"FIRE"! Robert's Two Reimagined Versions Of "Fire", Jimi Hendrix's Classic Song, Recorded 25 Years Apart!
1Description
Jimi Hendrix is one of the most iconic figures in all of rock music and was a hero to Robert and millions of people. So when Robert recorded his debut album "Miles Behind" in 1994 he decided to include a cover of one of Jimi’s songs. He chose to reimagine a “psychedelic jazz” version of Hendrix’s classic “Fire”. It features Al Foster from Miles Davis’ band on drums plus the amazing Ada Dyer on vocals. Twenty five years later, with his band, Project Grand Slam, Robert decided to re-record “Fire” but in a different style. This new, reimagined version of the song became the band’s closing number in concert. This episode features a bit of both versions of “Fire” - the studio version from 1994, and a “live” concert version from 2018 from the “It’s Alive!” album, featuring the wonderful Ziarra Washington on vocals. Listen to the passage of time. And thank you Jimi!
