Eric Clapton arguably one of the top 5. SRV left us too quick. I agree he is a gentleman in this performance. SRV IS SHOWING MAJOR RESPECT TO A LEGENDS
Clapton is a king among mediocre wannabes. I love Stevie too. But Clapton is one of the best even playing backgrounds for Pink and Tracy Chapman his presence is always prominent. Listen to 2 minutes of invisible
For those who don't know, Albert King invented the concept of the extended guitar solo. He was also the first to do those crazy step and a half "trainwreck" bends.
@@pamelapalmer2832you are correct two legendary masters will not see something this special again I think music today just doesn't seem to be in this level glad I heard these men Texas Flood and course the Legendary Blues at Sunrise the greatest live album I have heard and that says something even better than Grand Funk Railroad live If you want blood you've got it And Bob Seger live and that truly is saying something
Lord, I pray for Your protection and care over my home. May it be a place of safety, warmth, and hospitality. Bless everyone who enters with Your grace and ensure that our home is always filled with Your divine presence.
My father was a get down like u live blues player an I remember him playin with albert king an when I came across this jam session I love me some Stevie ray ,this is killing me an lovin every bit of it oh yeah
Agree 100%. Bad luck these days aren't life's bad luck. Mostly self-described as bad luck. I really feel for the newer generations. It's not their fault for being so impressionable as to bad luck as we know it. Can only hope realisation is received soon 🙏 These songs are derived from some heavy duty times that is unfathomable to the newer generations. Blues forever!! I hope that the newer generations find the blues 🙏
70 yr. Old here.. remembering listening to SRV since almost infancy, or seems like it..and find myself closing me eyes, and saying to myself " oh hell yeah!!" Or " Thats right..play it son!!" "Bend those strings and let it talk!".. Jimmy? He's good.. but, ain't nobody can make that Strat speak the way Stevie did..sorry
It is epic. Stevie Ray and the great Albert King. We have so little to remember Stevie by compared to others. I was so happy to stumble on this session.
Here's one for ya, Doyall Bramhall 2 doing Outside Woman Blues on the Clapton's Crossroads concert in 2007. He also does a song called Rosie on there, they're both damn good👍
Human trauma human blues and human culture and the heart to speak of it as you're dying! That's why all rocks That's where you build your foundation and that's why we have gravestones otherwise you fall into the all-in-consuming fire or light take your choice. And there ain't much you want after being born because it's like guns n' roses said you're going to die... 🎉 🌘💜🌒
Dude that was my exact thought what you shed the rhythm section always gets overlooked and I'm saying that from the point of view of a guitarist I'm not a bass player or a drummer I love to play the bass I love to play the drums but any good musician knows that there's a big difference between playing and being one LOL I've been practicing bass and drums now for about a year and a half and I have a huge respect for good players I don't think I have enough time left on Earth to be able to get them down like I do the guitar. I have the guitar 40 years under my belt bass and drums one all these dudes are awesome and at least 50% argan and yeah to reply to another person's comment at the same time they better preserve this because since about 95 percent of the current generation and upcoming don't even know what the hell a guitar yes yes. We have allowed the world to be populated by talentless hacks who are not musicians at all. Just because you can push a button and play a drum beat and just because you actually can speak and have maybe some control over whatever language it is that half these guys are speaking these days in rap and garbage like thatdoesn't make you a rapper. Unbelievable. And I'm not anti-rap it's not my favorite by any means I'm a little old for that but I can recognize who is clearly talented musically with rap and who's not and usually the case is the ones who grew up listening to music actual music are the ones who put out this mumbling crap filled with nothing but obscenity racism hatred murder sexual perversion and every other hedonistic ugly thing this world has in it glorifying all of this is hardly the same thing as what we're seeing here. AI save us all at least in the musical community hopefully it'll recognize s*** and destroy it
I grew up listening to music from a time when that was all we had to get by on. Whether is was hyms of gospel, versuses from soul, the love in the the bottom of country, or tears generated by the lyrics of the blues, you made it work. What Mr. King and Mr. Vaughan showed us was the purest form of life created by true masters of their craft. Their mutual respect and appreciation for each other is PUREST form of love among men. They will continue to live on through the magic of audio and video for m others to enjoy. ✌🏿 and 1 LOVE
With headphones on, you can hear someone from the backing back laugh out loud at that statement. Respect to them all! Takes a full band to make this work. That said, no one will ever convince me that there ever was or will be a better blues "fiddler" than Stevie.
I was very lucky to be able as a young musician to see Mr King live in Austin. My dad took me to one of the last concerts while I was in high school. I just wish that I could have been able to experience SRV with him together! They have both been a great influence in my music.
@@jarrellbamberger545Beautiful! N hey listen, take it from me, if it's meant to happen to you or not? Just know that's just the way "it" is suppose to be🙂 N hey my left hand hates my right hand, surprised they can clap together😆😂 But listen, really. If I didn't have music on all day until I'm ready to settle in? I'd go fuckin crazy! You sweetie! Go play that music n have your soul guide your fingers! Peace & Love🧡💚🧡
My all time favorite “git fiddle players. And favorite recording right here with both masters. Stevie the Pupil with his favorite Teacher, Sir Albert. Thanks to AM-WDIA Memphis for introducing me to Albert’s music as a small child listening on my grandparents’s AM radio late late at night when I should have been asleep. Worn this CD out at least 3 times. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@Msapere absolutely also to the cameramen, directors, producers, whomever studio that was, musicians, whomever idea it was 2 put these 2 legends together even to the damn youtuber who unloaded this video. So thankful to everyone 😁
Albert played in flat e and b flat a lot he had some incredible licks but a times he could be repetitive but damn Albert dripped the blues,what he was able to do was done at a very high level for certain
Absolutely astonishing. SRV shows so much respect to Mr King, studying his every move, waiting for signals to lead then come back. It's a great pity SRV did not have the opportunity to step into those shoes. RIP Gentlemen.
SRV showed respect in the form of restraint. SRV was ready to unload the blues, but realized it wasn't appropriate to do everything he could. The man could've got fire and weird with it but chose to play conservatively and stick to the staple blues
No this was srv paying homage, not about blistering the neck. If you recognize the parts where Albert was being more vocal in his notes, and Stevie was still playing the same signature licks he plays, don't think for a second he could do what Albert does, that's the beauty of Stevie. He knew Albert still had some strange vocal abilities like horn players to his riffs, and srv let him accentuate them. I love srv, but I've been playing for over 30years blues guitar and can see exactly what was going on, yes Stevie was holding back, but, he also knew that if given the time, and warming up, and comfortable place to jam, then Albert turns into a completely different player, using other than his own signature licks. This was about giving back, and also pushing Albert to his most uncomfortable places, yet supporting him. So let's stop the whole head cutting thing, this wasn't that
And King right back stating you need to show me hiw you're doing it. 2 powerful richly. Talented superstars playing like kids and giving their prospers. Both like I need to see this and show what you just did. They are having so much fun I can't stop looking. Neither trying to be better. Both doing their best . Love and encouragement. We need alot of this in our world. 😢 matters how we treat each other. We're all smiling from 5 weeks ago when I saw it the first time. Get it boys. And please keep giving it back
They used to show this on PBS at my grandma's house and she was deaf. One day she came in my room after she had the choclear implants and she was like oh I hear music now. I mean I was beefin it pretty bad. Like sit down and look at this with me grandma. It was a pretty cool thing. Like ok so that is music thing is cool. Rip grandma.
At age 69 and a lover all good music and voice these guys are in my soul . They are my generation and we are not a lost generation we are the people of America. We know where we are .
I like all relaxed Albert is, Sometimes blues is the best music for a good mood, you can't deny. Kids today just don't care for it except a few. It wasn't ever a question for me. I heard it and I loved it.
I was a security guard driving a van and I did the same when I heard the news... I had just seen him with Jeff Beck just weeks earlier in S. Fla.... and I actually threw a frisbee to SRV at a Tulane University stopover in 82 or 83 (along with about 50 other partiers) when he quit David Bowie's tour and was on his way back to Texas.
Stevie's Death Hit Us ALL Hard!🥺 I Had Seen Him Just Mere Weeks Before....He Was Sober & So Happy & Sounded SO Good - God Love Him! SOUL💞Soul, Stevie💗😘
I thought I sent that last comment to Ka-Bar. Maybe this will go to him. I first saw only the "Don't Lie to Me" part of the session, sound was great! Don't know why it's not as good here, but it's not horrible
@@johnsallee7824 I'm not saying it is not good. I'm saying that they should digitally remaster the entire session, but it is not a complaint against you. I enjoyed watching it.
When you watch Stevie and his movements and mannerisms it really looks like he's pushing his soul through the guitar. This dude was a guitar, wearing a human suit 😂 what a one of a kind. RIP to the greatest 🙏
THAAANK YOU FOR POSTING HIS GIFT... HE HAS SUCH A HISTORY...PLUS A MUSICAL "PROGRESSION" AS WE ALL DO IN OUR OWN LIFES WALK... AND IM SO THANKFUL THAT I KNOW MORE ABOUT HIS HISTORY.... MUCH RESPECT!!!! AND YES I AGREE... THERE'S A FEELING THAT ONLY AN ELECTRIC GUITAR CAN TELL... LUCILLE....MMMMM
@@TheBigbry8 and your thoughts? hahaha It's so unbelievable its like it was fiction!! Albert channels shit from another dimension and completey outplays Stevie and says "sit down and watch your master bring his own song home". Watch Stevie's face during Alberts last solo before he brings it home. SRV inspired his master to play better than he ever has before! Haha This is THE ONLY TIME anyone's ever outplayed and matched SRV note for note, then completely destroys him and leaves SRV note-less. I challenge anyone to find anyone outplaying Stevie like this. Please share the link if you think I'm wrong. I'm not! The last solo by Albert is absolute destruction channeled from another dimension!! SRV thought he ended the song with his UNGODLY solos right before. hahahaha His face when he sees Albert bring it home is priceless. He knows he was outmatched by his master and he's loving every second of it!! Praise GOD FOR THESE 2 GENIUSES of Music. PRAISE GOD FOR #THEBLUES!
Albuquerque and Stevie Ray Vaughan are true Legends in my heroes I support them until I die they are awesome Stevie Ray Vaughan you're my hero Albert Craig you are to
I just discovered this. Jesus. Knew AK was a huge influence on SRV but I didn't realize how much SRV's style follows AK's from soft and mellow to bending strings on face-melting solos. This is an incredible piece of music history. Love the blues.
watch Albert completely outmatch SRV notefor note at the end of "Don't Lie to Me" and watch Stevie's face! haha He completely destroys his own song and channels something from another dimension
Me too. So enlightening to see true mutual respect between the mentor and the student. So sad when we lost Stevie Ray. Immortallity on earth live in memories. King and Vaughn are already passed on to my kids. Lets keep it going. Great men.
King was left-handed, but usually played right-handed guitars flipped over upside-down with the high E on top. He never played the 6th low E. Only later in his career did he play guitar s designed for lefties, the first made by Dan Erlewine in the late’70s.
At the beginning of the clip, Albert was basically telling SRV.."You are the man!!" What a feeling that must have been for Vaughan to hear that from one of his guitar heroes!
@@treypeters1087 I'm not sure what you're watching but you can see in Albert kings mannerisms he knew who the better guitar player was on this day. It's not an offense to him. By this time he was older and Stevie was in his prime.
This might be the best long recording of 2 blues masters enjoying each other's company, experience, and unassuming improv of the last 50 years or maybe ever. IMO 🤣🤣🤣
I haven't read all the comments, but let me be the first or perhaps one of the few to point out what it terrific singer Albert King was. A wonderful voice, velvety,strong, flexible, direct and subtle. Combined with his legendary guitar sound he was overwhelming. Stevie really knew how to pick his heroes.
We People From The South Simply Refer To It As "Soulful". Albert King And Marvin Junior Of "The Dells" Are Two Of The Most Noteworthy Voices With Such Tonality... Unless You Attended A Black Church In The South During The 40'-60's.
I am so thankful I came across this jam session and it was on the net for me to get to hear it! This is one of those moments in time captured that can never be duplicated and I’m thankful I got to see it. I believe that any true Stevie Ray Vaughan fan should see this. It’s such a great tribute to him and his mentor the great Albert king.
What's wonderful is that they are enjoying themselves. I saw SRV in London and he was kicking it! Such a feel - good gig. I actually still have my tickets for the week after his demise. Didn't know quite what to do with them so did nothing. Meanwhile I've seen other bands who were just there to earn their bread and butter. Fair enough. Seasick Steve also has a fabulous stage presence for anyone interested. Everyone has a great time - on stage or off!
@@billatnip6425 I'm sure Mr James will put me straight on them. He got me into The Marshall Tucker Band and George Thoroughgood. I've seen Seasick twice at the old Hammy Odeon and SRV once at the same venue. Still have my tickets for when he didn't make it.
Hello 👋 Eddie. How are you doing? Hope you are fine, I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where you are from? You seem like a real country girl
The GREATEST f'n guitar player that EVER f'n lived!!!!! NO ONE could do it like SRV!!! Not before. Not then. Not since. NOT EVER!!! And I don't give a damn what ANYONE says!!!!! 🎸 🐐
It Does Not get any Better than this Here, SRV & Albert King, Stevie looked up to him like he was his Dad, R.I.P. To Both, The Music will live on Forever, Cousin Figel
It's been some years since I've made any comments on these Two great blues singers and guitar players but Mr. Albert King/ Mr. Stevie Rayvaughn are always going to be my #1 father and son 💙 I just love and enjoy listening to them both together or separately ❤
Had the absolute pleasure to meet Stevie in 85' at a concert at a college in NY. He was a gentleman, very kind. Got to watch him from backstage. My mind was blown out of my skull, I always knew he was in a league all on his own from the get go. The best, the absolute best, the man became one with his guitar. Incredible, one of the best memories I have still to this day.
STEVIE RAY SINGLE HANDEDLY BROUGHT THE BLUES BACK FROM THE DEAD. EVERYONE WAS PLAYING SMALL NIGHT CLUBS,NOT MAKIN ANY MONEY, NOT MAKIN RECORDS,NO RADIO PLAY. TIL STEVIE PLAYED LEAD ON DAVID BOWIES LET'S DANCE. THEN CAME OUT WITH HIS FIRST ALBUM........THE REST IS HISTORY!!!! 🙏 RIP STEVIE.
let’s take it farther and make the Beginning great again! of all existences. let’s create the spiral of Spirits highway that leads straight Home to Gods creators and selves. then onto the highest deepest place beyond that… The Nucleus. always tested by being placed in shit to fertilize the nut,… da Seed . then POP goes the bubble, a flood of divinity gushing in every direction that comes to ONEs nourishment until we can land the mothership. hold on kids it’s about to get exciting,.. and potent. transforming. HEALING! NOW. someone needs that left shoulder kneaded out before it snaps! don’t hurt God like that, creators feel everything. no pain just watering babay

This is what music is about. Respecting your elders and having a positive time ❤
Bravo 👌👏😮
Eric Clapton said of SRV- ''Often you see us solo guitarists pause, looking to come up with a new riff to play, SRV could play solo nonstop".
Honestly, and y'all can get mad all you want, but it should have been Clapton on that helicopter. He's a POS
Love you guy's
@@Dr.ZoidbergPhDagreed. Stevie should still be here.
Eric Clapton arguably one of the top 5. SRV left us too quick. I agree he is a gentleman in this performance. SRV IS SHOWING MAJOR RESPECT TO A LEGENDS
Clapton is a king among mediocre wannabes. I love Stevie too. But Clapton is one of the best even playing backgrounds for Pink and Tracy Chapman his presence is always prominent. Listen to 2 minutes of invisible

We will see it when we get to heaven! And yes it always makes me cry and dance. So thankful for these two

Every Young Person needs to watch this. Start to finish. Because this is the epitome of talent, class, love and Above All The Blues! 🙏🏽
You touch my❤ live the blues the two greatest guitarist's other than Hendrix that I have heard probably their like will not be seen again
Words can't describe the chemistry between these men legends
The greatest performance of two guitarist's I have ever seen period

Imagine being at that gig
Look how how BB wraps his fingers like Jimi Hendrix does
That has to be a rickenbacher
My ok
70 yr. Old here.. remembering listening to SRV since almost infancy, or seems like it..and find myself closing me eyes, and saying to myself " oh hell yeah!!" Or " Thats right..play it son!!" "Bend those strings and let it talk!".. Jimmy? He's good.. but, ain't nobody can make that Strat speak the way Stevie did..sorry
Right on my friend 👍
Jimmy Vaughan would be the very first person to tell you that he is not Stevie Ray Vaughan, and neither is anyone else now or ever.
74 yr old here, I’m Linda
Amen,Linda😘
I absolutely love how Albert praises and encourages SRV! Like a proud grandfather, this video is priceless, two GIANTS and the torch being passed!
The way Albert smiles without looking when Stevie hits those licks
Complete classic
Stevie was born Dallas Texas died aged 35 in a helicopter what a tragedy. One bad desicion is all it Takes he didn't wanna fly that nite but ...😢
55:55 🤠🤠🤠
Amen ❤
I need a cigarette after hearing this, and I don’t even smoke 😵💫😎👍👍
Dude for real this made me rethink 20 years of geetar pickin
Maybe you could work through that with your therapist,...TMI Bubba, just TMI.
Lol
Can you imagine the jam session in heaven with these 2 "just kickin' it"?
Over 4 decades later......it STILL rocks!!!
This is the greatest video I've ever accidentally stumbled upon on TH-cam. A masterpiece of musical history
Stumble upon Marcus King and Billy Strings "Summertime"

It is epic. Stevie Ray and the great Albert King. We have so little to remember Stevie by compared to others. I was so happy to stumble on this session.
Y’all all got the best responses, I’ll throw mine in: Beth Hart did Change is gonna Come during Covid. I always go back to it

This is absolutely the best collaboration in music history ! RIHP !
i think it is ment in a teasing way and not literrally. Like an older brother teasing his younger one to show some love :)
THAT BASSIST IS UNREAL
😅and the fly on the wall too
Top notch ensemble all the way around. Dudes can play.
You will never see two legends like this again
@ramonnnieves6059 You are right, fortunately for me, I got to see them when they were with us.
Ever!
Rock it!!
Albert King was thinking:
"Man I taught this boy good! "
This may sound corny, but the way Mr. King just seemed so genuinely proud of and happy for Stevie, is as beautiful as the music they made together.
I was thinking something similar. Ditto
it is corny
King was happy Stevie had brought the blues back
I was very lucky to be able as a young musician to see Mr King live in Austin. My dad took me to one of the last concerts while I was in high school. I just wish that I could have been able to experience SRV with him together! They have both been a great influence in my music.

What ! 40 years ago? GD when i get so old? Where all that time go? 40 years...
Pound for pound, riff for riff, Albert King is the most authentic bluesman that ever strapped on a six string. The voice, the lyrics and the chops!
Little old Stevie Ray Vaughan is pound for a pound much lighter LOL
Love your pound for pound, riff for riff.......great

My sweet little baby My love and joy❤ in memory of my pride and joy ❤Tammy ❤ my wife and best 🧡 🙏RIP❤
It got style, it got melody, it got feelings, it got flavour, it got techniques, it got skill, it got talent. This music has everything..
Stevie, playing with his greatest Mentor, and the Mentor amazed, at Stevie... Soooo Great! A Moment in Time
You can tell the respect that Stevie has for Albert! So damn good!!
Definitely. He was laying back out of the great respect he had for him.@@MichaelWilson-ql8si
Absolutely 🥰👍🏾
2023 im still coming back to this because there isnt a better jam-along track out there
Thank you for letting me sing harmony on this beautiful song for all those times! I hold this song in the highest regard.
I like all relaxed Albert is, Sometimes blues is the best music for a good mood, you can't deny. Kids today just don't care for it except a few. It wasn't ever a question for me. I heard it and I loved it.
When Stevie died I was at work and spent the day blubbering like a small child. I was 41,
Damn brother I wish I could have been alive when Stevie was.what a pleasure 74 now right? keep rockin bro.
Awwww... poor Stevie, gone too soon.
I was like 8
I was a security guard driving a van and I did the same when I heard the news... I had just seen him with Jeff Beck just weeks earlier in S. Fla.... and I actually threw a frisbee to SRV at a Tulane University stopover in 82 or 83 (along with about 50 other partiers) when he quit David Bowie's tour and was on his way back to Texas.
Stevie's Death Hit Us ALL Hard!🥺 I Had Seen Him Just Mere Weeks Before....He Was Sober & So Happy & Sounded SO Good - God Love Him! SOUL💞Soul, Stevie💗😘
This NEEDS to be digitally remastered to give it the proper respect it deserves and to ensure it is saved for future generations. So damn good!
It is. There is an album from this session called steve ray vaughan and albert king in session
I'm gonna' go and get that myself, thanks and how awesome was this moment in time!? ✌️♥️🎸🎶🙏
I only saw the "Don't Lie to Me" part of the session a while back and it was just fine. The sound here isn't as good, but not horrible
I thought I sent that last comment to Ka-Bar. Maybe this will go to him. I first saw only the "Don't Lie to Me" part of the session, sound was great! Don't know why it's not as good here, but it's not horrible
@@johnsallee7824 I'm not saying it is not good. I'm saying that they should digitally remaster the entire session, but it is not a complaint against you. I enjoyed watching it.
Make that guitar talk!! Lord, have mercy!!
black lefty and white righty in love with guitars and blues...
It's called smelter the rhythm my fellow friend..,
No ego, just mentor and protege rehashing old times. I hope Albert and Stevie are putting on one hell of a show in the hereafter.
I'm so thankful that I grew up in a household that loved the blues.
When you watch Stevie and his movements and mannerisms it really looks like he's pushing his soul through the guitar. This dude was a guitar, wearing a human suit 😂 what a one of a kind. RIP to the greatest 🙏
I saw him in London, Hammy Odeon. I think in 1989. He, and the whole band, were enjoying themselves. Wonderful. I bought tickets for his next tour...
No Doubt,,,, BEST DAMN BLUES GUITARIST GOD ever CREATED
WHAT A GREAT LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GATHERED HERE.
I come back back to read the comments to warm my soul.
Thank you ALL.
Are you shitting me? What a find!! 2 guitar geniuses playing together. I think I'm in heaven man!!
U r in Heaven man!!!😅😊
All I have to say is heaven is jamming right now, my Lord. RIP Stevie & Albert you both are truly missed!
THAAANK YOU FOR POSTING HIS GIFT...
HE HAS SUCH A HISTORY...PLUS A MUSICAL "PROGRESSION" AS WE ALL DO IN OUR OWN LIFES WALK... AND IM SO THANKFUL THAT I KNOW MORE ABOUT HIS HISTORY....
MUCH RESPECT!!!!
AND YES I AGREE... THERE'S A FEELING THAT ONLY AN ELECTRIC GUITAR CAN TELL...
LUCILLE....MMMMM
Oh man look at the way Albert King looks at SRV. What huge respect and vise versa. It really doesn't get much better than this 🎸🎸RIP
Yes ,,,,like a big brother. It is so beautiful brings me to tears of joy!!!!!
If it were'nt for Black Musicians, there would be no Blues!
@@SeanMorgan280
Albert is learning lead licks fr Stevie
The blues come from the black folk.. straight up
One of the greatest moments recorded in American music history. They completely destroy "Don't Lie to Me"! Thank you Stevie and Albert! Praise God! ❤️
Hell yah! Is the ONLY APPROPRIATE response to this!
Only? Naw. Amen.
I’m listenin to that right now 🤙🏼
@@TheBigbry8 and your thoughts? hahaha It's so unbelievable its like it was fiction!! Albert channels shit from another dimension and completey outplays Stevie and says "sit down and watch your master bring his own song home". Watch Stevie's face during Alberts last solo before he brings it home. SRV inspired his master to play better than he ever has before! Haha This is THE ONLY TIME anyone's ever outplayed and matched SRV note for note, then completely destroys him and leaves SRV note-less. I challenge anyone to find anyone outplaying Stevie like this. Please share the link if you think I'm wrong. I'm not! The last solo by Albert is absolute destruction channeled from another dimension!! SRV thought he ended the song with his UNGODLY solos right before. hahahaha His face when he sees Albert bring it home is priceless. He knows he was outmatched by his master and he's loving every second of it!! Praise GOD FOR THESE 2 GENIUSES of Music. PRAISE GOD FOR #THEBLUES!
Yeah, it was a great moment in music history, that was recorded in Hamilton, Ontario, CANADA.
Steve was undeniably the most gifted guitarist on the planet earth period. But I stand corrected. God rest his soul in eternal peace. Amen
❤
True icons forever
I'll die trying to sound like these two musical geniuses.....long live the blues, baby. Long live the blues
.
Loving this relationship that these gentlemen shared. It's what we need more of right now..
Demetrius, do not watch the conventional News too much.
To Demetrius and Everybody, the times are not "extraordinarily" bad right now. The times have always been bad.
😅@@user-fi3hc8fy8ptrue
@@user-fi3hc8fy8ponly thing is that people now see any shit happens almost real time
Albuquerque and Stevie Ray Vaughan are true Legends in my heroes I support them until I die they are awesome Stevie Ray Vaughan you're my hero Albert Craig you are to
King: “Stevie, give em a lick or two over there” SRV: Riffs the strings off the guitar🫡 😍😎
I just discovered this. Jesus. Knew AK was a huge influence on SRV but I didn't realize how much SRV's style follows AK's from soft and mellow to bending strings on face-melting solos. This is an incredible piece of music history. Love the blues.
watch Albert completely outmatch SRV notefor note at the end of "Don't Lie to Me" and watch Stevie's face! haha He completely destroys his own song and channels something from another dimension
Got that right
Totally agree with you!
Steve is the only artist that can impress Albert. He sees Steve dedication to his style and is overwhelmed. This music is magic.
"Bad luck and Trouble are my only friends" - man, that's some BLUES right there 🥺
was born in 83 .. Love these boy . 23/04/24
Some don't believe in such things as magic...but there it is for all to hear.
Going thru a bad spell. This made my heart sing again.
Best wishes, Laura.
Me too. So enlightening to see true mutual respect between the mentor and the student. So sad when we lost Stevie Ray. Immortallity on earth live in memories. King and Vaughn are already passed on to my kids. Lets keep it going. Great men.
Sorry you are going through a bad spell. You are in my prayers
That's a definition of Blues.
real
I just noticed Alberts guitar is strung backwards.. incredible!
King was left-handed, but usually played right-handed guitars flipped over upside-down with the high E on top. He never played the 6th low E. Only later in his career did he play guitar s designed for lefties, the first made by Dan Erlewine in the late’70s.
Not backwards for him
Lefty ❣️
THE MAN'S A SOUTHPAW,...WHATEVER GETS THE JOB DONE, LETTIN' THE DEMONS RUN LOOSE YALL!
Eric Gales plays the same way.
Recorded 40 years ago yesterday. Timeless 🔥
I watch this as part of Playlist in my opinion BB king gave SRV a blessing
They have their own look and dress, yet become one in the music❤️ Nothing is more beautiful!
At the beginning of the clip, Albert was basically telling SRV.."You are the man!!" What a feeling that must have been for Vaughan to hear that from one of his guitar heroes!
I cant count anymore how many times I came back to this video. Its just a joy to see these two blues kings over and over again. What a masterpiece.
Love it too ❤
Just found it myself...
It's the fourth time I've watched this. It gets more amazing every time.
I just cant believe there both dead and gone hope there still.playing in heaven side by side every night shredding snd smileing R.I.P
.YOU HAM BONES
I will watch this over and over and over again!
I watch it about twice a week.
I absolutely love the way Stevie shows respect to Mr. Abert,just like good southern man should.Quality through and through.
Apparently Mr King didn't like white blokes playing the blues (cultural appropriation) but he had a great deal of time for SRV. Which is evident.
Will never see another Stevie Ray such a open musical Channel
I love how Stevie stays humble and doesn't show off around his idol, ensuring not to make him feel less worthy. What a legend!
Your still young man
Albert King is the man!
Albert King is a legendary bluesman, yes, and not to be discounted but at this moment in time Stevie could not be touched.
he was starting to try until seeing albert school him with ease
@@treypeters1087 I'm not sure what you're watching but you can see in Albert kings mannerisms he knew who the better guitar player was on this day. It's not an offense to him. By this time he was older and Stevie was in his prime.
They will never be replaced. The only one they are missing is the most excellent Janis. RIP my brothers and sister.
It’s hard to put into words the feelings watching your guitar hero watch his guitar hero.
well put....nice.
❤
RIP Albert and Stevie! Legends!!!!❤❤❤❤
These artists are kings no doubts
This might be the best long recording of 2 blues masters enjoying each other's company, experience, and unassuming improv of the last 50 years or maybe ever. IMO 🤣🤣🤣
True
I haven't read all the comments, but let me be the first or perhaps one of the few to point out what it terrific singer Albert King was. A wonderful voice, velvety,strong, flexible, direct and subtle. Combined with his legendary guitar sound he was overwhelming. Stevie really knew how to pick his heroes.
We People From The South Simply Refer To It As "Soulful". Albert King And Marvin Junior Of "The Dells" Are Two Of The Most Noteworthy Voices With Such Tonality... Unless You Attended A Black Church In The South During The 40'-60's.
Blues at its best you feel it deep in your Soul can you feel it?
Amen!
Damn right!
One of the originals, Albert King was every blues player's inspiration.
Imagine your hero looks at you in complete awe. SRV was just so happy to fulfill a life long dream
I am so thankful I came across this jam session and it was on the net for me to get to hear it! This is one of those moments in time captured that can never be duplicated and I’m thankful I got to see it. I believe that any true Stevie Ray Vaughan fan should see this. It’s such a great tribute to him and his mentor the great Albert king.
What's wonderful is that they are enjoying themselves. I saw SRV in London and he was kicking it! Such a feel - good gig. I actually still have my tickets for the week after his demise. Didn't know quite what to do with them so did nothing. Meanwhile I've seen other bands who were just there to earn their bread and butter. Fair enough. Seasick Steve also has a fabulous stage presence for anyone interested. Everyone has a great time - on stage or off!
@@millyjames7891didn't think there were many Seasick fans .But I tend toward the different. Ray Willie Hubbard .Tony Joe White so on
@@billatnip6425 I'm sure Mr James will put me straight on them. He got me into The Marshall Tucker Band and George Thoroughgood. I've seen Seasick twice at the old Hammy Odeon and SRV once at the same venue. Still have my tickets for when he didn't make it.
This is the definition of cool. I was born in the wrong era!! The blues makes my spirit so happy!!
Go on and waste your words. This kind of collaboration is beyond them all. This is what god wanted when he said..."play me some blues"....
Hello 👋 Eddie. How are you doing? Hope you are fine, I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado. Where you are from? You seem like a real country girl
Wow.... brother...woooo
@@markclifford1857WTF 😒
Got that right
❤best
The GREATEST f'n guitar player that EVER f'n lived!!!!! NO ONE could do it like SRV!!! Not before. Not then. Not since. NOT EVER!!! And I don't give a damn what ANYONE says!!!!! 🎸 🐐
This was the best jam in history in my opinion. Legends.
Agreeeee
All That Was Done By Anyone Has Had Its Own Purpose In Its Own Time.
I agree, “GENIUSES “ 🔥🔥
It Does Not get any Better than this Here, SRV & Albert King, Stevie looked up to him like he was his Dad, R.I.P. To Both, The Music will live on Forever, Cousin Figel
I saw Albert King grab a drop of sweat from his brow and apply it to the strings,what a bluesman!! 😊
It's been some years since I've made any comments on these Two great blues singers and guitar players but Mr. Albert King/ Mr. Stevie Rayvaughn are always going to be my #1 father and son 💙 I just love and enjoy listening to them both together or separately ❤
The bass player is holding his own, SRV and Albert are amazing, but the bassist deserves some respect
Bassist never deserve respect
Don’t forget the drummer!!
Definitely knows what he’s doing
This bass player agrees!
Всё одинаково восхитительно хороши!!!
Yeah I'm a bass player and they keep that same riff over and over again was killing me
Had the absolute pleasure to meet Stevie in 85' at a concert at a college in NY. He was a gentleman, very kind. Got to watch him from backstage. My mind was blown out of my skull, I always knew he was in a league all on his own from the get go. The best, the absolute best, the man became one with his guitar. Incredible, one of the best memories I have still to this day.
❤ BB and Stevie❤ Have Mercy ...Memphis Delta Blues...RIP❤ Just meant to be ❤
So very grateful to music like that. Hallelujah
The way Albert King keeps adjusting and telling Stevie to go on is so beyond respect.....Albert King is a legend and SRV is a Diety!!!
Had This NOT been on film ... no one would believe . just how amazing these two artist were. .. .. wow !!! love both these guys.. TRUE MUSIC !!!!
STEVIE RAY SINGLE HANDEDLY BROUGHT THE BLUES BACK FROM THE DEAD. EVERYONE WAS PLAYING SMALL NIGHT CLUBS,NOT MAKIN ANY MONEY, NOT MAKIN RECORDS,NO RADIO PLAY. TIL STEVIE PLAYED LEAD ON DAVID BOWIES LET'S DANCE. THEN CAME OUT WITH HIS FIRST ALBUM........THE REST IS
