Just to go on a bit more about Jimi Hendrix and Little Wing, I always liked this description by John Mayer (excerpting the article he wrote about Jimi in the Rolling Stone Immortals issue):

So often, he's portrayed as a loud, psychedelic rock star lighting his guitar on fire. But when I think of Hendrix, I think of some of the most placid, lovely guitar sounds on songs like "One Rainy Wish", "Little Wing" and "Drifting." "Little Wing" is painfully short and painfully beautiful. It's like your grandfather coming back from the dead and hanging out with you for a minute and a half and then going away. It's perfect, then it's gone.
