I was in the audience that night. We were all absolutely blown away. The greatest blues guitarist of my generation.
How loud was it? Since el mocambo is a small venue and SRV had some huge amps it must’ve been insane!
Lucky you what a memory to have I saw Stevie in 1986.
Really cool! But do you keep searching up videos of this performance to mention this fact in comments as a feat of your life?
@@MrOjeeeee I’m betting yes
How could there be boos in the crown, never understood that part
After Stevie passed away, Robert Cray was quoted saying" he will continue to frustrate guitar players for the rest of time!". That's high praise from a legend.
Cray was on stage with him during his last show / last song.
Robert said that? Yah i could see crayz saluting Stevie,stevie was very personably person very easy to approch just like Keanu,all the great artists have magic?
....
cray was right, but being fair, is no legend
Technically, a lot of guitarists can play exactly his songs and style note for note, and emulate his sound nearly perfectly. But to duplicate his voice, that is another matter. And to duplicate his live stage performance while also playing and singing just like him, well, forget it.
As nasty as floolaborg
The Greatest Guitarist To Ever Walk This Planet..R.I.P. Stevie🙏❤
Calm down happy methehappyone, yes SRV, is a great guitarist in blues, but, watch HENDRIX, OR JIMMY PAGE, LIVE, TO SEE WHAT THE GODS OF GUITAR ARE ABLE TO DO OK!
.....and a fantastically loving human being, as well. With respect, I love all these guitarists you mentioned, Julien, but y'all should probably check out some of the current top guitarists. It's scary to see this instrument's evolution.
SRV, Page, Hendrix,.... they're legends for a reason, but they've very clearly passed the torch. Check out: Plini, Tosin Abasi, Tim Hensen & Scotty Lepage, Sithu Aye, David Maxim Micic..... The list is long.
@@julienmarquet8612 Hendrix was sloppy good, SRV was much cleaner. Both gone to soon. However Hendrix O.D. and Stevie was clean and died in an accident. Paige has always been my favorite 😍
@@qmiller9 Ho please man! Seriously! It's not onpy about technical skills bro! It's abput creativity, imagination, technical skills! All the guys you're talking about, never created anything! They picked up what HENDRIX, PAGE CREATED MAN! THAT'S WHY THEY'RE SO MUCH BETTER! LISTEN TO JIMMY PAGE, LED ZEPPELIN LIVE AT THE MADISON SQUARE GARDEN 1973 LIVE! THEY'RE NOT HUMAN ANYMORE! WATCH HENDRIX LIVE AT WOODSTOCK 1969! ON ANOTHER PLANET! OR HENDRIX BAND OF GYPSIES ALBUMS, BOTH, THE 1ST ONE, AND THE 2ND ONE FROM 1997....IT'S UNMATCHABLE! BY ANY GUITARISTS! THOSE 2 GUYS ARE ALWAYS ON THE 2 FIRST PLACES, IN THE RANKING OF THE BETTER GUITARISTS OF ALL TIME! BUT, THE REALITY, IS THAT THEY ARE IN THE EANKING OF THE BETTER MUSICIANS, COMPOSERS OF ALL TIME! SERIOUSLY, I CAN UNDERSTAND YOU LIKE NEW GUYS, BUT, DON'T COMPARE THEM TO THOSE LEGENDS! I'M PLAYING GUITAR SINCE 25 YEARS! I TRIED TO LEARN ALL THE KIND OF MUSIC, ROCK, BLUES, JAZZ, CLASSIC, FLAMENCO, ETC, ETC.... AND, THE 2 GUYS, I, STILL, CAN'T PLAY LIKE ARE THOSE 2 DUDES! SO PLEASE, BE SERIOUS! OR, YOU THINK THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLES LISTENING TO THEM ARE ALL STUPID, TO THINK THEY ARE THE BEST? AND, ALL THE GUITAR HEROES, ARE STUPID TO SAY THEY WERE THE BEST?
AMEN RIP SRV THE BEST GUITARIST EVER
Your reaction to this made me tear up. Having watched this over & over, you had the same reaction I did when I first heard it. Jaw dropping, shedding tears of joy, in disbelief, that someone could actually do something so beautiful. Cheers to you, and cheers to one of my heroes, Stevie Ray Vaughan, for making this world a better place to live 🍻
It changes you forever
SAME!! And I’m a damn 54 year old man! Best reaction to SRV on CZcams
That guitar was an extension of his soul! We are so lucky to have a library of his music to enjoy!
Had the pleasure to see him in the bars before he hit big and also in concerts after. Seen a lot of the greats live but none were better. RIP.
Well damn, man, I'm envious! That must've been amazing! What years did you get to see him?
@@TheMidnightModder Started in early 80s in the bars in Ft Worth & Dallas
Bless you, bless you bless you
I did too. I got to have a drink with him on a couple of occasions and later in concert. He was such a humble and nice guy. I didn't know who he was when I first met him. I was in this little bar Lubbock Texas with some friends there was probably only 7 people in the whole place. He was being social with everyone. After a bit he went on this tiny stage played for 20 min straight after having just played a concert. He blew me away then. He will be greatly missed
@@digitalblues01 Started in the 1970s I use to see Stevie and The Triple Threat Revue with Lou Ann Barton at the Rome Inn on Sunday nights around 1975 or 1976 he was great, also with Paul Ray and the Cobras at the original Antone's opening for Muddy Waters in 1975 RIP Stevie
RIP Stevie.... Real guitar players are more impressed than most people because they know how hard it is to do what he is doing. Those are extremely thick strings and it takes unbelievable hand strength to bend them like that.
Yes Stevie used heavy strings, but he also had his guitar down tuned to D flat.
@@fposmith Yes, and I'm sure what you are trying to point out is that, by tuning the strings down, it made them much easier to play, including at the 1st fret position. It also didn't hurt that he played all day and all night either 👍😊😉.
13s and tunes to Eb like the old blues players.
Ive bn told he often used -13 gauge strings-CABLES-! Had to shred his fingers the way he played.. bending them as he did. G O A T ! Rip steve..12/19/22. Blues giant. Awesome man and talent. None like him.
@@fposmith I dunno. I got 12s in D on a guitar and they're still pretty heavy. To bend like he does takes some strength and finger calluses. To do it night after night for years seems insane. Meanwhile, Billy Gibbons went from 8s to 7s. Now that I understand ;-)
SRV was just an insane talent. Even other great guitarists have been in awe of him when they seem him play. Most guitarists, even the really good ones, seem to think as they play and you can see them think their way around the fretboard, but not SRV. The music flowed from him through the guitar. What makes his playing even more impressive is that to get his tone, he played heavy gauge strings and could still bend at the first fret and play that fast... amazing.
I heard he had to use such heavy gauge strings because the lighter gauge strings kept melting when he played.
RIP SRV
Stevie played true blues, never played it the same way twice. Also at this time in his life he was almost always drunk and high on cocaine. And he still could play the hell out of that old guitar!
You know you're a great guitarist when you play better behind your back than most people play the regular way.
The look in every single guitar player Ive ever known, you can see the exact second that their soul leaves their body upon the realization that they were infants in the guitar hierarchy. SRV is the God. RIP Stevie.
You are absolutely correct. Stevie Ray Vaughan was incredible. God rest his talented soul.
You know its something special when you get stank face watching and listening!!!!
SRV was the greatest modern Texas blues guitarist ever. Check out the other El Mocambo gems. He was on fire that night.
Got to throw my Freddie King in there
Albert collins
Stevie Ray has that effect on most people seeing him for the first time. Wow is right. He probably played that song hundreds of times, and every single time it's different. He freestyled everything. You can watch him perform the same songs at different venues, and they are all unique and all incredible. We have a statue of him here in Austin. You should come down and see it sometime, if you're ever in Texas. Stevie Ray was a natural born world shaker. Enjoy yourself as you work through his music. 🤠🥳👌
your so right he just plays his souls music and his expression is always original, I find it a bit frustrating at times that people and even musicians and guitarists seem to think when they try to play a song like this that they need to try and copy, they must spend hours and hours trying to do everything a master like SRV does and I think they often dont realise that Stevie just played without even thinking, he was just following the music in his heart,, I really dont like to try and copy a lead break another guitarist has recorded, firstly its just way too much work and secondly my heart and soul have their own music that I want to play,, I will never sound like Stevie or any of the other greats, but i do sound like me and i think thats something we should all aspire to as musicians,,
@@hugokappes4077 Hear hear, agreed - & not only in pursuit of broadening and perfecting, finding personal joy in our music, dancing, painting, whatever your source of fulfillment may be, but just in the very worthwhile course of our lives and self-acceptance❤
Young Lady…your reaction to SRV makes this 62 year old rocker a happy man. There is still hope in this world to keep blues alive…because as Middy Waters sang…the Blues had a baby and they named it Rock and Roll. Rock on Sister!!!
I have heard Recordings of this song hundreds of times and seen the El Mocambo video dozens of times. I got chills watching it again, after all these years. Still love you , Stevie.
...1947..mes
mesmerizing
People say Stevie was a down to earth humble guy. How the f.....k can you be humble whe you can play like that
Stevie’s bass guitar player and best friend, Tommy Shannon, said that whenever Stevie picked up the guitar, even if he was at home sitting on the couch, something came over him. He said that Stevie became transfixed, completely lost in his music. That is more than just talent. That is what you witnessed here. And that is what sets Stevie apart from everyone who has ever played, no matter how good they are. You can see it and you just know it.
Totally agree, it just oozes out of him!
Tommy Shannon was also Johnnie Winters's bass player.
@@johnmurray1525 yes, it does. Good way to describe it.
@@armadillotoe yes, Tommy is a world class bass player.
I loved how you describe that place when Stevie played,, that zone where your just in the music as you play is a gift from god,, sometimes at home when I practice i get there, but on stage lol, nope,, one day maybe,,
R.I.P. Stevie. Thanks for this reaction!!!! Love U. Greettings from Argentina.
I never saw Jimi live, but I have loved him my entire life. I saw Page live, which was incredible, though he was not on top of his game at the time. I aw Stevie live, and it was the most jaw-dropping performance I have ever experienced. He was so good, it was kind of terrifying.
Just happened to see this today and thought I would try to catch you. My name is Gary and I’m 72 I have been lucky enough to see all the greats including Jimi In Detroit. They are all amazing. I seen Stevie along with Jeff Beck. My love will always be for Jimi . Man those were the days.
Loved your reaction!!! One of the best things about Stevie was that he was as kind and humble as he was talented. Check out his “Voodoo Child” from Austin 1989. Put on your seatbelt!!
I can play every single note of this whole performance without missing a beat…..on air guitar
STILL MISS HIM !!! But his music will always REIGN !!! ❤ Stevie you da Man !!!
Best description of Stevie Ray I think I've ever heard he is a magician a master magician
His style and sound is almost impossible to duplicate. He had very large and strong hands, and played with the heaviest strings possible. Authority of the sound he created is unmatched.
I'm no guitar connoisseur but am reminded of Luther 'Guitar Junior' Johnson, especially playing 'Somebody help me'. Similar sound because he started in bands that could not afford a rhythm guitarist - had to be both.
Seeing this video is a defining moment for untold numbers of aspiring guitar players - it is the work of a wizard magician who is in a class all by himself. There are endless amazing live performances to watch - Stevie is that 1 in a billion.
there is always so much hyperbole in most comments but your is literally correct - or understated. Not one human out of one billion can play guitar like SRV did. Or fewer than that. We shall not see his like again. I saw him twice in concert and many times on videos and every time I am amazed. Every. Single. Time. He is one of those folks that if you didn't know he was real, you'd think people were making it up.
I loved when she said that it’s only been a minute and she tell the he is nasty on guitar! Great evaluation!!
Pronounced "Vawn" This man had the blues running through his veins! He lived it! RIP
Oh, I love when one of my favorite reactors discover SRV for the first time! I had a huge grin the entire time, watching your facial expressions!
Awesome reaction to a Texas native, he is greatly loved in the Austin area there is even a statue to his tribute, got to see him many times in local bars all around Austin even got drunk with him once and he was an awesome person, loved his fans, especially in the Austin area. Not many great blues rockers out there these days but he was among many that were before him, like Clapton, Pat Travers, Jimmy Page, Gary Moore and so on
He wasn't from Austin. He was from Dallas. Oak cliff to be exact.
@@keithbryant3796 Correct...but once Antone's opened, he played Steamboat 1873, Antone's and other clubs on 6th Street and around Austin...formed Double Trouble, then he blew up. He was a central part of the Austin Blues scene, which was the scene in Austin (that and hill country folk stuff from Townes Van Zandt, Blaze Foley and Guy Clark) long before indie music started taking over. His statue was put on Auditorium Shores.
Love watching the younger generation listening to the music we were raised on. Your facial expressions are adorable when you are like “what”.👏🏻🤗
SRV is the GOAT of guitar. He left too early. His mark on the Guitar playing world is incredible! Merci pour le reaction! I love when all new reactions, stare open mouth to the the video. Love your reactions and many more to come. RIP SRV God now has someone to listen to.
I saw him play here in LA…Whew…I will never ever forget the power of his playing…Jaw dropping brilliant…
Come to LA and hang out for a minute…
Eric Clapton, once said that Stevie was the only guitarist that he knew of that the music just flowed from him. That he never had to stop and think of what was next. That the right note just came out.
Blew my mind first time I seen it Stevie ray Vaughan one of the very best guitarist of all time
I watch this with such nostalgia. Saw him live back in the day. Sensational. Here's my story.
My dear wife cried when he died and was pregnant with our first boy. She immediately said that his middle name will be Vaughan. He took up the guitar when he was 15yo & within a couple years turned into a hell of a blues/rock guitarist. He's now a consummate all round musician and recording engineer. We still still tell him it is the essence of Stevie & the name 'Vaughan' that gave him the talent. He's a hell of a guitarist now.
Pronounced (VAWN) I got to know Jimmie Vaughan, a little bit in the 1980s. I met Stevie once when he was playing a club in Houston called Fitzgerald's. He had already premiered on David Bowie's album Let's Dance but his own first album had not come out yet. He was quiet and in between playing one hour sets at the club. Fitzgerald's held about a thousand people it was packed. Saw him again many times, many places. Before he got well known, we were all looking forward to him being a great success and when the record came out it was a great success. If you check out "The Vaughan Brothers- "Family Style" and The Fabulous Thunderbirds "Girls Go Wild" albums ......Scott Rowland
5 minutes later I still here it in my head
Love to see new generations find srv. Thanks for listening.
So glad to see young people like you, show your first reaction to this performance. You picked the best performance of this song he ever did. Being a devoted fan of the man for 40+ years it does my heart good to see reactions like yours to his " magic." From the beginning, I saw that the guitar work he put into one song, would be albums worth of songs for the average band. I saw him live 4 times.
Always that same intensity! As a guitar player, you know what it would take to play at that level of intensity, night after night on tour. Incredible! Thank you for your reaction.
NObody played the blues like SRV, so much soul gone way too soon - best slow blues guitar performance ever recorded, I saw him play live twice never forget it. - RIP SRV
Great reaction. He was one of a kind in deed.
Nothing gives me more Pride and Joy seeing someone new experience Stevie for the 1st time. Mine was back in the mid 80s and he still blows me away everytime I see this video. He does have other music; you should check him out!
Two of the greatest guitarists in this video: Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Stevie Ray Vaughan playing behind his back.
Under-rated comment.
The man was a true Magician on the guitar; his music was inspired by his beautiful soul. If you really want a treat do a reaction to his song Tin Pan Alley featuring Johnnie Copeland. When Stevie would go on tour, he would often bring blues guitarists along with him that he had listened to growing up.
Thanks for your reaction...Long live the the King forever .....
Eric Clapton called him 'an open channel.' music flowed through him. his drummer and bass just improvise as Stevie goes off. Clapton played with him, the night he died.
A MUST SEE/HEAR Classic,, Stevie Ray Vaughan "Couldn't Stand The Weather" (Official Music Video A MUST!!)..Put On Your Raincoat.
Most people have ZERO idea how good he was. He was one of the few people on our planet who could become one with his guitar.
If you watch this specific performance and are not moved emotionally, you are a zombie.
Guitarists often try to imitate SRV, but nobody will be able to duplicate his sound, precision, speed, and delivery.
Nobody. Ever.
I've watched this SRV performance at least twenty times and my amazement never ends! Thanks for sharing it with us.
W0w. So surprised you hadn't done Stevie. I've heard you say love the guitar and Stevie had it in spades. Definitely one of the GOATs.
One of the very best of a small group of blues guitarists who rule the genre. Outstanding voice and a master of his instrument. There were a few others, each with their own style and strengths, but Vaughan had a passion that couldn't be surpassed. Johnny Winter, the Texas Albino, is another one worth a listen, and his brother Edgar, (also an albino,) playing keyboards and sax had a magnificent voice. Rick Derringer, a guitar wizard in his own right often played with both of them. Of course Hendrix when he played straight blues was pretty magical. And if you want to hear someone who's a perfectionist at his craft listen to Eric Johnson. But you picked a great one to start on that journey. Stevie Ray Vaughan was very special.
Alvin Lee wasn't too shabby, either.......
@@guidosarducci absolutely! Very precise intonation and a master of tone.
@@scottbloom6871 Indeed! 🙂🙂
Let’s not forget Buddy Guy. I saw him hold a single note once, while drinking a cup of tea…. And he sipped it, with his pinky raised….
Yes!!! The G is silent -
Vaughan like LAWN, YAWN, FAWN.
I've been looking forward to you reacting to SRV !!! Yes!!!
Every bit worth the wait -
So nice 'i watched it twice !!!
There are so many talented and gifted singers and musicians but a few are just beyond great, brilliant, amazing.
He's like a magician...exactly right
Since the first time I saw how much you loved great guitar music I've waited to see you watch this.your silence spoke volumes Ms.V.i was lucky enough to SRV in concert 3 times in the '80s.he was absolutely mesmerizing.to see on stage.a quiet humble man who overcame terrible drug and Alcohol problems.the day they announced his death I wept like a lost child.if I were to a live another hundred years I know I would never see anyone better on the electric guitar .thank you so much for this wonderful reaction
..got to see him 4 times..each beyond description..my all time favorite..sure do miss him
One of the best videos here. The God of all guitarheroes ! R.I.P !
👍👍👍🇸🇪😎💕
Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi is the birthplace of Rock n Roll.
I was fortunate to have seen SRV a few times live. He use to play several of the clubs in Houston. Fitzgerald's was one place he frequented. So sad that he passed when he was finally getting his personal life back on track. RIP - SRV 💙
When I learned that he hit the sky hill, I was actually hoping that it was Clapton or one of the others because of the very reasons you mentioned !
Oh wow you already watched it! I enjoyed your reaction! I knew you would be blown away, and you surely were blown away. He is the greatest guitar player ever recorded. I have heard so many from the past but this man stands head and shoulders above the rest. I had the pleasure of seeing him twice live. The first time Jeff Beck who in my opinion is the second greatest guitar player ever recorded, opened the show for Stevie. They played together at the end and it was awesome seeing them together, but Stevie was better. The second time I saw him was a Friday night show at the Kalamazoo county fair the weekend he died. My ears were still ringing Monday morning when I heard on the car radio that he died. I had to pull over and wipe away my tears and recompose myself. Rest in Peace Stevie, I hope to see you in heaven.
Never got to see him, sure wish I had. No comparison. One of a kind.
Vaughan se prononce simplement « Vaun ». Belle réaction!
The G.O.A.T
You are 100% correct, Stevie has SOUL!
Your Heart and soul are expressed so much in your reaction! You are definitely in the same realm as Stevie Raye! Thank you so much!
I am so glad you got to see this. The one thing I wasn't expecting from my reaction to your reaction was that I would start laughing so hard I was tearing up. Your reaction to him playing behind his back was priceless, especially when he started singing at the same time. I don't think I was laughing because it was funny, as much as it was a joyful reaction to you seeing something amazing. I think you summed it up best by saying he was a magician.
If he had lived I think he'd be known as the greatest American guitarist without doubt. A convincing argument can be made with the body of work that he has.
I just LOVE watching Stevie Ray Vongan playing Texas Flude!
🎸💯 Lord those Texas blues y'all‼🔥
🤯 SRV called his guitar "The One"‼🐐
RIP Stevie Ray Vaughan. ❤ 🕊 🙏
(Great reaction little sister!) ☮ ❤ 🎶
R.I.P. He played behind his back better most great guitarists in front. Finest guitar player ever.
Great reaction Verdy (and another great song choice). The great Elmo in Toronto. Lots of famous acts have played there. I saw several there including Mick Taylor - ex Rolling Stones guitarist
You cant go wrong with this artist. A great reaction❤🙏
Stevie was the full package, and I think it's great that some of the youth of today get it and can appreciate the talent that was SRV. It's the same look that people that have never seen Stevie play when play s behind his back better than most play normal.
SRV is one of the few guitarists that can leave you truly speechless. Gary Moore is another. Watching these two guys has always been
a pleasure. Sadly they had a short life but they left behind a treasure trove of fantastic videos and albums in which people can enjoy for
eternity.
Watching you react to that is almost like seeing it again for the first time. Great reaction; love your channel!
That was Verdylicious!!! Thank you🙂🙂🙂
In the top handful of greatest musical performances in history. Stevie wasn't playing a guitar that night. This was a Stevie-Guitar amalgamation.
That poor guitar. Great reaction. Incredible song.
Caught you again, boy you really do get around, I seem to find you everywhere. 😉I mentioned in my comment that I wasn't expecting to start laughing so hard at Verdy's reaction to him playing behind his back, and then singing at the same time. It wasn't so much that it was funny, but I think more of a joyful reaction at seeing how amazed she was, and the joy of knowing she got to see it.
@@LeeKennison this is such a great channel of course we are here. It fun seeing someone enjoy something that you know they are going to like, makes the world a little warmer.
@@Hartlor_Tayley Yeah, I agree. My problem here is that I am usually a couple of weeks behind once I get to them, so I normally don't comment. I fixed that tonight by turning the notification bell on. I don't know why I didn't do that earlier since I always love her reactions. Sometimes I need just the reaction, not the deeper analysis of some of the other channels I frequent.
@@LeeKennison sometimes a smile is all the analysis I need. I like the notifications too.
@@LeeKennison here’s a pleasant flashback for ya. czcams.com/video/MH6vH61KFws/video.html
I think he's the best blues player ever... I think Eddie was the best pop/rock player ever... I think David Gilmore was the best psychedelic rock player ever... and obviously Jimmy page and Hendrix are up there for classic hard rock players... But Stevie literally attacked the blues, and no one can or will match his intensity... Another tragic death of a musician.. Great reaction. Thank you.
Had the absolute privilege of seeing him live twice. Simply, wow!!!
SRV played right down the road from me often and was my FIRST live show ever. (Age 16, fake ID, Austin, Texas 1980 ish...)
Me and my buddy stepped out between his set to smoke a doobie and wound up sharing it with Stevie and a band member.
When he found out I was just 16 he bolted back inside pretty quickly.
He sent a female companion over after the show to "get a joint" from me and she, in turn gave me a rolled up banner with the bands signatures on it and a "thanks for the J, man" note on it from Stevie, as well.
I take comfort knowing I witnessed the early days (about 13 times) of the great SRV and will always cherish this one chance meeting to share a moment in time (and a joint) with the greatest Electric Blues guitarist ever.
I love the pleasure you get from Great Musicians .
I love you Verdy! Please review "Riviera Paradise". You will love it as I love you. His last name is pronounced "Von". When will you play for me?
Verdy, you’ll love ‘Lenny’ (a love song he wrote for his wife) and ‘Little Wing’ (a Hendrix cover) both from this same concert at El Macambo, you should definitely check em out…:)
At first i thought, “OMG she doesn’t like it !!” ,,,, then soon realised, like everyone else who have had the pleasure to watch this absolute genius of a player, you were as blown away as the rest of us,,, BUT,,, what i loved the most was how you quickly picked up on how just great is voice is too !!! Not many mention his brilliant “soulful” vocals but you was straight on it, fantastic ! I truly enjoyed watching your reaction, one of my favourite “reaction” videos yet !!! Well done !! 😁😁😁👍 God Bless Stevie Ray ,,, RIP x 😍🎸👌🔥🔥🔥
I have watched this several times. I love your reaction. This guy is incredible.
If you get a chance, check out his live performance of "Look At Little Sister," during which he breaks a string, continues to play his lead line on other strings, and then seamlessly swaps guitars.
Austin 1989 I think.
He's the goat nobody can touch him
Merci beaucoup!!! Mon Québécois préféré peut enfin voir et entendre Stevie Ray Vaughan (Prononcé Vawn). Je suis tellement content de toi ce soir)))) There are many, many more SRV videos on CZcams and you cannot go wrong in reacting to any of them. I really love this: Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Voodoo Chile (Live From Austin, TX)
and for fun seeing him react to a broken string : The smoothest guitar switch ever
One of the greatest, and another gone too soon. SRV, Hendrix or Clapton, the best blues guitarist ever is in this group. ✌️❤️🎶
he is the greatest even Clapton when he heard SRV agreed to that.
Stevie was supposed to open for Clapton once & after hearing Stevie play Eric refused to play after him
You just witnessed the greatest blues guitarists / guitarist ever… he was a portal, a conduit of musical flow… I saw him play three times and was blow away every time… Clapton once wanted to walk out of venue because he said he couldn’t follow SRV
Watch him live at Austin City Limits… he breaks a string mid song, changes guitars, keeps playing and doesn’t miss a beat… friggin’ incredible.
You made me smile and laugh. I bought that video on vhs 20+ years ago. Had the same reaction. Check out the whole show. Every song is that level. Thanks for the flashback.
Had the great fortune to see Stevie Ray 3 times in concert. Each time was just blown away by his virtuosity. There will never be another like him.
it makes perfect sense after watching that..... my favorite version of this song .... tx 4 reacting... ✌😎
I can watch your reaction to this song 1000 times and I’ll never get over the pure joy in your face. Great reaction!!!!
Used to see Stevie Ray at place called Fitzgerald's in Houston TX back in the late 70s before he became a superstar🔥✌🤘
You lucky dog !!!
You could watch the entire El Mocambo show.. never puts ONE tone wrong!! Stevie Ray is AMAZING!!
I would think that Stevie made mistakes in his playing just like every other guitarist especially an improvising genius,, its just that no one would ever be able to tell because he knew how to use every sound and note and even if he landed somewhere he didnt want to be he just made it right,, we will never know and it doesnt matter because it always sounded amazing,,
Seeing this concert video when I was younger pretty much changed my life!
GREAT REACTION! I've heard that after Stevie Ray Vaughan plays, his guitar smokes a cigarette. 😄
