Despite its late entry into his catalog, the song "Angel" dates back to relatively early in Hendrix's career. In October 1967, he and drummer Mitch Mitchell first recorded it with the title "Little Wing" in a session at Olympic Studios in London. Later in the year the song took on its own identity, with an initial demo recorded solo as "Sweet Angel" on November 13, 1967 at Olympic. It was later released on "South Saturn Delta" (1997). On December 28, 1967, Hendrix recorded overdubs for his earlier demo; this version is included on "The Jimi Hendrix Experience" box set (2000).
