  • mariachi outfit? hahaha

  • If there was one thing i could say to critisize Jimi's version, was that it was too short.

    SRV solves this problem perfectly and projects this tune to my favourite of all time.

  • A beautiful thing about Stevie was that he acknowledged he was part of a family - continuing a musical legacy that began long before his time - and that he was just a part of that legacy. Very humble. An awesome musician.

  • drummer = Rob Brydon?!

  • @Riffmeister12 Chris Layton.

  • @ZeppelinRules (re:notice) finally someone with a brain connected to a spine. Well-done.

  • i love his lucky hat

  • fucking shit drummer

  • I don't know why, but I like SRV's version better than Hendrix's, which is a hard thing to say.

  • @FruitpunchFTW I love them both man, but this is a damn good version!

    Also, to all you SRV fans out there. PLEASE have a listen to my music... I have been "studying" and learning the likes of SRV and JImi since I was around 12, and I am now 20 and have my first songs up on my page! Other SRV and Jimi fans seem to be really diggin' it too!

    Please at least give it a listen! If my fellow SRV fans wont listen to my music, then who will???

  • Thanks so much for posting this- I can't get through it without tearing up! It is so beautifully done!

  • stevie ray is BOSS!

  • Is it Live ? Or is is JimI?

  • @kdlam1 Problems with both sight and hearing???

  • Alpine Valley WI, 8/27/90 Last words before he walked off stage "if i dont see you again in this life ill see you in the next, dont be late"

  • Finally, Chuck Norris is not the best at everything

  • I wasn't around when he still lived, but I kinda miss him too

  • superb...

  • the dislikes bar is as big as all of your penises!!!

  • thats what i like he can keep up with Jimi

  • thanks

  • Stevie had Jemi in his head

  • dont get much better. Dallas loves him

    

  • @elsinoreridingfool So does Rockpalast, Germany

  • I actualy cried when it came over the radio he died. What a talent. AND HE WAS ALLWAYS GIVING RESPECT TO THOSE HE IDOLIZED, EVEN IF HE COULD PLAY BETTER!!

    You never saw him on stage trying to upstage His idols. Rest in peace Stevie , you will always be missed....

  • im a die hard hendrix fan but srv blew this out the water i love this song

  • Jeeezus, is Goliath playin the bass or what? It would be like a ukulele in my hands.

  • @emilita28 thou shalt not speak down of double trouble!

  • Oh God... please, just kill me now !! How can anyone just dare to hold a guitar after this? Those who did and was maybe as good as is also dead... shit man !!

  • about your notice..''Anyone who comments on the number of dislikes will have their comment deleted" FUCK THAT! in some songs you just can't vote for dislike!!! it's a fucking rule.. this cover is objectively Fabulous..whoever dislikes this is just a stupid man..and has to be critisized! RocknRoll style stupid assholes..you dislike this cover! Fuck off! from here and don't listen again to this song..but DO NOT click DISLIKE!!

  • @georgegiannis89 Here here!! Tell it man!

  • I can't get enough of this...!!

  • A legend playing another legends song. Blues will never die.

  • Dislikes

    ? comment removed some one is upset about something

  • pause at 4:09 and look how high stevies action was.. last time i tried an action that high with 51-13 guitar strings on a massive rig like that my fingers were bleeding for a week 0,0

  • Ever tried a 13 high E string?.Well,i did,and had no feel in my finger for 2 days.Stevie had inox fingers.

  • he must have sold his sole its amazing how effortless he makes it look BEST GUITARIST EVER

  • Does anyone know where this was performed????

  • @D0C1888 Germany along the bank of the Rhine river.

  • Comment removed

  • is that a shout out to Santana at the end?!(not literally) too sikk hahah

  • thanks for mentioning about how cunts talk about the number of dislikes, i cant stand the way people meme bad jokes across youtube

    "24 people dont like wings" or some retarded shit

    fuck yourselves

  • This video had like 10 million views before it was taken down! WTF!

  • @exce11er The removed video had nearly 12,000,000 views and was the most watched Little Wing on YT. Looks like someone didn't like that fact and waited for almost 6 years to raise a copyright claim and demand its removal. However, the other uploads (e.g. this one) of the same video are still available...most ridiculous situation

  • @Jesrama1 Hmm maybe it was the # of views but I don't think so . I believe it was found because it had the name Hendrix in the video title . My own performance video of Little Wing disappeared the very same day an I got a warning notice sighting Experience Hendrix LLC as the complainant . Hey this one has 2 sides Left & Right .

  • @Geepsterr Huh? You mean Hendrix's songs when covered should not have a mentioning of his name?? Then the Experience Hendrix LLC, whatever this might be, would not protest? Probably because they wouldn't know those are Hendrix' songs???? And why such a belated reaction? I still think it’s a peculiar affair

  • @Jesrama1 Well you would think they would search the songs by their titles at least ...right ? I mean IF they are a diligent publishing company . There are other SRV Hendrix covers videos removed without writers name in the video title . Either some criteria unbeknownst to us or the publishers haven't got around to the others. This one may be next or Voodoo Chile or Manic Depression. Maybe not all administered by the same company? If they listen they'll know but peculiar indeed .

  • I've only ever disagreed with one thing George Carlin said, and that's his statement that white people can't play the blues. SRV plays with more soul than anything I've ever heard before, and his music never fails to move me.

    R.I.P Stevie, you are sorely missed.

  • perfect cover of little wing.

  • Happy new years..

  • 24 dislikes in 6 yrs i not bad best cover ever

  • STEAVIE HAD A BLACK SOUL!!!!!!

  • @vettekid407 No, he was a nice guy

  • @Jesrama1 I MEANT THE WAY HE PLAYED SO SOULFULLY HE HAD A BLACK MANS SOUL NOT A BAD SOUL

  • @vettekid407 srv's soul is WHITE! like a SHINY WHITE DIAMOND! (caps) derp.

  • @GuitarLessonsLegends WUTEVA!! BIEBER IZ GOD!!!!!

  • @vettekid407 I know what you meant and I think it's offensive to tell me my soul is inferior to that of some black man's one. BTW, Bieber is not the epitome of white men though I see he sits deep in your mind

  • Love the tone!

  • no sound on left side

  • Comment removed

  • @loulouiss switch to 240p.

    that fixed it for me. didn't come here for the video anyways.

  • @loulouiss pull the head phones a 1/4 of the way out and you get sound on both sides

  • @loulouiss But at least amazing on the right...

  • @loulouiss 240p than you hear on right and left

  • @loulouiss

    try 240p... its okay

  • @loulouiss You're wearing you headphones the wrong way.

  • @loulouiss its pissing me off.

  • @loulouiss Thats why god gave you two ears, to have the luck to still hear Stevie on the right side

  • Nice

  • to me he exceeded the creator of the song...

    ... and some stupid douche bags say blues it is not for white people

  • @andrefsferreira yeah)) and business is for jews XD

  • Chills. I get chills every time I hear this, and I've listened to this too many times to count. The crap on the radio becomes known for what it is when you hear this guy. You've got to FEEL the music.

  • this song makes my heart and soul melt and turn into a sticky puddle on the floor that is still grooving to the tune!

  • ...a phenomenal player as well. This is just opinion though.

    Then we have David Gilmour of course but I would say that John has a wider spectrum when ig comes to creativity. Gilmour is awesome and original but most of the stuff he plays is the same or has the same sound and feel to it.

  • Brilliant guitarist. May be the best blues guitar player who's ever lived.

    Great note on John Frusciante here. John has always been a huge inspiration for me and an awesome talent. He's a genius in his own right. You don't see that very often. There are loads and loads of talanted guitarists but only a few of them griws originality. Stevie Ray was such a great player and so are John. John Frusciante is simply the best out there right now, even better than Clapton which says a lot as Clapton is

  • My right ear enjoyed this.

  • @nzgroller you're left ear must be a racist

  • the ending was third stone from the sun...but still somehow reminds me of santana,dont know why...i think because of the bass line...sounds like santana to me.

  • there was another video wit hthis same song and it had 11 million views and it has been on youtube for 6 years!! IT GOT REMOVED 2 DAYS AGO FOR COPYRIGHT CLAIM BY THE EXPERIENCE

  • Comment removed

  • rip.srv.

  • This Video is Winnin'

  • How did I never see this before?!? Thanks for posting, ZeppelinRules!

  • SRV went way toooo early, wish we could've heard and seen ALOT more of him. We Love You Stevie- thanks for sharing youre talent for such a short time.

  • he changes my life.

  • @jedmaster111

    You're really upset about something and I really have no idea what.

  • Comment removed

  • i dont like a lot of the "hippie" music but jimi hendrix was on another level and this song is beyond transcendental and powerful. far too many emotions contained herein. and srv rocked it well

  • as if Hendrix wasn't experimental enough

  • He and Eric Clapton are the only two people who have ever made a guitar SING to me....

  • @leoasimms78 same , + jimi hendrix ;)

  • @leoasimms78 add Hendrix, Frusciante, and Cobain for me. I know Kurt isn't anywhere close to how technical those other guys are, but he could make his guitar scream and have some smoothly awkward phrases that just hit me like I know what he's trying to say through his guitar. And if that isn't making his guitar sing then I don't know what is.

  • how could you dislike this? Are you fucking musically ignorant?

  • I want SRV back dammit.

    I'd trade my soul for his if it meant just 1 more album

  • SRV was at the top of must my must see list when I came in to work and got the news...

  • Totally awesome, Stevie lives on with his music....live the music and the music will live in you...Stevie is in heaven Jammin with Hendrix and Gary moore. I Love Stevie <3

  • God exists! QED

  • my left ear feels neglected 

  • stevie ray vaughan used a fender strat floating trem... but the trem arm is UPSIDE DOWN!! someone tell me if this is still possible today please!!!

  • @markdocker It is but you have to go to a custom guitar shop. best shot is fender custom shop

  • SRV is what means 'the master' in my dictionary.

  • a shame for him to be gone. just imagine what he'd be like today. great player

  • thank you for uploading this magic video on my birthday (14/06)!!

  • hes soo good he makes the guitar sound like a fucking talk box at 3:25

  • love this song one of the best live i ever heard R I P S R V !

  • everyones got a right to there own opinion dikk fukk off dip shit..... but this is an absolutely beautiful song

  • @letsgobassn Hey you're moms dead in a ditch

  • He's definitely enjoying himself on stage, always makes for a great performance.

  • A 10 Star performance. I bet a lot of you didn't catch the tribute to Wes Montgomery thrown in there by Stevie.

  • Simply amazing man! Nice post!

  • Really poor sound quality

  • Big foot plays bass?

  • every time i hear SRV playing this i have goosebumps

  • good version but the audio only works in one ear for me.. get it sorted :)

  • some of the comments on the people who hit the dislike button are funny...it's only a comment take a chill pill and listen to SRV play Little Wing live...u uploaded it, so harsh man, for such a chill song, no offense but u sound like comment nazi...so delete my comment cuz i'm so chill i dont even care ZeppelinRules

  • Stevie Ray is the only person who could ever cover Jimi and do him justice.

  • @orjysean Frusciante

  • @orjysean dont forget john frusciante my friend, most original and talented guitar player living

  • @Jangofat1

    John Frusciante is the only person who could cover Stevie and do him justice... at least in my opinion.

    Stevie, Jimi, John....Greatest guitarist to walk the earth.

  • @orjysean outdo him lol

  • @orjysean what about justin bieber ;)

  • @iraniandrummer97 Oh yea! I forgot the Biebs!

  • To me, after Hendrix he was the most grateful guitar player that I never heard before! Play Into the skies, Stevie.

  • Looks like Germany?

  • SRV why you have took this fucking helicopter !

  • dude howd you get the name ZeppelinRules. thats killer. and this is the greatest vid ever.. SRV is rediculous!

  • He didn't die, he just went home

  • where was it???

  • AGAIN! AGAIN!

  • wow great player and the best looking strat EVER.

  • @DJPeteJames Fucking sell it you lazy fag.

  • change quality to 240p if you only have sound in one speaker.

  • i would have loved to be in the crowd!!!!

  • the person who directed this video should be punched in the nuts. i wanted to see stevie wail on the guitar, but half of the video is of the crowd or the fucking river near the show. FUCK YOU DIRECTOR!

  • @TheeMikeHoncho thay did not know shit back then did thay/

  • @TheeMikeHoncho

    Yeah, but it gets boring just looking at mainly one person, don't you think?

  • This is awesome. Could someone upload this appearance in stereo?

  • @Khaddar just change tha quality to 240p :)

  • always loved his take on any Hendrix song(said the guy from Seattle). This one sends me out of body!

  • 768+ people like Stevie Ray Vaughan

  • @DJPeteJames

    would we have Stevie Ray Vaughan to learn by if he just threw his guitar away because it was hard.

    you can do what you want. but im telling you. in the end....learning any instrument will help you get through life in a matter of ways.

  • Oh My God! He's got bigger hand than my... nevermind. Great!

  • @dziaba0303 he even uses size .013 strings.. wow srv!:)

  • @jazzclubbb His strings were just a bit heavier than the usual rock strings and tuned down a half step : much lighter than a regular set of 13's He used medium light middle 4 strings but heavy high and low E .

  • Anyone who comments on the number of dislikes will have their comment deleted. It's time someone took a stand on this nonsense.  It isn't funny, original, or clever.

  • @ZeppelinRules dude im so glad im fucking so tired of that shit to it makes me rage so hard lol

  • @ZeppelinRules thank you

  • @ZeppelinRules 18 people like to have audio in both ears.

  • @ZeppelinRules stevie they took u the big guy wanted you to play for him only you left us these little bits tytyty we miss and love you wait well all be there eventually

  • @ZeppelinRules it's funny, unique to each video and you're not clever enough to understand this

  • @jedrzejku you are just childish

  • Comment removed

  • @ZeppelinRules 22 people don't know music at all

  • @ZeppelinRules You commented on it first.

  • @ZeppelinRules about god damn fucking time. Well said.

  • @ZeppelinRules 22 idiots. 1 wound up zeppelin fan.

  • @ZeppelinRules you are a hero

  • @ZeppelinRules

    yeah.. good point, really

  • The only one who covered it properly.

    When Stevie Ray decided something was worth covering, by God, he COVERED it - and he did it with so much love and respect for Jimi.

    Jimi was probably laughing his ass off up there and pointing down to SRV, and telling everyone, "THAT's how you're supposed to do it!"

  • I hate when a video stops midway through to buffer. Then I start it over just to capture the real experience of listening to this song.

  • @DJPeteJames EVERY guitar player at one time or another has thrown their guitar down and walked away, BUT, the players that have blown you away are the ones who picked it back up and never gave up. I've been playing for 20 years and I still think I suck, but when other people watch me play they tell me I'm amazing. Just keep plucking away Bro, if you really love it and want it it'll come to you, but I can tell you this: If you quit, you'll NEVER be good + you'll look in 20 years w/ regret!!

  • This is the Man that God had givin such a Uniqe Colorful Soul of Music that noone will ever or even come close to being even a shadow amongst this Shining Star of Remarkable Blues Legend!You will Forever and Always be in Our minds,Our Hearts!Sad n that you were takin from Us at such an early age of Yourself and of Us!We know You're sittin at those Pearly Gates Playin for AlMighty God Himself but with a new fangled guitar Shinin with ever pluck of the 24K Strings that shine Brightly as You did!!!
