Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their premium sound quality and beautifully presented packaging. The sonic quality of Japanese records is regarded as the best in the world. No wonder all the original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab records were pressed in Japan! The covers are printed on better quality heavy stock paper too. Near Mint Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer ~ and therefore more collectable and valuable every year.

Geoff –
The second posthumous LP from Jimi -- and certainly one of the best! The second posthumous LP from Jimi (and certainly one of the best), this album is not really the soundtrack to the movie 'Rainbow Bridge' -- it is WAY better! Some of the strongest studio songs were almost finished before Jimi's death: "Dolly Dagger", "Room Full Of Mirrors" (with Jimi on bass and guitar). The finest playing can be heard on a lesser known track, the sensitive brilliant instrumental "Pali Gap". It is a sweet and subtle with an incredible melody. Also featured are a studio version of "Star Spangled Banner", a wild early Experience number, "Look Over Yonder", an extended magical version of "Hear My Train?" from the legendary Berkeley concerts (May 30,1970), and the lengthy "Hey Babe" -- a stunning and very moving piece to finish the album. 'Rainbow Bridge' was well received, reaching #15 and #16 in the U.S. and the UK respectively.
