I think there are times when changing the arrangement around quite drastically, just as Eric did on Rocky Mountain High, makes complete sense. I'm not even bothered by Eric Clapton's rearrangement of Layla for acoustic guitar. At least I could finally understand the words.
Some people are flexible, some people are not. Some people are open minded, some people are not. I think a lot of this is simply about personality, and some of it is about musical background. The more background a person has, I think, the more open they are to musical experiments.
