No, Jimi Hendrix did not originally sing "Wild Thing." The song was written by Chip Taylor and first recorded by The Wild Ones in 1965, but it gained significant popularity when covered by The Troggs. Hendrix famously performed a cover of "Wild Thing" at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967, which is often credited with bringing the song to a wider audience.
