Like other apps in this series, there are detailed song and album notes, and even an “Extras” section where ringtones, wallpaper and links to popular Dylan websites can be found. It's fan-ware, but of the best sort: this app will leave any Dylan aficionado with some warm memories and a wealth of new information on the poet laureate of the Hippie generation.
Jimi Hendrix The Complete Experience takes fans who were there and those of us who wish we had been, through the legend's life and music. Sony Music Entertainment hardly recreates the vibe that of the iconic shredder of the "Star Spangled Banner" at Woodstock, but it's a great download.
Sony is clearly promotng their Hendrix catalog - by the song, album, movie or even complete discography - but, what a great way to shop. They say the app will evolve with new videos and features added regularly, but as it stands it’s a pretty groovy package.
It looks at Jimi's studio works, albums, filmography and the “Experience”, which references both the name of his band and the Voodoo Chile scene. That’s not all, there's a Venues section and one just on the Isle of Wight Festival with some goodies like a real-to-real tape player. The free app has AirPlay support, and social network integration.
