"Angel" (also titled "Sweet Angel") is a song by American rock musician Jimi Hendrix, featured on his 1971 posthumous studio album The Cry of Love. Written and self-produced by Hendrix, he recorded it for his planned fourth studio album just months before he died in September 1970.
In 1971, "Angel" was included on the first posthumously-released Hendrix album, The Cry of Love. The same year, the song was also released as a single A-side in the United Kingdom and as a B-side in the United States.
