Are You Experienced
Guitar legend's first
Are You Experienced is the debut studio album by the Jimi Hendrix Experience, released in 1967.
Widely considered one of the most influential rock albums ever made, it introduced Hendrix's revolutionary guitar techniques to a mass audience.
The title track's question—Are you experienced? —suggests initiation into altered states of consciousness, whether through drugs, music, or transcendent experience.
The phrase now evokes the psychedelic era generally.
