You all don’t know how many times I’ve commented to every reaction channel to react to THIS VIDEO and it always falls on deaf ears. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for you guys to do this one. I have often called it a “ grown up song” by SRV. It’s such a shock to see and hear him play such a song totally different from his repertoire. Thank you guys. You gave this old guy a lump in his throat and goosebumps.
I totally agree. I have been waiting a long time for someone to react to this song. This is what I listen to when I really want to chill out. Thank you.
@@AirplayBeats imho, this is one of the few where you definitely need to hear the studio version. Add the story behind that part of the session, and a piece of magic was captured that day.
The studio version of this song was recorded in the middle of the night with almost all the lights out in the studio. they asked the engineer if he had enough tape and he said yes. They started recording and SRV had his back to the engineer and after playing for quite a while, the tape was running low. The engineer was trying to get anybody's attention but no luck. They were into the song. Finally, the engineer got Chris Laton's attention and was giving him the "cut" sign. Chris got SRV's attention and gave him the "cut" sign. They wrapped the song up and as soon as the last note faded out, the tape ran out. They did the studio version in one take.
Yeah I read a similar version in a book I used to have about Stevie. They had been working so hard on the album . Everyone was so tired that night & in comes Stevie just feeling it. That recording was meant to be.
The FINAL studio Album with Double Trouble is called "In Step."...a year and a half after SRV nearly died from drugs and alcohol, he came back clean and sober. Working the 12:,steps....this song was the last track on the last Double Trouble Album....and he was freestyle, with reel to reel tapes, rolling, back turned to control room , and the engineer was freaking out cuz the tape was running out ( no pro tools in 1989) ...the Engineer was waving his arms, trying to warn Stevie that the recording was about to be scrubbed....Stevie finished the track , with 7 seconds left. Never knew.
It was definitely “in him.” I was lucky enough to see him perform many times around Austin and beyond. Of course he possessed technical prowess through years of obsession and hard work, but when you watched him play, it was apparent that there was an extraordinary amount of innate talent. Even when playing extended solos and improvising, he was never lost or searching where to go next. He was like a conduit connected to something higher and the music flowed through him almost effortlessly. He could crush you with a blistering blues driven hard rock solo, and this song shows he could silence a crowd with beautiful melodies as well. One of a kind.
I was lucky enough to follow him from LIU POST Tilles Center all the way up to Radio City Music Hall. My favorite shows were at the pier in NYC. The audience at every show felt like being with long time friends you never knew. Blessed to have been able to be there.
SRV and DT won a Grammy for best contemporary blues Instrumental with this song, It still gives me the chills when Stevie plucks the strings above the nut on the headstock, I played this at my Daughters memorial service and it gave me a peaceful feeling I can't describe. Stevie was on a whole different level
Back in the day, I would piss everyone in the pool hall off by playing this masterpiece. I mean they Loved it too... but being a long song they hated waiting for their songs to finnaly play. I would just smile and te them to wait it out, I'll be worth it. LOVE this one. I'm so happy to guys checked this out. P.S. this is chill Blues with jazz elements, not "smooth jazz", sorry to disagree.
A big part of this is Stevie being clean after so many hard years, personally i think his playing is so much better the last couple years before his death
Couldn't click fast enough when this came up👋👏✌️‼️. This is an original composition by Stevie from his "In Step" album which was his first album after rehab and getting clean and sober. The whole In Step album has several songs conveying the struggles of addiction and the blessings of sobriety. Crossfire, Tightrope, etc. even the title In Step refers to working the AA 12 step program. Touring after rehab Stevie always had someone find where meetings were in the place they would travel to. He was very proud of his hard won sobriety and spent the last 4 years of his life helping and encouraging others to find the peace and happiness he had found. This song is a soothing balm to a weary spirit and imparts understanding of the struggle along with the promise of the rewards of coming out free. That's why in the beginning he dedicated it to "all who are still suffering in any way". And yes Reece🎹🎹‼️🎶Reece is Stevie on the piano💯. Reece joined DT in August of 1985. This was a true Band of Brothers who loved and respected each other very much. Stevie insisted all performance fees be spilt equally between them which was never done. You guys will really love "Lenny" a love song to his ex wife that is truly beautiful. Most people will suggest this one from the El Macombo and it is truly great but hardly anyone reacts to Lenny from his Toyko concert. The camera work and audio/video is excellent and it is my favorite version. I hope you will check it out. Thanks so much for this today guys! It made my day✌️
This song is from his last studio album In Step. I think it's the most beautiful song he's ever done. A masterpiece, you should definitely check it out!
Smooth as silk When an artist can transport The Listener to another place thu there soul&passion they have did their job effortlessly and Stevie had bucket loads of that ability.
I have a soft spot for this song. Me and my then girlfriend was watching this on video, and at the end of this song during the fade out, I proposed to her. And 20 years later, we are still married and she's my best friend. A true southern belle blonde from North Carolina. This whole concert was incredible. I cried for weeks when Stevie Ray Vaughan when his chopper crashed, and killed him. Cheers guys, Deaf Gryphon ^V^
Late in his career he matured and learned a valuable lesson from B.B. King, who said that sometimes what you don't play is as important as what you do. He meant that the pauses and silences between notes can be very meaningful. You can see Stevie learn that and incorporate it into his later performances. He constantly improved throughout his live. What could have been?
Yep, SRV could go Blazing Texas Blues and be the most sensitive guitarists, playing with low volume, space and great dynamics, all within the same song.
He actually played as light as 12s and as heavy as 17s at one point, but for most of his career, Stevie Ray Vaughan's main guitars, his Number One and Lenny that are super legendary, were strung up with 13s-which is probably what you've heard of when you heard about Stevie Ray Vaughan's guitar string gauges in the past ...
There is SO much emotion happening in this song! It's simultaneously sultry, smoky, sensual, and sexy, while being bare, soulful, raw, pleading, and desperate. It brings me to tears every time I hear it, for different reasons every time. Probably his best work ever.
This was his best concerts, in my opinion..All the songs you watch from this show will blow your minds on what he could do towards the end of his time on earth..
I enjoyed SRV before I heard this song. However, I was driving back home in my truck one rainy night listening to KFOG 104.5FM when I first heard this song (I enjoyed some of his other songs like "Crossfire," so I don't know why I hadn't heard this one), and it just transported me. This song is what made me a FAN that went and consumed anything he had recorded.
He said in an interview with a guitar magazine that he didn't want to be "a one-trick blues pony", so you're almost certainly right that he would have widened his repertoire. God, what did we miss by losing him so early?! :( Clearly he had the jazz influence right from the beginning of his 'career proper' with "Lenny", and tunes that followed. He cited Kenny Burrell and Wes Montgomery as influences for starters, so I'm sure you're right that jazz would have at least continued to play a big part in his music. But we also got some slide playing, and a bit of acoustic work. And with the Hendrix influence, who knows where he might have taken that - all options on the table!
He truly was one of a kind. What an awesome reaction to an amazing song. Have yall checked out "Life Without you" live from Capitol Theatre or "Hideaway/Rude Mood" live from Montreux 1982 yet? Those are 2 great performances as well.
I'm glad somebody finally did this SRV review! This is the song that got me into Stevie. In the '90s, Alabama A&M's radio station would play it every midnight as I was leaving work. It's still hauntingly beautiful.
I've watched all your reactions about Stevie Ray and I have to say you two have class, just because you were growing up in the 80"s you two give this man all the respect, say incredible things about his ability to play and all the other comments you guys give and being the hip-hop gen you know excellent sound when you hear it and I am so glad that your ages and the ability to know what you have heard and felt is awesome. So glad I decided to hear your reactions about Stevie Ray, he would be very greatful to know how you two rated him. The lord took Stevie to early, he would of been 68 years old can you imagine what you would of done these past 32 years that he has been gone.? May he rest in enternal sleep and in peace.......R.I.P. Stevie Ray Vaughan.....
SRV - Life Without You, @ The Capital Theatre (85) is probably his best live performance, even more than Texas Flood. He wrote the song for his friend and guitar technician Charlie who built his white guitar and died unexpectedly.
I'm grateful to influencers like yourselves as well, guys, and love your honest reactions. I have been listening/watching videos of SRV all week now and hadn't heard this song. Oh, my oh my! Just when you think it couldn't get any better, it does! Even though this is one of his mellow tunes, he's just as electrifying and passionate. This is a beautiful, soulful tune. Reese Wynans is awesome on the keyboard, too. Stevie Ray had a great band. When Stevie Ray pulled on those strings toward the end (I counted 6 times), he pulled on my heart strings! Oh, my Lord!!! It's so easy to get lost in this song, for that matter, all his songs!
Man you guys keep picking the songs that I want to see you react to. Always look forward to your reactions knowing that you guys appreciate great music and musicians. Keep on going, it gives me something to look forward to.
Stevie's brother Jimmy said that Stevie was always pushing himself and that he never heard him play a song the same way twice. Elite creative endurance.
This is just phenomenal! I had no idea SRV could do this. Kinda reminds me of Europa by Santana…smooth, complex but so easy on the senses. Your allusion to George Benson is so insightful. Thank you for this one!
This incredible song always makes me sad... To think that he still had an immense bag of new tricks, insane feeling, insane creativity yet to show. He was yet to reach his peak and he tragically died. It makes me feel like humanity was robbed. He would have revolutionized jazz as well, just like he did with blues. And who knows what else...
This is on the album In Step, the last album he did with his band Double Trouble. Best live version of this great instrumental ever. Reese Wynans on keyboards 🔥 Tommy Shannon on bass, Chris Layton on drums.
My favorite SRV song. Thanks for reacting to this one gentlemen. May I suggest Samantha Fish " Highway's holding me now" live at the Telluride Blues and Blues festival. Great reaction to a great song.
I have watched your SRV journey. I am so happy you guys are giving him the respect he deserves as probably the greatest guitarist of his time. Maybe ever.
Totally nailed it with the George Benson comparison with that one part/rift! As someone who had just graduated college in ‘93, excellent point on this being the beginning of the smooth jazz era of the 90s. 👍🏼
I really like listening to music with you guys. Your knowledge and appreciation of music and your desire to hear new music makes it enjoyable. Just when I’m thinking who does this sound like, you come with George Benson and I’m like Bingo!
Gentlemen, great to to see you've discovered SRV!!...One of the greatest ever....taken away from us much too soon....thanks so much for featuring him so that others may hear!!
By far my favorite SRV next to tin pan alley . This shown Stevies versatility . Rock, blues , jazz , even classical . The whole package . RIP Stevie . We reallt miss you .
Yup....That.Is.DOPE. By far and away my favorite SRV song. I wish he could have lived long enough to cut a whole album in this style. It would have killed....
![Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Riviera Paradise [GEN Z REACTION]](/img/n.gif)
You all don’t know how many times I’ve commented to every reaction channel to react to THIS VIDEO and it always falls on deaf ears. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for you guys to do this one. I have often called it a “ grown up song” by SRV. It’s such a shock to see and hear him play such a song totally different from his repertoire. Thank you guys. You gave this old guy a lump in his throat and goosebumps.
Thank you for watching!!
I totally agree. I have been waiting a long time for someone to react to this song. This is what I listen to when I really want to chill out. Thank you.
Amen to that
@@AirplayBeats imho, this is one of the few where you definitely need to hear the studio version. Add the story behind that part of the session, and a piece of magic was captured that day.
@@aj71169 I downloaded the studio version IMMEDIATELY after recording this video. Been playing it ever since
A great loss for music & mankind when SRV left us.
Certain people weren't upset
You 2 ROCK. SRV IS THE GOAT....
The studio version of this song was recorded in the middle of the night with almost all the lights out in the studio.
they asked the engineer if he had enough tape and he said yes. They started recording and SRV had his back to the engineer and after playing for quite a while, the tape was running low.

Never heard that story. Awesome.
Yeah I read a similar version in a book I used to have about Stevie. They had been working so hard on the album . Everyone was so tired that night & in comes Stevie just feeling it. That recording was meant to be.
And rest of the story..... is the band came in the next day,and listened to it and layered their parts on it.
The FINAL studio Album with Double Trouble is called "In Step."...a year and a half after SRV nearly died from drugs and alcohol, he came back clean and sober. Working the 12:,steps....this song was the last track on the last Double Trouble Album....and he was freestyle, with reel to reel tapes, rolling, back turned to control room , and the engineer was freaking out cuz the tape was running out ( no pro tools in 1989) ...the Engineer was waving his arms, trying to warn Stevie that the recording was about to be scrubbed....Stevie finished the track , with 7 seconds left. Never knew.
The sweetest notes to be ever picked on a guitar. Legend!!!!
Lenny too.
You want to hear the studio version? You basically just heard it this performance is perfect
Studio version has better mix for quiet listening, imo. Live is more raw, but still amazing.
The same guitar that can melt your face can melt your soul.
I love the fact that Stevie wrote this song himself. He wrote others as well and it's always a pleasure to see people react to these songs on TH-cam.
It was definitely “in him.” I was lucky enough to see him perform many times around Austin and beyond. Of course he possessed technical prowess through years of obsession and hard work, but when you watched him play, it was apparent that there was an extraordinary amount of innate talent. Even when playing extended solos and improvising, he was never lost or searching where to go next. He was like a conduit connected to something higher and the music flowed through him almost effortlessly. He could crush you with a blistering blues driven hard rock solo, and this song shows he could silence a crowd with beautiful melodies as well. One of a kind.
Eric Clapton said that same thing....EC said I have to think where I am going next.... Stevie just goes there
I, too, was fortunate enough to see him from a few rows back a handful of times in NY. I echo your sentiments 100%
I was lucky enough to follow him from LIU POST Tilles Center all the way up to Radio City Music Hall. My favorite shows were at the pier in NYC. The audience at every show felt like being with long time friends you never knew. Blessed to have been able to be there.
The most beautiful song SVR has ever done
This is the last track from the last studio album that was released while he was still alive. Really makes it poignant when you look at it that way.
From the “In Step” album.
Our wedding song 30+ years ago. RIP SRV, hope to hear your Soul again in the next life.
I guess you never listened to Vaughan Brothers..
@@thereverendepi_gee565 I guess you go around making incorrect assumptions all day.
SRV and DT won a Grammy for best contemporary blues Instrumental with this song, It still gives me the chills when Stevie plucks the strings above the nut on the headstock, I played this at my Daughters memorial service and it gave me a peaceful feeling I can't describe. Stevie was on a whole different level
I 100 percent agree, Rivera Paradise helps heal the souls feeling the worst pain, by giving them a compassionate and empathetic musical hug.
Hope you’re doing well after going through something like that. I’m glad you had Stevie to help you through that and i’m glad that we all do.
I've listened to every version of this and this version, live in Texas is the best by far. He was just, in the groove. He is missed so much.
Man I love Stevie Ray Vaughan. He captivates me with his talent and presence. RIP Stevie.....
This entire 89 Austin City Limits concert was D O P E!!! Voodoo Child at this concert was mind blowing!
The most beautiful song SVR has ever done. Immaculate in every way!
What a great loss the day God took steve.
R.I.P SRV
Also,George Benson ROCKS👍
Back in the day, I would piss everyone in the pool hall off by playing this masterpiece.
I mean they Loved it too... but being a long song they hated waiting for their songs to finnaly play.
I would just smile and te them to wait it out, I'll be worth it.
LOVE this one. I'm so happy to guys checked this out.
P.S. this is chill Blues with jazz elements, not "smooth jazz", sorry to disagree.
This is in my personal top three from Stevie. Along with "Lenny" and Hendrix's "Little Wing" LIVE, always live.
Great picks!
That would be my list as well, with the addition of Couldn't Stand the Weather in the 4 spot. :-)
A big part of this is Stevie being clean after so many hard years, personally i think his playing is so much better the last couple years before his death
I am mesmerized every time I watch and listen to SRV.

The song Wall of Denial also deals with addiction & sobriety
@@jenniferyorgan4215 yes indeed it does👋💙
it still make me cry...

Smooth as silk
When an artist can transport The Listener to another place thu there soul&passion they have did their job effortlessly and Stevie had bucket loads of that ability.

Yep, SRV could go Blazing Texas Blues and be the most sensitive guitarists, playing with low volume, space and great dynamics, all within the same song.
The average guitar player uses 9 gauge or 10 gauge strings. SRV uses 13's . His nickname is big hands .
You here the spirit of every song in his music
Such a great piano solo. Just when you think it's over, it's goes into another, even cooler part
Every member of this band is the best!
SRV & DOUBLE TROUBLE...
UNIFORMLY ELITE In Any Regards, And From All Aspects; Inarguably, Unequivocally On ANOTHER LEVEL!
SRV - what a gift and what a loss.
He actually played as light as 12s and as heavy as 17s at one point, but for most of his career, Stevie Ray Vaughan's main guitars, his Number One and Lenny that are super legendary, were strung up with 13s-which is probably what you've heard of when you heard about Stevie Ray Vaughan's guitar string gauges in the past ...
This song always, always brings me to tears. It's the melody, Stevie's playing... so heart felt. RIP Stevie.
There is SO much emotion happening in this song! It's simultaneously sultry, smoky, sensual, and sexy, while being bare, soulful, raw, pleading, and desperate. It brings me to tears every time I hear it, for different reasons every time. Probably his best work ever.
This was his best concerts, in my opinion..All the songs you watch from this show will blow your minds on what he could do towards the end of his time on earth..
By far my fav from him Its soft butter on a summers day Smooth as it gets
This is my ALL TIME favorite SRV song. I absolutely love this.
Love this slow soulful groove - and Stevie's mastery still shows through. RIP Brother 💔 Everybody shines in this one. Reese does play with Joe 👍
I enjoyed SRV before I heard this song. However, I was driving back home in my truck one rainy night listening to KFOG 104.5FM when I first heard this song (I enjoyed some of his other songs like "Crossfire," so I don't know why I hadn't heard this one), and it just transported me. This song is what made me a FAN that went and consumed anything he had recorded.
If SRV were still alive he'd be considered a jazz player. This is where he was heading, because he wanted the challenge.
He said in an interview with a guitar magazine that he didn't want to be "a one-trick blues pony", so you're almost certainly right that he would have widened his repertoire. God, what did we miss by losing him so early?! :(
Clearly he had the jazz influence right from the beginning of his 'career proper' with "Lenny", and tunes that followed.

But we also got some slide playing, and a bit of acoustic work. And with the Hendrix influence, who knows where he might have taken that - all options on the table!
Blues plays 4 notes to thousands of people. Jazz Playa plays a thousand notes for one person.
For being a instrumental, this song speaks to me more than any other. Damn I miss Stevie Ray. BTW He used the heaviest strings.
Always have loved this song. SRV was so amazing. So glad I had the chance to see him on his last tour. Sure do miss him...
This is my favorite SRV and SRV said it was his. Whenever I am stressed out, I listen to this music and it makes everything better.
If you've had a tough day... and we all have em. Riviera Paradise takes you to that place to just reset and get goin again 🎸🙏🏼
Thank you Stevie ❤
This was played on NBC as a tribute to Johnny Carson's son who died tragically in a car crash in 1991. Very emotional tune.
Finally someone reacted to Riviera Paradise. Stevie at his best. Now you must hear Lenny, or Couldn't Stand the Weather or Scuttle Buttin
Another great review guys. He literally made that guitar cry. Thank you.
This man was smooth as butter, even on a bad day he was perfect....RIP to a legend
Smooth Blue Jazz.
You are THE best reaction channel, it's great to see real musicians react to music.
He truly was one of a kind. What an awesome reaction to an amazing song. Have yall checked out "Life Without you" live from Capitol Theatre or "Hideaway/Rude Mood" live from Montreux 1982 yet? Those are 2 great performances as well.
He was truly magical in every way
Favorite Stevie Ray Vaughan song, masterpiece
The smile on his face at the end always kills me ❤
I'm glad somebody finally did this SRV review! This is the song that got me into Stevie. In the '90s, Alabama A&M's radio station would play it every midnight as I was leaving work. It's still hauntingly beautiful.
One of your best reactions to SRV. Love the respect you both have for quality musicians.
The greatest guitarist ever in my opinion ❤️🙏
I've watched all your reactions about Stevie Ray and I have to say you two have class, just because you were growing up in the 80"s you two give this man all the respect, say incredible things about his ability to play and all the other comments you guys give and being the hip-hop
gen you know excellent sound when you hear it and I am so glad that your ages and the ability to know what you have heard and felt is awesome.

thanks for sharing
I have told my wife that this will be played at my wake. Greatness.
The greatest ever I saw him in Adelaide South Australia in 1985 blew me away he received a standing ovation after his first number Vodoo Chile
Just absolutely beautiful. A timeless piece of art.
Love song great reaction and your right this song is also giving George Benson vibes good callalso that playing by the very top never seen it b4
This is Blues from the Soul in to the Heart ...
I still call it very special unic Art of Loving Music , he's given to us to believe in us
Absolutely beautiful song!! I saw this live! SRV is incredible and Reese Wynans is absolutely amazing!!
The studio version was recorded in one take, and just as the final note sounded off the recording tape finished.
Healing music. When you went to his shows you knew it was special.
An absolutely beautiful song.
This is on the album In Step, the last album he did with his band Double Trouble. Best live version of this great instrumental ever. Reese Wynans on keyboards 🔥
Tommy Shannon on bass, Chris Layton on drums.
My favorite SRV song. Thanks for reacting to this one gentlemen. May I suggest Samantha Fish " Highway's holding me now" live at the Telluride Blues and Blues festival. Great reaction to a great song.

So clean and clear , he was one of a kind !
Yup....That.Is.DOPE. By far and away my favorite SRV song. I wish he could have lived long enough to cut a whole album in this style. It would have killed....
