The Wind Cries Mary
"The Wind Cries Mary" is a rock ballad written by Jimi Hendrix. By his then girlfriend's, Kathy Etchingham's, account, he wrote the lyrics after an argument with her, using "Mary" (Etchingham's middle name). In a later interview, Hendrix commented that the lyrics represent "more than one person". Billy Cox, Hendrix's long-time friend and later bassist, has noted Curtis Mayfield's influence on the song. Hendrix performed elements or an early version in the summer of 1966 with his band Jimmy James and the Blue Flames in New York City.
