Always have to hear this Hendrix tune after Little Wing.
Just beautiful expression of the guitar in most of his songs.
Stuff is timeless.

Just watched the original Robocop. Yeah, I’ve seen it a bunch of times, going back to the 80s. So good and surprisingly deep.
Now just looking up some remixes…
Whenever I return for another listen to Hendrix’s “Little Wing,” I also like to revisit these two instrumental versions.
This one is my favorite Hendrix cover of all time.
Whoopee!

Hell yeah! Rare to find a Rooster fan!
Before transforming himself into the pop icon who penned hits such as “Mellow Yellow” and “Hurdy Gurdy Man,” Donovan made his name as a folk musician. He was, in fact, good enough for the music press to saddle him with the moniker “The next Bob Dylan,” something that Dylan and his friends had a good laugh about, in the documentary film Dont Look Back.
Donovan’s 1965 album, Fairy Tale, contains many good songs from his folk days, including one of my faves, “Sunny Goodge Street.”
Judy Collins released her more than competent cover of “Sunny Goodge Street” on the album In My Life.
Marianne Faithfull also made some waves with her 1966 cover.
This video appears to be from French television, probably circa 1966. Is Faithfull lip-synching this? That’s my impression, but I can’t really tell.

After The Gold Rush
This is one of my favorite songs. It is from the album Bergtatt, literally “Mountain-Taken”, from a concept in Norwegian folklore. It tells the story of a young woman who gets lost in the forest. Here, in “Led Astray in the Troll Forest”, the forest seems to comfort her and show her the way, but it is only luring her deeper as she gives in to sorrow. Spoilers, things do not go well for this young lady.
