West Coast Seattle Boy offers a comprehensively in-depth look at Jimi Hendrix’s evolution as an artist. You’re able to hear his hot but simple early leads on The Isley Brothers’ righteous soul track “Testify, Pts. 1 & 2”. A live cut of the now-classic “The Wind Cries Mary” shows the development of his signature sound. The wicked and woolly six-string wizardry of “Hound Dog Blues” shows his skill in the studio, and the anthology’s sweet, intimate ending is “Suddenly November Morning”—a home demo.
