The GOAT! Period
You don’t just hear Stevie play, you feel him
Same with David Gilmour. ; )
th-cam.com/video/CiXNIjGX1hY/w-d-xo.html
Yes the pain you feel here in this song is real, what a legend that's SRV.
Definitely!
Fortunately I have a pasture of GOATs; Stevie Ray being among them.
I wish I could like your comment twice! I was fortunate to see him live 3 times and by far the GOAT
Stevie Ray admired Jimi Hendrix a lot, but his own skills and gift made him one of the most admired guitarists in the world. I remember the day it was announced that he was killed in a helicopter crash after a performance. I haven't heard anyone since then, that has captured the heart and spirit that he use to play with.
Don't forget Buddy Guy, he had a big influence too.
@@randotastic True. Buddy even wrote a tribute song for Stevie after he died. Stevie named many legends who inspired him in different interviews. He had such respect for them.
@@MosaicRose99 👍👍👍
My brother gave me 3 cassettes for my bday one year when I was 15. I felll in love with his music. When I found out he had died, I bawled my eyes out.
As a guitar player myself, SRV is one of those that simultaneously makes you want to get better and quit playing at the same time. I firmly believe that talent is not learned but given by God. RIP
It brings me such JOY to see someone discover Stevie Ray!!! ... When he died, I wept for DAYS.
I couldn’t agree more ! 😻🎸👌
The sad part is that Stevie had finally figured out that he didn’t need the alcohol to be a “Blues Man” and was playing some of his best stuff when he died. He was as great as they come. May his heart (music) live on!
Ain't that the truth. I saw him right before he went into rehab in '86. Awesome concert. Simply SRV power. Then, I saw him during the In Step tour after he was sober. More power, and more concentrated. Crazy to think that the booze and drugs was actually holding him back.
I saw him in 1990 at the B&H Blues Fest in California. He blew the doors off. I cried the day he died.
That's why the Austin City Limits version of this is my favorite. He was sober and it was so crisp and clean and powerful. That was what he was capable of when he was finally sober.
BB King once said of SRV, “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.” High praise from a legendary blues man.
Uhm.. And kinda racist, too.
There is no colour in Blu- ... Oh, wait. Lol
Stevie Ray was and always will be the best blues player around the world! I'm a white lady, and I have always loved the blues since I was a teenager. Loved the Beatles and Rolling Stones. But it was Stevie Ray that won my heart!!!
BB may have been named King... But Stevie Ray was and will always be "The King"!!!👑👍
@@sirsancti5504this is not racist B B King couldn't of given Stevie Ray Vaughan a bigger compliment ever. He didn't notice his colour because greatness doesn't look at colour. You are looking at an exceptional talent. BB King even played with SRV himself along with many other greats including Albert King, whose faces weren't white. So not a racist comment from BBKing SRV was accepted from the blues community as the best there was. He is exceptional
@@jackiemorris66
👋👋 well said ! 👍👍
His live performance of Voodoo Child is lit.
That my friend is the G. O. A. T. !!
No matter the genre! Pure genius!
You’d love his live version of Little Wing at El Mocambo.
Always do love SRV!!
So many versions are great of Stevie playing “Voodoo Chile,” but the Austin 1989 version is true 🔥!
Nobody did it better, and I've heard some of the best try!!!
@Michael Gilbert agreed totally. Voodoo Chile live in Austin Texas is one of the best performances ever.
'Tis true 😉
Congratulations, you've just witnessed the greatest texas blues guitarist that ever lived and who will ever have lived. It's an absolute honour that we shared the earth at the same time as this freak of nature. This is talent not of this world.
You never heard of him before and now you will never forget him.
His style is called Texas Blues. The hats, silver chains, big sleeved shirts and neck scarfs, as well as his cowboy boots are all part of his heritage of growing up in Texas.
He reminds you of Hendrix because Stevie LOVED Jimi Hendrix and was so influenced by him that he considered him his mentor. Stevie asked Jimi Hendrix father's permission to record Jimi's "Voodoo Chile'", and he gladly let him.
They also let Stevie use Jimi's wah pedal for it as well. That's some love there.
This actual clip is with Jimi's pedals, and many other aspects of his rig. Jimi's family gave all his stuff to SRV. Even the left handed tremelo bridge on that guitar is Jimi's, as you can see the whammy bar hangs from above.
Don't you mean Voodoo Child...I hope I am wrong and there is a version of Voodoo Chile by Stevie.
I was brought up playing guitar . I was a 14 year old boy . The crew I wanted to rock with told me " if you want to rock n roll , you have to learn the blues " . The blues came from the American sharecroppers . And the hellbillies mixed country with blues . Then came a little guy named Chuck Barry ... The world hasn't been the same since .
Albert King was a bigger influence on Stevie.
Stevie doesn't just play music, he channels it from another dimension.
Stevie is a SELF TAUGHT player ~ I Believe the music came Through him, not from him. Even after decades of listening to him play, I Still want to cry when I listen to him play.Welcome to Stevie Ray ~ keep on reacting to his music.
His older brother taught him how to play many instruments actually. This self taught stuff isn't really the case. Doesn't take away from the greatness, but him and his brother Jimmy were no joke. Was glad I was able to see them play together, was a certain kind of special with those two.
been playing since middle school
Mentored by both BB King & Albert King. ‘Nuff said. You want more vocals check out “Tin Pan Alley” live w/Johnny Copeland. What an epic performance 🔥🔥🔥. And…welcome to 4 eva Stevie Rae club. The GOAT.
Thanks for giving proper recognition to Albert and BB. I always see comments about Stevie being influenced by Hendrix (and of course he was) but when asked, Hendrix didn't make Stevie's top 10 list of influences. His brother, Albert King, Lonnie Mack, (I think BB) etc,. The bond between Stevie and Albert is especially clear, it's like Albert adopted him
Yes!! Glad you caught that. A bone chilling killer set at Montreaux '87. Must see.
Albert King had joked about Stevie being his illegitimate son.
yelp GOAT
@@robdefibaugh1781
Yep, watch Stevie Ray & Albert King in session great video
I never get bored of watching people react to Stevie 🤣 everybody pulls the same face when the guitar goes behind the back 🤣 love it mate
There's another video of him playing live in Austin where one of the strings breaks mid-solo and he still finishes it without having to stop. The dude was unbelievable!
Absolutely the best video of how a true legend just takes it all in stride, just kept going until his tech could get another guitar ready. My favorite video of SRV.
Yea he broke a string.and switched guitars.without missing a note.mind blowing
His Big Brother Jimmie was playing with him that night
I can’t remember what video it was but that was awesome. He switched guitars without missing a beat@@shadowknows3882
Watching your organic reaction to this classic is pure gold. Long live SRV and the blues!
Stevie was actually a humble man, a kind quiet and gentle soul, liked by everyone and loved by most. When he played guitar he for sure was on another plane, in another spiritual realm, where the music flowed through him. He said his talent was a gift from God and he worked hard to pay it back. He never ever bragged about himself.
Recommend you see the entire El Mocambo show. also catch
"Life Without You" at the Capitol Theater in NJ
"Tin Pan Alley" 1985 at the Montreux Jazz Festival. Johnny Copeland is his guest.
that's just for starters. enjoy. he never had a bad show.
On the remastered in step it has 5 additional live songs one being a 13 minute version of life without you... It near makes me cry every time.
We need a movie where Nicholas Cage plays SRV.
Very well said! Excellent recommendations!
@@elusivelectron .
Jeff Healey is another guitar maestro. A special aspect of his playing is that he’s BLIND. He’s awesome. You must see and hear him play.
And especially hear and watch them playing TOGETHER.
I did! I saw Stevie and Jeff Healey at Mud Island in Memphis and it was one damn good show! I think it was when they were playing Road House Jeff stood up and kicked his chair behind him and started standing up playing that guitar in his lap! I think the Stray Cats opened for Jeff and Stevie, you should have been there
Yes "Look at little sister" with those two is a must watch video...
Deffinitley he never gets enough mention jeff healey was so awesome.
Was lucky to see Jeff in 2000...labor day and found out that morning I had the night off at work. Jeff played over 2 hours and drank 9 beers!
A wry smile crosses my face every time I hear the words "never heard of Stevie Ray Vaughan".......then I wait and watch knowing just about the time this poor Greenhorn is about to pass out STEVIE RAY DOES IT BEHIND HIS BACK.
Did you know he didn't think he could play sober? One of the (many) sins of his death was it happened soon after he achieved sobriety - and was playing better than ever. He was finally happy; finding joy in playing whilst in complete control. I wept when I heard he'd been killed.
@@HS-hr5wp He died in a helicopter crash in 1990.
This performance in my opinion is the best ever filmed , he plays the guitar behind his back and what I mean when I say that is that it’s still the same song while he’s doing it it’s not just a gimmick he’s still playing it exactly the same and although it’s true that he was obviously influenced by Jimi if you really listen to his entire catalog his playing is way closer to that of Albert King who was his main influence they recorded a whole set together , once you watch that you will see the similarities between them
His performance of Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland is up there too...that scene was electric that night.
Stevie Ray Vaughan Tin Pan Alley (with Johnny Copeland)
th-cam.com/video/AGPx-ekqZEo/w-d-xo.html
He also plays it behind his head...
Saw him do it live!
I am particularly fond of Look at Little Sister live where he did the guitar switch myself.Popped a string and we couldn't tell,changed guitar without missing a beat.I love that we all have our favorites from SRV and all just sit back and enjoy it all.
Stevie Ray Vaughn is originally from Dallas, Tx ,moved around a bit as a kid and settled in the Austin, Tx area as an adult. He was absolutely brilliant and died far too soon in a helicopter crash traveling between shows. My favorite SRV songs are "Cold Shot", "Pride and Joy", and "Couldn't Stand the Weather".
3 of my favorite songs too, I love the video for 'Cold shot'. Ever heard Chris Rea's song 'Texas? There's a video on YT.
When Albert King was inducted into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame in 2013, his daughter and granddaughter spoke about Stevie Ray Vaughan being at their house constantly, as well as B.B. King…. Can you imagine three of the greatest guitar players in the same room playing together feeding off of each other man…
Do yourself a favor and check out 2013 rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame ceremony some of the inductees ….
Albert King , Donna summers, heart, rush among others
❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Man was the Greatest, most humbled, gentle, kind human being you could have ever met.
When it came to complexity, clarity, technicality, Stevie Ray remains the Greatest of All Times…
My first visit. Thank you for taking the time to read about him first.
I Love Music Discovery…New Sub!
Also, you will discover in time, so much greatness comes out of Texas!
Jimi was the reason he started playing guitar at 12. He himself modeled himself after Jimi and Jimi used to play behind his back.
It’s jaw-dropping the talent that this man had.
SRV was a genius and you're not the first person to be blown away upon hearing him for the first time.
Saw him live in 1983 in a very small venue. Amazing. Jaw dropping. Get you some more SRV!
He’s from Texas and no one like him. May he rest in peace. He was taken way to early and had not achieved world wide fame but has certainly done so since. One of his favorite mentors was Albert King who knew SRV was on another level!
NONE of Stevie's solos were EVER the same live. He played what he felt. Double Trouble stayed right there with him never missing a beat. Music came from his SOUL and you FELT it.
You're extremely lucky. You can take music we grew up with and pause it to take it in a piece at a time. We bought the Albums and flat wore them out listening to them over and over. Not to mention the fact finding the gems that Lamestream Radio didn't, and still don't, play is infinitely easier today.
I've heard his voice described as "honey over gravel". And always respect his band "Double Trouble'. He couldn't read music, but played by ear and changed the song every time, but they kept up with him like they were directly attached to his brain. They deserve mad props. The fact he died so young, proves we are not allowed to have nice things for long...Live performance of Tin Pan alley with Jimmy Copeland. It will make you so sad he's gone, like all his fans.
Stevie was offered a contract as a Solo Artist several years before their first album hit. He turned them down flat. Double Trouble is very underrated but they had it right.
Well said..Miss him so much in this time.❤
Stevie is the best Texas blues man to ever pick up an axe - I saw him play live twice ill never forget it, never - especially in this song he made the guitar scream, cry and wail like it was a living thing, many think it was as long as he held it. RIP SRV
His version of Little Wing is my favorite song of all time. Does Jimi Hendrix true justice. Only one to cover Jimi and do it respect!
And the stones to do it as a guitar instrumental!
It’s Perfect!!
Try " Riviera Paradise " ...
Stevie showed up at rehearsal one time and said that Jimi's spirit had just entered his body, he channeled Hendrix. His performance of "third stone from the sun" from "live at the ElMocombo" is unbelievable and the abuse Stevie deals out to his beloved #1Strat is really something to see. SRV was in my opinion, the greatest guitar player ever. Thank you so very much!
yep
I have NEVER heard a single player, including Hendrix, Clapton, Mayer,, etc etc , who can or could do thing things Stevie Ray did on that guitar,,,, nobody could match his tone, aggression and complete and utter contempt of a fretboard !! The only player ever on planet earth who’s actual guitar had to lie down and have a cigarette after every song !!!!! The G.O.A.T !!! 😻🎸👌🔥🔥🔥
Stevie Ray with Albert King on "Don't Lie to Me" is one of the best blues performances of all time.
This live show at the El Macombo is one of the greatest videos ever recorded. It's documented that SRV was high as Hell on coke at this show.
What makes him even more amazing is he couldn’t read or write music. He did everything by ear.
He can NEVER be duplicated!! AMAZING!
Pride and Joy. IS Vaughan's signature song, you hear the riff and instantly think of him. It's a classic that feels like it's a part of the blues cannon!!! ALSO; VOODOO CHILD, CROSSFIRE, LITTLE WING, THE SKY IS CRYING, AND MANY MORE....HE IS ONE OF THE GREATS!!!!!
Awesome songs but one that gets over looked is, House is Rockin.
The Blues genre was dying out until Stevie came out. He resurrected the entire genre, performed with many great Blues stars, ie; BB. King, Albert King and some others, giving them all a new level of popularity! You always want to do Stevie's live performances as he puts his entire soul into his playing and a studio version, you miss all that! I suggest you do Jimi's Voodoo Child and then Stevie's Voodoo Child back to back.
There's a video of him doing a sound check before a show. It was good enough to be part of the show itself.
with that statement i disagree johnny and edgar winter kept the blues alive from the 50's till 2014 when johnny died they have over 50 albums to prove it
@@terrybonham8336 add Rory Gallagher to the list that no one mentions, I recommend Irish Tour 74.
I could cry watching him knowing what our world has lost.
Stevie Ray and BB King: Two of the greatest ever and very much missed.
You a correct, that guitar is an extension of his being. It flows from him through the guitar like second nature.
SRV definitely had his own unique fashion style!!!!
I'm 74, I heard him for the first time when I was 21, blow my mind then and still does. I never get tired of hearing him even at my age now. He had the soul in him his bother said even as a small boy!
Stevie was, by far, one of the greatest blues guitarist I've ever heard and was the biggest influence for me and the way I play guitar today. He was solely responsible for bringing the blues back to the mainstream in the 80's when music was, in my opinion, without soul or feeling. He fought bravely to overcome addiction and was even better than ever until he died in a tragic helicopter accident while on tour. I literally cried the day he died. I can only imagine what contributions he would have made had he not been taken from us. RIP Stevie Ray. You were one of the greatest.
Stevie is self taught too! He’s so amazing! He left us too soon! RIP Stevie. Amen.
he covered hendrix better than any other guitarist i've ever heard - to be honest, i think he played hendrix even better than hendrix did.
i'd strongly recommend reacting to him playing hendrix's little wing (from the same el mocambo show) and voodoo chile (from the austin city limits show).
I agree, he did Hendrix better and to me is a better player I love them both but Stevie played clean, never a mistake
Stevie was a Baaad Man! He revered Hendrix. He taught himself to play guitar playing along with Jimi's records. He never got to meet Hendrix, but he payed tribute to Jimi by playing a few of his songs in his live sets. He met Jimi's dad and he was so impressed with how Stevie played Jimi's music, that he gave him Jimi's "Wah" pedal.
Svr often brings me to tears.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is the most amazing guitarist. Another song to listen is RIVIERA PARADISE by Stevie
He is the GOAT. He could play Hendrix, Page and Clapton note-for-note infused with real blues like Albert Collins, Larry Davis and BB King.
He does his most singing and also shreds the fk out of the guitar in the live version of Tin Pan Alley with another legend (Johnny Copeland). You won’t be disappointed!
I introduced my hubby to Prince. He introduced me to SRV. Toss up on best guitar player. Both were like the guitar was a part of their bodies. Amazing. RIP to both GOATS.
You didnt miss out, the music is here forever. It just wasnt in your scope at the time. Some of my favorite musicians died before i was born. These people will live on because the music will live on.
Stevie Ray brought the blues back to mainstream recognition in the 80s and he’s the GOAT. Joe Bonamassa is keeping it alive today! 😎🤘🏻
I love listening to SRV, but it also makes me sad because I think about his death every time I hear him play. He was a monumental talent, & it absolutely sucks that we lost him so young
I hear you a 100% he's still my number 1 but I can only listen to him occasionally because I get so depressed we lost him 32 years ago...
Stevie is the goat, no question effortless playing, absolute genius.
You don’t listen to Stevie Ray…you EXPERIENCE Stevie Ray
I can't remember everything he played live but I WILL NEVER FORGET HOW I FELT WATCHING AND HEARING STEVIE RAY. Watching your reaction is priceless.
Stevie was inspired by many legends. He actually said though, that his brother, Jimmie Vaughan was his greatest influence in the beginning. When they were growing up, Jimmie was the first to start playing the guitar and Stevie (who started playing the guitar as a child) was very inspired by his big brother and followed him in that direction.
I was at Stevie Ray Vaughn's last concert the night his helicopter crashed after the show at Alpine Valley, Wisconsin August 26th 1990. The next morning was one of the saddest days of my life. The lineup was SRV, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray and Buddy Guy. RIP SRV!
I’m so jealous! I couldn’t get anyone to make the trip with me. When I heard the news about the crash… I was devastated.
I too was there- worst fog I've ever seen. Encore was "Sweet Home Chicago" Stevie was going to let Clapton play the last solo but Clapton stepped in front of him and let SRV close.
😢
Growing Up,, His Older Brother Was His Idol & A Big Influence On Him..Jimmy Vaughan Was The Lead Guitarist For The Fabulous Thunderbirds "Tuff Enuff",, "Wrap It Up" & "Powerful Stuff"
Lots of Jimi in Stevie. This is amazing, as he say, but dig this...this is the usual for this guy every single tune...every single solo...every time.
I love seeing him step up to the microphone and the guitar pulls him back to play a bit more before singing.
I really hope Stevie, and Jimi are tearing it up in heaven.
Lol, Stevie Ray reminds you of Hendrix because they both worshipped Albert King. Albert King helped SRV get his start and Hendrix learned from him back in his day playing at the fillmore west.
There's a full video of Stevie and Albert King playing together where they talk about Stevie starting out.
Check out Albert King Live 'Blues Power' for a real treat!
Yes, thank you for giving Albert King proper credit. He along with Lonnie Mack were huge influences on Stevie (as I understand it anyways).
Stevie once said. When I start to think about what I'm playing. I begin to lose it. That's the mark of a true musician. Pure feel and heart
Don’t be frustrated…it’s exciting when you find an old school wormhole of incredible top tier music!
Stevie Ray was unmistakable, unique, awesome, unforgetable. A highlight of my life seeing him play a private concert in DC. What a loss. Made Eric Clapton cry too 😞
Stevie idolized Hendrix and has covered several of Jimi's songs. Stevie has even gone as far as saying he channeled Hendrix and that Hendrix has talked to him in his dreams which seemed very real to him.
It was a wonderful time for music. I was lucky enough to graduate in 74. It was a fine time, and a fine time was had by all.
Nobody ever mentions my favourite thing about Stevie: the descending vibrato at the end of every line he sings. Sounds like he's chuckling to himself. Such an odd little quirk but it's fantastic. Kind of like how James Hetfield from Metallica finishes every phrase with "-ah!"
As a few other guys have said, Texas Flood live in Austin Texas is one to check out. Life Without You live at the Capitol Theater in 1985 is another. SRV is a legend. Such a tragedy that we lost him.
Stevie Ray Vaughan - Life Without You - 9/21/1985 - Capitol Theatre… AMAZING TALENT. He chips a tooth on the strings!
1 of the greatest performances ever!!
I got to see Stevie and BB, together, the same day. I met SRV and DT that day. TAJ MAHAL was there too.. then later saw SRV jam with Jeff Beck, in person... the SRV dies. Never cried so hard in my life...
Stevie Ray and his guitar were one and the same...every note he played was as if it came directly from his soul.
You know he is so good when legends like B B King says he wish he could play like you he said one time about Stevie that the music just flows out of him and he don’t think about how he plays it just comes out of him .
I heard/saw B.B. King make that comment on the "A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughn" DVD!!! Other performers on the DVD were Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, Jimmy Vaughn, Dr. John and a couple of others!!! All had great anecdotes to tell about SRV!!! It's a must have DVD for any SRV lover!!!
When Stevie picks up the guitar, the two become one. It just flows.
Saw him in concert over and over, Dallas and Austin. Man was a MASTER
"The worst thing for me was that Stevie Ray had been sober for three years and was at his peak. When he played that night, he had all of us standing there with our jaws dropped. I mean, Robert Cray and Jimmie Vaughan and Buddy Guy were just watching in awe. There was no one better than him on this planet".
Here is a good one for you to check out it is Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland it is a class in slow blues and another one that will blow your mind it is Life without you live at the Capital Theater he also has one it is a guitar sound check where he is wearing a leopard coat and of course VooDoo Child live in Austin this is such a deep rabbit hole
"This brother's special". Well said. My favorite musician of all time, and it's not even close.
SRV let us all hear what was in soul w/ absolutely no filter whatsoever. By all accounts, he was a great person w/ a good soul and that, I think, is a big part of why his playing, singing, and presence was so magnetic. It was just him letting us know who he was through the guitar. It was as pure as it gets.
Stevie the GOAT!! It's all about the 3 B's. Blues, Booze and BBQ!!!
“Pride and Joy” he wrote about his daughter. “Life Without You” another great song. All Stevie Ray!
(He died in a plane crash years ago.)
Also known as 'The Cat in the Hat with a Strat'.. if you want to hear more vocals, try 'Life by the Drop',, 'Ain't Gonna Give Up On Love ', 'Life Without You '. The first was written by his good friend Doyle Bramhall. You can try the unplugged version, the latter two are excellent from Capital Theater. Both of these were written by SRV. Please do live versions. Stevie should always be seen to be enjoyed to the fullest! Also note that with the exception of shows recorded after 1986, Stevie was dealing with an alcohol and drug addiction. You can see in his shows after '86, he was much livelier in his performances. His last show in Austin in 1990 was one of my personal favorites.
Life by The Drop is not covered enough in my opinion, his vocals are awesome in that
I loved the Austin City Limits performances so much that I bought the VHS tape to watch over and over. Also plugged it into my PC at one point and made my own CD to play in the car.
I was at that show at the Capitol theater in New Jersey I was also born in Passaic New Jersey same town
That last Austin City limits show is 🔥
@@markdamico771 Never saw SRV at all, unfortunately, but I did see both Frampton and Loggins & Messina at the Capital Theater. (I was from Chatham, NJ).
Clapton said it’s almost like he was a vessel that great musicians past could play through him like an open channel. A studio owner said he’d never seen his techs act like they did when they first saw Stevie before. Said they unconsciously got out of their chairs and were almost pressing their faces into the studio glass trying to soak up his tone or something.
One of the amazing things about Stevie Ray, he started playing at the top of his game by the time he was 16! Yep.
SRV was a trancendent force in music. R.I.P Stevie.
Now that you have found Stevie he will be with you always, the joy of listening to him has never gone away. I was totally devastated when he was tragically killed in a helicopter crash. His electric performance and your reaction to it gave me goosebumps, just WOW! I feel so blessed to have shared this experience with you thank you so much
He died in Wisconsin at alpine valley music festival ski slope. Not trying to be a know it all just wanted to let you know,. Such a shame, hope you have a good one and that was the saddest day in music history
Not in NZ, Wisconsin USA...
Allie Basta , Unfortunately Stevie struggled back and forth with a drug addiction (hence, the heavy sweating that the reactor noticed). They were shuttling the performers to and from the venue by helicopter. He was scheduled to take the following flight out, but asked if he could get on that earlier flight. Rumor has it that he wanted to get back to his hotel room where he reportedly had a stash of "stuff". The weather was acting up that day. The flight that he was on was impacted by the weather conditions, causing it to crash into a hillside or something. The music world lost the great guitar man, Stevie Ray, on that day.
@@watchinit6063 Stevie got sober in 1986 and his brother Jimmie has said he was still livin' clean when he died on August 27, 1990.
@@watchinit6063 No no, Stevie Ray had been Clean and Sober since 1986. He wanted to get back to Chicago to call his girlfriend. Someone said he could call her from there, but no, he wanted to get back. Sometimes he would talk to the audience in the middle of a song, like we were all friends, that he almost died, that it kept him from giving love and recognizing it, cautioning them they could be hurt real bad or die. beautiful.
"Life Without You" and "Pride and Joy" are great songs too. Deep dive on him is a GIFT! Lol. RIP SRV.
Stevie Didn't Play Music,, He Was The Music..I Used To Say The Same Thing After Every Stevie Performance,, "That POOR Mo'fkn Guitar"🔥🎸🔥
Stevie Ray Vaughn blew me away the first time I had seen him and heard him. I still feel the same way today. I'm 70 yrs. old and he gives me the chills when I see him play the blues.
He lived, he left a legacy, he will never b forgotten 🙏🎸🎶💯
Stevie was the classic working mans guitar playing stud. his feel for rhythm and finding the groove was beyond compare. Have loved his work for 40 years.
146am. I grew up in Texas down the street from Billy Gibbons in Houston he was probably 14. The start of my ears perking to Texas Blues. Of course it was influenced by the original blues men but those like Billy and Stevie worshiped their blues elders like gods. It sort of became roadhouse blues that’s how I now perceive it but it is all a result of the originals, the elders.
Texas just has a way of adding an energy that is it’s own juice purely from being so inspired by their idols and mentors.
They listened carefully, they were moved by the blues legends and they became immersed in working to connect with these original blues men. Remember this is back when you actually had to have talent standing there with no machines you could blow the roof off… You just fucking needed to be there hoping to some day be a part .The greats don’t look at their guitars as you mentioned they surrender and allow the music to come through them. A good friend of mine‘s father played with Stevie Ray on the road for many years and his son young son traveled a lot and being around that caliber of musicians you can’t help but absorb it. My friend is a guitar god. Hendrix‘s producer came out of retirement to produce this young man’s album. This is an important point to remember because the all-time greats are either gone or going down. It’s evident in the last 20 years, and I believe we need a music revolution. The elders-the greats that are still here need to be respected and sought out by the young people who don’t even know what the origin of a song is or why they’re influenced by it. I started a nonprofit almost a decade ago to educate and provide musical instruments and education to kids that otherwise could not afford an instrument. It’s been very successful and we have been able to draw international acclaimed artists and musicians to work directly in a small setting in our local schools to empower and encourage kids. It’s been the most rewarding thing I’ve done in my career and we’ve actually never made a dime personally we just pass on whatever we can raise to the artists of the future. Music shelters, heals, and connects us all. It is necessary for a healthy community and ultimately a healthy planet. But it takes a third party that is not part of the business of music financially nor can we expect our schools to fund this. Music and art programs are cut out or crippled, while athletics are generally placed first. Music is essential and takes us places simply by listening, moving, being transported for a few minutes or hours that empower us to carry on with our lives.
It is wonderful to see young people appreciating the music of days gone by. The blues, and all of the music that is rooted in the blues (rock), should never die - keep them alive! Computer generated music, and auto tune, should not be the mainstay of our futures.
It's his conviction that has made Stevie one of the all time greats! Once in a lifetime great!
Love your reaction! Thanks for bringing Stevie Ray back out for the audience.
SRV, the Greatest Bluesman Texas ever produced, gone way too soon, RIP..
My sister went into mourning when Stevie Ray died. So did my dad. He was a student of BB King and Albert King. His brother talks about how he played what he felt in the moment. Very few can do what he did. He is sorely missed.
