A string of artists are lined up to appear on a Jimi Hendrix tribute album, which will be released to coincide with the 33rd anniversary of his death later this year.
Prince has recorded a version of 'Red House', which he's calling 'Purple House'. Seal and Jeff Beck have teamed up for a version of 'The Wind Cries Mary', Santana covers 'Spanish Castle Magic', Bootsy Collins and George Clinton collaborate on 'Power Of Soul', Earth, Wind & Fire do 'Voodoo Chile', Chaka Khan and Kid Rock's guitarist Kenny Olson perform 'Little Wing' and Musiq does 'Are You Experienced?'.
The tribute album has been assembled by Hendrix's half-sister Janie Hendrix who told MTV: "Jimi's music is really universal, and we wanted to express that. The songs all have their own feel. It's not just a recreation of Jimi. It is Jimi's music, but woven in is the talent of each individual artist."
