New York blues-rock king, Popa Chubby steps forward with his latest album “Electric Chubbyland” : a Homage to the Legend and Spirit of Jimi Hendrix. After head-lining the Jimi Hendrix music festival in Holland in 1998 Popa received many requests from fans to perform an all Hendrix show. So here it is : Popa’s electrifying interpretations of Jimi’s music, with his Power Trio. This triple CD includes about 150 minutes of music with 2 live CDs recorded at an intimate little club in New York, the Corner Stage, on February 10 and 11 2006. The third CD, a bonus, includes all the songs Popa was sorry to not include in the live recording : classics such as Hey Joe, Foxy Lady, Highway Child, Voodoo Chile’, Who Knows, Burning of the Midnight Lamp, Manic Depression and more, done in Popa’s inimitable blues style.

“As a young boy in the 60’s I vaguely remember Jimi Hendrix wafting through the A.M. radio with strains of Purple Haze and Hey Joe. It seemed mystical and frightening to me. I remember the year of 1971 it was summer and I was sitting in the room of my friend’s older brother. He was smoking weed and talking about how Rock had lost it’s big heroes. Jimi, Janis and Jim. He played ‘Electric Ladyland’ and ‘Band of Gypsys’ as we younger boys looked on in awe and silence. It was like a church service. Solemn and holy in a fog of marijuana smoke and acid rock. A few years later I got my first guitar….” Popa Chubby.
