Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix is a 1993 album recorded by various artists in tribute to Jimi Hendrix. The artists were drawn from many genres of popular music. Contributors include his classic rock contemporaries Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck, legendary blues man Buddy Guy, classical violinist Nigel Kennedy, alternative pop/rock bands Belly and Spin Doctors, hip hop artists P. M. Dawn, among others. According to the liner notes, the "artists were encouraged to not only record one of their own personal favorites but to also place their stamp on Jimi's songs." Several artists recorded radically different interpretations, particularly, P. M. Dawn, The Cure, Nigel Kennedy and Pat Metheny. Some artists, on the other hand, recorded versions that were rather similar to the originals.

    I was never all that fond of this album but I kept it around for this cover by "Soundgarden/Pearl Jam" or M.A.C.C. as it's accredited to on the album.

    dachmo: Never heard this, or of M.A.C.C., what album is this off of? Sounds killer! Soundgarden & Pearl Jam make me miss the 90's. My fave era, still in my 20's turned 30...

    My favourite Hendrix song. Not sure about this version but that's because I'm so used to that waltz time in the middle. Buddy Guy is the bomb.
