  • "Texas Flood (Live at the El Mocambo)" by Stevie Ray Vaughan
    Stevie Ray Vaughan was a legendary blues guitarist and singer from Texas, known for his soulful playing and powerful vocals. He rose to fame in the 1980s with hits like "Pride and Joy", "Texas Flood", and "The Sky is Crying", which showcased his incredible guitar skills and deep love for the blues. Vaughan collaborated with many other artists throughout his career, including David Bowie (on the song "Let's Dance"), blues icon B.B. King (on the album "In Session") and his brother Jimmie Vaughan (on their “family Style” album). He was also heavily influenced by other blues legends like Albert King, Freddie King, and Jimi Hendrix, whose playing styles he incorporated into his own unique sound.

    Yeah floodwater keep a rollin'
    Man it's about to drive poor me insane

I heard someone describe Stevie's way of playing as standing at the bottom of a mountain and walking straight up to the top. I have heard people play with this intensity but he could do it for such a long period that it was incredible.

    My name is Derek Caldwell Sr.
    My story goes like this.
    I have 5 kids and I was addicted to drugs. I was in such a bad place in my life. I love my kids and my wife of 18 years. I have a real passion for Stevie's playing. One day I was so depressed I was listening to him and I heard one of his talks that he does when he plays
    "Life with out you". And he talked about how he almost died from cocaine and alcohol. I started crying and I just started to pray and between him and my family and God, I have been sober for five
    Months. I know that ain't long but I went from living in a basement with my 4 kids at the time and my wife. I cried for them because they had it rough. I felt like less of a human. I thank God and Stevie Ray Vaughan. I will never forget what the power your music and fight for sobriety done for me. Love ya Stevie and may you rest in peace.
    We have a home of our own and we both have a car and my kids have respect for there father now. To me that is priceless.
    Bless you all who have left a positive comment about S.R.V.

In no way would I ever compare the 2, due to possibly every single thing about them is different besides their love for the guitar.. but Billy is one of the cleanest flat pickers that I have listened to.. Plays on an acoustic. Plays bluegrass but it's more of a hybrid bluegrass/rock or something. Definitely worth a listen for sure. Some songs I like are Home, Turmoil & Tinfoil, Meet me at the Creek, Dust in a Baggie.
