but when I wrote a Winbush paper several years ago I listened to the first two Winbush-produced albums and they're good!

The Isley Brothers & Jimi Hendrix:In the Beginning . . . [T-Neck, 1971]Cut around 1965, while Hendrix was still part of the Isleys' band, these casual sessions, remixed to push his guitar up with the voices, are far superior to Curtis Knight's Hendrix tapes. Make you wonder what would have happened if they'd been released at the time. Especially on "Move Over Let Me Dance," Hendrix anticipates effects Clapton introduced on "Sunshine of My Love," but in a less inflated context--could have blown some minds in Harlem. Not all of the music is don't-miss great. But it's all historic--and you can dance to it. B+
