There were signs on "Electric Ladyland" he was going in new directions, but it's a worthy question.
Quite a few poster children of the Peace'n'Love movement died when the Age of Aquarius dialed in:
Joplin, Jones, Hendrix, Wilson, Morrison; while others hung it up: The Beatles, Simon&Garfunkel,
Jefferson Airplane. By '72, many acts simply moved on.
It's interesting that a fad that lasted long and revered by some to this day didn't have NEAR the shelf
life some fads have had, namely rap, and the manufactured groups of today.
Hendrix was blues, soul, electric jazz, modernistic, black, hints of pre Brooklyn rap, Northern folk, and his personality expressed partly through melodies that sound native American and something otherworldly.
Hendrix was not a hippy. Hendrix was not Psychedelic.
I suggest going back to listen to the first 3 albums. Don't tell me that 1983 A Merman I May Turn To Be...Moon Turn The Tides Slowly Slowly Away, Third Stone From The Sun, Little Wing, Bold As Love and a lot of the music he recorded between 67 and 68 is not psychedelic.

Yeah but Third stone, Little Wing and Bold are really more blues, ballad and pop with an experimental touch.

Btw, The Hendrix nabbed the theme from Coronation Street for TSFTS.
