From Experience Hendrix Official Website:

The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live In Cologne, the twelfth release in the Dagger Records official bootleg series, documents this spirited, January 13, 1969 performance at the Sporthalle in Cologne, Germany.

Hendrix kicked off the proceedings with a scalding “Come On (Let the Good Times Roll)” from Electric Ladyland. This Earl King chestnut had long been a favorite of Jimi’s and here he began with a driving solo introduction before signaling Redding and Mitchell to join. Next followed a blistering version of “Foxey Lady,” a perennial stage favorite.

An abrupt tape cut precedes a memorable rendition of “Red House.” Thankfully the performance is essentially complete lacking only Jimi’s prefacing stage banter, offered as he likely changed guitars before starting. “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” followed next, not yet established as Jimi’s closing number as it would become later in 1969 and remain so throughout his career, but no less muscular.

Jimi then shifted directly into “Fire” and then a thunderous “Spanish Castle Magic.” The Experience were clearly locked in sync, pushing each other throughout all to the delight of their audience. The Experience never backed off, launching next into their first single “Hey Joe.” Jimi had to do some quick tuning on the fly, but he pressed on undaunted, boldly dashing off a lick from the Beatles’ “I Feel Fine” as he barreled through this uptempo rendition. This driving intensity built up after the solo, underscored by Jimi’s rhythm guitar work and Mitchell’s superb drumming before culminating in a rousing finale.

“Sunshine Of Your Love” was offered in tribute to Cream, all to the delight of the audience whose howls of approval can be heard even during Redding’s bass solo. “Star Spangled Banner” and “Purple Haze” capped off a truly memorable night and then the Experience were gone, whisked off to the next city and another unsuspecting audience.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Live In Cologne is like other releases in the Dagger Records series. This album was not drawn from professionally recorded masters but instead an amateur, monophonic audience recording. As a result, the recording is not without various technical flaws and sonic limitations. Nonetheless, this special ‘official bootleg’ stands as a captivating document of this important chapter of Jimi’s legacy.

Unique to this vinyl-only Dagger Records release, is an accompanying redemption card that features a unique access code allowing purchasers to download a free digital copy of the album in MP3 format.

Talk about burying the lede...

Maybe they'll do a cassette-only for their next release. With the 8-track format also available, of course.

Vinyl.... lovely

ENOUGH ALREADY! How the hell many mediocre recordings of the same Jimi set-list can even the most ardent of fans appreciate?

I thought EH was bringing a another 'lost' album (ala Valleys of Neptune) to market this fall.

I sold off my entire Hendrix vinyl collection recently, I am a Hendrix collector who only wants CDs or DVD/BluRay. This is a bloody joke !

Why are they doing this? There is a small group who want vinyl but there must be more who buy CDs

Sounds like it's an audie also? I don't do audies.

Its an AUD for sure.

This is Dagger Records, which is the EH "official bootleg" subsidiary (read: most ardent of fans only need apply).

JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE: LIVE IN COLOGNE--DAGGER RECORDS--2012

Got mine yesterday. An audience recording, but nicely mastered by George Marino (probably one of his last projects). A pretty intense performance by Jimi--he seemed to be in good spirits and up for the play. Guitar, vocals and bass offer some degree of dynamic range. Drums are difficult to hear. So...for hard-core fans only. But that's what I am. Nicely packaged, gatefold 2-LP set. Unseen photos and essay by McDermott in the fold. MP3 download card included. 180 gram vinyl (straight paper inner sleeves). For the price, a nice addition to my Hendrix collection. Just an FYI for those who may be interested.

Sigh. How many decent soundboards are still unreleased? I feel the same way about audies as I do about mp3's; in fact I hate audies more than I hate mp3's!

Thanks for the info, though!

There are plenty of unreleased SBDs of Jimi

Stockholm Jan 1969
Randals Island 1970
Berkeley Set 1 1970
Plenty of Band Of Gypsys from Dec 31-Jan 1 1970

There are many more I just don't have the details

Good thing I have all of those on *imports*.
