It also includes Electric Ladyland: The Early Takes which features demos, and studio outtakes, as well as a 48-page book featuring Jimi’s handwritten lyrics, poems, and instructions to his record label Reprise.

The deluxe box set also features alternate artwork – a photo of the band at New Yok’s Alice In Wonderland statue taken by Linda McCartney, which was Hendrix’s original choice for the album art.

The set is completed with the inclusion of 1997 documentary At Last… The Beginning: The Making of Electric Ladyland on Blu Ray.
