Cry of Love is the posthumous fourth studio album by American musician Jimi Hendrix, released in February 1971. It was the first Hendrix album released after his death and was engineered, mixed and compiled by Eddie Kramer and Mitch Mitchell. All songs on the album were written by Hendrix and recorded from late December 1969 through the summer of 1970, except for “My Friend.” Much of the material was recorded before Electric Lady had officially opened its doors and consists of the only recordings of Hendrix in his new studio.
Side Note: “Belly Button Window” was Hendrix’s last studio recording with vocals, recorded at Electric Lady Studios on August 22, 1970; his final recording, an instrumental track known simply as “Slow Blues”, was recorded at Electric Lady on August, 24th, 1970.
