I can’t stand that Kronos recording. I’m actually not a fan of much of what they do. Very fine musicians to be sure, but their sound always bugged me.Dude, just...no. Make it stop!
And there’s this. I liked it for about a week, and then listened to some actual Hendrix records, and got my mind right again.
I don’t want to hear Beethoven played by a rock band, and the last thing on Earth I want to hear is a big jazz band doing Hendrix.
As for those Monday night Gil Evans shows at Sweet Basil, some of the more formative musical experiences of my teen age years -whether they were playing Hendrix, or Mingus, or Monk, or...
Respectfully, the comparison of Gil’s band doing Hendrix, to that Kronos performance is kind of flimsy
