Sticking my neck out here, because everyone willhave their opinion and Hendrix die-hards can get pretty passionate about it - so my suggestion is next up should be Band of Gypsies, because it is a core release during his lifetime. Then I would get Berkeley and Atlanta Pop. After that, the big one is Winterland, an 8LP set. You have a pretty good representation with those. Finally, I would get New Rays and Valleys of Neptune, because they are the best representations of his final studio work.

of the newer recent (non 3 essential) Hendrix family approved albums, which would you choose next after those 3 ? (ps I also have Atlanta Pop)

I’ll say it again. Cry of Love is still the best posthumous album.
Also @JohnnyCashFan what do you mean by three, they’ve done five.
I’ve probably listened to Blues more than any other release.
As far as live, I agree with @RHANDMJ Wintwrland is amazing, less expensive go for Berkeley.

This was indeed worth the upgrade and the few extra bucks. Was not expecting a variant, but that’s a plus:

Thanks for the knowledge here.
Got my first two Hendrix Estate records in.
Both sound great. Electric Ladyland stands out with a really impressive sound. A real head turner.

Just picked up Axis, Blues and the last copy of Cry of Love from Target.
That rounds out a pretty good collection of Hendrix for $80.
Kind of hard to believe in today's expensive vinyl world.

The Electric Ladyland copy I was shipped is a 2010 pressing. Seems fairly dated IMO for Taget inventory. Sounds fantastic.
Is this the same release everyone's seeing?

The one you've linked to is numbered. Is that what you have? I have this one, looks like it's the same pressing, but not numbered:The Electric Ladyland copy I was shipped is a 2010 pressing. Seems fairly dated IMO for Taget inventory. Sounds fantastic.

Did yours come in QRP inners? If so, then it's likely this 2015 repress, which they keep repressing

given the package I got today from @avecigrec and The Rainbow Bridge that also arrived, I only have People, Hell and Angels left to have a complete set of the Estate studio releases. I have one of those on Back Order from the Authentic site (didn't realize it was a back order at the time - but think this must mean a repress is eminent.) I have Monterey and Berkley also on the way, so I've already started my live collection.

I bought this the day it was released my sophomore year of college. It's collected from different shows but I find it well constructed and very enjoyable. I Don't Live Today is a beaut. While it hasn't been in print for a while, you can have it on the cheap...

I'll say it with you.
Also - just go ahead and get the purple velvet box. I don't think the box is velvet anymore, but the music is.
It...
a) warms my heart your old man ass is now getting into Hendrix
b) shocks me your old man ass is just now getting into Hendrix
c) both a and b

Hell my first Hendrix was a cassette copy of Cry of Love sometime in the eighties.
