Ottima qualità audio-video per questo duetto live tra Clapton e Sheryl Crow coadiuvati da un grande David Sanborn al sax. La versione originale fa parte dell’album di Hendrix “Axis: Bold as love” del 1967

[@alessandromazzi1129]

Just read that David Sanborn passed away and thoughts go to this amazing performance

[@j.danielcastillo1473]

😢

[@southerngraceglamour]

I thought the same thing. I came here right when I found out.

[@fernandoalecrim3185]

R.I.P. David Sanborn. A brilliant, remarkable saxophonist. Although Clapton and Crow had discreetly laughed looking each other during Sanborn's sax performance, it has made an essential contribution to this posthumous tribute to Hendrix. Hendrix would surely love it.

[@aviavanish]

Sheryl smiling and looking at Clapton's amazing guitar play, then both of them admiring the Sax who was playing his heart out, EPIC! Respect to those who admire musicians who give it all.

[@alejandrojenteroy4844]

I keep on watching this because of the great David Sanborn.💕

[@soiledfool8131]

People, don't forget that the legend Steve Gadd is on the Kit and the amazing Nathan East is on the bass here. The talent on that stage is staggering.

[@keenokeeno9064]

One of the best live performances ever!!!!!

[@davidsegal8434]

Amazing version by blues rocker Clapton, country rocker Crow, and jazz-fusion sax genius David Sanborn. I love the looks on Eric and Sheryl's joyful faces as Sanborn lifts Little Wing into the stratosphere.

[@olcayduz431]

i dont agree, it misses the wildness Hedrix had and Clapton didn't had. Even when they were young, Clapton was famous and Hendrix was new but Hendrix was way better and made Clapton very nervous, he didnt know what came in front of him.

The most epic rock saxophone solo, full stop with Slowhand!? Unbelievable. It gets better every time I see it. All the views might be mine.

[@JohnnyAce-ud7qd]

He stole the show!!

[@MVG101]

aside from his guitar expertise, one of my favourite thing about clapton is that he always shares the spotlight !!! no matter what concert you can always be sure to find him hand a section of a song over to another incredibly gifted musician !!! what a legend

[@Blackkey034]

True. He let me play guitar hero on stage once and i made him pay me 800$ dollaroos

[@djw479]

Excellent cover of a classic! I love how fluidily they adapted thru this version, as Sanborn's solo goes on much longer than either Clapton or Crow thought it would. They step towards mics more than once and then step back...smiling and laughing as Sanborn just kept on rocking. They even sing over the very end of his solo...and soon after Sanborn & Clapton just share smiles. Its absolutely great seeing true artists enjoy each other on stage!

[@stefanbjurman2951]

A real "Feal Good Clip" Abssolute AWESOME saxophone solo. Out of this world 💯❤❤❤

[@BHAKTIBROPHY]

I, too, loved how happy Clapton was when Sanborn finally finished his solo-- which was *totally* in line with what Jimi did on stage quite often: one with his instrument, one with the music. And it just takes you somewhere glorious. That's what I suspect happened to Sanborn. I was so happy Clapton wasn't upset, but laughed and smiled. I wasnt expecting that!

[@burning4buddy639]

David Sanborn passing away was a day that music died again, just for awhile. The enormity of his talent was dwarfed by the chasm formed by the world losing him.

[@johnedwards1685]

Gracious Lord! Mr Clapton’s tone is so utterly sweet. And a band made in heaven, all having the absolute time of their lives. Just wonderful.

[@OnTheOnlyShipButHalfWannaSink]

I can't stop watching this. They all knocked it out of the park, every one, and pushed each other on. Rare & wonderful.

[@josepiovoso3180]

The best version of a wonderful song wrote by Jimmy Hendrix. He would be honored by such gifted musicians who sing his song

[@joeklein2200]

[@rayrupelli1470]

R.I.P. David....Been a Clapton fan for 50 plus years and that's the first time I've ever seen anyone cut Eric....well done. BTW; nice comeback on the second solo Mr. Clapton

[@motherfunkandwagnall4981]

This is a FANTASTIC rendition of Little Wing. The sax was a nice addition...Clapton seemed to love it, and that speaks volumes. I'm sure Hendrix would be pleased... even if his monomaniacal fans aren't.

[@SavageDawgJoshua]

Nope. This is an abomination. SRV is THE only cover of this song.

[@fernandoalecrim3185]

I would like to see Hendrix's reaction when hearing both versions of his masterpiece, that by Derek And The Dominoes, and this one, alive with this incredible band. And the striking solo by Clapton & Sanborn, for sure.

[@mees8211]

​@@SavageDawgJoshuatrue man you understand

[@mees8211]

Eric clapton kind of ruined the purpose with making it about vocals, unable to perform original on guitar

[@ligonlaw]

The best version of Little Wing done by anyone except Hendrix himself. The vocals are with Clapton and Crow are awesome.

[@joegigandet1415]

SRVs was better than anyone, including Hendrix in my opinion,but it's all subjective. Hendrix was a genius for coming up with the chord progression.

[@catchewayroulette6571]

Nowhere near as good as SRV's version.

[@napoearth]

You've clearly never heard of Stevie Ray Vaughan.

[@SavageDawgJoshua]

You are fucking high. SRV blows even Hendrix away. This version is an abomination and heresy against Hendrix.

[@jefffriedmann1482]

Skid Row did a gr8 version of this 2.

[@philb.1502]

Great version!! David Sanborn on the sax was spectacular!! Clapton and Crowe's vocals were 🔥! R.I.P. to the late great Jimi Hendrix!! We miss you, Jimi! We love you, Jimi!!

[@olenielsen7025]

We miss Jimi, but not the lowsy sax

[@liliamaeve]

A crying shame that Hendrix went so young, we only saw a brief glimpse of his massive talent. R.I.P.

[@WhizzingFish12]

I am a huge Clapton fan and think that the D&D version of Little Wing is the best out there. But I also have come to adore Sheryl Crow in how she blends with and compellements the musicians she works with. She's very talented.

[@thomascerulli8013]

The Sax player is David Sandborn. Considered to be one of the best sax players in all of today’s jazz world. Probably for the last 20 years. He’s the man

[@nakkiemarc]

The pure joy in the eyes of the sax player when he came back to earth after his solo is priceless

[@rockmebaby6312]

They sure done Jimmy proud with this rendition. Man what a song.

[@Gurci28]

2:32

[@Gurci28]

'Jimi wrote about the atmosphere at the festival as if it was a girl. He described the feeling as "Everybody really flying and in a nice mood." He named it "Little Wing" because he thought it could just fly away. The guitar on the song is played in a very unique style.' Google search engine

[@mees8211]

This is maybe the worst covering

[@FallNorth]

@@mees8211 Yip! Bland.

[@sn7miller]

Can you imagine if SRV and Jimmy were both still around and with Clapton, the 3 played this together!? No, I can't either.

Escutei várias versões de "Little Wing" no Spotify, mas nenhuma delas supera essa. Tudo perfeito. Dos mil solos de Eric Clapton, à interpretação de Sheryl Crow e, principalmente, o solo de sax indecente. Acho que se Jimi Hendrix tivesse sobrevivido até a era das redes sociais, teria curtido essa versão.

[@zizeldadiniz2891]

Essa fusão da voz emocional de Crow e a guitarra de Clapton é surreal

[@cashtaylor9804]

You know you RULE when you get a nod & smile from both Sheryl & Clapton! Sanborn on Sax😎

No one else amazed at the way the sax guy jumps in, unexpectedly. It worked great, but Eric and Cheryl's face show their amazement. Eric does a great job of actually lending him a hand. The boy had to have been toasted.

[@BonnChnd]

I get chills every time I listen to this rendition. David Sanborn lifts this up to an even higher plane. Playing the sax is no joke. Playing sax to Little Wing is a feat no one but he could do. IMHO. All respect to the Big Man Clarence Clemens. He’s probably up there smiling so wide.

[@jeffbrunton3291]

My favourite song by my favourite guitarist Brilliant guitar playing by Clapton But the original by Hendrix is far far better It brings tears to my eyes and a lump to my throat every time I hear

[@stuartparsons4948]

Agreed. The Clapton solo from 05:20 onwards is technically impressive, but IMHO this "cover" as a whole does nothing to capture the delicacy and beauty of Hendrix's original song, which is all too fleeting in its less-than-3-minute duration. This Clapton version leaves me cold, I'm afraid; and I can't quite see what everyone is raving about.

[@fruitydickens6291]

I've always loved Clapton's version of Little Wing. Sanborn was in prime form here...he's another brilliant talent. Clapton rolled with it, of course...brilliantly as well.

[@youreatoilet]

Not just Clapton! It was with Derek and the Dominoes, and it was actually Duane Allman that played lead guitar on it

[@kalyankakarala3546]

I've been listening to a lot of Mr. Clapton since years, I find one thing that's really good, every artist in the band contributes good music. Listen to all the other live performances of Mr. Clapton, he sure does give the credit to other musicians, that's so professional and humble.

[@gerhardrinkens2115]

Sheryl Crow is the most gorgeous woman I can see... wow,. lovely she is....

[@ivanmay7890]

Eric Clapton's cover version of Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix, was originally featured on his 1970 album, Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs.

[@eugenioremus2800]

The most hendrixian factor in this performance ... is the bass. Listen carefully.

[@johnnewman4355]

I agree if you take all four guitar players off the stage and then have Sheryl Crow get naked and never mention how much Eric Clapton sucks at this song then that would be cool man.

[@23theseeker50]

Great version of a Hendrix classic wonderful talent all of them loved the saxophone playing just magic to listen to there is definitely a chemistry between Eric and Sheryl I'm sure they were an item once.

Music is the one True language. It transcends age, race, religion, any affiliation and opens something magical that we all can connect with.
