Unfortunately, it didn't make it to the CD version of HITW due to legal matters and was replaced by a lesser version. Oddly this version was recorded in London at the Albert Hall in '69 and not in the 'West' as the album title suggests. Sorry for geeking but this is my fave version of this Hendrix classic and I've been missing it for years after I took my turntable out of commission. I had the Polydor West German print of the CD and it was there. [ Reply ]

Papernapkin Feb 29, 2012 - 16:35	Wow, this takes me back 40 years when music was good. It was the best music ever and I've never stopped listening to it. In fact, I don't listen to anything that's not at least 30 years old because that was the best music in the world and I've never bothered to see what's new because it can never compare to when I was a rebel in my teens. In fact, I still have a condom in my wallet from 1977. Hope to you it some day. ~RP Listener, since, well, forever. [ Reply ]

In general in guitar-land "vintage" equals good. Recording-wise it's a whole different game though. Strats and Teles were designed to be easy to manufacture not to necessarily be good. Jimi and the other era players absolutely had to deal with less then ideal equipment. Thanks to modern manufacturing techniques, musicians today have the very good fortune to have available to them very reasonably priced instruments of much higher quality then the stuff that was pumped out of the factories in the 60s. While players may _want_ these vintage instruments, the perceived quality of them is huge amounts nostalgia and romance with a dusting of Darwinian effects (the good ones are discovered and cherished while bad ones are weeded out). But these instruments, while good for their day, are not better then good modern ones. [ Reply ]

rm999 Nov 28, 2006 - 03:05	Little Wing is one of my favorite songs, but I don't think 2 versions of it by the same artist belong on the RP Classics list. If anything SRV's version belongs up there with Jimi's. [ Reply ]
