Learn to solo like SRV in the song Little Wing, no matter your skill level.
Overview
Jimi Hendrix’s Little Wing was a ballad, but Stevie Ray Vaughan’s cover of that song was an anthem. If a cover version can surpass an original, this is it. The soft parts drip with soulfulness and the loud parts explode with energy, but Stevie never overplays. He never sacrifices the song’s feel, even when he breaks into those impossibly fast licks.
I wanted to capture that range of emotions when I planned the solos for the Fly On lessons. So I took the most prominent themes from that recording and designed solos that will sound very familiar yet offer a fantastic twist - something I’ve never heard Stevie do when playing this song. You’ll know it when you listen to it in the third chorus.
