For TRUE STEREO click: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxyOdtljas0&fmt=18 --- Hendrix LYRICS: "If you can just get your mind together Uh-then come on across to me Well hold hands and then well watch the sunrise From the bottom of the sea But first, are you experienced? Uh-have you ever been experienced-uh? Well, I have (well) I know, I know, youll probably scream and cry That your little world wont let you go But who in your measly little world, (-uh) Are you tryin to prove to that youre Made out of gold and-uh, cant be sold So-uh, are you experienced? Have you ever been experienced? (-uh) Well, I have Uh, let me prove it to you, yeah Trumpets and violins I can-uh, hear in the distance I think theyre callin our name Maybe now you cant hear them, But you will, ha-ha, if you just Take hold of my hand Ohhh, but are you experienced? Have you ever been experienced? Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful" ------------------------------- ALBUM/CD: Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix - is a 1993 album recorded by various artists in tribute to Jimi Hendrix and the Experience from many genres of popular music including his classic rock contemporaries Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck, legendary blues man Buddy Guy, classical violinist Nigel Kennedy, alternative pop/rock bands Belly and Spin Doctors, hip hop artists P. M. Dawn, among others. According to the liner notes, the "artists were encouraged to not only record one of their own personal favorites but to also place their stamp on Jimi's songs." Several artists recorded radically different interpretations, particularly, P. M. Dawn, The Cure, Nigel Kennedy and Pat Metheny. Some artists, on the other hand, recorded versions that were rather similar to the originals. ------------------------------- Tanya Donelly named the band "Belly" because she thought the word was "both pretty and ugly". Their EP Slow Dust (1992), made number one on the British indie chart. Soon after, their single, Feed the Tree, made the top 40 in the British chart and their first album, Star (1993), got good reviews from newspapers and rock magazines, and hit number two on the British chart. In the United States, the album was RIAA Certified Gold, largely based on the success of "Feed the Tree," on Modern Rock radio stations and MTV, where the video was featured as part of MTV's Buzz Bin videos and Alternative Nation video show for much of 1993. Two follow-up singles were released, "Gepetto" and "Slow Dog," but neither matched the initial success of "Feed the Tree." Star was consequently nominated for two Grammys. Just after the release of Star, bassist Fred Abong left and was replaced by Gail Greenwood. Greenwood was originally a guitar player in a Boston-area metal band before being recruited to play bass in Belly. She became a main attraction at their shows, her hair wildly flying into her face as she stormed around the stage. The live sound of the band evolved to accommodate her style, with its shows featuring more electric guitar than before and less of the dreamy quality of its 1st album. As a result, the group's next album, King (1995), was more rock and roll-oriented. The album was not a popular success and the band was stuck between mainstream and underground acceptance. King saw its numerous singles fail to sustain any significant airplay on Modern Rock radio. The videos for "Now They'll Sleep" and "Super Connected" received little airplay on MTV outside of limited airings on 120 Minutes. Belly appeared on the April 20, 1995, cover of Rolling Stone magazine.(as seen in this video) In 1995, Belly was one of the support bands for R.E.M. on their world tour. In 1996, Donelly broke up the band; she has since released several solo albums. ------------------------------- I edited in a brief clip from 'Rainy Day, Dream Away' and some 'space radio tuner' clip to add some intro-effects... ;-) For more music from Tanya, visit my YouTube friend, berdigendae : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJYh5sOaNwk This is my tribute to Jimi and Tanya, and mermaids or mermen stuck onto rock ...
