Purple Haze by Jimi Hendix Recorded and Released by Jimi in early 1967 This was his second single that peaked at Number 3 in UK charts. Original Bassist: Noel Redding Tabbed by bass50611. Think is more or less what Noel Redding played on original recording. Guitar starts in Bb over first bit.

Great tab. Just a note that the intro is octave E's like you have as the 'second part' the whole time. The guitar is playing the Bb lick with the bass doing the E lick. Cheers
Thanks for your comment. I have had another listen and your right! Have amended my tab
This is way more accurate AND groovier than the currently most popular bass tab of this song on UG. Great work!
