Rushman Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I know we have a lot of music lovers on this forum. Which version of Little Wing do you prefer.....Jimi's of Stevie's Both are top 100 songs of all time in my book, but SRV's guitar made a haunting sound. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=20.631761,-87.070671
dB69 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Jimi of course! SRV plays too nervously to me, he should settle down a bit. How about this: http://youtu.be/BLQjVvDTRPQ
DrunkenMonkey Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Cigars or beer? Sex or football? I refuse to choose. Both are beautiful.
Vetteman Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Nobody does Jimi better than Jimi, but I like D&D's version next. IMO the vocals and emotion are critical to the song.
Rushman Posted August 16, 2012 Author Posted August 16, 2012 There are many great versions - I love the Sting version as posted here - I liked that before I really got into Jimi or SRV.

canadianbeaver Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Jimi... But I would love to hear Jonny Lang do this song.
Erm310mce Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 Jimi was a legend but SRV took it to another level. I love them both for different reasons and Jimi was Stevie's hero so he would probably say Jimi played it better. Both passed way to young and i believe their best music was yet to be played. Stevie was playing at such a high level when he passed. We were robbed of some great music. One of the my favorite players of all time.
jpn Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Cigars or beer? Sex or football? I refuse to choose. Both are beautiful. Well said.
bassman Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 Jimi gets my vote. Other favorites are and . Monte also does a killer version of Voodoo Child (Slight Return) on acoustic guitar.
Jnaube Posted August 20, 2012 Posted August 20, 2012 Regular version: Jimi. Favorite version: G3 jam. Great question by the way!
