  • It has been a long time since I reacted to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Before listening to Voodoo Child, I had only ever heard Texas Flood. Even after hearing just one song by Stevie Ray he was automatically my favourite guitarist. The talent that Stevie Ray Vaughan shows off in both performances just proves that he is not from Earth. He is definitely from another planet!
    Stevie Ray Vaughan has both inspired me and made me want to quit practicing the guitar... Surely that just proves how much of a legend he is!
    Here is my reaction to hearing Stevie Ray Vaughan - Voodoo Child LIVE at El Mocambo for the first time. I hope you enjoy it!

    Since you like the blues, buy a whole album of someone and just sit and listen. Don't watch on You Tube. Don't even move from your seat. Sit back and listen to a whole album like we did when we bought an album from the record store and couldn't wait to get home to listen to the whole thing in one sitting.
    Buy a Stevie Ray Vaughn album. Immerse yourself buy sitting down, close your eyes and listen. Let the music fully envelop you.

      To get this correct, Clapton stopped on the freeway in England to listen to Stevie play, because he wanted to know who was playing. As for Clapton saying he thought about quitting, he had to follow Stevie at a blues festival. He said he couldn't play like Stevie, but the crowd didn't want to hear him play like Stevie, they wanted to hear him play like himself.

    The thing is, there isn't anybody like him because he never thought "Is there any point?" When he heard Jimi. He just did Jimi one better. That's swagger. And swagger is what it takes. I took Stevie's picture once. I was at the University of Michigan in 1985 (never went to class, got expelled), Stevie Ray Vaughan was playing atHoll Auditorium. By the time I scraped up enough money for tickets, the only ones left were behind a pillar or something. I didn't buy any tickets. But I sat outside the side stage door and listened to the whole show. Then I went around to the back stage doors and waited. For two hours. The bus was pulled up and there was about a five foot gap between the bus doors and the backstage doors. Finally Stevie came out, stoned out of his gourd. He blinked dramatically when my flash went off, but I got his pic. I kept it in an ancient book I had. Lost it on a house fire in 2009. 😢

    Okay, here's one you might like for your third SRV experience: Riviera Paradise, live from Austin TX. It's an instrumental Stevie wrote that pours directly out of his soul...after beating a drug & alcohol addiction that nearly killed him, Stevie dedicated it to others who were hurting and struggling with addiction, to offer comfort and hope. It's an absolute master class in guitar playing, but it's also a really intimate peek into Stevie as a man. The performance in Austin was just a year before he died, when Stevie was clean and sober, living a happy life and was recognized as a rising star & a peer among guitar legends. His band, Double Trouble had by then added keyboardist Reese Wynans to complement Tommy Shannon on bass and Chris Layton on drums. The 4 together were perfection. It's a must-see if you are a fan of SRV.

    The "other" guys in the band were a drummer and a bass player (& later keyboardist) who were known as "Double Trouble" when they played with Stevie.
    Double Trouble is an American blues rock band from Austin, Texas, which served as the backing band for singer-guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan. The group was active throughout the 1980s and contributed to reviving blues music, inspiring many later blues and rock acts. Formed in Austin, Texas in 1978, the group went through several early line-up changes before settling on a power trio consisting of Vaughan, Chris Layton (drums), Tommy Shannon (bass). They became a four-piece by 1985 after adding Reese Wynans (keyboards). Whilst with Vaughan they were billed Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. Rooted in blues and rock music, the group worked in various genres ranging from ballads to soul, often incorporating jazz and other musical elements.

    Stevie's older brother, Jimmy Vaughan, was a great guitarist as well - he had a band called The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Stevie wanted to be as good as his brother, but he ended up surpassing Jimmy. Stevie was obsessed with guitar - he was playing in bars in his teens, and would practice for hours on end - in cars on the way to whatever gig, in his room, wherever - just obsessed. You should read up on him. He loved the old Texas blues guitarists. I just found out about him about a year before he died. His career was on the up-swing, he'd just gotten clean and sober. He had been estranged from his brother and had re-connected, even putting out an album with him. Tragic.

    Mate, I saw SRV live in an outdoor amphitheatre at Sea World in San Diego California in late 1988. Best live show I have ever seen in 50 years of going to concerts. The entire show was fire. At one point Stevie Ray put on his wireless rig and walked out among the crowd (we were all seated). He stopped in a half dozen places to play. I got lucky and he happened to stop right in front of me. Got to watch the GOAT (for me anyway) shred a guitar solo from 10 ft away. My all time top moment in listening to music.

    I lived in Belfast for like 10 years and there was a blues night every Thursday night in The Empire. It was a residency by a guitar player called Rab McCullough who had played with Van Morrison, AC/DC and had opened for Jimi Hendrix when he played in Belfast in the 60's. His version of this song was unreal, but it was very much based on Stevie's cover which goes to show how great this version is. For someone to have opened for Hendrix to have adopted Stevie's version into his set was a pretty big compliment.

    I recall hearing a story from a musician that said most musicians get into the "zone" where the creative heavens open up and their just in it....every once in awhile. Stevie was in that zone every single performance.

    All his performances are amazing. He holds nothing back. The music flows right out of his soul through his guitar. In my book he is the best there ever was or will be.

    The SRV sound check is fantasic. He looks like he just woke up and a minute later he's destroying on guitar. Also gotta do the Jimi Hendrix original Voodoo Child for comparison.

    I forget how old I was (born '71), but was at my grandmother's house, in the 80s, staying the weekend, and she had cable TV. I was allowed to watch R movies on HBO and Cinemax. I was flipping channels and came upon a program called "Austin City Limits" that featured upcoming artists, and it was live. This night, the artist was SRV. I never changed the channel. He's been my GOAT every since.

    I would also like to add the double trouble are also supreme talents to be able to even keep up with him. This group was unbelievable. If you watch them they are just taking visual cues and listening to the music in the way he moves to be able to make the music and match him. That comes through mad skill and pure talent. Kudos to double trouble!

    I think you're a guitarist in your soul. I've watched so many reactions of people who don't play guitar & they love the guitarists but they don't Truly understand what they are seeing. I can see that u r Truly appreciating the talent, the feeling and everything that goes into being a great guitarist/musician. U GET it. And it's never too late to pick up an instrument. U don't need to be the next SRV to be an amazing guitarist. My husband didn't start playing until he was 19 and he is one of the most Phenomenal guitarists I've ever known - and I've been around musicians my entire life. It's all about the FEELING, man. Go for it. 🤘😝🤘

    The expression on your face was perfect, and how most people look when experiencing this performance for the first time! This is the gold standard for guitar playing, by a GOAT candidate. I would have given anything to have been in the audience that night!! You're right about Double Trouble, they had the most thankless and anonymous jobs in music! "Third Stone From the Sun" is another standout song from this show, and my favorite, "Lenny", is a thing of beauty!

  • @Pix2GoStudios
    @Pix2GoStudios Před měsícem

    I had the privilege to see him live twice. I'll always feel the Stevie didn't just want to play - he had to. It was what he needed to live. When he was on stage, it made him whole and complete in a way we can only hope to ever achieve. Absolute transcendence.

  • @edsonneves4659
    @edsonneves4659 Před měsícem +3

    Big reaction. Congratulations. "Life Without you" live at Capitol Theater is a recording that has competed for preference with Texas Flood Live El Mocambo. It's different, more spiritual, and with a long solo full of tricks. Stevie changes guitars during the song but most of those who reacted didn't notice despite the guitars being a different color.

  • @Theutus2

    Look for the video where he breaks a string. Keeps playing and eventually swaps out his guitar. Without missing any notes.
    Stevie's a wizard.

  • @FourFish47
    @FourFish47 Před měsícem +3

    This is a Jimi Hendrix cover. Jimi was SRV's idol, and honestly, I think he outdid him, at least with this song. No question he is the GOAT!!

  • @1aleckman1
    @1aleckman1 Před měsícem +2

    Hey man, love your reactions! Take a listen to this one. This is the sign of a true professional bad ass! He breaks a string around the 2 minute mark and keeps playing like nothing happened, and you don't even notice it until his guitar tech comes out and hands him another guitar. He switches up and never misses a beat. Have a great day!

  • @musickf

    He's considered one of, if not the best, Blues guitar players that's ever lived. The guitar he played could only be played by him, too. He used such high gauge strings no one else could even use it. His hand strength must have been next level. The reason he did this song is because he loved Jimi Hendrix, which is who originally wrote it. He gives homage to him through this song. A dvd is out there showing two different performances. One before he was famous and the other after he was a household name. He gives his all for both shows. The only real difference is the audience reaction. Prior to making it huge, they looked almost bored. This was after, I'm pretty sure. You can hear the crowd go crazy. Also, in one of the shows on the dvd, he plays guitar behind his back. Without missing a beat, and doing these same types of solos. It's unreal. Apparently his wife said he'd play in his sleep. Just a natural. He also advocated for sobriety. He had a huge drug problem, and not long after he got clean and sober he died in a helicopter crash. We lost out on SOOOO much good music when he died. He's my favorite Blues player, by far.

One of my favorite artists, cried like a baby when he died...if you want, he does this in session duo with Albert King , found it on CZcams a few years ago, Born Under A Bad Sign & Don' t You Lie To Me...pure f'n gold! Think you'de like...SRV- my favorite guitarist too... 💙 - Im 65, love seeing young people loving my 🎵 great reaction! 💙
