Interesting version - quite different and unexpected. Not so guitar heavy, more laid back. Nicely done - this is very different. Great stuff.

Nicely done. Great personality on the vocal, and I love those sweet, pushed-back tones on the guitar parts.

Thank you for listening, gentlemen.
James suggested this tune so all the good parts are his fault and all the squeaky voices are mine.
As usual, if I am caught and convicted, all musicians on earth will disavow any knowledge of my existence.

"Crosstown Traffic" I'm singing along Gene! I wore my 4-track tape and player out in my car on this song back in the day. Nice work SD and your vocal effect rocks!

Thank you, Farrell.
I got to see Jimi Hendrix live many moons ago. It was truly an experience.
A great performance. He also played a number of covers from other artists he liked, especially Eric Clapton and Bob Dylan.
I should have recorded this one a long time ago. Always liked it.

Thanks, Bobtail.
Mrs Demon thought this tune was too "heavy" on the guitars. I tried, and failed, to convince her I don't do heavy metal. She thinks I should play more easy listening styles of music.
Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett couldn't play guitar any better than a pig can dance.
I'll stick with classic rock.

Thanks, ORH.
There was much more track synching required than was expected.
Probably not a good idea to record tracks when tired. I'm a glutton for punishment.

I'm back for another listen S.D. I like a lot of Jimi's songs no doubt but Crosstown Traffic and Let The Good Times Roll are a couple that always get a crank of the volume knob from me. Great job on this Gene!

I redid the lead vocal track after listening to my first recording. It was too harsh. Better now.
