I agree. The Mitchell incarnation of the Gypsies/Exp band is my favorite.
What I liked most about Miles was his voice. He added a lot to the Gypsies in that regard. Some of those songs needed more than what Jimi had. Imagine Fillmore with Mitchell on drums, Miles on vocals, Jimi on vox and guitar, and Cox still on bass. Shit!
Mitch had a jazz touch. Hendrix, if he had lived, surely would have followed Mitch there. All indications pointed toward Jimi being a Miles Davis kind of figure in two or three years.
