Freak Out Blues features jams mostly with the Band Of Gypsys lineup, though
there are a couple of Electric Ladyland demos, and solo stuff as well. Starting
with an small sound byte by Jimi, explaining what his new album (Axis:Bold As
Love) is all about, it then goes into a solo version of Midnight Lightning that
is similiar to the one on South Saturn Delta. Voodoo Chile, an outtake from
Electric Ladyland, is the version found on the Blues CD; Rainy Day Try Out is an
early version of another Electric Ladyland tune; Red House, another track from
the Blues and the Variations On A Theme CDs, is here in its complete form;
Bleeding Heart is Jimi solo, no vocals, on what sounds like some of the backing
guitar that would end up on the War Heroes track of the same name. After that,
the CD goes into a number of jams featuring the Band Of Gypsys lineup, including
the full (minus Jimi explaining to Buddy how he wants the song to start) Blue
Suede Shoes jam (originally found on Loose Ends, including the spoken comments
by Jimi), and here called Police Blues.
