Lyrics

01. Purple Haze tracks

Purple haze All in my brain
Lately things don't seem the same
Acting funny but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

Purple Haze all around
Don't know if I'm climbin up or down
Am I happy or in misery
Whatever it is That girl put a spell on me

Help me Help me

SOLO

Purple haze all in my eyes
Don't know if it's day or night
You got me blown Blown my mind
Is it tomorrow or the end of time

Help me Help me

02. Manic Depression tracks

Manic depression is touchin' my soul
I know what I want but I just don't know how to heh!
Go about gettin' it
Feelin' sweet feelin' Drops fom my fingers
Manic depression is a catchin' my soul Yeah

Woman so weary The sweet cause in vain
You make love You break love It's all the same when it's
When it's over
Music sweet music I wish I could caress Caress Caress
Manic depression is a frustrating mess!

SOLO

Cry on Guitar

Well I think I'll go turn myself off and go on down All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hangin' around in Your kind-a scene
Music sweet music I wish I could caess and a kiss Kiss
Manic depression is a frustratin' mess!

Music sweet music Sweet music Sweet music
Music sweet music Sweet music Yeah

04. Love or Confusion tracks

Is that the stars in the sky, or is it
rain fallin' down
Will it burn me if I touch the sun-uh, yeah
so big, so round

Would I be truthful, yeah, in, uh
in chosin' you as the one for me?
Is this love, baby
or is it, uh-huh,
just, uh, confusion?

O-Oh, my mind is so messed up-uh
Goin' 'round and 'round
Must there be all the colors-uh
without names, without sound, baby?
My heart burns with feeling, but, uh
Woe, but my mind, its cold and reeling
Is this love, baby
or, uh-huh, or is it confusion?

Oh, my head is poundin', poundin'
Goin' 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round
Must there always be these colors?, uh
without names, without sound
My heart burns with feelin'
Oh, but my mind is cold and reelin', uh
Is this love, baby
or is it-uh, huh, just, uh, confusion?
Oh, you tell me baby, is this , uh
love or confusion?

Mama, we must get together and, uh
find out
exactly what we're tryin' to do

Love or confusion?
Confusion

05. May This Be Love tracks

Waterfall
nothing can harm me at all
My worries seem so very small
with my waterfall

I can see
my rainbow calling me
through the misty breeze
of my waterfall

Some people say
day-dreamings for all the, huh,
lazy minded fools
with nothin' else to do
So let them laugh, laugh at me
So just as long as I have you
to see me through
I have nothing to lose
'Long as I have you

Waterfall
don't ever change your ways
Fall with me for a million days
Oh, my waterfall

06. I Don't Live Today tracks

Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say
But I know for sure
I don't live today

No sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
No-ho sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
I wish you'd hurry up and execute me
so I can be on my miserable way

(Well), I don't
live today
Maybe tomorrow, I just can't say, but, uh
I don't
live today
Its such a shame to waste your time away like this

Existing

Well, uh-I don't

Maybe tomorrow, I just can't tell you baby, but, uh

Uh, get experienced {clap} (BV=[Are] you experienced?)
Are you experienced? (BV={clap} Are you experienced?)

07. The Wind Cries Mary tracks

After all the jacks are in the boxes And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness staggering on down the street
Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers Mary

A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterday's life
Somewhere a queen is weeping Somewhere a king has no wife
And the wind It cries Mary

LEAD

The traffic lights They turn blue tomorrow
And shine their emptiness down on my bed
The tiny island stays downstream Cause the life that lived is Is dead
And the wind screams Mary

Will the wind ever remember The names it has flown in the past
And with this crutch It's old age And it's wisdom
It whispers No This will be the last
And the wind cries Mary

08. Fire tracks

Alright Now did this baby

You don't care for me I don't care about that
You got a new fool Hah! I like him right back
I have only one burning desire Let me stand next to your fire
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Hey Let me stand next to your fire
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Oh Let me stand Baby
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Let me stand
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Yeah Baby

Listen here Baby Stop acting so crazy
You say your mom ain't home Ain't my concern
Just don't play with me And you won't get burned
I have only one itching desire Let me stand next to your fire
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Yeah Let me stand next to your ire
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Let me stand
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Oh Let me stand
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Oh

Oh move over Rover Now let Jimi take over
Yeah You know what I'm talking about Yeah Get on with it Baby

SOLO

That's what I'm talking about Now dig this Ha Now listen Baby
You try to give your money You better save it Babe
Save it for your rainy day
I have only one burning desire Let me stand next to your fire
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Oh Let me stand
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE Oh Let me stand Baby
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE I ain't gonna do you no harm
LET ME STAND NEXT TO YOUR FIRE

09. Third Stone from the Sun tracks

{intro slowed down talking begins}
Star fleet to scout ship, please give your position. Over.
I'm in orbit around the third planet from the star called
the sun. Over.
You mean its the Earth? Over.
Positive. It is known to have some form of intelligent species. Over.
I think we should take a look.
{intro slowwed down talking ends}

Strange beautiful grass of green,
with your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine?

{start slowwed down}
Strange beautiful, grass of green
with your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine?
{end slowwed down}

Although your world wonders me,
with your majestic and superior cackling hen
Your people I do not understand,
so to you I shall put an end
And you'll
never hear
surf music again

{start slowwed down...rough guess at lyrics}
Secret
Oh, secret
Oh
Shhhh...
{end slowwed down}

11. Are You Experienced? tracks

If you can just get your mind together
uh-then come on across to me
We'll hold hands and then we'll
watch the sunrise
from the bottom of the sea
But first, are you experienced?
Uh-have you ever been experienced-uh?
Well, I have

(Well) I know, I know, you'll probably scream and cry
that your little world won't let you go
But who in your measly little world, (-uh)
are you tryin' to prove to that you're
made out of gold and-uh, can't be sold
So-uh, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced? (-uh)
Well, I have
Uh, let me prove it to you,
yeah

Trumpets and violins I can-uh, hear in the distance
I think they're callin' our name
Maybe now you can't hear them,
but you will, ha-ha, if you just
take hold of my hand
Ohhh, but are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?

Not necessarily stoned, but
beautiful

Reviews

Recording for the Experience's explosive debut began shortly after, manager Chas Chandler brought Jimi Hendrix to London and recruited bassist, Noel Redding and drummer, Mitch Mitchell. Together this unique trio blended to record their debut single, "Hey Joe" b/w "Stone Free" which hit the shelves on December 16, 1966 (Polydor 56139)
Upon securing a deal with Track Records, Chandler moved further Experience recordings over to Olympic Studios where Eddie Kramer was a staff engineer.
For 5 months (October 23, 1966 till April 3, 1967), Chandler pushed The Jimi Hendrix Experience to new heights and allowed Jimi's musical playing to rampantly evolve further than ever before. Upon hearing the freshly completed tapes, Polydor's head of A&R, Horst Schmaltze said, "This is brilliant. This is the greatest thing I've ever heard!" Redding and Mitchell's support work blossomed and the group managed to release its debut collection, titled Are You Experienced? on May 12 in Europe (Track 612 001), and later that August (Reprise RS 6261), back in Jimi's home country of America.
