Experience Hendrix and Legacy Recordings have a brand-new collection that celebrates The Jimi Hendrix Experience's near-mythic performances on Maui, Hawaii in 1970. Live In Maui brings together audio and video with a new feature-length documentary called Music, Money, Madness: Jimi Hendrix In Maui. The collection will be available in 2-CD/Blu-ray and 3-LP/Blu-ray configurations, all due on November 20. Director John McDermott's new documentary film chronicles the Jimi Hendrix Experience's visit to Maui and the story of the Rainbow Bridge film by incorporating period footage with new interviews with Chuck Wein, Billy Cox, Eddie Kramer, and others key figures. It's presented in both editions of Experience Hendrix/Legacy's release on Blu-ray, and the discs will also feature all of the existing 16mm color footage from the two afternoon sets captured on July 30, 1970 mixed in stereo and 5.1 surround. The accompanying 2-CD set features Hendrix, Billy Cox, and Mitch Mitchell's restored Maui sets, newly mixed by Eddie Kramer and mastered by Bernie Grundman.
