I have played in bands for almost 30 years. The first 5 years on guitar i was into metal because i didn't listen to anything else. 1 day a friend brought a video of Stevie Ray Vaughan live at the El Mocambo. Ever since then i dove into the blues realm and all the music surrounding it. I can't ever get enough of SRV's music.
The live at El Mocambo gig is one of the greatest live shows to be captured on film ever,you feel the heat of the room,the sweat of everyone,smell the smoke & it must have been mega loud,what I would give to have been there,like you I love metal etc,but I remember hearing pride & joy & then watched this on VHS at the time & it blew me away mate,so wish I,d have seen him,one of the greatest 💔💔
Thank you for sharing this story. My 27, 25 and 15 yr old kids were raised on Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. Now I’m sharing it with new kids as young as 8. Your story reignited my love of their music.
When i saw that picture years ago,little did i know that this great actor was not just friends with Stevie,but could actually say he was in a band with him,that picture must be so so precious ❤❤R.I.P SRV 💔💔
I saw the original interview and this follow up is great. I never doubted the voracity of the original story. Talk about “Walking in the footsteps of giants”. What an amazing story. Loved it.
I saw Stevie Ray Vaughan a few months before he died in Hamilton, Canada, he opened for Joe Cocker. Great show, they even did a duet at end. Wasn't the best venue, a big hockey arena, would've preferred a small club setting. But hey, can't complain!
No movie, no series… nobody could do him justice. We have ACL, Live at El Mocambo, etc etc. countless interviews.. the Real Thing. that’s all we’ve ever had, that’s all we need.
Hehe... as long as you were talking to Mr Tobolowsky about the comments to his 'revelation', you could have mentioned my request to let us hear the outtakes... But the real reason I comment now is just to say that I'm pleased to see that Mr Tobolowsky looked after his copy of the album. Considering the album is now 50 years old (released in 1971- happy anniversary), his copy is in surprisingly good condition. My copy is in excellent condition too, but it doesn't have the poster. Most (of the few) copies of this that I've seen are really badly looked after (most of the students that bought it presumably knew what 'Hi' was referring to). So good on you Mr Tobolowsky for respecting this small part of music history that you found yourself in the middle of.
This blew me away I've never known of this recording with Stevie Ray Vaigh On guitar. You could start to here his own style a couple of buts in both solos. What an absolute day starting treat! Stephen Tobolowsky was a legend before now he can add frontman who played with Stevie Ray Vaughn awesome!
Hi Glenn, look it up as there is another TH-cam channel with a video that has pictures from album Stephen was showing and it plays the songs Stevie was on. Awesome stuff!
Growing up in Texas in the 80’s we got spoiled. We could see SRV and Eric Johnson regularly for very little money from Austin City Limits to Greene Hall and Cheatham Street Pub. It influenced me and many other guitar players/musicians and music lovers. “Watch out! That first step is a doozy!” Ned, Ned Ryerson
Nice on the album. Anyone remember Tobolowsky's little spot on Californication as well? I just remember Fisher Stevens doing uh...yeah...and Tobolowsky saying, "that's my cue."
Confirmed and so fricken cool to listen to and know you are listening to greatness and imagine those adult and fellow band members hearing that for the first time and how blown away they must of been. Like catching lightning in a bottle that you know at any time is going to blow up in your hands because nothing that genius or great could ever or should ever be contained but just simply left to its own devices and evolve and just be glad you where here to hear and witness it!!! God Bless Stevie Ray Vaughan!
Those seemingly simple moments in life have the potential to bring so much significance. Great story. Stevie was a gift of genius from God. Thanks for sharing this!
We are setting up another interview with Stephen that’s a few months out, which he will hopefully be able to play record and tell more stories! Its a Stevie Ray Dedicated episode with many celebrities telling stories of Stevie. Will be released around time of the anniversary of his death.
I’ll be damned… Ned from Groundhog Day personally knew Stevie Ray Vaughan. That’s wild. I’m working on a major SRV feature for my channel, something I’ve had in the works for 15 years now… I’d love to pick this guy’s brain.

The SRV connections are very cool, but it also bears mentioning that Stephen seems like just the coolest, most decent guy to hang with.
Thank you pointing that out! Agreed! 🙌
You ain't wrong. As an SRV fanboy, this made me extremely happy!!!

Thanks so much for the update and that memorable photo!!
Thanks for the comment, and for watching!

Yeah, I am happy. I just loved this story and have enjoyed the telling so much.

Wasn't the best venue, a big hockey arena, would've preferred a small club setting. But hey, can't complain!
Thank you so much for this! It’s a fabulous addendum to the other video. What a story!
Why isn’t there a movie about Stevie. He was an absolute genius.
I would love an HBO tv show not a movie. His career is insane and can’t fit it all in just 2 and half hours.
Also don’t know who should play Stevie.
No movie, no series… nobody could do him justice. We have ACL, Live at El Mocambo, etc etc. countless interviews.. the Real Thing. that’s all we’ve ever had, that’s all we need.
@@Texasbluestunes I agree they shouldn’t but if they do it has to be a series not a movie. The queen movie sucked only good one is Ray IMO
@@JJ-mb5kt that’s a tough one. They’d have to look like him and learn to sing similarly. Adam Driver? 🤷♂️
I want to hear it!

I want to hear Stevie Vaughan though 😭

This was the best interview I’ve ever seen!!
Absolutely brilliant!!!
We need to hear the songs....

“Watch out! That first step is a doozy!”
Ned, Ned Ryerson
Great stuff! Tell me is that Ned Ryerson?
Yes!!! You are correct!
A friend of mine Christian Brooks was another one of those Oak Cliff kids back in the day I wonder if Stephen knew him ?
This is so awesome! Stephen I've always been a big fan of you from your movies and this story is really special. Thank you a million for sharing!
Nice on the album. Anyone remember Tobolowsky's little spot on Californication as well? I just remember Fisher Stevens doing uh...yeah...and Tobolowsky saying, "that's my cue."
Recuerdo escuchar en youtube una grabacion de Stevie en un colegio tocando , sonaba como BB king!! a los 14 años tambien.
Incredible!
Wish we could’ve heard some.
Can the songs be heard anywhere?
Someone put a link somewhere in the comments of the original video…I believe…

Amazing !!!
Love it love it, Stevie Ray Vaughn the GOAT no question. you were so blessed to witness it first han
I can't be the only one who thought he was going to actually PLAY IT!!!

@@LoneStarPlate Nice
@@LoneStarPlate Very cool! Thanks ✌
Incredible!!!
I knew Stevie played with cast of thousands...I didnt know Earl Ball did!...amazing!
Incredible story!
What’s great is to Stephen …SRV is just Stevie Vaughan, he wasn’t known as Stevie Ray yet as he would become…I love that 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Loved the story AND the addendum!!!!
Glad you liked it!

Thanks for your addition!
You are a legend.
