I have a question for any Jimi fans out in the listening audience.
Is there any particular reason that I can find just about every imaginable live version of
Spanish Castle Magic on youtube but not a single studio version? There are "instrumental" studio vids out there. A crap ton of live versions. Plenty of covers. But to find a single studio cut of this song has been eluding me for years. I'm curious if anyone knows the reason for this? Especially since you can find pretty much every other song he recorded both studio and live, but the studio of this one just seems to have disappeared off the face of the web.
I did find one VIMEO video that some dude uploaded of him and his wife on a trip to Spain, so the audio is proper, but I'd rather not look at them (not because they are hideous or anything, but I don't know them
)
