Learn how to play Purple Haze as performed by The Jimi Hendrix Experience from the landmark album from 1967, "Are You Experienced". If there is a quintessential Jimi Hendrix song, does it get more iconic than this one?

I'll cover all Jimi's parts here from the intro, main riff, solo, verses, and outro lick. And to really sound like the record you need a specific pedal effect - watch to see what that is.

Got a suggestion for a piece of a song to cover on an upcoming episode? Leave it in the comments, would love to hear ideas.
