Here we have an original UK promo poster for one of the biggest names in music the one and only Jimi Hendrix. His third studio album the double LP Electric Ladyland was released by Track Records in the UK in October 1968. The record was the Experience's most commercially successful release and their only number one album.

 

Track Records hired photographer David Montgomery who shot a photo of nineteen nude women lounging in front of a black background. The cover was banned by several record dealers because of the nudity while others sold it with the gatefold cover turned inside out or in a brown wrapper. This UK promo poster was issued to retail stores before the album cover art was changed to the profile of Jimi's face. A very unique gem indeed. 100% Original with no restoration.
