I play guitar too, and “Little Wing” is one of those songs I’ve learned to play okay, but not exactly like the original. It seems simple on the first few listens, but once you actually try playing it you discover how complex it really is.
Exactly but, despite its complexity, it feels like it was just Jimi noodling around on the guitar and that’s what came out. I just bought a sweet Taylor acoustic and I’ve been working on a bunch of old acoustic songs for the past several weeks-Blackwater by the Doobie Brothers, Machine Gun Kelly by James Taylor, Sundown by Gordon Lightfoot and some of his others as well.
