Jimi Hendrix (Soundtrack from the Film "Jimi Hendrix") is the soundtrack to the Jimi Hendrix (Film) released by Reprise Records in July 1973. The soundtrack was a double-album containing all of the full length live performances from the film and some clips from interviews (though not necessarily from the film). Since there was no new material in this album, many fans passed on buying it. The album peaked at 89 on the Billboard album chart. This generated concern at Reprise Records that repackaging old material would no longer satisfy the fans of Jimi Hendrix.

[edit] Jimi Hendrix (Film)
This documentary was made in 1973 by Joe Boyd, John Head and Gary Weis for Warner Brothers. The film contains concert footage from 1967 to 1970. The film also includes interviews with Hendrix' contemporaries, family and friends. The film was considered an excellent example of a Rockumentary when it was released. The estate of Jimi Hendrix authorized the 1973 film to be re-released on video and DVD in 1999.
