abstract
  • %22Third Stone from the Sun%22 is a song by the Jimi Hendrix Experience. It was written by Jimi Hendrix and included on the 1967 Are You Experienced album. It is mostly an instrumental, but includes brief spoken passages by Hendrix over the music. Elements of jazz are heard in the Wes Montgomery-style octave guitar melody line and Mitch Mitchell's Elvin Jones-influenced drumming. The title is a reference to Earth in its position as the third planet away from the sun in the Solar System.Voice recordings of Hendrix and his manager Chas Chandler are heard at a slower speed. At normal speed, the dialogue includes Hendrix : Star fleet to scout ship, please give your position. Over. Chandler : I am in orbit around the third planet of star known as sun. Over. Hendrix : May this be Earth? Over. Chandler : Positive. It is known to have some form of intelligent species. Over. Hendrix : I think we should take a look (Jimi then makes vocal spaceship noises).Towards the end of the song, Hendrix's science-fiction character intones, %22To you I shall put an end, then you'll never hear surf music again.%22 According to Dick Dale, the %22King of the Surf Guitar%22, it was Hendrix's way of encouraging his recuperation when Dale was seriously ill. Dale later recorded the piece as a tribute to Hendrix.
