Stevie went through a rough patch for a bit, but when he cleaned up he just got better. This song may be my favorite of them all. It’s jazzy/bluesy and downright amazing.
When they recorded this for the studio version, they did it in the middle of the night with almost all the lights turned off in the studio. They asked the engineer if he had plenty of tape and he assured them that he did. They started recording this and they just kept playing. The engineer noticed he was running out of tape. SRV had his back to him, so he was trying to get anybody's attention. He finally got Chris Layton, the drummer's attention and was giving him the cut sign. Chris got SRV's attention and gave him the cut sign. They played the last note and as soon as it ended, the tape ran out. They did the studio version in one cut.
It's been so long ago, but I remember reading it actually did run out & this is the second take, though done in one take as well. I read they much preferred the first take but it ran out much to their regret. I also read Stevie was the only band member that knew it was being recorded. This was their oldest unfinished song, staying on the back burner, being grown from their beginning days & developed/tweaked/perfected over many years. Exquisite masterpiece.
I had the God gifted life experience of seeing him in the late 70's early 80's in Phoenix. I have seen ZZ TOP and Aerosmith Foreigner, and Foghat, Queen, and Thin Lizzy. Stevie Ray Vaughan was an open channel to God. Playing behind his back, with his teeth, etc. Just a true gift from God
🎉🎊👏🙌👏‼️. My all time favorite creation by Stevie Ray. He created this after his own rehab and recovery and dedicates it to all those still suffering in any way. Soothing balm for your soul and a warm golden hug from this man's soul✨🌟⭐️
@@joeday4293Me too. Imagine what he could have created in the years he’s been gone. It breaks my heart every time I watch one of his videos. Born and raised in Texas, grew up on this. I’m crying right now listening to him.
Stevie plain and simple was a conduit for music. It came from God knows where and flowed through him and out of those strings. A once in a lifetime talent.
Yep he sure was. Stevie was the master, though he flew on Jimi's wings. The physicalness of his playing with those heavy strings 56 to 13's & that monster vibrato he shook his strings with is ungodly phenomenal & unsurpassed.
SRV had a deep LOVE for the Blues, but he was a student of the Guitar as well. he poured everything into his Guitar, and His Guitar responded. As Eric CLapton once said "He was an open channel" It just flowed through him effortlessly
Being a child of the 70’s and 80’s in my opinion music was climbing the mountain at high speed. There were so many phenomenal musicians and bands. If anyone agrees please laugh with me but when Stevie died it was like all of music stepped off the cliff. It slid on the slope for a time in the early 90’s, then just dropped. Eddie Van Halen said music has a cycle and I hope it turns around soon. We may never have another Stevie but I would like to hear someone come close
I agree. If you'd like to hear great guitarists who are still working I kindly suggest Steve Morse and Steve Hackett. Both have been around since the 70's, and are still performing... Hope you see them perform live while they are with us. With Peace and Love to all! (Michael)
Stevie was just 35 years old when he died. He really was at such a good place in his life, having recovered from addiction to drugs and alcohol, gotten engaged, and found a happy, balanced life that fed his creativity. His career had really taken off, and he & Double Trouble were invited to join Eric Clapton's tour along with brother Jimmy Vaughan and several other headliners for 2 nights at Alpine Valley. Stevie ended up taking the one empty seat left on the last of four helicopters heading back to Chicago after their second performance; but due to heavy fog the pilot got disoriented and hit a ski hill less than a mile from the stage, instantly killing all aboard. It was a shock & a tragedy that devastated his family, friends, peers and fans. Stevie left us in 1990, but the legacy he left through his music lives on.
And that guy tinkling the piano keys is Reese Wynans. A true talent. When SRV passed away Joe Bonamassa asked him to joim his grp and he did. Not sure if he is still with them. Pure talent added to Joe Bonamassa. ( maybe go down that guitar rabbit hole soon?)
When people ask me who was or is the best..i used to say Stevie..bar none..then i aged..wayyyyy to many styles.. But Stevie was one of a kind..wow...miss him
Reese Winans is the most talented keys player. It’s amusing to watch him swivel from keyboard to organ… and sometimes one hand on each different instrument at the same time. Reese is currently playing with Joe Bonamassa, another amazing guitarist. Electric and acoustic; acoustic concert at Carnegie Hall with different instrumentalists, in their native dress, is quite something!
hes my favorite guitarist and his death was tragic. He had suffered from addiction and had recovered clean playing even better than before. Saw him live 3 months before his passing and he was mesmerizing, playing with real passion. On that snowy night in the mountains he and either Eric Clapton or Robert Cray playing for friends graciously gave his helicopter ride up to stay and play some more. weather got worse and lets just say,RIP Stevie. Had used piano stings due to sheer size and won't break on his. Les Paul added a new line thicker just for him, which he still broke lol. There is a short clip of him playing the hell out of a vintage 53 ish acoustic guitar. WOW
Some of the greatest reactions to SRV that I have seen. Just when you think a “classical musician“ might turn his nose to the blues… Proof positive that brilliant, musicianship transcends all genres…
This is after he got clean and sober. He still played hard and heavy but this was him exploring new directions. I've read everything I could find about him and everybody says he was a lovely, lovely man. He insisted his band members got paid the same thing he did. Early his concert career, B. B. King opened for him. Stevie did not find out until the end of his set. He was furious that one of his main HEROES was set to open for him. He told his management that under no circumstances would B. B. ever open for him again. He might open for B. B. but not the other way around!
Wow this is amazing. Have never heard this song or this music and never heard of by Stevie Ray Vaughan. This could almost be played with the piano man by Billy Joel. It's kinda nice to just have that cool jazz chill in the air😊😊
That was more or less what Clapton said, only better. He made people who had never held a guitar pick one up, and people who had played a lifetime put theirs down.
The gentleman who played keyboard is Reese Wynans. His playing adds multi-layered colors and depth to this masterpiece. He plays with Joe Bonamassa these days. He is one of the rare talents to have a chance to play with two of the giants.
@Jone Ruiz Guitar ...Appreciated your ponderings. Please make time to listen to a song called "Tick Tock" that was included on the album Stevie did with his brother Jimmy Vaughan and which was released just after SRV and others passed away in a helicopter crash on that tragic day in August 1990. Stevie was 35. There are no live video versions of Stevie performing the song, just the audio track released on the album and a compilation video that Jimmy put together. But it is a profound and prescient last message conveying beauty and love, and giving hope to all who will listen. SRV was a magnificent and humble soul whose musical skill, interpretive innovations, and sincere message is what the world needs... now more than ever.
Nice reaction. RIP, Stevie. Here's one I believe you'll appreciate: The Original Video! Tommy Emmanuel - Guitar Boogie & Stevie's Blues - July 2006 th-cam.com/video/qQhECkexmSI/w-d-xo.html
funny note, BB King was with Eric Clapton behind stage when stevie started to play. BB wanted to check out the new phenomenon player. Shocked to see hin white, thought he was black because he had soul playing. Lol sees a white guy with snake skin cowboy boots leather vest wearing a stiletto feathered hat and said he's the blackest white guy alive. Then Eric said he had to leave after 5 mins of seeing him cause he said he'd quit playing and throw away his guitars......THE GOAT
you should react to love struck baby live at the el mocambo thats one of my favorite songs by stevie. thank for this video i like stevie and i like people reacting to him but thia reacts is just relaxing 😎
That's his guitar butter I can't remember that men guitar plays it's like a 57 strap body with a 60 something neck who played 13 gauge strings turn down a half step

Such a gifted creator. I love this song and so different than his bluesy music. Rest in Riviera Paradise Stevie Ray Vaughn. 🎸
I had the God gifted life experience of seeing him in the late 70's early 80's in Phoenix. I have seen ZZ TOP and Aerosmith Foreigner, and Foghat, Queen, and Thin Lizzy. Stevie Ray Vaughan was an open channel to God. Playing behind his back, with his teeth, etc. Just a true gift from God
Wow! Thank You for that!
@@edwardbellus1572 I'm so jealous!
This is my favorite SRV song next to “Lenny” and “Life Without You” and SRV is my all time favorite guitarist
A master, a virtuoso at his craft connecting with us through his emotions and music. Beautiful. Art at it's best. RIP Stevie, you left us way to soon.
This is a glimpse into the beautiful soul of Stevie Ray Vaughan. I, for one, cherish every second of his genius and compassion on display here. 🙏🏼
🎉🎊👏🙌👏‼️. My all time favorite creation by Stevie Ray. He created this after his own rehab and recovery and dedicates it to all those still suffering in any way. Soothing balm for your soul and a warm golden hug from this man's soul✨🌟⭐️
He has been gone for 33 years now, and I am still suffering from his loss.
@@joeday4293yes it is bittersweet to watch/listen to him. All the joy and fulfillment he brings is tinged by the sadness of his absence⭐️🌟✨

The joy on his face when he smiles at the very very end makes me grateful he had found his peace. ❤

My husband and daughter and I were like he’s our family 😢😢😢😢😢we were crushed. So glad to see him on TH-cam ❤

Cannot listen to this without thoughts of blue sky, warm sand, gentle breaking waves on the beach floating away in my own world. Paradise in sound.

It's absolutely wonderful how we all get the same silly grin and bight eyes when we hear Stevie and co. play.🤩🤩🤩
Finally!!! All the reviewers watch Texas Flood. But, this is beautiful ❤❤❤

It was August 27, 1990. No snow. They slammed in to the side of a ski hill because of heavy fog. Kobe Bryant died very much like SRV's crash.
My favorite SRV song!! Thanks for reacting to it.

SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness
An instrumental dedicated to Stevie's wife Lenora (Lenny):
**Lenny at El Macambo**
This is after he got clean and sober. He still played hard and heavy but this was him exploring new directions. I've read everything I could find about him and everybody says he was a lovely, lovely man. He insisted his band members got paid the same thing he did. Early his concert career, B. B.

Like I said on your other video....GOAT
Wow this is amazing. Have never heard this song or this music and never heard of by Stevie Ray Vaughan. This could almost be played with the piano man by Billy Joel. It's kinda nice to just have that cool jazz chill in the air😊😊
Very very sad indeed. He passed right before I met my future wife. Riveria Paradise was our wedding song.
I think Stevie would like knowing his music still makes people happy
The Goat
Chitlins con Carne would be a good one to react to by Stevie Ray Vaughn
That strat Stevie only brought out to play on some songs it was a gift from him first wife, Lenny
Don't get wrong, I love the blues and have been a huge fan of Stevie Ray forever.
I read a quote once;
If you don't play guitar, Stevie makes you want to pick it up. If you do play, he makes you want to put it down. 😎
That was more or less what Clapton said, only better.
He made people who had never held a guitar pick one up, and people who had played a lifetime put theirs down.
Vaughan = "Vawn" A treasure he was; and is. He rests under a shady tree in Dallas, Texas
The gentleman who played keyboard is Reese Wynans.
His playing adds multi-layered colors and depth to this masterpiece.
He plays with Joe Bonamassa these days.
He is one of the rare talents to have a chance to play with two of the giants.
Stevie was one of a kind.
GOAT = SRV
Back in the day I would always choose Riviera Paradise while doing whip-its! It's all about the timing.
That shit turns a brain 🧠 into Swiss Cheese 🧀... 😳
Stop, you’re killin me…..

I like to see guitarists react to Stevie. Your reactions are the best.
There is no doubt he channeled his music. You should check out , Lenny live at the El mocambo . God bless
You might enjoy Tin Pan Alley.
Reese Wynans, the keyboard player, is still playing the blues with Joe Bonamassa at age 76!
React to Look at little sister and leave my little girl alone fro the same concert!
Yhst headstock pluck hits you right in the soul
My favorite tune. So relaxed and beautiful.
We lost him way too soon , just think if he was still around !
How about that double time drop with Reese (Keys) on lead? I loved that.
It’s the BLUES. He was the best💟
💯
Just think of his last name as being spelled Vawn lmao
It's honestly hard Not to be inspired by his playing, and his attitude
PS: SRV's 7th grade "music teacher" flkunked him! LOL!
Nice reaction. RIP, Stevie.
Here's one I believe you'll appreciate: The Original Video! Tommy Emmanuel - Guitar Boogie & Stevie's Blues - July 2006 th-cam.com/video/qQhECkexmSI/w-d-xo.html
Jone,the keyboardist Reese Wayans plays for another great bluesey guitarist named Joe Bonamassa ,check him out. The song Going Down.
funny note, BB King was with Eric Clapton behind stage when stevie started to play. BB wanted to check out the new phenomenon player. Shocked to see hin white, thought he was black because he had soul playing. Lol sees a white guy with snake skin cowboy boots leather vest wearing a stiletto feathered hat and said he's the blackest white guy alive. Then Eric said he had to leave after 5 mins of seeing him cause he said he'd quit playing and throw away his guitars......THE GOAT

God must have one Heck of a Band!
That's his guitar butter I can't remember that men guitar plays it's like a 57 strap body with a 60 something neck who played 13 gauge strings turn down a half step
Listen to his song LENNY! It’s an instrumental also..
Any SRV is gold. I'd like to see a reaction to Michael Hedges ...anything off Aerial Boundaries will do
Excellent song choice.
Mate, check out Sonny Landreth and Derek trucks - Congo Square live. Best slide guitar playing/video ever?
Check out the band RUSH! I think you will enjoy. Yyz, tom souyer, limelight and so much more
Tin pan alley
❤️❤️❤️
Check out Roy Buchanan
Reese Wynans, Everybody
Reese Wynans
Consider that Stevie played with the 2nd heaviest strings you can get. But I don't know if this particular guitar has them.
You need to check out Tommy Emmanuel a virtuoso guitarist from Australia.
Vaughan rhymes with dawn
just say SRV everyone will know
I love Riviera Paradise...but check out Lenny.
Check out Tin Pan Alley in Tokyo.
I think this song sounds a lot like Jeff Beck.
Why do we have to watch steve rayvon on the small screen and you on the big screen? This sucks!
