Beautiful People: If 60's Were 90's/ Various - Beautiful People: If 60's Were 90's / Various (Ltd Box, 3CD+DVD, Signed & Numbered Certificate)

Deluxe three CDs + DVD set. Commissioned by legendary record producer and former creative head of the Jimi Hendrix Estate Alan Douglas in 1990, the cleverly titled If 60's Were 90's by the band Beautiful People, is a totally unique and seminal record. Consisting of over fifty guitar riffs, vocal cut-outs, out-take lead breaks, and word raps from guitar god Jimi Hendrix, If '60s Were 90's also features spoken steals from Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones, Experience drummer Mitch Mitchell, and 60's blues guitarist Mike Bloomfield. The album was complete in July 1992 with live drums recorded by Robin Goodridge (later of BUSH fame) and first released in 1993 on Castle Communications Essential label with remixes by Killing Joke bassist and Legendary producer YOUTH (Pink Floyd, Verve, U2.) The album was generally well-received even if the idea of it did freak out some purists, but it proved to be a grower. In 94 Beautiful People toured Europe supporting HAWKWIND, then on the personal request of Noel Gallagher toured the UK on the OASIS "Definitely Maybe" tour. This box set contains the fully remastered album, on one CD, a second disc of remixes from various artist, a 3rd disc of remixes by producer Youth, a DVD, paper parts & a signed and numbered certificate.
