Kiss the Sky is a compilation album by American rock guitarist, singer–songwriter Jimi Hendrix; released through Polydor Records in November 1984. The album's title is taken from the lyrics of "Purple Haze." "Red House" was listed in the liner notes as the "unedited version" which amounted to a few seconds of studio chat that preceded the song. "Stepping Stone" was purported to be the original Band of Gypsys single mix, but in fact is an alternate mix that is similar to the single mix. "Killing Floor" from the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival was unreleased at the time.

The front cover artwork of the 1984 CD release on Reprise boasted "Digitally remastered from original vault tapes", whilst the Reprise cassette cover artwork stated "Special Edition Jimi Hendrix album. Digitally remastered from original vault tapes. Audiophile qualilty recording on high-qualilty cassette".

All songs are written by Jimi Hendrix, except where noted.
