“Third Stone from the Sun” 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. Dale later recorded the piece as a tribute to Hendrix. Read on...

Song lines: ♪ With your majestic silver seas ... Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer ... Strange beautiful grass of green
