Not only was he a killer guitar player, but, he was one great human being. After overcoming an alcohol and drug addiction that plagued him for years, he finally got clean and sober. If someone came up to him after the show and said they were dealing with a drug or alcohol problem he would take them on his tour bus and sit and just talk with them. To me, that truly shows what kind of person he was.
He was a grand soul.
Indeed! I also heard rumor that he helped Jimi Hendrix’s fam out in the 80s by re-mastering many of his works and re-releasing them so they could benefit from the royalties. I guess Hendrix’s manager basically took it all and made sure his fam got nothing after his death. Don’t know if any or how much is true, but I wouldn’t be surprised. With all his own personal demons, his soul was pure!
Seems like there's 2 kinds of musicians out there; those in it for themselves, and those who've evolved to understand the impact their music has on their fans... and they're just like them. His actions remind me of those of Ronnie James Dio, another evolved soul. I remember a story about him that is like Stevie. He & his band had just finished a concert & were leaving on their bus, when Ronnie saw someone wearing a Dio t-shirt, sitting under a streetlight, looking forlorn. Dio had the bus stop, got off & asked what was going on; turns out the fan's car wouldn't start, he had no money to even call a tow truck or repair service, and he didn't know what to do. So, Ronnie took him back to the bus, called a repair service for him, fed him dinner, hung out & ultimately paid for the repair service's charges to fix the guy's car, so he could go home & tell his wife what had just happened. I love hearing stories like those, and I'm sure there's plenty of them about Stevie as well...
Bill Watson friend’s dad got to meet him and he said he was just a really humble down to earth guy. He definitely didn’t have the “I’m famous” attitude. He talked about overcoming his addictions.
Not a musician, but Chris Farley about once a week or so would go pick up a homeless person, take them out to a nice restaurant, then go put them in a five star hotel for the night while leaving them with a little spare cash. I heard it in a David Spade interview. He said Chris never mentioned it to anyone but Spade. He did it only for the purpose of trying to bring a little hope to a stranger, and wanted no credit for it.
If Jimi and SRV ever got to jam together I think the earth would have imploded.
@G. BUD Budlong Well i'm 54 at the moment and hoping not to catch that concert for maybe
another 20 to 30 years perhaps unless the reaper has other plans.
Its happening in the great gig in the sky...
... with Jesus sitting in on percussion, maybe??
You got that right. I believe the devil himself would suddenly accept Jesus as Lord and Savior.
@@redcaddiedaddie Nah. John Bonham on drums.
Such absolute mastery . The world was robbed with his passing .
The world is poorer bec he is no longer in it. A light was taken out of the world.
We cried and TEXAS took a3 day mourning for him. Wanna know who's a texan in a bar, play SRV and see who's crying, those are your Texans.
GOAT of Texas Blues. Period. Billy Gibbons up there but not quite w SRV
It's a Jimi Hendrix. Jam
@@andrethomas4099 And? All Along the Watchtower was a Bob Dylan tune. If it sounds good, it sounds good.
The only musician I cried over when he died. And I'm not be ashamed to admit it.
Bro. I cried watching this. He died when I was 5. Thanks to my pops he had albums and that’s how I learned about SRV.
Neil Peart got me too!!
Having met him a few times after his concert....I admit I was crying about our loss and Jimmie's
@paul Provenzano I was at Gregg's funeral. Saw Cher and so many celebs exit the service. I felt like crying but Gregg lived probably 35 yrs than a normal man of his "consumption". That gave me a little solace. It was almost like God himself let him stay to finish the game
Gord Downey, and John Prine for me.
B.B. King said: “I’ve said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.”
WOW!
Actually he said that about playing blues in the south when he first started!! But it works here too
Dale Harris I saw it on quotes by BB King about SRV but okay
Of SRV he also described his playing as”flowing,” moving from one thing to the next effortlessly. King then commented, “I can’t do that. “ This video is a prime example of that.
SRV own words, I am taking the color of the blues
Best Jimi covers of all time belong to Stevie Ray, that's just a fact.
Wesley Harding he absolutely blows jimmy away on this, pull it up listen to jimmy then Stevie, not even close.... I know that is sacrilege sayin that I’m 60 years old.... but it’s true. Not even close
@@rlfromchatsville3986 It's true but you'd never hear Stevie say that, the guy was incredibly humble, which is crazy when you're gifted like he was!
Better than Jimmy by a long shot.
I disagree. SRV is very technically perfect, very amazing. Jimi was more of a freestlyer. Both great in their own way.
Mr1sammyd21 You have no idea what you are talking about. I love Jimi but SRV was way beyond Jimi ever was. Even as screen SRV was cleaner, more technical, more musical and creative! Plus, he covered Jimi's material better than Jimi did.
When Stevie was playing he was testifying, giving the praise and laying his soul out and sharing his joy. RIP SRV.
You showed SRV the ultimate respect by not interrupting his jam and for that I thank you.
His brother Jimmy said ‘Some people never play it the same way twice. Stevie didn’t play it same way ONCE.’
LOL, True , Stevie just picked up #1 and "IT" just came out.
Gold
Those aren't sweat beads....that's pure, raw soul oozing from some deep, magical place.
Stevie BURNED with the blues. He always put everything he had into every performance. Bonnie Raitt said of Stevie, "He was probably the most fierce of the bluesmen I’ve ever heard. He had a furnace in his heart and was the epitome of all that is dark and sexy, brooding and passionate. The most extreme emotions of the blues and of life were in every breath he took."
Well Said!!!
Little drops of soulshine
And cocaine
And cocaine lol
Stevie Ray Vaughan made the guitar sound like it was alive and had a soul of it's own.
I love how when he played live, it sounded even better than the studio recording.
He was a true master!
there is an artist today you could say that about
Stevie's idol, other than his brother Jimmie, was the late Albert King. Mr. King said the only white son he ever had was Stevie Ray. High praise from one of the greats to the greatest! RIP, Stevie Ray.
I have been trying to get him to do a video of SRV and the great Albert King .. The studio cut with all Albert's music . Some the best ever
Yes the “In Session with SRV and Albert King” is truly awesome! Actually awesome doesn’t encapsulate how great and transcendent that it truly is!
born under a bad sign from the king/vaughn sessions was out of this world
Got to see him once in 1987 in Birmingham Al at a Blues Festival. Had no idea who he was at the time. I knew who the eff he was when I left tho.
🎸🙏🏾
I saw SRV at the Alabama Theatre in Birmingham in February 1987, he was awesome!
Real talk!
James Mitchell
I saw him at a college in NY shortly after his first album came out. I too had never heard him or of him, saw him cold for the first time and I was floored. 20 seconds into his first song, 'Testify', I swear I said this to myself, 'This is it, this is what it's all about'. I was never so gripped by music in my whole life, and still I've never seen anything like him except I became such an immediate fan of Stevie's I would have stalked him if I was rich, but I saw him every time I could when he came to NY.
He started playing big arenas, last time I saw him was at Madison Square Garden, and he was the man, but that show at the small venue before he became so famous, it was like personal or something, like he wanted to drill holes in my head with notes. Long live SRV!
Same .. but in new zealand .. remember it so well to this day ...had a smile for days ...
gotta give props to his tight band. that rhythm section hangs on his every note and lands where he lands every single time.
The story is that there wasn't ever really a set list. They were just playing along with where ever SRV went that night in the moment. His band doesn't get enough credit.
The incredible part is he was really a mess at this period in time. I saw him before he was clean and I saw him after he was clean and he played with so much more deliberation without losing that amazing soul when he was clean. Truly truly beautiful
Yeah I remember the days when SRV would take a "cold shot" every morning...a shot of whiskey with a whole gram of cocaine dissolved in it. Dude's tolerance had 2 be thru the roof. Thank God he got clean before he passed. That's something he was so proud of man.
Jimmy Hendrix wrote and played this song and his rendition was amazing, well Stevie Ray Vaughn took it one level up in my opinion.
Only one ? 😂
I still prefer Jimi’s, but SRV is his equal imo (which is saying a lot). Jim I just played like his guitar was a part of his body and an extension of his soul
Can you imagine the Hendrix and SRV jams that would have happened had Jimi not passed away?
No way, I have to give SRV this one. Just by tone alone he was above Hendrix in this.
As I understand the history behind SRV’s version of this Hendrix song ... Stevie felt he couldn’t sing it as good as Hendrix (his main idol) ... and preferred to let his guitar “sing” ... so he (SRV) made it an instrumental ... or at least that’s how I heard it ...
Also gotta recognize the rock steady, amazing work of Tommy Shannon, the bass player.
Yeah 100%. SRV brilliant. The bass is wicked! Such an underrated guitar especially in the hands of a great player.
Loved it
Did you see Stevie's grin when he came out of one extreme jam (4:39)and notices that base right there with him leading back into the song structure. That exchange between great musicians is the best music gets, in my opinion. That's when even the magician is struck by the illusion!
Kid Ramos!
He used to play bass for another Texas blues icon- Johnny Winter.
You are so right! Thanks for mentioning the talented Tommy Shannon too!! He could keep up with SRV and then some!
"Stevie was an endless, open channel that music just poured out of." "He made people who'd never touched a guitar in their life want to pick one up and start playing, and he made those of us who'd jammed onstage with him before want to quit." -Eric Clapton.
I've played since I was 3 and stevie just makes me want to smash every guitar in the world but his .
Yes! I started playing because of him and stopped playing because of him.
Reminds me of when Pete Townsend was asked in an interview what he felt the first time he heard Hendrix play live. His remark was 'A hell of a lot pain, because I knew that no matter how much I practiced, I could never be that good'.
Its not just his hands and mind connected, look at his WHOLE BODY when he plays. His hands, his torso, his head, how he moves, his soul are all physically and mentally connected with his instrument to play as a single entity. I believe that's what makes him the GOAT! The universe was cheated by that helicopter crash. Jamel, your reaction was beautiful.
B.B.King also said SRV didn't just play it he mastered it.
Most beautiful piece of guitar music I've ever heard. If Jimi Hendrix ever heard this cover he'd probably be like "hey man, that's cool"
They’ve been playing together since 1991 sadly. But I’m sure he stung this version up at some point 😂😂😂
GOAT. Eric Clapton said that when he was on stage with SRV, he couldn’t pay attention to what he was playing because he would become too intimidated to follow him. Eric Clapton!
Exactly why Clapton had his chopper crash with Stevie onboard.
He probably had a deja vu experience: "Damn, first Jimi in the 60s and now this guy decades later!"
@@3rdstone1 two of the greatest!
I’m definitely a Slow Hands fan but I seriously think the best work he did was with Cream and they only lasted 2-3 yrs..
SRV has a Buckethead poster in his room.
notice how he never plays one string he always strums them all and mutes all the others, effortlessly and never misses a note. Legend. RIP SRV
He was a channeler just like his idol Jimi! Music pours through them! It's like a possession!
100% dead on, and what seperated them from others on or close to thier level was, they could channel those feelings and emotions they experience into anyone within earshot of whatever it is they are playing.
He is just on his own level.. one of the GOAT..
One of the greatest??? Who can do what he just did? No one. Stevie is indeed the greatest. Not only talent that is unmatched, but soul that you can actually feel, and an amazing voice. No one will ever do this. Never.
This is the guitarist that can make every hair on my body stand up. A number of vocalists can do that to me, as well as some orchestral pieces, but only SRV can do that to me with his guitar.
Just coming back to watch this reaction again...
There have been many guitarists with crazy skills, but (to me) what makes Stevie unique is that he unfailingly employed his technical prowess to infuse his music with feeling and emotion, rather than to just shred. It is never "dry." And besides the expected mastery of pitch, rhythm, and dynamics, he could modulate his tone note by note...
When exceptional natural talent collides with obsessive dedication to practice, you get a Michael Jordan, Ricky Carmichel, or an SRV...
Peerless. Genuinely peerless in their generations. All we can do is admire slack-jawed and hope we live long enough to witness the next. Aliens, the lot of them.
Watch the vid closely and you can see right around 4:37 he comes back to the stage....he even looks around and back at his band mates..... the cat was so in the zone he was gone.....in another level or something.... amazing. SRV does such a genuine and incredible tribute to Mr Hendrix every time he covers one of his originals....SRV keeps it real but always adds his own greazy funk....
He was like, '"oh yeah... you all are with me too!"
Stevie doesn't even have to think when he is playing. To him it's just like breathing. The best!
Was fortunate enough to see SRV perform live in multiple different venues. Every show was slightly different and truly inspirational.
This has always been my favorite Stevie song...and it's actually a Jimi song. So much of Stevie is him playing things Jimi played, that nobody else could play with the tone and musicality Jimi had, and in some cases making them more listenable the same way Jimi did with All Along the Watchtower.
Everytime I see him perform I wonder what it FEELS like to play an instrument at that level! Wow.
🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🎸
Erica Veillette fr man i play guitar not even half this good & once ur in a bit of a rhythm it feels amazing i cant even imagine just completely popping tf off every time u pick it up like the way he did lol
It's a flow state, where you almost try to remove your brain from the equation as it only slows you down to think about it. I've been playing for 22 years and I'll probably never hit his level of skill but I'm not trying to be him either, though he is definitely one of my top 3 influences.
Out of body experience. Some people think his playing actually helped his sobriety.
MrCoxhammer • The flow. I love the flow. It’s breaking through “the wall” and then you’re just along for the ride. Almost out-of-body. Exactly like the runner’s high. It’s meditative. Pure. (Haven’t felt that for a while. I’m due. 😎)
He brings tears to my eyes, his playing makes me emotional cant help it.
Same here man, he just latches onto that chunk of the brain almost like watching a video of your kid being born.
Peter Vernon glad to hear I’m not the only sap these were my post high school days
Some of the finest blues known to mankind. Best blues/rock mix in the world. What a musician...
This was the type of venues I would see him in Dallas 1st starting out or the outdoor Deep Elem section of Dallas and I was lucky enough to get to see him a lot and as he got bigger see the bigger venues from mid 80’s- early 90’s and Thankfully we have these videos of his concerts because no one would believe you without seeing them and his passion and being in that zone. Thanks for playing this his music will live on forever
SRV and Duane Allman, two great gifts that left us way to early.
Randy Rhodes, Hendrix, Morrison, so many. Duane especially, only being 24 😭
Neil Forehand Tommy Bolin too at age 25
There will only be one SRV. May he rest in peace.
His version brings tears to my eyes EVERY TIME I hear it!
I'm a 65 year old lady, saw him once with BB, once with Jeff Beck, & then at a blues festival, freaking amazing, I am so blessed to have seen this man live. Rest in Peace Stevie, we love you! Thank you for all u shared with us
Saw him with BB King and there are no words to explain the talent that oozes out of this man🔥🔥🔥glad you got to witness him live also it's an experience❤❤❤
I'm 56 and saw him with Jeff Beck in Philly, it was only a few months later when the helicopter crash happened.... my best friend and I had to take a week off from work over his passing....😭
One of the most beautiful songs ever written! Played by the most inspired and talented guitarists ever. The man plays like he was born with that guitar. Look at 4:456 to 5:00. He's bending the strings and playing them at the same time! He plays so smoothly and passionately. A true pleasure to watch and listen to. May God let his soul rest in eternal love and peace...
Saw him in the mid 1980s, 86 I'm guessing, during spring break concert at the beach in Texas, I think he open up for Triumph, there were several bands that week but SRV stood out by far, it was a "wow what was that" this particular concert was FREE, when he started there was around 1000 people when he finished there were people practically all the way back to water easy 10K, speechless
Watching your reaction and hearing Stevie again literally made me cry. I remember exactly where I was in my car (in Austin, the exact street/stoplight) when I heard on the radio that he had passed away. I felt like the whole town went into mourning for him, as we thought of him as our own. They played his songs all day and into the night that day. There is a reason there is a statue of him downtown in the park, as he is truly one of greatest Texans we've put forth in our time. What an extraordinary talent, he was truly touched by the Gods. And Jimi was one of his main influences, so I know that the covers he does of Jimi's songs meant the world to him. Thank you so much for sharing your love of him with us. :)
I feel the same way every time I hear Stevie Ray play.
I grew up in Austin so I was lucky enough to see him live many times front row. It’s pure electric energy when he plays . He portrays his emotions thru his guitar like no one else I’ve ever seen or heard.
As good or better live than on his records . Not many bands can say that.
I even have a rare bootleg of him playing Antones blues club with Paul Ray & the Cobras from the 1976.
I think you're ready for Stevie Ray performing Riviera Paradise live in Amarillo, Texas. Laud, Laud.
@ Montag Add Riviera Paradise is my favorite SRV song of all.
I remember seeing the video from Austin City Limits with my gf and proposed to her at the end of Riviera Paradise....
Still married 17 years later.
The whole El Macambo show is phenomenal
Hardwood his best show, and there’s not a close second. He was “somewhere else” that show, if you dig me.
@@Jr-sw8wjThat was STEVIE RAY VAUGHN complete. Nothing else needed
I still think that opening tune, "Testify", was the best opening tune to any musical act I've seen live or on video.
The El Macambo.
That is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada??
That was the one show he found the tone everyone chases in with the blues and held it...………...most guitar players chase tone all their life but never find it long enough to hold it in check...…...SRV did that the entire concert.
SRV was THE most NATURALLY gifted guitarist EVER!!!!! I’m so grateful I got to see him live a month before he passed, thank you GOD!!
When Stevie hits that upbend at the end of the crescendo my spirit feels it.
“Jesus Christ!” That is the correct response to that performance. 😍
taking the Lord's name in vain is *_never_* the correct response
This is why G*d made the blues, and then, seeing SRV, He rested
@@googoo-gjoob No one took SRVs name in vein, so the lord is still happy. No one will ever take the lords (read: SRV) name in vein.
@@blakeweaver4108 , you laugh now.....
Doesn’t this just give you the chills, it’s so beautiful!!! 😭😭😭😭. Beautiful beautiful. GOAT!!! Beautiful. Miss you, SRV! So much talent, such a huge loss but thank God for the videos.
If you really want Stevie to blow your mind and change your life. Watch him perform "leave my girl alone" Austin city limits. The solo is beyond words. He loses it.
My favorite as well.
That one is amazing, also life without you at the cotton club..... you bbn know what, they are allamazing
If you like his voice too, might I reccomend "Life without you"
life by the drop was another great vocal performance by srv. just him and an acoustic guitar
Life Without You is one of my favorites ❤️💔❤️
My pops got me into SRV in the mid 90s.. life without you doesnt pertain to a lost parent but it gives me chills to this day at 37.. little wing, lenny are jams that my pops got me into.. at one point i had more cassettes of SRV than my dad.. but SRV= my pops just cuz he got me into him and that was the 1st time i actually bought a tape by an artist.
And Life by the Drop. And The Sky is Crying. And...
SRV still lives in my heart.
I love the beginning of this video when they show a couple of people in the crowd. They have blank stares on their faces. When I first saw the vid I questioned why they looked like that while watching a god play but I realized that those faces are of people that were taken to a different place. They were taken to another dimension. SRV truly was not of this planet. So very special.
An awaking, a spiritual experience for the ears and the heart and soul!
From God to Stevies heart and soul through his hands and voice and back into the universe!! God gifted talent and hard work!! RIP SRV...💝
My favorite Hendrix tune but Stevie does it proud! Glad you enjoyed it too!!!
Born and raised in Austin...lucky enough to see Stevie a number of times. It was always amazing...almost spiritual. I cried when he died. Couldn't believe it...RIP brother Steve.
You saw SRV a number of times lucky you, He was born in Dallas!
@@michaelbyrd7883 And your point on replying to a comment I made a year ago is?
He quit hs and moved to Austin as a teenager.
@@michaelbyrd7883 I've actually met Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton. Was after Stevie died unfortunately...
"This man is insane, my face hurts" Perfect!
The gifts of these videos for posterity. Thank you God for letting us have your gifted child for awhile! RESPECT!!!
SRV Is THE REASON I Picked Up The Guitar In 1983.....I Was Fortunate To See Him 'Live' At Least A Half Dozen Times (An Epic Show At The Masonic Temple (Concert Hall) In Toronto)!!!....So Cool That You've Been Turned On To Him & Your Helping To Keep His Vibe Alive!!!.....Spread The Blues Gospel According To SRV✌️😎☮️
Living in Austin l saw Stevie many times. I sorta a took him for granted. I see these videos now and experience the loss of his death all over again. He was so great and such a humble person. I thought he was better live than on recordings. Believe me his really missed in Texas. Now l watch videos of him with a new perspective. Great reaction and much thanks. Have a good day. Peace!
joel simms 🙌🏾
I saw SRV the first time at The Bar on 6th St. in early 1982. He walked on to play the second set with Lou Ann Barton. Suffice to say I was blown away. Shortly after he recorded with David Bowie on Let's Dance and the rest was history.
Saw him once in El Paso, TX, back in early eighties still have the ticket. Will never forget that performance.
Makes the guitar "talk" like no one I have ever seen or heard. He's a generational talent. Loved and missed..
Had me in tears... SRV always reminds me of my late father who introduced me to him at a very young age. And out of all the vidioes I've grown up watching of Stevie Ray Vaughn I've never seen this one. Thank you for sharing, it brought back memories of my father when he was alive.
Awww man, I love the Stevie Ray reactions. He played with so much soul!!! I had a chance to see him back in the late 80s at Toads place in New Haven, CT, but passed on it thinking I would see him again if he came back around my way. It was not to be, and have regretted it ever since. When he got killed in his plane crash, I cried and not ashamed to say it. It’s amazing how certain things hit you. I missed out on a special individual.
Then I knew, how my mother felt when Elvis died. I was like 5 years old, we were in her car, and it came over the radio that he had passed away, and I remember my mom crying like a baby.
Good reaction and RIP SRV 😢🙏🎸
Some more SRV I know you'll like:
Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland
Riviera Paradise
Pipeline with his brother Jimmy Vaughan (they play a doubleneck guitar together!)
There are so many great live performances. You can literally watch the same song from different concerts and none play out the same way. Just a beautiful man.
7 Codes tin pan alley is literally the bluest shit i've ever heard i love it
@@isaacmonson4403 There is a performance of Tin Pan Alley in Japan in January 1985 that just melts my soul. Ridiculous talent.
Im big into sound quality and have a nice setup in my car. Tin Pan Alley one of my go to for a demo. I can crank it up all the way, close my eyes and I'm in the room where it was recorded. It's amazing.
JiMi Hendrix and Lady Blues had a baby you know.And that child grew up to be a Mighty Mighty Blues man with his Ax in his hands, he became a Gift to the world known as the Incomparable STEVIE RAY VAUGHN, and the day he died all that knew him and his story cried, but he thought enough of us to leave a life time of music behind.#Live on STEVIE RAY
This was live at the Elmo on Spadina in Toronto. I was there that night. It was fillmed for posterity by CityTV (Channel 57 / Cable 7 back then), and simulcast on FM station Chum 104. He put on an incredible performance. His performances of Voodoo Child (slight return) and Lenny that night had me scraping my jaw off of the floor. Watch the full performance if you can find it. I bought it on VHS when it came out, then on DVD. It's an amazing performance caught on video to be enjoyed by people for all-time even though Stevie is gone.
I saw Stevie Ray and double trouble 4 times .. love this guy … forever missed … sweetest of tones … RIP brother
RIP~SRV
I can tell you SRV never was competing with anyone. He was showing respect to those he was covering.
If you know his relationship with Albert King, then you know I am saying the truth.
:)
It always gives me goosebumps and sometimes makes me cry. I’m just glad I got to live in a world with Stevie Ray Vaughn.
My dream has always been to see Prince & Stevie jam together...Now they are in Heaven...What a Awesome show that must be!
Prince met Stevie and ignored him at a venue. I forget which one. I read about in one of his biographies. Very rude about it, too. Stevie tried introducing himself multiple times. Prince ignored him, turning away, and kept asking his bodyguard if he heard something. Fed up Stevie told Prince, "You may be the Prince, but I am the fucking King Bee and don't you forget it!" and stalked off.
So, I highly doubt they'd ever share a stage living or dead.
Prince was peculiar. He threatened Weird AL with a lawsuit if Al looked at him at a Grammy show. They happened to be seated close to each other. He absolutely abhorred idea that Weird Al wanted to parody his songs and really disliked Weird Al. He had strained relationships with many people.
Prince was talented and gifted. I'll never say otherwise, but he was not an easy person to like or get along with.
@@xenoscoot I don't trust things I read or see published. If I wasn't there and witnessed it myself it's my opinion that it probably didn't happen. Regardless, the thought of them playing together will always be my dream come true....To each his own...Peace
I was not fortunate enough to have seen him in concert,but I know greatness when I hear it. Stevie wish you were here still making fantastic music. May you rip
Another great. I was living in Tinley Park, Illinois. Saw him and Eric Clapton together and he died a day or 2 after we saw him. Very sad. So talented and to hear him and Clapton their guitars together was the best
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Last show was Aug 25th, 1990 at Alpine Valley- My sister saw the Saturday show- I saw Sunday show- he died after the show Sunday night
I'm from Austin, TX and Stevie is in the air in the way that if your mother had flowers in her garden the bouquet is on the air. You can feel his presence all around you. His music takes me home in the same way .
I was lucky enough to have seen Stevie Ray play in the exhibition hall at Peoria Civic Center in 1986. It's a relatively small venue, no seating. I was standing 3 feet from the stage! The speakers were so massive they were literally blowing my hair back! EXCELLENT concert! Gone way too soon! RIH Stevie ❤
Lived in Austin throughout the 80,s.....saw him for 10 dollars at Antoines. Paid to see Albert Collins....Stevie showed up and they both played till Close.....lol
You...saw... the Iceman...and SRV TOGETHER?! I mean this with the utmost respect: YOU BASTARD! YOU SUMBITCH BASTARD! Nice! I saw Stevie nine or ten times. Sat and sipped whiskey with Albert after gigs. I got no right to be so salty. But, DAAMN, SON!
A modern Mozart. A gift from God himself.
You are the only other person I've ever heard say that. SRV was channeling the music. Not just playing it.
I believe Stevie checked out and just channeled. Never heard another musician squeeze so much emotion from an instrument. My unquestionable #1, I've played for 40 years. RIP master~
Stevie could make a guitar do things the guitar itself didn't know it was capable of. RIP, brother Stevie.
Like when he look at the bass player an smiled! Saying "killed it"
👍🏾🤣🤣🤣
Great job and you are fun to watch, you understand how music affects us! He is a true legend and always will be, everybody loved him!! While he is playing you can see him slowly but surely drift off into his Zone, not only in the genre of the Blues, but in all genres I consider him to be the best guitarist that's ever lived.
🙏🏾🎸
Glad you dig Stevie. I saw him 3 times the last time shortly before he left this world. Im an old man now Ive been listening to the bass player Tommy for over 40 years. Since he played with Johnny. Stevie was a gift from God. So cool to see younger folks enjoying this music.
when there’s no words there’s no word!!! for Stevie Ray♥️♥️♥️♥️
Man wouldn't even get in a limo. Insisted on taking Taxi's everywhere and talking to the drivers.
At almost all concerts, when a band or musician does something fantastic the crowd goes wild. You notice that during SRV's performances there is not a sound from crowd because they are all in total awe of what they are experiencing.
SRV is my favorite artist ever ! I gotta say he wears a guitar out man. He plays it how it’s meant to be played and then some when I hear this song I’m exhausted at the end cuz I’m so invested hearing everything lick on this magical journey , it feels like you’ve been on a journey with all the ups and downs it’s frikn intoxicating, I’ve been listening to him forever an it never gets old . May you RIP Stevie
I thank GOD that HE created a man like this who was willing to share his talent with the world, he is sorely missed.
This is one of the rare covers of any song that as good if not better than the original. It feel s appropriate the lyrics are omitted. I love Jimi's original as well.
I think what impresses me the most is unlike today this is live no room for mistakes raw unreal talent all of them back then and since his mentor was Jimi Hendrix can you imagine how it was fir him they were just born with a guitar in there hands real passion great job on your reactions love them
I saw him live seven times between 1983 and 1989, the first time at the Wax Museum nightclub in DC, midnight show. I was at the foot of the stage. Somehow I survived. The last time was at the Capital Centre with Jeff Beck. He was the best. Met him outside of Constitution Hall in 1985, he signed my baseball hat. All I could say was how much I enjoyed your music. He said "thanks Buddy", patted me on the back and boarded his bus. I was in the presence of true greatness.
Dude, I love your videos and your love for music!!! Thank you for sharing all of this!!!
Love Love Lobe your reactions!
Let The LEGEND shred uninterrupted… HELL yes!
He’s beyond amazing…. NO words. He’s in all of my playlists and Alive daily!
Best blues rock player ever.. dime bag the best metal guitar player ever!!. Lucky enough to see them both live!!!
Man, I’m so glad you found SRV. You were right when you said he was the truth! Another one by him I know you will love is “Riviera Paradise.” Love your genuineness and also those thought bubbles are a great idea so you don’t have to pause. Keep up the good work brotha!
👍🏾
my baby brother passed in 2010, this song gets me everytime. always makes me think about how much i miss him. lotsa pain in that song
SRV took Hendrix to the next level. Hendrix was all feeling with little precision. SRV is all of the above. He took greatness and made it shine even brighter. Two geniuses, a generation apart, cut from the same cloth. Both of these guitarists have changed my life, one for the blues and the other for pure creativity. Hendrix is the muse of every guitarist, SRV is an additional paint on that canvas of musical genius.
Stevie and his guitar are truly... One
🙏🏾🎸
I always loved how he called that guitar No 1.
I did see him live. It went Beck,Stevie, then Clapton. Stevie gave me goose bumps.....He was sober at that point and was to this day the best live guitarist I have even seen in my life.
Been a musician for over 30 years. Not often moved to tears by a piece but this one...this one...
Your reaction was priceless. As for me, when I'm seeing Stevie Ray working this hard (he often just coasts - and is STILL a virtuoso - but he put everything he had into this - and I cried - at 70 years old. He was born in 1954, and I in 1951 - I'm 70, and he would today be 67. My GOD, how good would he be?
I wish I could give this worthless body that's been struggling for 50 years to be 1/10th the musician he was at 34, to that helicopter, so it would take me instead of him.
It's a trade that would take me zero time to determine.
Someone like this - a force of nature, born to play (and like me, self-taught), who gathered up deep blues riffs from old blues players from Chicago to Mississippi (he was the priceless repository of so many blues players that are gone - added to his own gigantic, MONSTER skills as a player) is irreplaceable. Just... excuse me - I've got to go. R.I.P., S.R.V.
