You had the appropriate reaction when confronted with musical genius like his. Every time I watch this I get breathless. I got to see him live in Denver in 1984 in a small venue - I was back about 7 rows. Man. When he hit the first chords everyone jumped to their feet and we stayed on our feet through the whole set. He deserves no less. And yes, I hear the guitar almost speaking too. I always say he is so intimately connected to his guitar I picture him and the guitar in a bed in the hotel room after a show, and the guitar is smoking a cigarette.
It's nice to see somebody appreciate Stevie Ray Vaughan for what he was Blues genius ordained by musical Legends b.b. King Muddy Waters Freddie King Etc Only the Good Die Young
Love love loved your first reaction to this uniquely gifted and talented artist🙌👏🎸‼️. He still blows my mind and I watch him everyday💯. I really hope you continue to discover all this man has to offer as he will continue to amaze and delight you. In turn your reaction to him will delight us! Allow me to offer a few (there are many!) suggestions to showcase different sides to his genius. First is a song he wrote after his rehab and recovery from addiction called Riveria Paradise that he dedicates to all those still suffering from addiction. It is such a beautiful and peaceful instrumental with a bit of jazz infusion. The particular performance of this is from Austin City Limits 1989. Another suggestion is Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland from the Montreux Jazz Festival 1985 which is a master class in down and dirty blues that is simply stellar🌟💙⭐️💙. Both of these will showcase his versatility and prowess.🎶🎸‼️. I'm looking forward to more from you✌️🎋
One of the best reactions ever of this song by SRV. Over 30 years ago I became acquainted with his music and my reaction was the same: BLOWN AWAY. Still the same! 😎
Since you've headed down this path, I'd love to see a reaction to another astonishing blues/rock guitarist, the legendary Rory Gallagher. Often referred to as the "greatest guitarist you've never heard of", Rory was master musician who focused on the sounds he could pull out of his guitar with his hands rather than special effects and was a superb showman as well. Rory would have been 75 this month, so it would be great if you could take a listen to him in March. A great piece is "Tattoo'd Lady" from his Rockpalast performance in 1979. Thanks!
Just for reference, Stevie's last name is pronounced VON as in the word con ( th-cam.com/video/8xPLlHj08VA/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=JulienMiquel ). It's an unusual spelling so it's very commonly mispronounced.
Vaughan is NOT unusual at all. There's a city not 100 miles from here called Vaughan. The origin is British, where there are lots of hard-to-get pronunciations: See Worchester, and others.
@@wilfbentley6738 Didn't say the name was unusual, only the pronunciation based on the spelling (as in only 2 of the 7 letters are essentially spoken). It is regionally correct (as is your example Worchester(sic)) but phonetically, it is not. As Onyin is not from that region her pronunciation is essentially correct. The point of my comment was not to say that the name is unusual or that it is incorrectly spoken in every region that pronounces it differently than it appears in it's spelling (as in adding letter sounds for letters that do not appear in the spelling such as "lieutenant" being pronounced as "le_*f*_tenant) . My intent was to consider that my target audience is not from the region of the name's origin and is unaware of the difference in the correct pronunciation and the phonetic pronunciation based on the spelling. In simpler terms it was to let her know that there is no reason to be embarrassed at her pronunciation as, due to the spelling, that's the way people not native to the region where the pronunciation is more common would assume it is spoken. That is the reason I referred to it being unusually spelled for the way it is supposed to be pronounced. I'm sorry you didn't get that from the context.
RIP SRV God called SRV home. We all have something to look forward to. You need watch SRV with Johnny Copeland performing Tin Pan Alley. The admiration for one another is quite apparent. ✌️🤠🏞️🐂
In the mid-70s, Stevie Ray followed big brother down to Austin (from big city Dallas) and found a town full of wanna-be great-guitarists. By 1977, he was playing with the best of 'em. All of those guitarists realized none were going to be break-thru stars with just guitar skills, so they knew they had to be showmen, too. There were running-back-flippers, there were jump on amps/jump on piano guitarists, behind the backs, behind the heads and there were pairs of guitarists who'd play each other's instruments at the same time - strumming one, fretting on the other. And they'd switch mid-songs. It was all for show, and was AS MUCH to cure their boredom with 'the same ol' guitar work' as it was crowd entertainment. But it got a lot of those guitarists noticed not just for musicial skills but also for showmanship skills. Stevie Ray was a headliner act for that reason.
Thanks, Pearl! SRV was the GOAT of blues... LOVE your reaction... hope to hear more from you... I think would really like "Look at Little sister" -- SRV is awesome as usual, but he also has an amazing keyboardist - Reese Wynans -- AND he breaks a string and makes the smoothest guitar-switch ever while Singing!

You have just witnessed what may be the best blues guitarist who ever lived.
I don't think there ever will be a greatest blues guitarist.
@@vern2k653 I guess that's why they call it the blues.
No “may be” about it.
Don’t be sorry. Even those of us who have been witnesses of his greatness for over 40 yrs we’re still in awe
When guitars sleep at night they dream of SRV playing them. R.I.P. SRV
Is that true or are you just stringing us along?

Takes your breath away. Quite possibly the greatest guitar performance in history. RIP Stevie
You got it sister - he’s talking. That’s something blues musicians aspire to, and he nailed it.

Oh I just love watching first time reactions to this
Oh my goodness, this was a great review. I've seen this SRV video about 40 times but never cease to be amazed. Loved your reaction.

Do you yourself a favor and listen to some more Stevie Ray Vaughan, especially anything from live at the El Macombo it was all great! 😊

✌️🤠🏞️🐂
That's a lot of soul
Elvis's guitarist James Burton did that too !
Glen Campbell did also. There are others.
Exactly! 😎
Damn helicopters!
They've killed a few.
Talent from God.
They say he was a kind, generous, and well loved man.
Truth💯‼️
The GOAT 🥇🏆

That's my Stevie Ray. He's my brother. The last name is pronounced (VON)
If my mother bot me a guitar 10 life times ago, I doubt if I would have been that good...😮
That's a bad man well he was
You just watched the master

Jesus said "You are too beautiful on this earth."
Blown!
It's pronounced "Vawn" RIP SRV
I always love seeing someone lose their Vaughanginity!
