Talk:Band of Gypsys/Archive 1

Power to Soul
The name of the track is "Power to Soul". Current reprints have that same mistaken title "Power to Love" as the original vinyl while some reprints have the right title. However, because it is apparanent that the right title is "Power of Soul", we should use that one. Probably the original vinyl had the mistake just because next track, Message to Love, has a similiar name. Actually I am not even sure whether the mistake originates from the original vinyl sleeve or from some other occasion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.214.69.47 (talk • contribs).

Django Reinhardt and Jimi Hendrix
I have heard that Jimi named the "Band of Gypsys" because of he listened to "Django Reinhardt"


 * All very well, but where? and was it a reliable source, I've never heard of this, it's not mentioned in any of the major biographies Jameselmo (talk) 18:40, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Them Changes
Similarly to the title mistake mentioned above, the actual title of the song is "Them Changes," not "Changes." In the intro to the song on the album Jimi clearly says "Them Changes" and it is listed as such on Buddy Miles's website. Also, I see on the track listing we keep the typos, so this should be Message of Love not Message to Love, although 'to' is correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.34.189.194 (talk) 23:24, 12 March 2007 (UTC).

actually, Jimi said he thought of it after him and his drummer Mitch were in a crowd, and Mitch said "it's like a band of gypsies in here." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.215.5.90 (talk) 19:35, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

= John Peel = The UK version, and presumably also the Brazilian version, had a different cover, which featured a photograph of dolls based on Hendrix and his band, and also of the British DJ John Peel. There's an image here. It would be interesting to know more about the cover and the edition. -Ashley Pomeroy 19:09, 21 April 2007 (UTC)


 * The dolls on the cover are of Jimi, John Peel, Brian Jones and Bob Dylan. --Mickraus 20:21, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

= Live At the Filmore East =

This article does not mention Live at the Filmore East which contains a lot of the previously unreleased material released by MCA in 1999. Perhaps someone with better wiki skills than I would care to add this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.34.135 (talk) 22:26, 20 May 2011 (UTC)

Interesting fact.
Tommy Ramone worked on this album as an assistant engineer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.217.84.214 (talk) 23:31, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
