Derek and the Dominos - Little Wing (Studio)

its kinda hard to compare (and useless too)...
if u take away the lyrics they are totally different songs...first time i heard D&D version i though it was not a cover, but a song with the same title

i prefer Derek and Domino's take on Little Wing opposed to Jimi's. Got to love that guitar riff in the beginning. Along with Duane Allman.

Eric Clapton at his best.....

I just love the slightly out-of-phase guitar sound (pickup selector between bridge and middle pickup!) on this track.....right through my soul, Eric!

of course, clapton could'nt replicate hendrix because he wasn't left-handed one, and most important both had different styles and each a true guitar genius. both versions are excellent.

Ah, but you did, and here you are now, attempting to save face. Just walk away, and let this be the last of it.

Thank you for the well wishes. I have fun everyday.

yeah I should have have realized that there was no point in responding to a comment by a troll...

Whatever have fun with the rest of your life

Ah, the internet; a haven for morons such as yourself. I'm going to make this simple, so hopefully you'll understand.

What you did was contradict yourself. You chastised me for disagreeing with someone's stated opinion, thereby disagreeing with my opinion, and then you felt the need to state your opinion.

No one cares about what you have to say. In fact, most of us are hoping that you die, or are otherwise horribly crippled, so we will never have to read or hear another opinion of yours.

I think that you shouldn't say other people's opinions are wrong...

Personally I think both versions are utterly fantastic and very different.

Thank you so much for posting!!! I've tried to appreciate Jimi's original, but it just doesn't feel as on as this version is.
