This budget release is among the many posthumous Jimi Hendrix releases that surfaced in 1972. In the Beginning is a good title for the record, which offers some early, lesser known material that Hendrix did in June 1966 before he formed the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Hendrix isn't the leader on this release's six selections. He is heard as sideman for saxophonist and vocalist Lonnie Youngblood. Although Youngblood is the leader, Hendrix is featured prominently on electric guitar.
CAUTION: The New Zealand release titled Free Spirit uses the exact same cover image and title. However, this and the NZ release contain completely different tracks and recordings.
