Comments and Reviews


Deltics 7th Sep 2019		Track Records puppet back cover added.



getalife 14th Jan 2018		Stand corrected Hawkmarty, must have seen something like “Jimi could play a guitar strung for right-handers but only when that was all that was around,” and thought it was how he played all the time. Is it true because he had to change the strings around on a right handed guitar it gave a slightly different sound because of the length of the strings to a purpose made left handed guitar. Bass being the shorter string on right handed guitar (not all guitars, only those adjusted from the top)



Hawkmarty SUBS 14th Jan 2018		Not true Getalife. His guitar was strung with the bass string at the top. Because his Strat was a right-handed model when Jimi inverted it the whammy bar pivot was at the top and had the most effect on the bass strings which is why his dive-bomb effects were so epic. Jimi could play a guitar strung for right-handers but only when that was all that was around.



getalife 29th Dec 2017		@albert, believe he also played guitar upside down, bass string at bottom.



PhilMH 29th Dec 2017		Correction - there are water buffalo on the Isle of Wight, at Grange Farm. (You learn something new every day).



PhilMH 29th Dec 2017		Isle Of Wight! (Don't think water buffalo are found there).



Break-In Master 29th Dec 2017		What's IOW, International Order of Waterbuffalo?



albert 19th Aug 2016		The Jimi puppet seems to be an imposter, Jimi was left handed.



Hawkmarty SUBS 27th Mar 2016		My copy (in the IOW sleeve) has Side 1 and Side 2 on the labels - not Side A like the image here.



deepinder cheema 15th Apr 2015		Peter Sanders who was responsible for both covers may have included John Peel because he was sharing accomodation with John Peel. Beautiful Peter as he was known if you read Clive Selwoods book ' all the right moves'.



Thin Yoghurt 17th Aug 2014		Has "Band of Gypsys" on cover, but "Band of Gipsies" on labels.



TopPopper 19th Oct 2013		It's just people speculating. Interesting to see more puppets though.



carryonsidney 19th Oct 2013		this might help, by the way the likenesses are very good up close - Peel, Jones + Dylan http://rateyourmusic.com/board_message/message_id_is_3411085



TopPopper 19th Oct 2013		Doesn't look much like Brian Jones. I think the two either side of Jimi are The Experience (see here) Don't know who "John Peel" is though.



YankeeDisc SUBS ● 19th Oct 2013		.....for what it's worth, I remember this cover, as a former girlfriend, who was into classic soul, motown, stax and the like had this album, with that sleeve, upon release. I listened to it with her, and I wasn't really impressed by the album then, and thought nothing of the puppets, other than one of them being 'Hendrix'. Looking at the sleeve now, it is apparent that one of the puppets represents Brian Jones, another is Bob Dylan, with afro, and a third is John Peel. I am not sure about the inclusion of 'John Peel', as he was still a radio DJ, whilst all the others were extremely famous rock musicians, I found this on the web, decide for yourselves.



carryonsidney 25th Sep 2013		SORRY ! just noticed the Puppet sleeve is Australian?!



carryonsidney 25th Sep 2013		Apologies for poor photos but 7874 is actually the right way around and matches the guitar shot. I have labeled them wrongly the guitar is the Front sleeve, Hendrix head is back sleeve, normal right hand side opening, I don't know if KAB's is opening the same way? I will upload the interior shots later tonight hopefully.



lorangrecords SUBS 25th Sep 2013		Sorry. 7874 it was.



lorangrecords SUBS 25th Sep 2013		Hid the 7174 pic. To me it seemed to be just turned 90 degrees, and looking as one of the others.



lorangrecords SUBS 25th Sep 2013		Hope this is OK
