Hey yall I was just wonderin what you guys think of Electric Ladyland and/or Jimi's blues songs (red house, hear my train a comin', born under a bad sign, etc.). I need to do an interpretation essay for my LA class and I'd just like some varying input on what you guys think of the two subjects. Any opinions help!

Thanks in advance! 8)

Well, I've had some requests, but I'm going to play anyway.

There are a number of reference works you can consult. You can also refer to the online version of Rolling Stone for standard assessments of his work as well as to the articles on All Music Guide. Be sure to document your sources. But you'll benefit most from this assignment if you rely on your own research and interpretive skills and support your assertions with appropriate examples and illustrations. Good luck with the assignment. By the way, I often use the article on the "Rock Window" (follow the link under popular music studies) on Soundscapes. It provides a good framework for interpretation. Again, don't forget to document the article if you use it.
