Eric Clapton & Sheryl Crow - Little Wing Live (Jimi Hendrix)

Eric Clapton & Sheryl Crow perform Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing - Amazing performance of David Sanborn on the saxophone!

[@musicman4635]

The first time I ever heard David Sanborn's sax was on the Butterfield Band album "Crabshaw" back in the 60's and he was incredible even then. He's sure paid his dues for the last 60 years! What an incredible time it's been and now to hear him with Crow and Clapton just brings tears to my eyes! So incredibly lucky to live in the time of all of this great music! Thank you Lord!

[@vvajsmith]

Damn….Sandborn just went for it. It is cool that Clapton just smiles at him.

[@johnmcentegart007]

One of the most beautiful renditions to Jimmies chords, just like the Hotel California chords. I rest my case. Clapton and Crow have an exceptional chemistry in this song and what that represents to people in the music community worldwide. Peace from Ireland 🇮🇪

Of course, remember that Eric ALLOWS others to be stars - totally unselfish. The true great ones realize that others can share the spotlight. Kudos, Eric ❤.

Musician's playing together.

[@zatopek42]

Well, in the few cases - I remember Derek Trucks - he just smiles and appreciates what the other guy is doing, and that's what makes him such a great musician, always ready to share the limelight.

[@dong1872]

Sanborn comes in on fire! They just have to laugh at the sheer joy and emotion of it. Jimi is smiling down on these wonderful musicians!

[@rnarly]

He does NOTHING! But, then again,Clapton does nothing but read from the same book. Sanborn has never shown any true improvisatory skills. Eric doesn’t have to,(people pay to see HIM. Listen to Coltrane,and then listen to Sanborn. They wouldn’t even be in the same room together.

Nathan East is a wonder. I saw EC a couple months ago. After the show, Nathan stayed on stage looking over the audience, taking pictures of us. I think he realizes this is probably it for Clapton as far as touring except for one-off shows, so he is savoring every bit he can.

The way Clapton plays the guitar makes you fly, that is why he is the legend that he is... his playing takes you on a journey across the sky. That is what happened to Sanborn, he rode over Clapton's solo and flew away. I know that everyone focuses on the sax part, but Clapton's 2nd solo is PURE MAGIC. I can't hold my tears everytime I hear it, specially knowing what the song means and how much I identify with it.

Every time I see this Video, I am so taken by the incredible performances, the sheer magic of that ensemble and that time (a moment) frozen and caught. It takes my breath away and makes me so happy I get tears in my eyes. What a memorable moment and I am so thankful it is here to see over and over. I have viewed this about 20+ times and I never get tired of it. Always been a fan of Eric and long, long time fan of David Sanborn, saw him many times live. Pair that with Nathan East, Steve Gadd, Sheryl Crow, the other key people on stage and Wow, it is entertainment at its FINEST! Thanks__ GNU for the clearest picture quality on this performance. I'm a musician and when I see and hear this, I can't tell you how rare this is.......

[@brianbytheocean]

Eric and Sheryl walked towards the mikes a few times during Sanborn's solo and he was in his own word so they just let him rock on. wow! Rumor has it that if that if they hadn't started singing again, he would still be playing.

[@tootz1950]

I've always loved David Sanborn. He had a TV show in the late eighties early nineties called At Midnight and had a ton of great people on as guests. EC was on quite often.

[@sueayers7065]

Great performance of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing!! Eric did a similar version on Layla. He had just bought a left-handed strat for Jimi's birthday and was devastated to learn during the time Derek & the Dominos was recording the Layla album that Jimi had died. People who view them as rivals don't know they were actually good friends.

[@djskidot]

Pink left handed. Eric saw Jimi but couldn't get to him at a gig. Watch BBC Southbank show with Melvin Bragg and Eric Clapton. Clapton tells you how it was

[@KennyRX7]

Eric Clapton is such a majestic all round musician! Saw him once with the Yardbirds and twice with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers in the 60's. Last time was in, I think, February 1989 at London's Royal Albert Hall with Nathan East on bass and Greg Phillinganes on keyboards (as here) and Phil Collins on drums - great night!

[@paulaepstein9051]

Totally agree...first saw Eric at Fillmore East with Cream in 1967, and countless times after. He has nothing left to prove but just gets better and elevates everyone he plays with!
