  • The songs are so heart wrenching and poignant that any version played with this much soul, love, truth, genius.........honor the memory of the humble boy from Seattle who had incredible influence on global music and culture. This beautiful tribute as well as the Corrs magical Irish version exemplify that. Thanks for the video and beautiful comments. I often imagine Jimi hearing these beautiful versions sitting on clouds in Heaven smiling.

  • Magic

  • How come i didnt find this cover before while searching Jimi's cover! Absolutely great cover with nice guitar works and vocals

  • we all know. who wrote it. who might be the genius or the best or your favorite or who deserves credit and what not. its about whats before you now. and the good things jimi would say to see someone else inspired by his tunes. good things. this is bitchin

  • It would be awesome to grow old with a wife like that one.

  • quando una voce si armonizza pienamente con uno strumento...grazie anche al grande hendrix...

  • Just beautiful. :-)

  • Who are these people! They are FANTASTIC. This the THE BEST COVER!

  • @annd10001 They are a husband and wife duo from California. This video is pretty much how they record their albums: two tracks, recorded simultaneously, usually nailing it on the first take. Beautiful music from beautiful people. Years ago their record company put me in touch with the author of "Take My Breath Away," who faxed me a copy of her original handwritten score so that I could play it at my wedding. I still have it among my most treasured musical memorabilia.

  • Love them!

  • Excellent!!

  • jimi would of loved this,.. a beautiful tribute

  • I've loved them since the 1980's with their first CD & saw them live soon after that.... "Little Wing" comes out of the ether somewhere around 2:30. Gorgeous arrangement. This duo have heavily influenced me from the start.....on so many levels. Thanks, Tuck & Patti....you are a blessing.

  • Damn, this sent a chill through my spine... Tuck & Patti, Im goin' old with you and these are the good years...

  • Actually, it is in G Mixolydian.

  • Jimi would nod his head, smile and say quietly "Alright". 5*!

  • My Heros!

    Thank the both of you!

  • Jimi would be proud.

  • i could do that if i had an L-5, i wish:) Awsome!!!

  • Awesome jimi!! James watch this bro!!!

  • Always loved their version!

    

  • I usually hate covers like this but the guitar playing is awesome.

  • Great performance, but the true genius is who wrote it

  • @fhdjsahfdjsha

    Well they're both geniuses! :)

  • Somewhat unusual but lovely nonetheless.

  • amazing

  • super cool

    

  • unorthodox...but i like it....

  • This is the best adaptation of this song i've ever heard

  • i'm walking through the cloud~~~~~~~~~

  • from 4:48 to 4:52 ..he shows what he can actually do.

  • James Marshall that's who

  • puta que o pariu, sem mais palavras.

  • soo pretty

  • that was just mindbogling

  • I was born to this song. no lie. :)

  • Absolute magic between the two.....

  • Thanx for the upload.I love Tuck & Patti.They`re great

  • Tuck looks like Tim Robins... btw, this is the best duo ever!

  • fly on little wing...

  • awful string walk, sloppy sloppy.

  • @m:It sounds that way because it's so clean & full range: Bartonlini pups don't lose highs when turned down, no distortion, effects, or midrange hump: Every overtone clear. Most jazz & rock players do whatever possible to mask such high-end "noise", but it's where real expression is. Fret noise: worth it. My favorite, Freddy King: Played w/ trebly tone & metal pick, creating a rain of random harmonics,"noise", but after all was said & done, his sound was unique & beautiful. As is Tuck's.

  • @lazur1 Apples and Oranges...it makes more sense for Freddie King, he's loud and aggressive and raucous, gritty and dirty. I listened to Tuck's playing again and I just can't get over the string walk, it ruins the song for me. To each his own, sounds sloppy and thin to me.

  • @m Apples & oranges as far as style, not as far as high end noise. There's a lot of expression in the highs that you can't get without noise, whether you're raucous, gritty and dirty, or any other style. For perspective, who are your favorites? If you're a George Van Eps fan, you have a case,.as he developed elaborate fingerings to avoid virtually all string noise. In most other cases, noise's masked w/rolled-off highs, or "noisy" ideas are avoided. To me, the loss is greater than the gain.

  • Greatest Hendrix cover(s) ever.

  • Great guitar playing and great vocals. Yeah!!!!!

  • never heard of these two, but they're definitely good at what they do

  • Saw these guys at the Utah Jazz & Blues Festival a few years back. Tuck is unbelievable! They received a standing ovation for this song combo. Fantastic!!

  • Damn, with his fingers too!

  • @AirHendrix91

    Well hes not gonna play the guitar with his toes you fucking mong

  • @DominicMcMulkin Alright you Mongoloid fucking retard, I was complimenting the man.

  • seeing this live... I will never forget.... they are so incredible it is almost silly... and they are so in love it is magical to see and it comes out in their playing together... so much love so great

  • quite f-ing copacetic

  • wow... great versions of these songs... tuck andress is so fluid

  • wow... great verions of these songs... tuck andress is so fluid

  • I hate his way to play, too cut

  • This is so awesome. I don't understand why anyone would vote "dislike" to this

  • Tuck is off the chart...and Patti is pure magic. Pure talent and grace.

  • 44 people are morons.

  • @8592534444 those comments are old and not remotely funny

  • @birinbirinbirin

    Amen to that!!

  • Amazing rendition..!!!!! Jimi Lives again!!

  • Amazing rendition..!!!!! Jimi Lives again!!

  • Great video.. they compliment each other perfectly. Love the singers voice!

  • Well, of course, everyone has their perspective and opinions on different things, but if there were ever two individuals destined to be together, it's these two. Chemistry is there....They make great music together.

  • ....looks as if 43 people missed the boat on this one.

  • @19FLA69 You said it. How can anybody listen to this and not be moved? I get that Jimi purists might like the original better, but this is just a beautiful cover. Why don't people understand it's OK to like both?

  • GREAT! Amazing duo.

    But...43 dont like?!?!?!

    Sometimes I don't understand...

    Long live to music from the soul!

  • Tuck and Patti have always done, by far, the most tasteful covers I've ever heard.

  • I didn't think a cover of Castles Made of Sand this good could be possible.

  • These two give me the chills.. so damn good!!

  • It was performed so well I felt apart of the audience.

  • this is great, also the version from chaka kahn is very good but isn't on youtube!!!!

  • @djmiraj23 Yes, you are right :-) Imagine, the both would jam together if they will meet each other one day on a cloud, reserved for genius :-)

  • Really smooth Hendrix tone... Amazing vocals & guitar...

  • Beautiful!!!!!

  • beauty

  • One have one word to say WOW 

  • I bought this back in 1989 and played it to my wife, who 'Hated Hendrix." Classic track and this is a very good cover.

  • i'll never get enough of this video.

  • goose bumps galore..........gorgeous!

  • His voicings at 1:38 are epic.

  • has the lirics of LITTLE WING have something relacionated with the VIETNAM WAR?

    PD:Sory for my bad english.

  • such songs can´t last long enough...actually i´d neeed it 24/7..really...

  • Jimi lives

  • @buskerbuoy Jimi who?

  • Amazing gutarist!

  • @frunk2007 You obviously don't recognize brilliance when you hear it.

  • gonna see and meet them in november in germany..

    never been more lokking forward to anaything!!

  • Holey's freakin cow.

  • Tuck is so underrated. He is probably one of the best fingerstyle guitarists of all time.

  • it's kind of sad when vids like this only have 478,000 and Justin Beiber song Baby have more than 500 Millions view...

    what a world that i live today......

  • Fantastic player , a free way to play guitar with elegance and energy , feeling . Amazing way to play with any organized technique. Great musician ! Great playn' . I wish to learn that technique on my playin' !

    From Rock Garage Boy

  • As a person who doesn't really follow Tuck and Patti, I must say this is probably the best fucking song I've ever heard on the internet or anywhere else for that matter !!

  • and i still love it

  • I love this version! Music like this usually makes the to 40 but, to 40 has a lot of trendy crap!

  • I heard Tuck and Patti as a young 16 year old fresh out of home with the world to conquer. I loved there combination then and to this day still find it hard to find a comparison. So glad to have a had uncles and aunties that had a wide range of diversity in music.

  • I stopped comparing guitarist's long, long ago. With that being said, Tuck Andress posesses the 2 most precious gifts that can be bestowed by God which are touch & timing. The guitarist's who play at this level strike a balance between expression (feeling) & knowledge (theory). Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Roy Buchanan, Danny Gatton, Eric Johnson etc. understand this balance. I believe this level of talent is rare indeed. But in the natural order of things. isn't that how it should be?

  • WOW....what an amazing duo.pure butter.Tuck is that a L-5?What strings do you use?ENCORE.

  • Doesnt come any closer to beeing as good as the original as this one!

  • I bet Jimi's mind would be blown if he knew he was still being played on the radio today, being heard by fathers and sons across the world, and being covered by such talented artists. He was such a non-egoist. I'm glad they did this as a tribute. Rest in peace Jimi

  • tuck with his epic fingers,patti with her epic vocals.. combining those two is like vanilla ice cream and root beer.. both being good,becoming better together..

  • undeniably beautifully artistic

  • Saw this live in Ft. worth in the 90's still awesome.

  • Tuck and Patti always treat Jimi with such sincere respect. This medley rendition is absolutely brilliant and as always, beautiful.

  • smokin'

  • That's what I call Reckless Precision!!! This version still continues to blow my mind. Tuck Andress rules!!!

  • one of my favourites...

  • like fine wine...they have improved with age and they were great to begin with!!!!!

  • Jimmi would be proud !!!

    Awsome !!!

  • Amazing.....

  • When you close your eyes there is such a painted picture.The stork of Tuck's

  • @dnbmilitia : Saw Tuck and Patti at the Utah Jazz and Blues Festival in the early '90's. Nobody in the crowd seemed to have heard of them (including me). They were absolutely fantastic, and received a standing ovation from the crowd (they were the only act who did).
