So You Will Never Have to Listen to Surf Music Again James Marshall Hendrix
Posted on Sep 09 2006 11:39 PM
So I was listening to Jimi Hendrix last night and one of the songs I ran over was the instrumental "Third Stone From the Sun" in which he utters the line ". . . Your people I do not empathise, and so to yous I shall put an finish, and you'll never hear surf music again. . ."
Trriiiippy
I've heard the story about the line supposedly alluding to Dick Dale having cancer(?) and the opinion that information technology was just sort of opening people'due south eyes to their sins of abandoning surf or something. Does anyone really know annihilation else about the line? Did he mean anything in particular or ever explicate afterwards?

that has been discipline of a lot of debate and speculation. Ferenc gave the winning reply in this thread
when I posted this motion-picture show 
Ferenc responded
Ferenc
I think he tried out the Jag, loved it and started to write a bunch of surf songs, and then dropped it and it broke, so he said "You lot will never hear surf music again..." Finally a reasonable explanation for that mysterious quote.

That'south pretty hilarious, and entirely reasonable. Silly ol' Jimi, always dropping guitars and abandoning genres equally a result and and so talking about it on his records.
Anyways, thanks WR. I judge that's about equally helpful as it will get. I like how that thread devolved into an in-depth commentary on hippydom.

Dick likes to tell the story that Jimi said that quote about him.
Most people agree that Jimi was talking about the Beach Boys not playing the Monterey Jazz festival due to Brian's odd behaviour. There are other ideas as well, elsewhere, Jimi takes an alien's view of planet earth, and may have been observing how the people of the strange, beautiful planet are destroying it, to the betoken where they will never hear 'surf music once again", surf music existence the cute sound of crashing waves, not reverb tanks. This was a large debate in my dorm, circa 1983 (a merman I should turn to exist).

I heard somewhere that Jimi used to attend Dick Dale's shows dorsum when Jimi was a "nobody."
Here's a link to an MP3 extract from that recording with the out-takes. It's pretty funny.

man he sounds like he's baked at that place.
Ferenc, anyone,
did the mermen ever do "3rd rock from the Sun" live or in any version?
or would that be too obvious.

I've heard that the Mermen at least partially took their name from 1983. . . Is that also truthful?

Could Jimi Hendrix run into the futurity?
Are the real meaning of his comments about Pollo Del Mar...
It's obvious that he's talking about Pollo Del Mar or why else would he have the line "with your majestic and superior cackling hen"
He'south talking almost chicken and surf music... He has to be talking most Pollo Del Mar... or maybe Southern Culture on the Skids...
OK... Yes I am kidding by this... I simply remember that people have been reading as well much into this...
I'g surprised that noone has brought up the tertiary rock version that is on the Hendrix box prepare that came out virtually 4 or five years ago... Information technology has a line that might make a divergence to how everybody is looking at this topic...
Right after the "Never hear surf music again" line in the song...
Jimi clearly says,
"That sounds like a lie to me..."
And then... It'southward a lie when he says that y'all will never hear surf music once again....
Thank you!
Fez
P.Due south. Here's a transcript of what he says on the box prepare version...
(Notation at that place are 2 failed attempts at reciting this on the recording before the start point of this transcript... they audio pretty stoned... imagine that... Ha!)
Star fleet to scout ship, delight give your position. Over.
I'm in orbit around the third planet of star known as sunday.
Over.
May this exist Earth?
Over.
Positive. It is known to have some form of intelligent species.
Over.
I think we should take a await.
are you getting all that Jimi
Strange beautiful grass of dark-green,
with your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to come across closer
May I country my kinky machine?
Although your world wonders me,
with your majestic and superior cackling hen
Your people I do not sympathise,
so to you I shall put an stop
And you lot'll never hear surf music again
That sounds similar a prevarication to me

My band covers Third Stone without all the cool space talk. I just say one line from the song slightly changed,
"May yous forever hear surf music my friends"
I love Jimi but that always bothered me. I am glad to know he really didn't mean information technology.

I don't Jags burn likewise well. Not as nice equally a strat.
I think information technology's a real possitive statement towards surf, the end of the world ways you lot'll never hear surf music again. And Jimi didn't say "you lot'll never HAVE to hear surf once again"

Come up On human being let'south go abode
Actually, with this context - which I'd never heard before - it'south simply a line in a vocal. Information technology needn't have whatsoever more pregnant exterior the vocal than any other line in the song, due east.yard., equally suggested, we might ponder the sense out of context of "your majestic and superior cackling hen." The visitor likes the scenery and dislikes mankind, but notes that if he should destroy them, then "You'll never hear surf music over again." Given Jimi's phrasing, I'd guess he doesn't hateful that if he destroys homo no ane else will hear human being's "surf music" again, just rather that if he destroys human, homo will never hear "the music of the surf over again."

Only institute this video - obviously the primeval ane known to exist - of Jimi playing a Jazzmaster. Fifty-fifty in a big soul band, you could tell that's him on guitar.

I'm sure Jimi was getting too much attending and Little Richard was supposed to be the star of the show.
