing original about the cd and would recommend passing on this one. The two-star rating is generous. I will trade my used copy back in for some original music from the master of guitar.
