A lost recording: the Welsh National anthem, by Jimi Hendrix

31 12 2006

This is an interesting curiosity – according to the Western Mail, an old demo tape from the sixties, forgotten for decades at the bottom of a tea chest stored in a London recording studio, may feature Jimi Hendrix playing the Welsh National Anthem. Cool!

Listen to the track here (it’s an embedded .swf file, and will autoplay once the page has loaded).

Hmm…I’ve heard some of Hendrix’s music and I’m no expert, but it sounds like him to me.

It is a pretty cool story. I’ve waited until today to finally have the time to listen. I listen to a fair amount of Jimi but again, I’d like to hear it on something other than the single speaker on my powerbook.
