Up from the skies (Jimi Hendrix) - 1967 from "Axis bold as love"

One of our first recording together, around 2000... just for fun!
It's a little tribute to a wonderful guitar player and songwriter!!

"Up From the Skies" was recorded on 29 October 1967, the last day of recording for the album, at Olympic Sound Studios in London.[1] Music website allmusic reviewer Matthew Greenwald described the song as "Musically, [...] a breezy, jazz-based stroll, and it's quite different from anything on his debut album."The musical style of the song was noted in popular Hendrix biography Jimi Hendrix: Electric Gypsy as boasting an "easy triplet jazz feel," bringing attention to the "delicate wah-wah and Mitch [Mitchell, The Jimi Hendrix Experience drummer]'s brush-work."
The lyrical content of the song is said to be articulated from the perspective of a visiting alien "concerned about what has happened to [Earth] since the last time he passed through."Greenwald suggests that this motif is adopted to "[address] the older generation and their flaws and judgements against the youth of the 1960s," which Hendrix supposedly does "with a sense of idle curiosity rather than distaste, not unlike an alien visiting the planet Earth for the first time."
