I've been learning this for a while now, and I've come to understand one thing: there's a big difference between learning the notes and chords of a song, and actually playing them with the correct feel/phrasing. I might be playing Little Wing, but this guy is *playing* Little Wing.
Much respect to you for that statement. You may not be there yet but you're on the right path to speak on it the way you do. You don't play it,you live it.
@@iamwhatieat9639 Love that intro. It's very jazzy than what i usually listen to SRV. It would be fun to learn what chords what SRV uses since i'm not really a chord enthusiast but i do learn Hendrix and Mayer's rhythm style with the thumb technique and triads

my friend, you've managed to successfully nail both that sought-after creamy, glassy strat tone, all while executed the tune with amazing feel and dynamic. i send to you, the ultimate kudos. amazing video
i swear last few months i said to myself that i can’t play this. but i know the intro already! im so proud of it as hell. theres some imperfections but man im so proud of it.
This is by leaps and bounds the most accurate rendition of little wing on the internet. I have no doubt pilky could have improvised more, let loose more, maybe played with more feeling if he wanted to. But this was not a guitarist doing his version of little wing - this was a guitarist studying and performing little wing like Horowitz studied and performed Rachmaninoff. Every nuance of Jimi’s playing is recreated down to muted notes, grace notes, extra strings strummed, direction of picking… there is so much attention to the smallest of details. Kudos to pilky - the millions of views are well deserved.
Has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of guitar work I can possibly imagine. Not gonna sit here and act like I've heard so much of all kinds of music or anything. But lord God every time I hear it, I can never get over it.
Little wing performed by Jimi Hendrix Experience isn't on UA-cam.... so I've listed to this 20 times the past week. Absolutely brilliant man. Perfect cover. Respect
I get where eSco is coming from, to me this is more of a lesson or a tutorial for the note for note. Great work but not creative, there are tons of ways to make covers your own, playing note for note isn't one of them. I really enjoyed listening and learning from it nonetheless.
I thought that “gummy sound” might have been a Univibe at a low level but no - Jimi didn’t get one until 1969. It could be the specific pickups and their height. He is in Position 2 (or 4 - never get those straight). Maybe they’re out of phase?
the sound you’re talking about comes from the leslie speaker jimi was using in studio. it came before the univibe, and the univibe was made with that leslie speaker effect in mind
i’m not sure why, but for some reason every time i hear this song it’s so beautiful it genuinely makes me smile. when i hear this song i can’t help but think about the happy and beautiful things in life and it really makes you appreciate them
Well, she's walking through the clouds With a circus mind that's running wild Butterflies and zebras And moonbeams and fairy tales That's all she ever thinks about Riding with the wind When I'm sad, she comes to me With a thousand smiles she gives to me free It's alright, she says it's alright Take anything you want from me Anything Fly on, little wing
This has been in my favorites for damn near a decade and it will remain as such. Haven't seen anyone else yet that understands the wavelength needed to compliment the original. This dude gets it. Props due homie!
The hammer on/pull off he does is off the beat. It’s subtle, but it’s there. You can notice a few other mistakes like that. Not to say that this is a bad cover, it’s fantastic, but some mistakes can be expected even in a top notch cover like this one.
Oil_Rope_Bombs The part when he's barring the 7th fret? I don't see/hear it. Maybe I'm just not familiar enough with the "correct" version. I've listened to the original many times though and it seems correct to me.
This cover is outstanding man. I used this to learn the embellishments Jimi used in the actual recording. This video is a blessing to Hendrix fans lmao
I'm convinced that all the best guitarists never played the song the same way twice. Page , Hendrix, SRV, Gilmour. They all just make the recording then every single time from that point on there's a change in it.
Jimmy Supafly agree 100% for instance, every rendition of Gilmour’s live comfortably numb solo is different and special. Finding your favorite version is quite the task lol
OMG. It's like sitting in the studio booth and listening to this album track being completely laid down. So wonderful to hear all of the nuances of the various instruments in full clarity. And what a musician! Of course the genius is Hendrix (and Kramer's) creation and realization of this music on vinyl. Thank you for sharing!
Up until the solo I was only about 60% sure he wasn’t just air guitaring over the original recording. Good lord, man. Absolutely phenomenal recreation.
Every time UA-cam recommends this I watch it again, somehow it keeps getting better. I'm glad that someone out there has an understanding of how great Jimi Hendrix was and is.
Beautiful playing. You do your index finger vibrato just like Clapton plays (without anchoring your thumb on the Solo, so all that's touching the fretboard is the tip of your index finger when doing vibrato without a bend) without sounding complicated, I don't even think Hendrix himself did that but Clapton certainly does. Very unique, brilliant playing.
nice playing, this the perfect guitar song jimi wrote - beautiful chords played in a way never before seen, stunning solo not played too fast - fits perfect, trippy vivid lyrics about a woman walking through the clouds. What a musician he was.the best.
Right. When you play this well you've earnt the right to be critiqued. Impeccable playing, I don't think I heard you dud one note. Great feel, this is one of those tunes that you've either got the goods to play it or you don't. You do. I liked this better than the Stevie Ray Vaughan version. You almost played it too perfectly for Hendrix, almost. Nice and gritty, great feel, smooth transitions, great tone, perfectly played solo. Very well done man, I smashed the 'like' button for you. 10/10
Best cover I've ever heard of this song. Not just the notes but the timing. I've never heard anyone get the timing right for the intro of this song apart from this guy. Well played and well played!
My brother is a guitar shredder and he introduced me to this guy's music and SRVs.. Got hooked to his music. its been 7 years now. Jimi's music is still stellar! Always has been. A legend indeed.
There were replies in another comment where someone said it had no heart, someone also said this guy is an amateur, like who the fuck are these losers, I bet even the best guitarists will appreciate how good this was.
I still can’t imagine how in the hell Jimi came up with the fingering. Where in the hell was he at to come up with this riff. I study a lot of guitar players. And no one has come closed to this iconic sound.
Seriously? You don’t know where this comes from? I doubt you’ve studied many guitar players then. You probably listen to a lot of zeppelin and Van Halen and believe you’ve studied “many” guitarists and you are deep by unironically loving the Beatles because of their “songwriting”
Couldn't be more thankful for Hendrix as one of the greatest musicians ever and for pilky27 for continuing to share Hendrix's marvelous heritage with us.
"Jimi what key is your song in?" "Uhhh, it's uhhh, it's not really in a key man as things don't go in keys. But keys go into doors. So when they open freely with the wind it's a vibrant purple man, with like an overshadow of red mist, soft light orange pale flame twazzle and a spiked yellow dusk overtone near a cloudy white sky with a hint of blueish thunder raindance and an elementary trickling of smoky river hew". "Cool, thanks Jimi. You wanting a pint?"

This is the closest to the original Hendrix track on Axis Bold As Love I have seen and heard. I know Jimi Hendrix played it a bit differently each gig - thinking about any of the live versions, especially Hendrix In The West - but the album track is the gold standard. If you can play it like this, you’ve put many, many hours into it. Every lick is a treasure and he never meant it to be a long, epic piece. Just a beautiful 2 1/2 minute piece of artistry. Bravo, pilky27!
@Chuck Wettish u so true lool , I'm playing guitar for 11 years now ( I'm 16 ) and I'm not capable of doing this rn. for sure I'll improve myself with practice but for the moment I'm stucked on Comfortably Numb 2nd solo so...
@@michaelpieruccini5816 No Perfection needed here, the basic functionality is given... yes, there are better players, only if you don't play nobody's better!
The nuancing of the apregiation (is that a word!?) is so satisfying. The way Hendrix was so loose and relaxed in the delivery. Just accenting and embellishing where his wonderful hands heart and ear felt fit . And then YOU saunter in an nail with your left hand and a right way up guitar . LOVE it
Little wing is one of the most beautiful rock ballads ever.
@Steve Keebler good England talk.

Really nailed the tone. The studio recording has this "gummy" quality that I've never heard anyone reproduce, except here
I thought that “gummy sound” might have been a Univibe at a low level but no - Jimi didn’t get one until 1969. It could be the specific pickups and their height. He is in Position 2 (or 4 - never get those straight). Maybe they’re out of phase?
Yess
the sound you’re talking about comes from the leslie speaker jimi was using in studio. it came before the univibe, and the univibe was made with that leslie speaker effect in mind
its called brand new strings
The sound is Strat + Pickup position #4 + Leslie + Great playing

This is the closest to the original Hendrix track on Axis Bold As Love I have seen and heard. I know Jimi Hendrix
played it a bit differently each gig - thinking about any of the live versions, especially Hendrix In The West - but the
album track is the gold standard. If you can play it like this, you’ve put many, many hours into it. Every lick is a treasure
and he never meant it to be a long, epic piece. Just a beautiful 2 1/2 minute piece of artistry. Bravo, pilky27!
If I close my eyes, I swear I'm listening to the original.
I watched this in awe and in envy. You have a gift my friend.
Will always rewatch pilky27’s cover of little wing when the yt algo blesses me with it
Why would someone not like this cover?
world: you stupid people will never be able to recreate such a perfectition like this the sound, the music and the solo
pilky27: hold my beer
pilky27: hold my head
@@donathancampbell6568 anyone can't reproduce it lmao but yea that's the main difference between a guitarist and a genius
@Chuck Wettish u so true lool , I'm playing guitar for 11 years now ( I'm 16 ) and I'm not capable of doing this rn. for sure I'll improve myself with practice but for the moment I'm stucked on Comfortably Numb 2nd solo so...
It's not a perfect cover. It's great, but it's not as good as the original.
@@michaelpieruccini5816 No Perfection needed here, the basic functionality is given... yes, there are better players, only if you don't play nobody's better!
This is the best cover song I've ever seen.
The nuancing of the apregiation (is that a word!?) is so satisfying. The way Hendrix was so loose and relaxed in the delivery. Just accenting and embellishing where his wonderful hands heart and ear felt fit . And then YOU saunter in an nail with your left hand and a right way up guitar . LOVE it
