I hear you, late 90’s as a middle school student found a scratched up cd of “the sky is crying” and something about track 9 ( if I remember correctly) Studio version of Little Wing. Made me inspired to play guitar, made me the person that I am today. I would give anything to see Hendrix or Even Stevie Ray Vaughan in concert.
I feel the same way about Little Wing, my favorite since I heard Jimi's back in '68, was it? True love ever since. Hendrix was a genius at composition. Both he and SRV were Masters at their craft. ☮️ to all
@@mikejaan66 I agree. I like to think that in Jimi's original version, there is barely any soloing. The vibe of the song is entirely different, more about good vibes with a girl in a cool city. But what is particularly striking about this song is the chord progression, and the way the minor pentatonic can be phrased over the different chords. I like to think this is what Stevie found captivating about this song, and became obsessed with it, laying down his version of Little Wing. Truly epic, both are giants and this song is so beautiful in so many ways. RIP fellas.
Literally made me cry, with joy !!! Been a while since I have been able to get me some you tube coming back from a dry spell peace everyone, happiest of holidays to all !!!!
He is a voodoochild stand up next to a mountain knock it down with the edge of my hand pickup all the pieces dpntbelate .. . .be layet be layt dont be ...
Watching this man play guitar is like seeing a supernatural power come to life in front of you. He's a force of nature, a tidal wave of emotion, a glimpse beyond the veil. Magic performed with mundane instruments. Truly one of the Legendary Greats of all time.
ABSOLUTELY! I'm a Texas native & we are PROUD of our own! For those of u that never got to see him play, well, u missed an AWESOME show! Jimi would've been proud to see Stevie Ray do justice to some of his music! @ TRULY incredible MASTER guitar players...taken way too soon, but never forgotten!
You are right on, I was thinking that but did not know how to put it into words. Got to see Chris Layton last year and could feel the energy of Stevie all around me.
1st time I saw Stevie Ray I was a senior in high school. He was at a small club in Houston , Tx. called Fitzgeralds. I didn't know who he was. He absolutely shredded ! Loved him ever since!
Had the very distinct pleasure to Stevie Ray Vaughan in 1985 when I was just 18 years old the man was phenomenal and blew me away with his incredible playing I was just about 20 feet away and at the end of the concert I managed to get the drumsticks that Chris Layton had used all night long and as a drummer myself that was a big deal and I still have them to this day at 51 years old nobody will ever top Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble I cried the day the man died!! I couldn't believe we had just lost another great musician I was sad for quite some time after that and still get emotional watching him play and thinking back to that day when I was a young man of 18 watching a phenomenal guitar player blow us all away there will never be another Stevie rest in peace
I know that this sounds really gay but John Mayer is approaching this status you speak of especially now that he's playing with Bobby wier in dead and company. I was blown away by his 2017 Wrigley field show you should check it out 2nd night of those 2 shows
Beato chi c'era.. beati voi.... Noi stiamo crescendo con questi rapper , trapper . Io , sono un musicista e in quanto tale amo tutta la musica. Ma ,il rapper il Trapper .... Ma come siamo potuti finire così. Da Steve Ray Vaughan,Gary Moore, AC/DC , Steve Vai,Eric Clapton,Senza parlare di quella prima Django Reinhardt,Arita Franklin, Chet Baker, Billy Holiday, Fitzgerald e una miriade di altri grandi musicisti, artisti tutto tondo.... In Italia non avevano certo Steve Ray Vaughan,ma avevamo De André,Gaber , Rino ,Mina , ...... qualcuno di più grande di me,può spiegarmi come cazzo sia potuto accadere una cosa simile... Solitamente il mondo, soprattutto l'arte tende a crescere,ad andare avanti...ma in Italia e anche negli Stati Uniti stiamo veramente uccidendo la musica come Blues,Jazz ....( Il classico è un mondo a se ). ? Ancora grazie. Riposa in pace Steve Ray Vaughan
Still missed. Looking forward to sitting with on your porch in the next life SRV and seeing you do this one on one. BB King did it for me in this one for $20. Blues are perfection to my ears.
12ealDeal fucking bending those 13’s like nothing. 13’s are like fucking cables the stamina of his hands is absolutely untouchable. He would wear the skin off his fingertips and superglue the tips. FACT!!!!!
Because he doesn't know how to read music, so he coukd create his sound by his own ear, that way its more unique to you, im personally trying to do that
I've seen hendricks do it a hundred times on bootlegs. Also remember hedrick sang this song and stevie doesn't. Hence stevie's sound would be a lot different if he had never heard jim.
I first started listening to this and SRV music when I was a teen-10 plus years later and I still cry happy tears as I watch and listen to this music magician! I LOVE YOU STEVIE!!!
Heard solo many attempts at this song only SRV does the song justice, would have been mind blowing to hear and see Jimi and stevie do little wing together 😎😵😋
Usually, when i watch Stevie's videos I don't mind looking at his guitar playing, even though I'am a guitarist by myself, i just tend to look at his face expressions - that's what makes my day and my mood.
High school in the 70s Sydney Australia, we missed Hendrix so much and then came a god of the same spirt. RIP Jimmi and Stevie, you filled our hearts and minds, love you.
Stevie was more than just a human being. I personally believe he was a special kind of spirit. Maybe he was so old and wise that he can only be born into greatness. We'll never know.
Stevie's version of Little Wing has become my go to version ever since I first heard it in the 90's. He cannot be touched when it came to playing, from Rock, to Country and the Blues, he had it all!! Can you imagine what he would have been doing now??
I found this tonight and it has '3rd Stone From The Sun' too. Growing up I never liked Blues even though I grew up in Chicago. I liked happy music, jamming rock, Jazz, Jazz Fusion particularly, and Soul. I figured the world was sad enough without whining around. The exception was BB King because he was so happy and sweet sounding and any Blues that was happy or humorous (like Buddy Guy) and I was the same way with Country. I loved all the countrty rock and occasional 'hit' if it was deep and liked Bluegrass because it was so musical. I remember hearing shitty can't-stand-him mope David Bowie and the guitar jumped out of songs on 'Let's Dance' and I said-"That's so out of place in that stupid song". I was in CO Springs living in '85 and SRV came to town and was on the radio with a DJ. He played a short live version of 'Soul To Soul' and I realized how good he was but still did not go see him because it sounded kind of rock-a-billy in that studio jam. At that same exact time Randy Hansen came with his 3 hour tribute to Jimi Hendrix and he played every song perfect so well I went to both shows 2 nights in a row. Somehow I was blocked/attacked to not know how good SRV was-and I knew almost everyone. Then I heard 'Couldn't Stand The Weather' one night and realized he was Carlos/Jeff/Jimi caliber. He worked his way up to being my 2nd favorite after Carlos and I only saw him once. The whole band was in a bad mood the day I saw them, the playing flawless and powerful but everyone was screaming for 'Voodoo Chile' and on that Live Alive Tour he was playing 'Superstition' instead and he seemed irritated. Now as an Exorcist of 27 years I can see the demons/mean-ness in the guys and it's funny because they are such good nice men-much more so after they got sober. Coke is the bad one-Fr. Corapi talks about watching a Satanic Priest curse all the coke arriving off ships one time. It's a bad spiritual drug, like most but the worst it seems. It can turn even a sweet child-like man mean. Satan was after SRV, because like Jimi and Carlos he realized his music could heal people and he made that his mission as did Jimi right at the end. I could have gone to his last show but Carlos was in town 2 days later and SRV toured almost non-stop. I met Carlos that night ,his 1st after Stevie died and he never smiled, and played a flawless show but he was so bummed he said-"I just want to go home and be with my family". No one could stand it that SRV died. And now Jeff murdered by the Jabs. Carlos-nearly killed but he prays hard....
I saw him in Newport News VA about 1985 in an old boat house , standing room only fricking awesome git a few pics 1 with playing guitar behind his back there is & will never b anyone like him
Stevie Ray went quasar that day. This is the best performance I've ever heard of this two-piece combo. He was certainly in the zone. How he got there? Atmosphere. Thanks so much for posting & keeping it up. It lifts me higher each time I hear it; and I love to see where he was that day. It was the perfect professional frame for him, I think. Well done for all the people involved in making him feel well supported and appreciated so he could lift off into this beautiful rendition of such a lovely set. Thanks again. I wish I had been there that day...wow! what vibes connected there and then. You can see it on his face, channeling.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a masterclass guitarist. He also had the mysterious, intellectual way that Hendrix had. However, he didn't write this song, or voodoo chile, or The Wind Cries Mary. No one can ever own Henxrix. He is, and always will be, the man who every guitarist/singer tries to work their way up to. Any of them will tell you that Jimi is what they all strive to become, even Stevie Ray Vaughan said he just tries to continue the legacy of Hendrix best that he can.
He was so talented beautiful and humble and it took me years to hear or see him again without crying the only person to touch my soul with his music it still hurts but feels so right in my heart ❤️ rip beautiful Stevie you are loved and missed ❤
Don;t come here and bring up other people's names comparing them with Stevie. There is no comparison they are different people. Stevie sweeps them under the rug, Stevie swept them all under the rug.
Snakeweirdo Anyone who says that person can play faster and has better technique, doesn't know what they are talking about. Sick of these new age children that think faster playing beats chops. Chops win every time hands down.
Something is happening here but you don't know what Stevie is certainly one of the greats, but I dont think he overshadows Hendrix. I believe them to be equally godly guitarists, yet in different ways. I prefer Hendrix, but I can see why people might like SRV more. The two really are in a league of their own
steve was a friend , we pissed in the same snow bank at 6 years old , i was here drunk as a mofo THIS MAN WAS A GIANT!!! so were all the ppl that where on that flight that day, I miss u brothers
Jimi Hendrix has just entered the conversation and is coughing loudly. Then says what the fuck are you on about?. If SRV was a live he would be telling you that Jimi is THE guitar god!. This is like all other altoists trying to play like Charlie Parker. Great imitiation, but not the real thing, just a bit longer lived.
Jeff williams, my instructor in the HUGE lies capitol of Toledo, OH… to me was every bit of souls, technicality etc.. as SRV. That said, i was a kid and are usually,”formatted” to what we listen to/learn at young age. Don’t get me wrong, he basically did SRV.. but it blew my effin mind!
Oak fukin cliff is were is it at talent beauty and everything u dream of can happen here in OAk CLIFF. This is SRV hometown and mines too. So long live this place that made such an iconic figure like SRV was and still is cause I pass by his home every day. And in soul he still resides in OAK CLIFF.
Taught jimi you kidding. I have many version bootlegs of Jimmy playing this and remember Jimmy sang this.He just did do it as the instrumental. I saw Stephen Stevie ray vaugh and concert.He was extremely good blues guitars. Hendrix was a revolutionary created. Sounds was a genius. Which Stevie will never be. Even if he can play some of Jimmy stuff better, he'll never be Jimmy.He will never create what jimmy did. Jimmy changed the way the approach to the guitar. Jimmy changed guitar in less than four years. He copied Jimmy half the stuff that he does. Was Jimmy did 20 years before he did it.
I HATE it when people compare SRV to Hendrix. They are both amazing but for different reasons. SRV was technically amazing where as Jimi was an innovator
Jimi made many mistakes, but is one of the greatest guitar innovators no doubt! If not the greatest, but SRV never lost his way on the neck- Eric Clapton honestly in terms of technical ability there's no question of who was a better axe man so it's just your preference! I personally grew up with Jimi Hendrix but SRV is now my favorite guitar player of all time no question!!!
they were both 'technically' amazing. Hendrix's guitar playing was insanely tight and far more rhythmic than what SRV could do imo. They were both very talented, but Hendrix definitely was the best we've ever had in rock music
I'm sitting here pissed that he's gone and I never got to see him play live. God kept him for himself, hopefully he'll still be rocking in Heaven if I ever get there. And yes there are now 126 people that are sonically handicapped and gave this a thumbs down... maybe the mouse slipped.
Ruben Hernandez Jimi would have loved him not because of the guitar playing, but because they were both humble and modest. They spoke highly of others, had kind words to say, and they were never short of giving credit to others and showing gratitude. Jimi and SRV both took their music more on a spiritual level and a means of expression. "Music has become really important now. It's helped me to open up more and take a chance on loving people. Music is a good reason to care. It's just a vehicle though. It's a way to try and give somebody something that you feel." SRV
Really? That's crazy I grew up with Jimi Hendrix has my favorite guitarist and little wing never made me cry at all!!! But when I first heard Stevie Ray Vaughan's version of little wing it made me cry!!!! It still does!!! Jimmy was a great innovator and he played awesome guitar but Stevie Ray Vaughan's playing is out of this world Supernatural!!! Jimmi's mistakes on the guitar made him human "SRV never lost his way on the neck"- Eric Clapton
SRV's greatest studio recorded song of his severely shortened career. Tears and goosebumps every time I listen to it. When he doesn't have to supply vocals he really seems to take it to another level.
He left too soon. I hop he, Jimi Hendrix, Paul Goddard, Keith Moon, Bon Scott, Jim Morison, and Janis Joplin form a great band if there is a heaven and their new music is played 24/7 at pearly gate's entrance.
I heard that he didn't want to get on the helicopter.He had some strange feeling or something like that but eventually he got on it and.....we all know the result :(
See what happens when one of the best guitar players ever channels one of the best guitar players, EVER!??! Yes sir, folks, that kind of flow, that kind of talent, doesn't come around every day. But one of the glories of our technological age is we all get to share in that experience. It's no longer like a sun-burst on a cloudy day; here and gone forever. It's no longer an ethereal moment experienced by the fortunate few who hear it at the time. Nope...now we can all carry it with us for as long as our tech allows. Ain't it great? RIP Sir Stevie Ray of the Vaughn clan. Rest In Peace. John~ American Net'Zen
But he did not create it.He is coping jimI. Stevie rayvon isn't revolutionary?He didn't change music he's not a genius. He's a superb guitarist. I have 50 to a 100 different bootlegs.That show jimmy playing these songs as good , if not better. Remember? Stevie raveyvan had about another ten years to perfect them. Is it wasn't for Jimmy Stevie.Very bond wouldn't be the same. He plays jimmy song superb but he is not jimmy and he's not a genius and he never will be
i heard Clapton and Hendrix do this song and i think stevie done it better then both of them i don't think he even hit the hight of his talent before he was taken way too soon
Stevie Ray makes Clapton look like a one armed man at a clapping contest. Like a Chevy Chevette in a drag race. Please, in the future try to no mention them both in the same sentence.
Sometimes it is still hard to see or here him , i am 56 old gray and bitter,but my already broke heart run by a battery,BREAKS, He was and still one of the GREATS went to soon like many others. Had a dream one night in an old empty wearhouse heard music comeing from a room in the back went and looked ---yes it was Stevie just setting noodlen around said I want to show you something you have not heard before. I said Stevie you are dead.he said thats why you ve never heard it. I still play it. to the walls in my room. yours truly still old gray little less bitter. Donna s hubby DENNIS ELLIS last name first first name last L.S.D.
There's something going on between Stevie and his guitar. He sneered at it then took it to the wall. It tried to get back at him and the guitar tech came out and fixed it.
what I wouldn't give to have been alive during this man's time.. I love SRV's music every bit as much as I love the Blues itself.. this song may be a bit less "bluesy" than some of his other music, but it sure captures how influenced by Hendrix SRV really was.. I hope to someday be every bit as good as SRV was and to take it all to the next level.. God Bless all Bluesmen and fans, living and dead.. May the Lord see to everyone having a safe 2015..
One of the only filmed clips of SRV playing Llittle wing, and its all jacked up with awful camera work...I am one of many fans, who also play guitar that complain about this very thing, it serves no purpose to capture anything but the talent that is performing. There is no cinematography points for panning to watch the crowd or anything else, it is about the music and one of the greatest guitarists of our time. There needs to be a school for directors and cameramen to get this into their heads, and I have stated this on other posts as well, its a poor lack of awareness, on so many levels. We are the fans buying the dvd's and watching the material, it should be filmed with better integrity, just my two cents on it
I get showing some of the ambiance of he concert, once in awhile. But if you study this great and see some of his other vids, and even other great guitarists, they do the same thing. It's a reflection of not understanding who they are filming. I can't be the only person annoyed by it. Not furious mind you, just more like, what is up with this process??
Come on there's just like 5% of the footage that capture others things, sound like a good deal to me, always better than just the sound, SRV must be the most (decent quality) filmed guitarist at his time, there's a bunch of video where you can clearly see his fretboard.
Klapeful All we are saying is that we wish that whoever edited the video originally would have understood that keeping the camera on Stevie and his fretboard as opposed to super wide angled shots of the crowd or some boat would have been much better from a SRV fans perspective. I know it's nitpicking but it's just a minor irritation. Trust me, I am very glad that this video of SRV exists at all. Also I have watched many of his performances here on UA-cam and always like it when we get to see his guitar playing up close. At the end of the day it's good that all of us fans get to experience a glimpse of the man's talent on UA-cam regardless.
Thank goodness for that, it's just not SRV though, if you don't start talking about it and hopefully changing the mindset of what to focus on during a guitar performance, it will always be the same ole crap. There are many many vids like this, even with today with current guitarists being filmed in a very silly way. Directors and producers, and the cameramen need to understand this point. Not everyone has to agree with me, but I would venture to say I would have more fans saying the same thing for their guitar idols.

THE ONLY SONG EVER WRITTEN THAT SHOULD NEVER END.........
Fuckin a
A Beautiful song.....
Sums it up perfectly
The 1st time i heard SRV play Little Wing i got goose bumps and thanks to his insane talent 24 years later i still do.

Made me inspired to play guitar, made me the person that I am today. I would give anything to see Hendrix or Even Stevie Ray Vaughan in concert.
I think he played it better then Jimi 😮

its hard to say if he is top 2 or 3 but he is still looking good for number one.
He makes the guitar sing better and with more soul than a person. It's nothing short of magic.
Literally made me cry, with joy !!! Been a while since I have been able to get me some you tube coming back from a dry spell peace everyone, happiest of holidays to all !!!!

Apparently 255 dead people watched this...
Back to my roots..
ABSOLUTELY! I'm a Texas native & we are PROUD of our own!
For those of u that never got to see him play, well, u missed an AWESOME show! Jimi would've been proud to see Stevie Ray do justice to some of his music! @ TRULY incredible MASTER guitar players...taken way too soon, but never forgotten!
I believe SRV was an open channel that a force greater than us used to communicate through.
T.J. Ash I believe you are correct....S R V a free bird indeed
T.J. Ash - I also believe you are correct

You are right on, I was thinking that but did not know how to put it into words. Got to see Chris Layton last year and could feel the energy of Stevie all around me.
Stevie even said the soul moves on. Stevie found God and God found Stevie Ray Vaughan and was probably impressed with that strat work.

Riposa in pace Steve Ray Vaughan
This has in the last month become my hands down favorite song. So God damn beautiful.
YES PARKER, you have to a pretty cool person to make that decision and I couldn’t agree FKYN more. Stevie Ray will always be my main man❤
One of the best statements I have ever read. Perfectly summed up.
Finally going into the R&R Hall of fame! It is about time!
I wonder who is the lucky person that's gonna induct Stevie...
Still missed. Looking forward to sitting with on your porch in the next life SRV and seeing you do this one on one. BB King did it for me in this one for $20. Blues are perfection to my ears.
SRV's vibrato is untouchable.
Gary Moore's vibrato could hang.
Albin Hovde RIP BB King
+Bandin6385 Gary Moore's vibrato was something else...

Because he doesn't know how to read music, so he coukd create his sound by his own ear, that way its more unique to you, im personally trying to do that
that was sick man i miss that music
I'm a life long good ol boy from TEXAS, in my opinion SRV is teaching Jimi Hendrix how to play this song. Best guitarist there ever was or will be
I've seen hendricks do it a hundred times on bootlegs.
Also remember hedrick sang this song and stevie doesn't.
Hence stevie's sound would be a lot different if he had never heard jim.
best cover of any song ever. life long Hendrix fan.
It's striking how smooth this guys playing was. SRV was a beast!
Loved Stevie so much,devastated when he dies in a helicopter crash.Miss him and all the music he could of made.Younger than me ....35 ...damn shame.
Amazing how he filled out 15 minutes with such grace and talent.
I first started listening to this and SRV music when I was a teen-10 plus years later and I still cry happy tears as I watch and listen to this music magician! I LOVE YOU STEVIE!!!
I just come back to this video over and over again. It never drains out.
no joke me too. i could listen to this melody 24/7. I just wish there were more jams like this played by Jimi.
Heard solo many attempts at this song only SRV does the song justice, would have been mind blowing to hear and see Jimi and stevie do little wing together 😎😵😋
This may not really be in high definition, but srv is the definition of what a guitarist desires to be!
Good Soul.... Good Man... He Sang A Song To Me In Banff...Loads of Love xoxo
Usually, when i watch Stevie's videos I don't mind looking at his guitar playing, even though I'am a guitarist by myself, i just tend to look at his face expressions - that's what makes my day and my mood.
it's like pooping and cumming.
+Serge Blake I agree. He is "fun" to watch. What a wasted talent when he died too soon.
Coked out and whiskeyed six minute long SRV Little Wing for the win!
Wow! I can see BOTH the pixels in this video. Such HD!
This is old VHS footage from the 80s.
This was HD in the 80's.
But they're two highly defined pixels.. haha.
Hank Hill Shouldn't you be commenting on Rob Chapmans channel
Hank Hill to bad it's a cover
SRV giving this lucky crowd some modern day Hendrix.....WOW.
High school in the 70s Sydney Australia, we missed Hendrix so much and then came a god of the same spirt.
RIP Jimmi and Stevie, you filled our hearts and minds, love you.
+leon dyson The only guy who could come close to the sound of Jimi. Incredible.
wow HD has come a long way
Stevie was more than just a human being. I personally believe he was a special kind of spirit. Maybe he was so old and wise that he can only be born into greatness. We'll never know.
On the other side we b jammin
thats some hippie shit hahaha
bobbyfan418
bobbyfan418 he was reborn in John Mayer
Negative ghost rider. Mayer is good, but not SRV good. Then again, who really is?
Don't be Haters. SRV is among the greatest of our time.
Hell yes SRV IS THE BEST OF THE BEST. Point me to the haters, I’ll have to see what that’s all about, they must be from another planet 🌎

Satan was after SRV, because like Jimi and Carlos he realized his music could heal people and he made that his mission as did Jimi right at the end. I could have gone to his last show but Carlos was in town 2 days later and SRV toured almost non-stop. I met Carlos that night ,his 1st after Stevie died and he never smiled, and played a flawless show but he was so bummed he said-"I just want to go home and be with my family". No one could stand it that SRV died. And now Jeff murdered by the Jabs. Carlos-nearly killed but he prays hard....
he was just something else! what a talent!
THIS IS WHAT YOU TUBE IS FOR. LIKE I WAS THERE. GREAT PHOTOGRAPHY WITH THE BEST MUSICIANS
Okay!!... This just blew my frinkin mind, and made my jaw drop to the ground!!!!!!... Damn!!!!😳🎸😳... Frinkin amazing !👏🏻
Mary Honosky the original (srv cover) blows this one away so much that I'm shocked he would destroy it like he did...
I saw him in Newport News VA about 1985 in an old boat house , standing room only fricking awesome
git a few pics 1 with playing guitar behind his back
there is & will never b anyone like him
Stevie Ray went quasar that day. This is the best performance I've ever heard of this two-piece combo. He was certainly in the zone. How he got there? Atmosphere. Thanks so much for posting & keeping it up. It lifts me higher each time I hear it; and I love to see where he was that day. It was the perfect professional frame for him, I think. Well done for all the people involved in making him feel well supported and appreciated so he could lift off into this beautiful rendition of such a lovely set. Thanks again. I wish I had been there that day...wow! what vibes connected there and then. You can see it on his face, channeling.
SRV, Hendrix, Rory g and others have/had a gift. They could do things with a guitar that was amazing. I'm always in awe.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a masterclass guitarist. He also had the mysterious, intellectual way that Hendrix had. However, he didn't write this song, or voodoo chile, or The Wind Cries Mary. No one can ever own Henxrix. He is, and always will be, the man who every guitarist/singer tries to work their way up to. Any of them will tell you that Jimi is what they all strive to become, even Stevie Ray Vaughan said he just tries to continue the legacy of Hendrix best that he can.
He was so talented beautiful and humble and it took me years to hear or see him again without crying the only person to touch my soul with his music it still hurts but feels so right in my heart ❤️ rip beautiful Stevie you are loved and missed ❤
It's funny because whenever I hear little wing I always feel I need some very large cargo boats to look at to give it some meaningful context.
I read your comment at the same time that the ship appeared, laughed.
Bang Fish It just seemed so... well something
Rik Morgan I now cry everytime i see a cargo ship
Hahaha, nice. :)
+ Sea Level Cain And they don't even have to stop, they just keep on sailing.
most difficult and best version ever so yeah is the highest definition of this song
I don't understand why anyone would thumb this down?
Because it is gay, just like you
Haha I really affected you and your reality didn't I?? haha loser.
No chance, my reality is AWESOME
i leave my mind when i listen to this band play, lets not forget the other two guys!!!
Don;t come here and bring up other people's names comparing them with Stevie. There is no comparison they are different people. Stevie sweeps them under the rug, Stevie swept them all under the rug.
Yes sir he is awesome!
He sweeps all other Hendrix impersonators under the rug. That's for sure.
Snakeweirdo Anyone who says that person can play faster and has better technique, doesn't know what they are talking about. Sick of these new age children that think faster playing beats chops. Chops win every time hands down.
Something is happening here but you don't know what Stevie is certainly one of the greats, but I dont think he overshadows Hendrix. I believe them to be equally godly guitarists, yet in different ways. I prefer Hendrix, but I can see why people might like SRV more. The two really are in a league of their own
I'm not comparing,you can't deny that Jimmy Hendrix is his inspiration...
steve was a friend , we pissed in the same snow bank at 6 years old , i was here drunk as a mofo THIS MAN WAS A GIANT!!! so were all the ppl that where on that flight that day, I miss u brothers
Lots of guitar players play "Little Wing", but none of em' do it like Stevie did
Steve Vai version is also good, but indeed, we cannot compare them. We cannot compare any guitarist to SRV 🎸✨
We should never compare but... Eric Gales' one is pretty fire too!
Jimi Hendrix has just entered the conversation and is coughing loudly. Then says what the fuck are you on about?. If SRV was a live he would be telling you that Jimi is THE guitar god!. This is like all other altoists trying to play like Charlie Parker. Great imitiation, but not the real thing, just a bit longer lived.
Jeff williams, my instructor in the HUGE lies capitol of Toledo, OH… to me was every bit of souls, technicality etc.. as SRV. That said, i was a kid and are usually,”formatted” to what we listen to/learn at young age.
Don’t get me wrong, he basically did SRV.. but it blew my effin mind!
Jiimi and Stevie make to cry the angels in paradise too
...legend says, many women asked SRV to treat them like he treats his guitar...
Strip them down to the wood and bend them with three fingers?
Finger them until they're screaming with several thousand people watching?
he jacked it up about 4 minutes or so one of my fav parts too
Oak fukin cliff is were is it at talent beauty and everything u dream of can happen here in OAk CLIFF. This is SRV hometown and mines too. So long live this place that made such an iconic figure like SRV was and still is cause I pass by his home every day. And in soul he still resides in OAK CLIFF.
R.I.P SRV!!...ETERNAL JAMMING WITH HENDRIX NOW!!!
HE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD PLAY HENDRIX!!!!!
Matt Powell plays Jimi
listen to roy Buchanan cover it
im sorry but roy is nowhere near the level of SRV....
amen to that
+Ed Craig lol
Im here just to say hi ,and enjoy this masterpiece
Sensational. What an amazing musician.
OMG, what passion- the only thing better than Jimmie is SRV playing his tunes...cheers me up every time..........
Simple THE BEST EVER! The Great SRV!
Stevie took a Hendrix song out to the universe, best rendition i ever heard sad to say but he could have taught Jimi a few things RIP SRV
Taught jimi you kidding.
I have many version bootlegs of Jimmy playing this and remember Jimmy sang this.He just did do it as the instrumental.
I saw Stephen Stevie ray vaugh and concert.He was extremely good blues guitars.
Hendrix was a revolutionary created. Sounds was a genius. Which Stevie will never be.
Even if he can play some of Jimmy stuff better, he'll never be Jimmy.He will never create what jimmy did.
Jimmy changed the way the approach to the guitar.
Jimmy changed guitar in less than four years.
He copied Jimmy half the stuff that he does. Was Jimmy did 20 years before he did it.
I HATE it when people compare SRV to Hendrix. They are both amazing but for different reasons. SRV was technically amazing where as Jimi was an innovator
Yeah but Jimi was possessed.
Stevie was all natural.
You must be kidding. He's litearlly channelling a lot of Hendrix in this performance. He plays third stone from the sun.
Jimi made many mistakes, but is one of the greatest guitar innovators no doubt! If not the greatest, but SRV never lost his way on the neck- Eric Clapton honestly in terms of technical ability there's no question of who was a better axe man so it's just your preference! I personally grew up with Jimi Hendrix but SRV is now my favorite guitar player of all time no question!!!
@@BurnoutLane not possessed, but blessed. Like many others, Stevie had a real gift to give.
they were both 'technically' amazing. Hendrix's guitar playing was insanely tight and far more rhythmic than what SRV could do imo. They were both very talented, but Hendrix definitely was the best we've ever had in rock music
I'm sitting here pissed that he's gone and I never got to see him play live. God kept him for himself, hopefully he'll still be rocking in Heaven if I ever get there. And yes there are now 126 people that are sonically handicapped and gave this a thumbs down... maybe the mouse slipped.
He makes it look easy. He was so great.
He is the best guitarest we will ever have. God rest his beautiful soul.
Nice... The subtitle reads Lenny at one point... hahaha... Miss you Stevie
Wow....all the folks still commenting on his performance(s) like it was new.....32 years later...that's R&R.
Actually sometimes prefer to hear covers of this song because I very often want to cry when I hear Jimi's.
AWESOME WHAT A GUITARIST JIMMY WOULD HAVE LOVED HIM IN MY OPINION
Ruben Hernandez
Jimi would have loved him not because of the guitar playing, but because they were both humble and modest. They spoke highly of others, had kind words to say, and they were never short of giving credit to others and showing gratitude.
Jimi and SRV both took their music more on a spiritual level and a means of expression.
"Music has become really important now. It's helped me to open up more and take a chance on loving people. Music is a good reason to care. It's just a vehicle though. It's a way to try and give somebody something that you feel." SRV
Really? That's crazy I grew up with Jimi Hendrix has my favorite guitarist and little wing never made me cry at all!!! But when I first heard Stevie Ray Vaughan's version of little wing it made me cry!!!! It still does!!! Jimmy was a great innovator and he played awesome guitar but Stevie Ray Vaughan's playing is out of this world Supernatural!!! Jimmi's mistakes on the guitar made him human "SRV never lost his way on the neck"- Eric Clapton
Rest in Peace Stevie. A freaking helicopter crash robbed us of another of the truly greats. Thanks for all the spectacular music you left behind.
thank you and hats off to all those that served and still serve the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Got to see Stevie in OKC not to long before his passing. Thanks for coming Stevie, we love and miss you. Thanks for this post, over the top love it.
00:00 Little wing + 06:35 third stone from the sun .
I can clearly hear bits/pieces from the end of "Castles made of sand" in between the two from 06:18 onwards.
the_chiefe71 holy mother of god yesss! Stevie mixed it in their! Damn i didnt even know that
man... I have no words....wow!
3:20 gave me chills.
Every single time.
MetalWonderWombat ff
Sorry, that was a typo.
To good 👍 love it...Rajesh Patel
High definition? Where?
***** I've seen more pixels in Japanese pornos
scareneb lol
scareneb BWAHAHAAHAAAHHHHH!!!!!!
John Doe ya, there's a gorgeous red tab on the gear now. and each of the 2 recorded pixels is stretched 360 times :D
***** Shut your eyes. Insert your ear buds deep and crank it. You should find what you are looking for.
SRV's greatest studio recorded song of his severely shortened career. Tears and goosebumps every time I listen to it. When he doesn't have to supply vocals he really seems to take it to another level.
He left too soon. I hop he, Jimi Hendrix, Paul Goddard, Keith Moon, Bon Scott, Jim Morison, and Janis Joplin form a great band if there is a heaven and their new music is played 24/7 at pearly gate's entrance.
Who is Paul Goddard?
Jonathan Wichtendahl that’s too much action for anyone’s ears... no way.
I do have a 2.0, but I use it when I play bass. Thanks for the help! MUCH appreciated.
Helicopters and Porsches, if I ever become some celeb I'm staying away from both.
Da A he shouldn't have got on that helicopter :(
I heard that he didn't want to get on the helicopter.He had some strange feeling or something like that but eventually he got on it and.....we all know the result :(
Da A Also small planes.
And buses.
If you're a no talented overrated celebrity then fly and haul ass in sports cars
SRV and Hendrix best ever!
The way Jimi Hendrix plays is more loose than the way SRV played still though two amazing musicians.
See what happens when one of the best guitar players ever channels one of the best guitar players, EVER!??!
Yes sir, folks, that kind of flow, that kind of talent, doesn't come around every day. But one of the glories of our technological age is we all get to share in that experience. It's no longer like a sun-burst on a cloudy day; here and gone forever. It's no longer an ethereal moment experienced by the fortunate few who hear it at the time. Nope...now we can all carry it with us for as long as our tech allows. Ain't it great? RIP Sir Stevie Ray of the Vaughn clan. Rest In Peace.
John~
American Net'Zen
Jimi woulda been proud and impressed i bet
Who taught who as far as Jimi was concerned he was the first but SRV took Jimi's stuff and made heaven out of it
But he did not create it.He is coping jimI.
Stevie rayvon isn't revolutionary?He didn't change music he's not a genius.
He's a superb guitarist.
I have 50 to a 100 different bootlegs.That show jimmy playing these songs as good , if not better.
Remember?
Stevie raveyvan had about another ten years to perfect them.
Is it wasn't for Jimmy Stevie.Very bond wouldn't be the same.
He plays jimmy song superb but he is not jimmy and he's not a genius and he never will be
didn't come here to see footage of a river and barges. came here to watch a man become a god for 15 minutes
I believe you mean a God become mortal for 15 min.
😂true
That. Was. Awesome.
i heard Clapton and Hendrix do this song and i think stevie done it better then both of them i don't think he even hit the hight of his talent before he was taken way too soon
Ron Azbill I think that could be said for both...Hendrix was the original so I don’t think you can compare
Stevie Ray makes Clapton look like a one armed man at a clapping contest. Like a Chevy Chevette in a drag race. Please, in the future try to no mention them both in the same sentence.
Did it better* FFS
Sometimes it is still hard to see or here him , i am 56 old gray and bitter,but my already broke heart run by a battery,BREAKS, He was and still one of the GREATS went to soon like many others. Had a dream one night in an old empty wearhouse heard music comeing from a room in the back went and looked ---yes it was Stevie just setting noodlen around said I want to show you something you have not heard before. I said Stevie you are dead.he said thats why you ve never heard it. I still play it. to the walls in my room. yours truly still old gray little less bitter. Donna s hubby DENNIS ELLIS last name first first name last L.S.D.
There's something going on between Stevie and his guitar. He sneered at it then took it to the wall. It tried to get back at him and the guitar tech came out and fixed it.
The inspirional, man of the sound of gitar
HOLYFUCKINGSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!
IKR?!?!.. He's fucking unreal amazing!!.. Lol
+Mary Honosky Er... "IKR"?
+ministerskyddz ... IKR ( I know right?)..
+Mary Honosky Hahahahaha!
Sorry... I'm an idiot.
(blushing)
+Mary Honosky I could sub to your channel and have nearly every SRV vid out there at a touch! Nice work!!
what I wouldn't give to have been alive during this man's time.. I love SRV's music every bit as much as I love the Blues itself.. this song may be a bit less "bluesy" than some of his other music, but it sure captures how influenced by Hendrix SRV really was.. I hope to someday be every bit as good as SRV was and to take it all to the next level.. God Bless all Bluesmen and fans, living and dead.. May the Lord see to everyone having a safe 2015..
Addie B
I was and he was an amazing Artist
Hendrix as only Stevie could play it
Amen
Brilliant cover. So soulful. Rest in peace
One of the only filmed clips of SRV playing Llittle wing, and its all jacked up with awful camera work...I am one of many fans, who also play guitar that complain about this very thing, it serves no purpose to capture anything but the talent that is performing. There is no cinematography points for panning to watch the crowd or anything else, it is about the music and one of the greatest guitarists of our time. There needs to be a school for directors and cameramen to get this into their heads, and I have stated this on other posts as well, its a poor lack of awareness, on so many levels. We are the fans buying the dvd's and watching the material, it should be filmed with better integrity, just my two cents on it
Why not show the audience reactinf to the spirit of SRV's soul? I agree with the boat shots
I get showing some of the ambiance of he concert, once in awhile. But if you study this great and see some of his other vids, and even other great guitarists, they do the same thing. It's a reflection of not understanding who they are filming. I can't be the only person annoyed by it. Not furious mind you, just more like, what is up with this process??
Come on there's just like 5% of the footage that capture others things, sound like a good deal to me, always better than just the sound, SRV must be the most (decent quality) filmed guitarist at his time, there's a bunch of video where you can clearly see his fretboard.
Klapeful All we are saying is that we wish that whoever edited the video originally would have understood that keeping the camera on Stevie and his fretboard as opposed to super wide angled shots of the crowd or some boat would have been much better from a SRV fans perspective. I know it's nitpicking but it's just a minor irritation. Trust me, I am very glad that this video of SRV exists at all. Also I have watched many of his performances here on UA-cam and always like it when we get to see his guitar playing up close. At the end of the day it's good that all of us fans get to experience a glimpse of the man's talent on UA-cam regardless.
Thank goodness for that, it's just not SRV though, if you don't start talking about it and hopefully changing the mindset of what to focus on during a guitar performance, it will always be the same ole crap. There are many many vids like this, even with today with current guitarists being filmed in a very silly way. Directors and producers, and the cameramen need to understand this point. Not everyone has to agree with me, but I would venture to say I would have more fans saying the same thing for their guitar idols.
I miss you Stevie!
