Goode” with the beautiful studio recording of “Little Wing”. Originally issued in the UK on Polydor in 1972, the single showcases two very different sides of Hendrix – the raw power of his live guitar playing and the atmospheric, melodic songwriting of his studio work. The release reached No. 35 on the UK Singles Chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e“Johnny B. Goode” was recorded live at Berkeley Community Theatre, California, on 30 May 1970, during one of Hendrix's final major concert periods. His version transforms Chuck Berry's 1950s rock 'n' roll classic into an extended showcase for his guitar, combining the familiar riff with Hendrix's distinctive tone, phrasing and improvisational style. The recording was subsequently issued on \u003cem\u003eHendrix In The West\u003c\/em\u003e as well as this 1972 single.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eOn the B-side is “Little Wing”, one of Hendrix's most celebrated compositions. Originally recorded by The Jimi Hendrix Experience during the \u003cem\u003eAxis: Bold as Love\u003c\/em\u003e sessions in October 1967, it is a compact, atmospheric piece built around Hendrix's expressive guitar, vocals and a delicate arrangement featuring glockenspiel. The song was first released on \u003cem\u003eAxis: Bold as Love\u003c\/em\u003e in December 1967 in the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eWith recordings spanning 1967–1970 and the single itself issued in 1972\u003cspan\u003e, this is an appealing Hendrix 7\" for collectors of classic rock, psychedelic rock, blues rock and vintage 1970s singles.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJohnny B.
