It got a fair amount of airplay in the Los Angeles area (93 KHJ) and went to #31 on the bIllboard top 100. Hendrix had a ver different take on the song, but I loved the driving energy of The Leaves version.

Many years ago, I read that "Hey Joe" was a song that many artists covered at the time, especially L.A. bands. The Byrds, Love & several others who never even recorded it. It's entirely possible that Hendrix & the Leaves recorded it without any knowledge of the others version, until later. The lead guitar was added to the Leaves version by a studio musician. The unadorned version was on the LP & is nothing compared to this single version, which is one of my favorite records from the 60's. Lots of energy. Jimi's version is so original, I wouldn't bother comparing the two. Both are great!
@total.stranger7 жыл бұрын
@Mr22thou: The version uploaded here is a stereo mix and it's the same mix that was included on both the original mono and stereo LP releases from July 1966. There's nothing different about it. The original 45 release with 'Funny Little World' on the B side has this same mix.

BTW, for some of you that are unaware of the chemistry between Hendrix & Redding....when the band was put together, Redding thought he was auditioning for lead guitar but when he was told he was playing bass, he was not a happy camper. As a result, over time, Redding would not show up for recordings & Jimi didn’t give a shit coz he would lay down the bass tracks himself which is what you’re hearing on some of the later recordings. Noel wanted his band “Fat Mattress” to make it big. Jimi even let his band open for him in some of their Fillmore East shows but the bands writing material sucked. Most of the time they were booed off the stage but Jimi was very patient with Noel until he hooked up with Billy Cox....

Well, this version of the old traditional blues tune, covered by so many, was my 1st exposure to good old Hey Joe in, what, '66?

Except that it is not an 'old traditional'. Billy Roberts wrote it around 1966 and 'The Leaves' tried to steal it by claiming it was their song. Luckily Hendrix and others backed Roberts' claim that he was the composer.

possibly heresy, but this is my favourite version, followed by Hendrix, then Zappa

I'm a big fan of Jimi, but I have to agree.

Zappa, whaaaaat! You mean Flower Punk, not Hey Joe.

Jim Pons, joined with Zappa and the Mothers, may have inspired their version, Hey Punk, in a different tempo and lyrics, long live satire, their version also predates Hendrix's
