  Something that still blows my mind.. Jimi wrote, played and recorded this stuff in the 1960s, died in 1970 at age 27.. it is now 2024 and we are STILL mesmorized, captured and amazed by his musical prowess. Forever idolised Mr Hendrix legend absolute 🙏

  &quot;I&apos;m sure he wasn&apos;t thinking like this; no one thinks about music like this when they&apos;re playing, but analyzing brilliant minds let us grow as musicians&quot;.<br>- Paul Davids.

  Love how the answer is basically Hendrix played it from feel, not timing, and even he couldn&apos;t exactly recreate it.

  The beauty of Little Wing is that you don&apos;t need to play it perfectly every time. As long as you have the chord progression under your fingers, you can ad lib and play anything you want. Riding with the wind.

  Hendrix just casually vibing with his guitar and not paying attention to the rythm, and people nowadays analyze every little thing he did like he did it on purpose. I like it.

  The irony of Hendrix&apos;s playing and groove being analyzed using a computer would probably just make him laugh and shake his head.<br>That said, it&apos;s a spot on analysis Paul, thank you!

  57 years after this song was recorded the world is trying to figure out how Jimi made his magic.. a true genius.

  Jimi didn&apos;t waste his time being &quot;on time&quot;. He just played what he felt.

  Hendrix did every bit of this NATURALLY. <br>The same way we talk...we all talk with a rhythm....Jimi&apos;s guitar was such a natural part of him, he literally spoke through his guitar.
