Jimi Hendrix Previously Unreleased Cover Of Muddy Waters' "Mannish Boy"

The latest posthumous release by Jimi Hendrix will be available in March, but you can hear the first track from Both Sides of the Sky now. The song also happens to be the lead track on the upcoming album, a cover of the Muddy Waters blues classic "Mannish Boy." The material on Both Sides of the Sky comes from January 1968 through February 1970, with focus on the period when Hendrix was working with bassist Billy Cox and drummer Buddy Miles in the trio that became Band of Gypsys. "Mannish Boy" was recorded during their first session on April 22, 1969, at the Record Plant in New York. (ultimateclassicrock)
