"You Got Me Floatin'" was P.M. Dawn's contribution to Stone Free: A Tribute to Jimi Hendrix, the 1993 various-artists salute that pulled players in from all over the map, from Hendrix's classic rock peers Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck to blues man Buddy Guy, violinist Nigel Kennedy and alternative acts Belly and Spin Doctors. The hip-hop act produced its own take on the Hendrix song, with Michael Fossenkemper engineering.
According to the liner notes, each artist was urged to pick a favorite and leave a personal mark on it, and P.M. Dawn went further than most: theirs stands with the Cure's, Nigel Kennedy's and Pat Metheny's as one of the record's most radical reworkings, a long way from the faithful copies some of the other guests turned in.
