Since the Devil and Dk both have given us some Hendrix in days past ~ This Darkness filled Tuesday Morning I give you Mr Noel Redding’s Fat Mattress the S/T LP released in 69′.

This was a Noel Redding’s Post-Hendrix project with Him playing guitar not bass along with the rhythm section of Englebert Humperdinck’s band.  Actually Noel was a Guitar player not a bass Player. He stumbled upon been a member of the “Experience” almost in error;  He went on an audition for Eric Burdon of the Animals.  He was the 1st to join Jimi and was the 1st to leave the band.

This album is nothing at all similar to the Jimi Hendrix Experience.  Its a Dreamy, Folkish, soft-psych LP very differant from the crazy guitar ~ hard blues of “the Experience” we all know and love.

Enjoy the Cuts Please & Thank-You

“All Night Drinker”
