John Lee Hooker said “that white boy is goin to put me out of business”. B. B. King also said SRV was the BEST. Nothin left to say. GOAT
muddy waters said "this guy's got to be the best blues guitarist on earth, but that white stuff he takes is gonna kill him".......and a friend of mine has kept sayin' for years..."stevie ray is the reason why i started to play guitar and the reason why i gave up guitar....
He stopped using Cocaine 4 years before he died in the helicopter crash. Tell him what Albert King said about Stevie.
The man is a legend. The GOAT. It's been 30 years since God called him home because he wanted guitar lessons from Stevie. RIP
R.I.P to a Great
@@watchbizmatik Always do Stevie live, live is always better and each performance is different.
God called him WAY too soon Jimbo
"I ain't never seen no shit like this, and that's fact." One of the best & simplest ways to describe SRV I've ever heard.
😂😂😂
What we wouldn't give to see Stevie live today.
i have health crap…i’d give my life to be healthy and see SRV❤️…no regrets.
There is a reason why he is the GOAT. You have just seen the reason. He set the bar so high, that no one will ever beat it. When I first seen his skill level, I said that here is a man that got bored with the guitar, and had to find ways to make it interesting for himself. I thoroughly believe that the guitar is actually part of him. The music comes out so effortlessly. It's like his soul is speaking to us when he plays.
I'm 63 years old and have been playing guitar from age 13 ... and when watch Stevie play ... it's like ... "WOW ... I don't even know what I'm doing playing guitar! Now please don't think I'm bragging... when I was 16 ... I taught myself to play the intro the "Johnny B. Good " behind my neck ... and did so at a couple of gigs I play at in the 70's... but it was just the "intro " to Johnny B. Good ... which was just about 2 minutes long ... and that's all I could play! Stevie's playing was "Super Human" ... like his hands and fingers were part of his guitar! Stevie Ray Vaughn... the GOAT ... period!
Same here, I'm 56, and been playing from age 8,I can't come close to SRV.
He said in an interview onetime that every time he goes on stage he gives it all he has and plays like it was his last time because he wanted people to remember him that way.
That’s a great way to approach things.. I can tell he is all in just by his facial expressions
@@watchbizmatik Ironically he was killed in a helicopter crash leaving from a performance.
Saw him with Jeff beck the fire and fury tour at Madison Square garden 6 months before the helicopter crash. RIP stevie.
Jeffrey Lemal you was so
Lucky to have seen his magic in person
@Thomas Bell I bet that was one killer concert I would have love to have seen it
To put it into perspective 1st hes playing 13 gauge strings would rip a normal person's fingers apart hes playing lead and rhythm at the same time singing and playing behind his back game over.... And he could channel Jimi Hendrix. I wish people would stop being so Caught up on race because we're all one consciousness One love
That’s just wild
I absolutely LOVE. Your reaction! Stevie is The GOAT!! He was from Dallas and is a Legend here. RIP....Gone way too soon!! Ms B
The dude next to him, is trying to make sure he follows him..Stevie, is known to never play the same song twice....his band Double Trouble, were experts at flowing with him, that's why they had to Show Up at Every show! =P
Correct. Well put
Tommy (the bassist) Said he was watching stevie so close that night is because he had enough coke in him to kill a horse, boys were keeping an eye on him haha
He has one of the most distinctive sounds on the guitar.. you can pick his sound out from anywhere..
It’s wild
Him and Carlos
Truth I've seen him live once, you hear him play you could pick him out of a crowd of guitar players blindfolded.
It was his ability to put vibrato on every note. Fingers of steel.
Stevie Ray was/is one of my favourite guitarists and was partly responsible for me becoming a musician, but it must be noted that without Hendrix and Albert King, two guitarists to which Stevie owed an ENORMOUS debt, there would not have been Stevie Ray as we knew him. Their achievements changed the guitar forever. Stevie was standing on the shoulders of GIANTS. Always remember the masters who went before.
When Stevie Ray played this gig, he was so broke he literally didn't know where his next meal was coming from, yet he played like a GOD!
musiclover9361 that is how he played every time he said every time he steps on that stage he leaves it all on the stage he wanted people to remember him for a good show .
@@shirleybuffington6420, sometimes when he had a bad gig, he would say, "Man, I played like a white guy tonight."
musiclover9361 I would not doubt that
How is that possible? I don’t know much about his life, but I thought he was a huge star at this point?
@@lolawants2008, no he wasn't. His debut album was 'Texas Flood'. He was only able to afford to record it because Jackson Browne saw him at Montreux the previous year (82) and gifted him some free downtime at his personal studio.
Stevie is other level, he doesn't just play from the soul, he sends his soul to and through every soul in the room, until you're all connected as one with the music. It's was the most beautiful thing.
All the members of Double Trouble were exceptionally talented. The bassist, Tommy Shannon, is one of the most talented Blues-Rock bassist. He pretty much invented the hard bass sound of Rock-Blues music of the late 60's into the 1990's.
No doubt. Tommy was playing bass for the late Johnny Winter when Stevie was just cutting his teeth on the guitar.
@@craigwiggins253, Tommy is the GOAT of bass for the Blues-Rock sound, without a doubt. Many don't know, he was Johnny's go-to bassist and even played at Woodstock. If Tommy wouldn't have been kicked out by Johnny for drugs and alcohol -- something Johnny never used -- Tommy could have been ever better.
@@craigwiggins253, Johnny never used anything more than a cigarette.
John Green dude, Johnny winter was a longtime heroin addict. I love Johnny and SRV but sobriety wasn’t Johnny’s thing. I believe he recovered though but Johnny was hardcore.
If I could be any musician in the world I would be Tommy Shannon, he got to watch SRV play every night!
RIP ~ SRV
I was fortunate enough to see SRV live a few times. You were either dancing your ass off or standing their in awe, paralyzed because you couldn't believe the genius that you were witnessing. RIP SRV! Thank you reactors for keeping his music alive and current for the younger generation.
Great reaction. Always fun watching a young person discover Stevie for the first time. He leaves everyone speechless. Enjoy the ride my man!!
Man, thank you for seeing the dedication and Talent this man possessed. You gave a great reaction to this STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN 💜 Performance God bless you mane 😘💜😘
Your REACTION and description of STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN is the best I've ever heard anyone react to 💜💜💜💜💜 God bless you brother 😘. Love it I love your PASSION for the MUSIC 💜 RIP STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN 💜💜💜💜💜
They recorded something special on that stage that night, brother. Epic! GOAT!
All facts
SRV: The baddest cat in the jungle.
He’s proud as a peacock man! Hence his chest tattoo (a peacock)
Saw SRV in concert...yup it was that awesome
Hendrix though was king of the jungle
Check out "The sessions" with albert King & SRV. Thats where Albert KIng officially declares SRV as one of the best blues guitarists of all time.
Facts. If you look at them playing Texas flood during that session.... Albert literally stopped playing and was just smiling watching. One of my favorite moments ever.
@@factsonly5994"youre already pretty good, youre pretty good, but you gon be better"
One of Stevies very best performances, and probably the best blues guitar performance we will ever see - JMO
When I watch Stevie I tear up every time. He was a truly very special individual!!! God Gifted for sure. I hate when people are so quick to comment about his drug use when honestly I don't think it matters. He proved to people during one of his last Shows just how talented he was even SOBER!!! He plays quicker and cleaner simply AMAZING to see and appreciate the man and his love and passion for MUSIC!!! check out the version of VOODOO CHILD published by Visual Artist Frank Bonilla
Not to mention that he played with heavy guage strings and bass frets, he had such strong hands
He was absolute perfection! I miss him every day! I saw him live 3 times. He " is"music!
Your face when he put it behind his back made me laugh. I was just waiting for it.
He was so beautiful.
Lucky you nice!!
"Stevie Ray was a Master Craftsman of Blues Guitar, He owned every note he played and played every note with Passion" .
Very passionate
I saw SRV live in '84, knew nothing about except he was supposed to be very good. I was devastated. It was a life changing experience. I bought a guitar the next day and wound up studying classical guitar, played for decades, and got good till I got arthritis 3 years ago. SRV is the man!
At least this man listens and doesn't feel the need to pause and clown every five seconds.
Thanks fam
And that’s why you always watch live versions for SRV videos. John Mayer inducted Stevie to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and in his speech, John described watching Stevie is like watching “Rage without the anger” and I’ve always thought that is the perfect description of Stevie’s performances... EVERY single one of them! ❤️🔥💪🏽
STV brings tears to my eyes every time I see him play. I can feel/see/hear his soul pouring out of him through his guitar!! He is the GOAT!!
We lost SRV 30 years ago today. It was one of those moments where you remember exactly what you were doing when you found out. I was blessed to see him in concert in 1985. Thanks for reacting to the greatest Blues-Rock guitarist to ever walk this Earth.
You’re authentic and it’s a treat to watch your reactions to greatness. You FEEL it! You GET it! You LOVE it! This one left you tongue tied! 🤣🥰❤️
Thank you Im late but i just read this
One of the best reactions I've seen to SRV. You were able to explain that feeling you get inside listening to the really passionate artists. Tastes in music may vary but the way it touches us is universal.
I was blessed with seeing SRV in person and thanks to Joe Cocker for ditching the gig cause Stevie played 4 about 4 hours! Best I’ve ever seen! R.I.P. Stevie
Man I know that was an insane experience
There was Michelangelo and his marble; Jordan and the basketball; Leonardo and his paints; Waldner and the ping pong ball; Bach and the organ; Usain and 100 meters ... and Stevie Ray Vaughan and his guitar. He's in that class - the greatest at what they did.
BEST that ever walked the planet...period! Taken so young, RIP Brother x
SRV is my no.1 guitar 🎸 player of all time.
I can’t say that yet but I can say I’m super impressed 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 he is a weapon with that thing
R.I.P. Stevie Ray Vaughn Texas Loves you . 💪🎸🤘
The question as to listen to audio or watch live is easy. Watch live‼️. You have just begun to go down the SRV rabbit hole and you can just not believe your eyes or ears. People say he never plays the same song twice in the same way. Actually he never plays the same way once. So no matter what venue it will always be different. Can't go wrong. 🎶🎶🎶. Welcome to the wonderful and magical world of SRV🎶
Loved your reactions, especially at the end. You had no words, I saw him live at a college campus in the 80’s .I got about ten feet from him, stopped dead in my tracks, turned to the kid next to me , we both just looked at one another, shook our heads up and down , nodded , then turned back to Stevie. No words.
ANYTHING you do with SRV, do it live. Live is the way to go! Always live.
Here's the thing, Stevie Ray fans genuinely love him. He showed respect to everyone that was ever around him. He had the sweetest demeanor and it was genuine. He was an old soul. He never thought he was a big deal. He was very humble. He worked very hard to make himself a better person and make the world a better place. He was pure love. Nothing but love. Right before his death, when he was finally starting to receive some recognition , he was told that he would be performing with B.B. King. He'd played with him before, but this was going to be just him & BB. He thought he was opening for him. When they got there to set up, he saw that his name was top billing & BB's name was 2nd. He got mad, and made them put BB's name on top. # RESPECT
Everything should be live when it comes to Stevie you never know when he’s going to shock you, been listening to Stevie since the early 80s as a kid but watching puts another level to it
Back in 98’ my son was 6. He knew every word to this song. Texas Flood and Take Me Out To The Ball Game. SRV is my personal all time favorite. Def the GOAT. No questions asked, hands down! Period
there's every other guitar hero we all know and love.....and then there's Stevie Ray Vaughan RIP brother!
I absolutely love your Stevie reactions. Its a beautiful thing to witness a new fan being born.
Thank you so much
Now you understand why 30 years later people watch his videos in awe.
I heard Stevie for the first time and said WHAAAAT! I was floored and had to know more about him. I bought his CD's, and played them full blast everywhere. And you know even if you play this a thousand times it gets better and better. That my friends is legendary!
Entertainment. He knows that being a showman was part of entertainment, and he wasn't just a musician - but a showman, too. This song is transcendant - he goes from medium to fast to slow blues, and back out again. It's a journey, just listening.
I did have the pleasure of seeing SRV live, it changed my life!!!
Always go live with Stevie. He is always better Live :)
Yeah I just realized that lol
That dude was great. If somebody has their initials on their guitar, they’re gonna tear it up. R.I.P SRV❤️
Always do Stevie live you never know what he will surprise you with
I had the honor to see SRV in 1985 when I was a nubile 17 year old punk. Changed my life. Been a blues freak ever since. Been playing the strings ever since then. Trying to imitate this kind of mastery. Alas I cannot. I can do a great job faking it but some people are just blessed by God to have this kind of incredible talent and passion.
Ive seen every reaction to this video i could..you sir are hands down by far the best reaction ive seen so far..just honest emotion and wonderment as to how its possible for any person, male or female master his or her instrument with such feeling and perfection..nice.
I appreciate that.. Thank you
Back in the earlier days of music artists were just that. They put their heart and souls into their music and playing sometimes for years without recognition. These days its not the artists but the studio technicians. Mixers and auto tune have replaced work at your craft musicians. Pretty faces and sellable packaging for the money and not the love of it. SRV would still play the same way if he was on a big stage or dimly lit dive bar stage.
Love watching people react to the spin, behind the back, behind the head and playing with his teeth reactions. Stevie was the greatest of all time, you have to just go through and find as many of his videos as possible and just review them there are a lot even though his career was tragically cut short. RIP Stevie 30 years ago
Believe it or not when I saw him play twice back in the day, tickets were only $13.50-! Stevie owned that guitar when he played, he put every ounce of passion and soul he had into it and it always showed especially on heavy blues numbers like this. He is a true guitar legend.
Wow that’s just crazy but I understand how show business works so it makes sense.
Watching your reaction to the late great SRV was awesome. When people realize his genius its a joy all over again♥️♥️♥️
Greatest Live Performance of All Time!!!!!! NO ONE COMES CLOSE!!!!
It was TRULY enjoyable seeing you watch that. I've been a guitar player since 85 and I had that same reaction years ago and it's the same every time i see it. Black dudes and chicks that see this for the first time have such a strong reaction because they were raised on music with soul and blues is black music and to see a white boy with that kinda soul is relateable. Steve
💗 💖 💘 💝 💟... 💔 RIP Legend... Great reaction!!
I hope he got consent for what he did to that guitar ❤️❤️
Number One was his First Wife! 💕
Foreal
Always do Stevie Ray live and dont close your eyes for a minute or you will miss something great!! Lol Try Tin Pan Alley w/ Johnny Copeland live!! Its amazing!!💞💞💞💞💞💞
Always listen to Stevie live...I was at his last concert in Wisconsin when the helicopter he was in crashed. It was devastating...that man was truly gifted.
Thank you for the video.....he's something else.....I mentioned having seen him and you emphasized that....this was a live show. Yeah!
He is the GOAT! Legendary RIP Stevie Ray 🙏
They back then, LIVED to play ❤️👍👍👍
I can watch people watch Stevie Ray all day long.. I was lucky enough to see him live twice.. even though I never went to see him live... 😂
We love it when somebody who don't know finds out ✌️♥️
Randy Rhoads is the one that made me pick up the guitar and learn. Found out, I could play.
Then one day, I heard ZZ Top. Old ZZ. BLUE JEAN BLUES got me into blues. So I took it all the way back to Robert Johnson.
Then one day, I heard Stevie and man! I couldn't rap my head around it. It was like this universal energy that some how he was able to tap into.
Let's just say, it's been 27 years since I picked up the guitar.
I'm still learning his stuff man
G.O.A.T
Couldn't agree with you more on the quality of music these days and yes Stevie was and always will be a 100% Legend.
The guy is next level 😳
Lenny Live at El Mocambo is a MUST!
Its coming
SRV must always be listened to and watched live. His greatness cannot be captured on studio recordings.
The licks he plays aren't revolutionary or new, as a matter of fact they were well known decades before SRV came along. What made SRV great was his intensity and sincerity in playing those licks. He was a true bluesman who revered all the great bluesmen who came before him.
Thank You Biz. SRV truly is the greatest of all time
SRV ~ 🎸🐐
MUST-SEE SRV vids:
1) Life Without You at Capitol Theater
2) Voodoo Child at Starwood Theater in Nashville
this is my favorite STV performance. he is the GOAT
Not even being in the band with this dude, imagine having to take the stage AFTER him. Imagine having him open for you! How do you follow that????
There is an autobiography on him and his brother who plays the guitar also and was so popular to. When you get a chance watch it. It gives you insight that this man as a little boy dedicated himself to playing it so fantastic that it was an extension of himself. Awesome..... I watched him back in the day on TV but never got the opportunity to see him live. Thank God for these videos!!! RIP Stevie❤️
Saw him at a club in San antonio called reeds red derby....then 8 years later saw him at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio with Duke Jupiter as the opening act....Man was in Love with his Guitars and made love to them every Damn Night....Incredible
Always do Stevie Ray live! I saw him in 1987 and he is a guitar God! Nevermind he's one of the kings of Texas blues and I love Texas Blues!
there are no words to describe how good Stevie was
There was one SRV talent level. RIP. Voodoo Child was my favorite song. I too, came late to the knowing of him. I have to say... mind blowing. He played so effortlessly. Chrck out his brother ( also any amazing guitarist until Stevie came up behind him )
You need to listen to Tin Pan Alley w Johnny Copeland and SRV💯⁉️⁉️
Thanks I will add that to my list.. 🙌🏿🙌🏿
💗 💖 💘 💝 💟 ☮️!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In an age of "artists" chosen for looks more than talent who cannot sing their own songs (which they have rarely written) live because their music is so enhanced by production, SRV is the pinnacle of artist who not only wrote their own songs but played instruments very well AND sang live like they sounded on CDs. Bob Seger is another like that, but SRV pushes it to heights nobody else could even attempt, playing blues guitar behind his back better than most ever could hope to normally. Rest in peace SRV, gone way too soon!
~when Stevie Ray Vaughan played behind his back, it seemed to provide a more intimate space for him to sing to the audience.
Wish SRV was still around. I'd ask him how the view is from the top of the mountain...GOAT 🐐
His bass player said that for every emotion Stevie had it came out in his music.
Why do people hate for reactors to stop the video? I'm here for your reaction. If heard the song and seen the video. Keep doing it your way.
I'd actually recommend a different Hendrix cover, 'Little Wing', from this same show as 'Texas Flood'.
UNBELIEVABLE! I first watched some of Stevie Ray Vaughan a few days ago and he blew my mind with how he really part of the guitar. I found a documentary which said he was almost as good at 12 years old. His brother is all so a well known guitar player, just not in the same class as Stevie. I also found a couple of videos of Stevie with the "Duke" and with "BB King". I do not know how I missed Stevie when he was first putting out recordings, my teen age years ran through the 50"s and 60"s, I am guessing I was too busy to pay attention to music after that time- my loss!
I have enjoyed watching other people watch the Texas Flood video for the first time.
I love your initial reaction dude the best!
Awesome reaction!! You give " shook " a new meaning! 😂😉🥰
Since you have done TEXAS FLOOD and LENNY from El MOCAMBO you definitely should go ahead and do LITTLE WING, live at EL MOCAMBO. As you can see this had to be a once in a lifetime show. I would have loved to have been there 💜💜💜🔥🎸🔥RIP STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN 💜
Little wing is next. 🙌🏿🙌🏿 and thank you for always watching the videos
With Stevie it’s best to close your eyes and let him take you to his world.
I had a chance to see him in '89 in Cincinnati with Jeff Beck. NEVER heard of SRV. When I heard of the 'Copter crash in Wisconsin I prayed it wasn't Clapton. 1995 I bought SRV live at Austin City Limits. BLEW MY MIND!!!! One of the regrets in my life...
I love it, you just take a drank, and give a moment of silence......my man you know whats up no matter what type music.
Never close your eyes when watching Stevie play! 😊
Thank you. Greatness is always appreciated
Stevie always played with his eyes closed to feel the music!!
