Trivia
Interesting facts about Purple Haze. By Songfacts.
Hendrix claimed this was inspired by a dream where he was walking under the sea. In the dream, he said a purple haze surrounded him, engulfed him and got him lost. It was a traumatic experience, but in his dream his faith in Jesus saved him.
At one point, Hendrix wrote the chorus as "purple haze, Jesus saves," but decided against it.
Part of the lyrics were formed from some of Jimi's free verse ramblings that he jotted down from time to time.
