I adore this album. It's one of those classics that just has aged well. To my ears there's never been a greater guitar album, or a greater tour de force of rock music than this. I'm specifically speaking of the U.S. Release, but I love the UK release too. Everything Hendrix did with the experience in 66 and 67 was phenomenal. Every moment of this album is enticing, filled with energy and vitality, and just so amazingly cool seven all these years later. I think this is the greatest straight rock or blues rock album released in the 60s and early seventies. And yeah I just adore it.

Had a very abridged Jimi Hendrix phase in late middle school, and this was always my favorite of his. It has the least bloat and the best songs of the Experience albums by a ways. Still, not something I've returned to any time in the past ehhh five or so years I guess?

I love it, just as I love almost everything Hendrix did. It's got some absolute classics ("Foxy Lady", "Manic Depression", "Red House", "Love Or Confusion", "Fire") and instrumentally, the album is fantastic. Like, Mitch Mitchell's drumming on "Fire" is ridiculous.
I'd still say I like Axis better. For me, Hendrix's stuff goes Axis > Are You Experienced > Electric Ladyland
