 "Voodoo Soup" was Douglas' attempt at presenting Hendrix's planned fourth studio album.The first attempt in 1971, "The Cry of Love", produced by drummer Mitch Mitchell and Eddie Kramer (with a credit to Hendrix), was then out of print (last released on CD in 1992; re-released in 2014).After Experience Hendrix, a family company, gained control of his recordings, "First Rays of the New Rising Sun" was released in 1997 as another attempt to realize the album Hendrix had planned.
