If you listen to that album today, it's makes sense. Forty years ago, they would've tested your sanity, and they did. Yet it's not insane music.
That's going too far, sorry. First, Jimi Hendrix was dead in "late 1970" (September) and his mastery of the wah wah pedal is unbeatable. Greeny did use the effect too much, like a new toy.
