Background: Recorded in 1970 and released a number of times on various labels, and under various titles, Live at the L.A. Forum (also known as Hendrix Alive) is a concert recording of Hendrix performing at the Los Angeles Forum on April 25, 1970.
This album was reissued in 1976-1978 by several different labels that were reportedly operated by the same people: Idle Mind Records, Mushroom Records and Ruthless Rhymes records. We believe the Ruthless Rhymes pressing came first, with the Mushroom pressing following shortly thereafter.
While the sound quality isn’t the best, the album is highly regarded as the performance is considered to be one of Hendrix’s best live shows.

- Spanish Castle Magic
