He just woke up. Walks out on stage with his Cheetah duster over his pajamas. Yawns, scratches his butt, picks at his nose. He's wearing snakeskin cowboy boots and his big white cowboy hat. When you see a man dressed like that on stage, you know shit's about to get real. RIP to our Texas son. We love him and miss him everyday. 🕊
"Only this cat could make that coat look cool". You're the only reactor who would come up with that line! Love your reactions and sense of humor. Keep up the good work.
Same, I was 23, pregnant and couldn't go to his last tour. On my way to work when they announced he died. I sobbed, my boss sent me home, I was 8 months pregnant.
Eric Clapton said that there was something almost supernatural about Stevie. He said he was a conduit for the music. It was basically coming from somewhere else, but through him.
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. His band members, Reece Wynans on keyboards, Tommy Shannon on bass guitar, Chris Layton on drums. Can you imagine being an employee at this venue and coming in to work to see SRV and Double Trouble giving you your own personal concert? No one better than SRV. Thank you for this reaction. One reaction for you to do would be Life Without you live at the Capital Theater. You will be amazed!
@@kennethmeeker6369 no, it’s not the same. I was in Austin in the ‘80s, and when Stevie died the spirit went out of it. No one saw it coming, and it’s so sad.
He's not even woke up yet! He comes in wiping sleep from his eyes and sucking down orange juice. SPOILE!! Stevie is right handed!! He's playing left handed here!!
@@deltonkillen8024 the video is reversed. Stevie doesn't play lefthanded, nor does anyone else in the band. Also, his No. 1 Strat isn't lefthanded either.
The greatest! Technical, Complexity, Clarity, Difficulty. The most humbled, gentle, kindest man I’ve ever known. Very smart checking this out! Audio’s low because the Soundcheck was for his guitars.
Saw Stevie Ray 4th row center in VA uears ago....had tears Rollin down my cheeks...his guitar was so powerful and beautiful...dug right down to my very core❤️
SRV's love for music (especially the blues) was remarkable, as was his devotion to the guitar. His admiration of excellent musicianship and innovation inspired and enabled his reach for excellence, helped by his huge hands and mad skills, his good ear, his gift for improvisation and songwriting, badass blues vocals, and a captivating style and stage presence. Beyond that was his humble nature, his sense of humor, and his genuine heart.... SRV was definitely one of a kind. His very being was a tribute to every one of his idols, including his brother Jimmie Vaughan, many bluesmen like Albert King and Lonnie Mack, and, of course... the incredible Jimi Hendrix. IMO, Stevie Ray Vaughan's own legacy of music and character stands on its own merit. We are blessed!
Stevie plays through his body! He can't stop playing each song to all the music energy exits his body! That's why he plays 80%-90% of his music with his eyes closed!
I think it was in the first biography that came out after his death where someone said, Some guitar players are possessed by their guitars. Stevie's guitars are possessed by him. I love that.
Grew up in Buffalo and used to see many shows in Canada. The drinking age was 19 so it was easy to get into clubs under age. My buddy took me to a place called Elmocambo in 1983 to see Stevie. I was 16 and had no idea who he was but I loved Jimi Hendrix . Wow I was blown away and did not realize how influenced Stevie was by Jimi. life long Fan after that show and seen him many many times over the years. little did I know that front row at a tiny outside venue in NY would be the last time. another great Texas blues guitarist Johnny Winter opened up and Stevie ended with Jimi Hendrix Voodoo Child. two weeks later he was killed in the helicopter cash. what a loss . He truly was one of the best.
Unfortunately I was never able to meet him before he passed. I didn’t make it to Nashville until the early 1990’s. He passed before I became a studio musician but I know people who knew him and they all say he was an amazing human being. I just know his guitar playing skills were unrivaled. I’ve been playing for almost 40 years and he’s still so far ahead of me it’s comical. Eric Clapton said he was even embarrassed to play with him he was so amazing lol.
I am totally blessed to have seen him twice, the second time from the sixth row!! Everything SRV did was with incredible passion and his band Double Trouble carried the groove every night!!
He spent most of his life playing from the time he got up till the time he went to bed...and then he dreamed about playing...His older brother was a top player in Texas(and a truly great guitarist to this day) as he grew up and he just played the little brother role until one day, he didn't...
"Ain't Gonna Give Up on Love"-live at Capital Theatre highlights his songwriting, vocals, & a flaming solo...much appreciated by the crowd & Stevie gives a smile to the cheers. He had thick forearms, very large hands that mastered the heavy gauge strings.
SRV ~ 🎸🐐 THE goat of all goats I've read several comments stating that Jimi was Stevie's idol and that's only half true. Albert King, Stevie's godfather, was his #1 idol. Period. Yes, Jimi was too, but Albert was his main man. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Legend has it ,He rolled out the sack at 2:00 in the afternoon, made the soundcheck at 2:30, after brushing his teeth with a shot of Wild Turkey and chasing it with a Shiner, SRV is the greatest Bluesman Texas has ever produced, and he went on to play a 4 hour set, after this exhibition.🤠and just saying, those are Tony Lama High-Tops in the silver Anaconda skin with walking heels. Peace and my face hurts after every time I watch this from the stink coming outta my Speakers.
“The Cat in the Hat with a Strat” Even though he had built up tremendous callouses, those finger slides would sometimes rip them to shreds. Stevie would just super-glue them back up to stop the bleeding and go right back to playing.
I watched this before and what struck me was it looked like he just rolled out of bed yawned grabbed the guitar and went from zero to 60 in a nano second. I can't imagine being that good. It must have taken years of practice and God given talent to get to that level. Playing guitar is really hard to do. No way I could ever get the hang of it.
I haven't played guitar since basically my daughter was born. Hes one of the only ones who has made a good cover of voodoo child I respect this man greatly
@@williamcabell142 Hendrix is weird because he actually wasn't any good technically speaking. His knowledge of music theory was limited and he used the pentatonic scale, a simplistic blues scale. What sets Jimi apart from the rest is that he didn't seem to create music persay, but rather was the music. In many ways his lack of music theory was beneficial because he did not have the limitations that come with preconceived knowledge. He had a lot of feelings within him that he struggled to process and his emotions and music became one entity. When coupled boundless creativity the result was him being a pioneer. The vibrational wavelengths of raw emotion that he coaxed from his guitar ultimately brought to the table a sound and vibe that no one had heard before. The other weird thing is that he did really weird things to manipulate the sounds a guitar could make to a degree that some of it is extremely difficult to replicate with any precision. There's a reason he did so many Hendrix covers and also why Jimi was one of his biggest idols and influences. Without Jimi, Stevie would not be who he is. But you're not wrong, from technical standpoint Stevie is better guitarist.
I'm loving these SRV reactions. You mentioned how strong his hands must be and you're right! His friends have commented on how strong and big his hands were even though he wasn't a big guy at all. He was only 5'5" or 5'6"-ish. But he also played with super thick strings that other guitarists wouldn't dare play with. 😁 just some fun info for you. Aldo, check out "Life Without you" live at Capitol Theater.
@@funkleberryfinn123 No. 13's are 13's, tuning down a ½ step doesn't relieve that much string tension. His fingertips were blackened from his using super glue to seal up the split callouses on his fingertips after a show.
@@donegan2comcast He also set his strings higher off the fretboard and had minimal height on the fret wire. His guitars were hard to play for anyone but him.
@@bthomas518 he played the early stuff using 13 to 56 but tuned down to E flat. Still very heavy. Towards the end he was using 11 to 50 according to Rene Martinez. Still pretty heavy for most folks.
FYI, Stevie Ray was also known for using extremely heavy gauge strings. Although in his later years he started using thinner strings, possibly influenced by B.B. King.
I’m almost sure the wah-wah pedal he’s using toward the end on “Say What!” (Soul To Soul) used to belong to Jimi Hendrix. Stevie’s older brother Jimmie’s band The Chessmen opened a couple of shows in Texas for Hendrix, and Jimmie bought a broken wah-wah pedal from Hendrix that he said cost him $50, fixed it, and gave it to Stevie, who he knew loved Hendrix. I know he used it in the studio, and it sounds the same.
Best wake up or warm up or sound check ever. It reminds of that scene in the cold shot video when the IV goes right into Stevie’s veins…let there be light 💡
Scuttle Butting, He did this just to warm up, and then he really plays something "Ain't Gone an Give Up on Love" Ya, Ya. Here comes the slow stuff. Then I hear a little Mike Bloomfield in the solo, Stevie pays a little respect, precious. ;-)
All his strings are significantly thicker than most guitarists,I can't remember what gauge but they say he had big strong hands and that he'd always break strings,others couldn't play his guitar,and he still moves them strings like they are nothing
To say that Dallas' favorite son, Stevie Ray Vaughn was the best blues guitarist or even the best guitarist ever, would draw little criticism. He used heavy gauge guitar strings that most would be unable to play. Cherish what he has given us because sadly we lost him in 1990.
SRV on guitar, Jerry Lee Lewis on piano. Those are 2 I never tire of seeing perform live. (Jerry Lee got famous as a rocker, but his honky tonk stuff is excellent. He has great material on Austin City Limits.)
Last of the Texas Bluemen. SRV was steeped in the music from golden age of rock and old Bluesmen. Not sure when or if we'll see another of this natural genius again.
It's FUNNY watching this in a LEFT HANDED PERSPECTIVE.......I WAS THERE AND SAW IT IN FRONT OF MY FACE hahahaha......I'm in the grey sweatshirt behind RENE as the guitar change happens on the side stage on the 3rd song.....

The performance was even cooler than the garb, by orders of magnitude! (And his threads were slick, no doubt!)
Yep.🤠
Beautiful description

his swag!!!!!!!!
I can’t watch Stevie without getting teary eyed! Damn
I hear you! Each note, is a tear shed!

❤Stevie's death killed all of us. But, we can cary are love for him and the band forever😢

I agree. I saw Stevie in 84/85 and I often think the guitar was playing him...

That really is just a sound check, and it's better than some artists' concerts! 😊👏
This is actually "Scuttle Buttin", not an improv jam. The song is super dope. Just commenting for clarification.
@@sleepyboypeanut Thanks! 👍
@@guido4231 No argument there! 😊👍
This wasn't a record. This was an actual sound-check. Someone standing around with a small cam-recorder started filming. A small gem
Remember, this wasn’t a performance…it was merely a sound check!
He played with so much passion it was almost too much for my heart to bear. Sure do miss him.
The greatest! Technical, Complexity, Clarity, Difficulty. The most humbled, gentle, kindest man I’ve ever known. Very smart checking this out!
Audio’s low because the Soundcheck was for his guitars.
SRV’s sound checks are better than 99% of music out there today.
Just makes me smile
that's how he came off the shelf.

THE ELMO!! yeah, it's still there, palm tree neon sign and everything. It is more an event place now and dance studio during the week.
"I got a feeling this is gonna be good". Understatement of the decade!
Make that the understatement of the century.
I Love Stevie Ray and miss him everyday

I would have given my left leg to have seen the tour with Stevie and Jeff Beck. Now they're trading solos in heaven, God rest their souls.
I am totally blessed to have seen him twice, the second time from the sixth row!!
Everything SRV did was with incredible passion and his band Double Trouble carried the groove every night!!

Greatest soundcheck ever from the King himself
That wah wah is "Say What" It's on his Soul to Soul album! You have to hear it!!!! Sorry, I got excited. LOL

Stevie is the man, Number1 in my book!
“The Cat in the Hat with a Strat”
Even though he had built up tremendous callouses, those finger slides would sometimes rip them to shreds. Stevie would just super-glue them back up to stop the bleeding and go right back to playing.
Yeah, I tried that once when mine split. I will tell you what... that'll make ya dance in a circle and scream like a little girl.
When I first heard "The Sky Is Cryin'", by SRV, I fully realized why the guitar exists!!!
To adjust the room in a sound check, Stevie went real to get it right! The GOAT!
Love my Stevie and Double Trouble! They give 100% no matter what!
Just jammin'. This is what real music played by human beings sounds like.
This is actually "Scuttle Buttin", not an improv jam. The song is super dope. Just commenting for clarification.
@@sleepyboypeanut his music had freedom built in.
True, that.
THIS is just a sample of WHY he is the GOAT !
So few gifted people pass through this world. stevie was definitely one of those.

@@jeremymcafee1371 I noticed that too and wondered if the video is flipped?
@@rayj1011 I have no idea
SRV = GOAT
I have never seen this before. It's fascinating. Thanks for putting it across my radar, brother.
He had just woken up as well. From asleep to this. He played with some of the best blues guitarist in the world. His band was Double Trouble.
When it came to guitar playing . . .
He was THE Master.
He had his own style . be it music or how
He dressed. 💖👑
Yes ma'am!.. There are guitar players and then there are maestros!.. my favs are SRV
EVH and HENDRIX!
God Rest them✌️💛🤘
He had Albert King...style he copied
@letsgomets002 I was under the impression he blended his heros with his playing. Good stuff.
That bass is like thunder!!
I haven't played guitar since basically my daughter was born. Hes one of the only ones who has made a good cover of voodoo child I respect this man greatly
He’s better the Hendricks! Just my humble opinion!

Depends on your preferred genre. A KMFDM soundcheck is effing badass!!
You have absolutely no idea how loud he was playing. He pushed all of his gear to the limit.

And this is the sound check.

The war war peddle was given to Steve by Hendricks family after he went to the family to ask if he was allowed to play Jimis songs.
When I see SRV on video, it makes me glad I caught 3 shows in the 80s.
Going this hard at sound check goes to show you he would play for free.... He just loves to play!!!
Just saw this!!! You realize he is a right handed player!! Geeesh!!! Always amazing.
3:46 Stevie is actually correcting his drummer and finally gets the down beat emphasis at 4:04
Sir welcome to the One and Only Stevie Ray Vaughan !!!
You’re Welcome
The greatest of all time
Best wake up or warm up or sound check ever. It reminds of that scene in the cold shot video when the IV goes right into Stevie’s veins…let there be light 💡
He literally just got out of bed off the bus.And this is what he does amazing
Don't mess with The Jacket. I had a skirt and vest of the same I wore in first grade. I ROCKED it!
Mind-boggling
GREATEST GUTARIST EVER !!! AND HIS BADASS BAND !!! SRV ,NOBODY COMPARES !!!
Scuttle Butting, He did this just to warm up, and then he really plays something "Ain't Gone an Give Up on Love" Ya, Ya. Here comes the slow stuff. Then I hear a little Mike Bloomfield in the solo, Stevie pays a little respect, precious. ;-)
Stevie Ray Vaughan: Live At The El Mocambo.. my favourite recordings. Shame there's no complete concert on YT anymore.
SRV is one of my dad's favorites he is one of the best
Reese broke his seat. Hit the floor.
Welcome to the SRV fan club
I hope you notice he is playing lefty, upside down like Hendrix
I saw him live twice and he was mesmerizing
Saw him more times that I could count in Austin, Tx. So loud your ears would almost bleed. Would still be ringing two days later.
Thank the Lord someone recorded it!
Check out SRV at Austin City Limits back in 1983 and 1989.🥃😎👌
He would play like that in the back of the Old Milk Truck they went to the Gigs with.
I was 15. Got tickets to see him, before he famous. I’m 52… and have never seen his like since.
"Only this cat can make that jacket look cool"--no pun intended, literally.
First piece is Scuttle Buttin'. It's an instrumental masterpiece.
All his strings are significantly thicker than most guitarists,I can't remember what gauge but they say he had big strong hands and that he'd always break strings,others couldn't play his guitar,and he still moves them strings like they are nothing
He was playing 13s for his early career but someone convinced him to tone down to 11s by the end for the health of his fingers lol
13ga
13
One of the artists i really regret not seeing......and i had several chances to see him....

@@letsgomets002 In your opinion. And since you like the Mets, I used to watch them in Shea Stadium.
SIR, God given is a certainly the right description.
I sat through 3 of these sound checks it was like a concert
B. B. King Quote
"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."
Reece broke his chair, that’s why they stopped and were laughing. They had to get him something else to sit on.
Literally rolled out of bed, got dressed and wings it
SRV on guitar, Jerry Lee Lewis on piano.
Those are 2 I never tire of seeing perform live.
(Jerry Lee got famous as a rocker, but his honky tonk stuff is excellent. He has great material on Austin City Limits.)
Welcome to the SRV rabbit hole. RIP🌹
are you noticing that he's playing left handed? he usually played RIGHT!!! 🔥🔥🔥
He was playing right handed. The video is flipped for some reason. Noticed it on another Polo video.
It's got to be a reversed image
Any catch that film is flipped and appears to make him a left handed player . Best 🎸 🎸 player ever . Gone way to soon 😥😥
Double Trouble was the band that played with SRV, always.
Last of the Texas Bluemen. SRV was steeped in the music from golden age of rock and old Bluesmen. Not sure when or if we'll see another of this natural genius again.
I would say Billy gibbons is the last
They are all gone now. Pity no one has stepped up.
Not the last ,we have more here in Texas .
You know he actually plays right handed?? I have been a lifetime fan. Never seen this video
You gotta remember this is just a sound check a warm up
It's FUNNY watching this in a LEFT HANDED PERSPECTIVE.......I WAS THERE AND SAW IT IN FRONT OF MY FACE hahahaha......I'm in the grey sweatshirt behind RENE as the guitar change happens on the side stage on the 3rd song.....
Pure talent right there. That yawn @ 1:40 !! picking his nose lol after that though...Stevie at Full throttle!! I'd call this a bootleg recording?
Stevie and his brother Jimmie, were very particular about their signature sound. If it took an hour to get it right, didn’t matter.
I think you would really enjoy SRV playing with Albert King. I think it was an AustinCityLimits special.
😮❤😮❤😮
