05/22/2006 | There were several different songs with similar titles during the period- the famous "Ballad of Easy Rider" that The Byrds played on the soundtrack for the movie of the same name, an Electric Flag number, a minor hit by Iron Butterfly in 1970. Hendrix's song was originally released on the posthumous "Cry of Love" album in early '71, that and other songs of his last stage have been repackaged under different titles ever since. The song is a soul meets hard rock cut that also features Traffic's Steve Winwood and Chris Wood. Arthur Lee of the act Love covered this around 1972, it can be found on the cd reissue of his fine solo album "Vindicator."
