I saw him in concert shortly before we lost him. One of the greatest experiences in my life. It was self evident he is one of the if not the greatest guitarist of our time. A second gift he had was the time he set aside to interact with the crowd. Finally, his triumph over addiction is another of his great achievements and probably what he would consider his greatest! achievement. Pink, thanks for sharing 😉
Dwight Madden beautifully said. Thank you! I met him in 1987, and would visit with him after his shows in my part of the world. Almost didn’t make it backstage one night, but by the grace of God, I did. That was the last time I saw him. We spoke by phone 6 weeks before he died. He was a humble, gentle, loving soul, and so happy to finally be clean and sober. There will never be another like him.❤️ Donna
Your reactions are priceless, girl. Glad you liked it. Been a fan of his since he hit the big time in the 80's. Was a sad summer day when I heard that he'd died. We were at a swimming hole (with a tire swing) and car doors open when they announced it over the radio. R.I.P. Riviera Paradise is a great instrumental, and his version of The Sky is Crying is my favorite (love to sing it when performing out.) His "Live Alive" album is energy. Have fun!
There is nothing like music leaving you speechless.. When something moves you so much you just have to be quiet and reflect on what you just heard. I live for these moments …
I love how every initial reaction to srv is the same as mine.. he made the impossible look easy. He did what Hendrix did and took it a step further by Crossing genres and really having no limits as to what he’d touch musically. You just get taken back when you hear either of those to.
On the short list of best guitar players ever but he could also sing very well. And was an ever better human being. Very modest guy that overcame a lot. A very soulful person.
My favourite piece of music ever. I listened to it over and over the night he died crying like a baby for about 3 hours. I am still devastated to this day.
All SRV fans its easy to 1 up somebody after tsking his licks and practicing them for 20 years then add a couple of extra notes but even this version is all JIMI'S solos
before I watch I just wanna say glad you're back at it! your bright smile has a positive affect and always puts me in a better mood. plus Stevie was a true gift to us! not many artists have the skill and ability show us their soul, he did!
I grew up with SRV. (My Mamma's from Texas.) Every Saturday morning during high school it was my wake up call. For karate class. No, really. (Graduated HS in '95.) My mom had tickets for the concert he was to perform post helicopter ride... This is my favorite. I see you feel it too. So nice to be able to share it with someone else. :)
I along with a lot of other folks missed you so much!!!! Good to see your beautiful smile and hope you are doing well. Stevie Ray is just one of the best. Pick any song....
SRV Live at the El Mocambo is the best live music performance of its time and still holds today. Stevie and Double Trouble were on fire that night. The first minute alone with Testify will knock your freaking socks off 👍
If you have not listened to SRV Rivera Paradise please do. The story behind the song This is a soulful instrumental. After a full day of recording material for the album, Stevie asked his producer to leave the tape running and to turn down the lights. All alone, he recorded the guitar track on his Fender Strat. Double Trouble added the backing later, including an organ foundation from Reese Wynans. On the Austin City Limits performance, Stevie introduced this by saying it was "For all the hurting people in the world."
You are as beautiful as your taste in music young lady. Enjoy your videos and insight. Be blessed and I wish great things and happiness unto you and yours. Signed “Just an old Vet” ✌🏻 Btw, I was driving on a freeway in Southern California (while in the Navy) when I heard the news about Stevie and pulled over to shed tears as I had difficulty imagining a world without the sounds of SRV.
Saw the man at Towson state basketball court in the early 80s. Maybe 250 people were there, he was unknown. Texas flood was just released, I didn't know who he was. I was 20 feet from the stage, one of those life time moments. It must have been a shared emotional state as someone who went to Woodstock and had front row to hendrix star spangled banner. Wish everybody could have lived that. Keep rocking pink!
Same but in Amarillo Tx. 250 people maybe showed up. I went because he had just been named guitarist of the year by Guitar Magazine. Best Weds night of my life.
More SRV, less pinkmetalhead! Best blues player EVER! I saw him 6 times including his last show at Alpine Valley Wisconsin, and he was brilliant every single time. RIP to a legend.
No hate. Hendrix and SRV are actually quite different in their approach to playing. They're so different that I think comparisons of who is better than whom are nonsense. SRV was obviously a huge fan of Hendrix and it's great that he played the music for all of us. Not many can do it, at all.
Different styles. SRV was so tight, incredibly accurate, fast, on point, but with all the feeling. Hendrix was a creative genius, came up with amazing tunes, but was sadly often wasted on whatever, and not so disciplined. The world needs both...
@@Porsche996-t1y Exactly. We do need both. Arguing over who's the greatest of all is nonsense. Al DiMeola is the greatest at what he does, Jimmy Page is the greatest at what he does. Gilmour is the greatest at what he does, and so on. Guitar playing is very personal. SRV obviously liked some of Hendrix's compositions and plays them the way he likes. SRV was an amazing technician of precise playing. So is Gilmour. Then go back and watch Hendrix's or Kath's total domination of the guitar. Hendrix sounded the way he did because that's what he wanted to sound like. The same with all the others. Comparing these guitarists makes about as much sense as comparing people's faces. Listen to each one and learn.
@@PhillipLandmeier you could, arguably, say that SRV is the better player. I think you have to say that Jimi is the better composer. I feel the same way about Jimmy Page. You might be able to find someone who can play Zep as well or better than Page, but you can't find someone else who can write those songs.
You are so respectful when reviewing such a virtuouso.Not constantly pausing but truly appreciating the art of a master.SRV was truly one of the greats and the fact that you recognize that says something about your soul.ps.you have a beautiful smile too.keep it up sweetie😁
I love Stevie Ray Vaughan's instrumentals. He was great! Welcome BACK!!! I hope all is well! I've been listening to Dave Grohl's Play every day or so. I'm amazed at this instrumental. The video for it is pretty awesome too!
You're back!! I've a request... Could you listen to Vanden Plas and their song Beyond Daylight, please? They are a German progressive metal band that blew my mind when I first was shown them, they still do. It's criminal how many people don't know them! Honestly I'm just hoping people can read this comment and just check them out. They deserve more attention.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a caliber of guitarists in line with Steve Vai, Randy Rhodes and Ty Tabor (of King's X) that have transcended being masters of their instruments and became ONE WITH their instruments. Absolute raw emotion pours from their fingers. Guitarists like that are very few and far between.
It's Great to see your Smile Lighting Up TH-cam again! And since you're back how about reacting to some Scorpions? Great German Rock band w/ Power Ballads and Heavy Riffs! You'll Totally Dig them! Peace Your Pinkness!
It's funny that you realized that about his hands! Stevie Ray Vaughan had hands that were so powerful that the steel strings on his guitar were 14-gauge and he still broke them. He could manhandle a six string and make it do anything he wanted it to.
Stevie was his own class of musician. His recordings keep a little bit of heaven on earth after his passing. I highly recommend you listen to the studio version of Robin Trower's Too Rolling Stoned as well :)
Stevie set the standard for covering Jimi. If you know a bunch of Hendrix tunes, you'll always hear pieces of other songs in there. Honestly though, for me, I'd suggest that you get a listen to "Life By the Drop." It's a simple 12-bar blues done solely on an acoustic 12-string guitar as the last song on his posthumous album, "The Sky is Crying," which is compromised of a bunch of songs that never made it into his first four studio albums. I'll pick that song any day, because it's sad, simple and sweet, and really the perfect last thing to hear from a guy who could tear it up, but was ultimately just a guy who loved and played the Blues. I sit back sometimes when I hear his music and can't fathom that he's been gone for 27 years.
So many wonder why he's considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time... this, Voodoo Child, Tin Pan Alley, Couldn't Stand the Weather, Texas Flood, Cold Shot, Little Sister, and so many more songs in his catalogue to choose from to find out. Love your reactions!
Little Wing is my favorite SRV song, second would be Texas Flood. It's sad that he got his life together, got clean from cocaine and alcohol, got married only to die in a freak helicopter crash
I’m glad you didn’t stop doing this over a few idiots.Of all the reaction” personalities” now, none get moved emotionally like you over great stuff. That’s what separates you from them.
sure its not ledbelly? hes an old bluesman from the 1920's they called him ledbelly cause he got stabbed in prison and lived then the gov. gave him a pardon for murder cause he sang and played guitar so well
SRV simply put was one of the top 5 guitar masters of all time. I've been a fan of his for over 30 years and I still am awed by some of his performances. If you think that one was amazing. Check out voodoo child live. Great to see you doing reactions again love the new intro. Keep up the great work.
Watching this version of little wing is almost a spiritual journey. Seeing his emotion and movements that he played with during it is so awesome. You don’t get to see such a performance like this much anymore.
All the Jimi bashing.....SRV has said many MANY times he's no where near Jimi's skill level......Jimi walked around every day with a guitar on him.....Do some research. I love SRV too BUT.....Jimi's in his own league. Listen to Machine Gun form band of Gypsies.........Nuff Said.
you have this fantasy about how great Jimi Hendrix really was....truth is he was part showman, part guitar player.....SRV is ALL guitar player....none of the lighting a fire on stage and worshipping it...don't get me wrong, Hendrix was a fine, fine guitar player, but SRV's talents surpass Jimi and I'm not bashing Jimi, I'm just calling it as I see it
Hey welcome back Pink Goddess, missed your radiant smile and those eyes, oh those eyes . Can't wait for more reactions from you. Try Couldn't Stand The Weather from the great SRV. Love that you're back.
PINK! Welcome back, Pink! I knew you wouldn't leave us! Because you're too /awesome/! Welcome home, my friend. So happy to have you here again! You know you're always welcome, right? Because you /are/! So glad to see you again! ^__^ You made my day!!
You seem to be a very nice young woman, I love watching people discover new things and your reaction to Stevie Ray ( one of my favs) was enjoyable. Peace.
I was raised on stevie ray and he has been my idol since I was 2 years old. I'll be 21 next month and this video really made me smile! I love you ❤ sending all the love
Hey Pink. Love your reactions - I’m a bit of a latecomer to them. I’ve seen a good few others, but your’s are special. “Breakdancing” - lol 😊😄😊. He’s brushing his hands and fingers over the strings, just barely touching them. This stops them vibrating and sounding the core note, and leaves just the harmonics, the internal vibrations of the strings themselves. You get different harmonics depending on where you touch them. But he does it so quickly and casually, bearing in mind that you have to be very precise. He’s amazing.
You are so observant ! The first comment about his hands immediately made me respect your opinion. His hands, and the sounds he could produce from them ,were from his guitar set up ,super high action , the thickest strings possible . Another fantastic v interpretation of this amazing Jimi Hendrix composition is on the album Layla , Eric and Duane playing at their best
Ya gotta love SRV. One of my math teachers in high school was at the famous El Mocambo gig in 1983 and got one of Stevie's picks, which he showed us in class one day. Usually when they show footage of SRV in documentaries and stuff it's usually from that show as it was professionally filmed.

God wanted guitar lessons....so he brought Stevie Ray home......
That was beautiful.
GOD: "Everyone get to the chopper!"
I hate it when people compare Stevie Ray to God, I mean, he's great and everything, but he ain't no Stevie Ray!
What a beautiful sentiment.
Sounds good. But god made SRV. SOOOOO. AH NO!!
I saw him in concert shortly before we lost him. One of the greatest experiences in my life. It was self evident he is one of the if not the greatest guitarist of our time. A second gift he had was the time he set aside to interact with the crowd.

That performance is just stunning. Smooth AF. You also MUST see the mind-blowing "Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood (from Live at the El Mocambo)"
texas flood is one you should chk out next!..pure blues!
Hell yes. Texas Flood has a sweet guitar solo.
If you do it should be Texas flood Tokyo just saying
I'm partial to "Couldn't Stand the Weather"
Being a Texan, both songs hit close to home. Lol
Another Texas guitar slinger to pay attention to would be Willie Nelson and his guitar trigger no one plays music quite like he does
absolutely
There is nothing like music leaving you speechless.. When something moves you so much you just have to be quiet and reflect on what you just heard. I live for these moments …
SRV simply the best.
Anything from this concert is absolute gold. It was probably one of the most defining shows by a guitarist ever.
I love how every initial reaction to srv is the same as mine.. he made the impossible look easy. He did what Hendrix did and took it a step further by Crossing genres and really having no limits as to what he’d touch musically. You just get taken back when you hear either of those to.
Nothing better than looking at a beautiful lady and watching the greatest guitarist ever..!!!
Great performance! I always cry when I hear/watch him play, because he is just that good. His spirit lives on.
Little sister live is awesome. Hey breaks a string, keeps playing, switches guitars, and never misses a note. Just awesome.
One of the few who can cover Jimi and not embarrass themselves
Exactly
Steve Vai and Alan Holdsworth too
Stevie brings tears to the eyes, a whole lot of emotion vibing through the strings.
greatest guitarist to ever live imo
beautiful pink.....your reaction is clear. Stevie Ray Vaughn is and sadly was the best guitarist ever.he is missed.rip SRV
On the short list of best guitar players ever but he could also sing very well. And was an ever better human being. Very modest guy that overcame a lot. A very soulful person.
Abe Gibron totally agree. And I’ve said for many years that srv could be the most underrated blues vocalists.
He was the truth. He was the best ever
SRV Riviera Paradise. Its the most calming song you will hear.
Andy Guy CantYouLift I agree
ABSOLUTELY!!!
My favourite piece of music ever. I listened to it over and over the night he died crying like a baby for about 3 hours. I am still devastated to this day.
Right up there for sure.
Or Lenny
This is a performance that never gets old or ceases to amaze me as a guitarist. The nuance and fluidity SRV had remains unmatched.
Welcome back Beautiful, happy to see you again! Love to see that smile!
You just experienced the best blues you will ever see in you life. PERIOD!!!
The only artist to do a Hendrix tune better than Hendrix, SRV was an absolute beast....
And Jimi didn't write All Along the Watchtower but I bet you consider his version to be the best.
That's sacrilege to say that
Andrew k Adams
Not quite, SRV’s version of “Voodoo Chile” far outshines Hendrix’s version...
Charles Ewing Smith no shit Sherlock, you upset because Stevie could do it better than that shit guitarist that wrote it??? lmfao
All SRV fans its easy to 1 up somebody after tsking his licks and practicing them for 20 years then add a couple of extra notes but even this version is all JIMI'S solos
before I watch I just wanna say glad you're back at it! your bright smile has a positive affect and always puts me in a better mood. plus Stevie was a true gift to us! not many artists have the skill and ability show us their soul, he did!
I nammed one of my guitars "Lenny" because of SRV ! 🎸 He is just outstanding ! 💜
That's one of my favourite pieces of music from him. 🤘😝🤘
you can buy a #1 replica for like 50k$
I grew up with SRV. (My Mamma's from Texas.) Every Saturday morning during high school it was my wake up call. For karate class. No, really. (Graduated HS in '95.) My mom had tickets for the concert he was to perform post helicopter ride... This is my favorite. I see you feel it too. So nice to be able to share it with someone else. :)
You should check out Stevie Ray Vanghan and Albert King's Blues at Sunrise
I along with a lot of other folks missed you so much!!!! Good to see your beautiful smile and hope you are doing well. Stevie Ray is just one of the best. Pick any song....
I miss seeing your beautiful face. Love your reaction videos
great to have her back :)
I have never been able to figure out how he can play at triple the tempo of the bass and drums and make it work.....GENIUS !
HE'S A BEAST!!
Brother Vaughan was the best there ever was. I don't care how many times i hear this song it still runs me through every emotion i have. RIP SRV
The Devil met Stevie at the Crossroads, and sold his own soul to learn to play like that.
SRV gets soooooo much luv and rightly so BUT we GOT to give super props to his band...That drummer - that bass player....bad boys! bad bad boys!!!
So happy your back!!!!!!

So many chills I got taller and wider for a little while. I knew it was coming, but friggin hell, every single time. This!
welcome back! hope you are well
More SRV, less pinkmetalhead! Best blues player EVER! I saw him 6 times including his last show at Alpine Valley Wisconsin, and he was brilliant every single time. RIP to a legend.
Please, don't hate me but I think SRV plays Hendrix better than Hendrix, at times. Again, no hate or offense intended. Respect to Jimi!
No hate. Hendrix and SRV are actually quite different in their approach to playing. They're so different that I think comparisons of who is better than whom are nonsense. SRV was obviously a huge fan of Hendrix and it's great that he played the music for all of us. Not many can do it, at all.

Its a pleasure to see you pink😉
Colin Lavoie same to you!! Missed you guys 😭
As fast as he’s strumming and with heavy HEAVY strings! MONSTER
Welcome back Queen P. Missed you! The sun has risen once again 😍💖
You are so respectful when reviewing such a virtuouso.Not constantly pausing but truly appreciating the art of a master.SRV was truly one of the greats and the fact that you recognize that says something about your soul.ps.you have a beautiful smile too.keep it up sweetie😁
Yay!!! Pink is back!! Hope you are doing well!
Oh yea and i definitely prefer the Jimi Hendrix version!!
Thanks Shawn 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
I love Stevie Ray Vaughan's instrumentals. He was great!
Welcome BACK!!! I hope all is well!
I've been listening to Dave Grohl's Play every day or so. I'm amazed at this instrumental. The video for it is pretty awesome too!
You're back!!
I've a request... Could you listen to Vanden Plas and their song Beyond Daylight, please? They are a German progressive metal band that blew my mind when I first was shown them, they still do. It's criminal how many people don't know them!
Honestly I'm just hoping people can read this comment and just check them out. They deserve more attention.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a caliber of guitarists in line with Steve Vai, Randy Rhodes and Ty Tabor (of King's X) that have transcended being masters of their instruments and became ONE WITH their instruments. Absolute raw emotion pours from their fingers. Guitarists like that are very few and far between.
It's Great to see your Smile Lighting Up TH-cam again!
And since you're back how about reacting to some Scorpions?
Great German Rock band w/ Power Ballads and Heavy Riffs! You'll Totally Dig them! Peace Your Pinkness!
"We'll Burn the Sky" or "Sails of Charon". Musikladen versions
Guitar genius thats what I say.. OH AND YOUR HAIR LOOKS FANTASTIC!!!
It's funny that you realized that about his hands! Stevie Ray Vaughan had hands that were so powerful that the steel strings on his guitar were 14-gauge and he still broke them. He could manhandle a six string and make it do anything he wanted it to.
Stevie was his own class of musician. His recordings keep a little bit of heaven on earth after his passing. I highly recommend you listen to the studio version of Robin Trower's Too Rolling Stoned as well :)
I love stevie. Very hard to not cry knowing he died not more then 15 miles from me. One of the saddest days of my life. LEGENDARY GUITARIST
I, too, cried that day. Humanity lost an incredible blessing.
SRV was just on another level and live he was an absolute monster...p.s. great to have you back
Stevie set the standard for covering Jimi. If you know a bunch of Hendrix tunes, you'll always hear pieces of other songs in there. Honestly though, for me, I'd suggest that you get a listen to "Life By the Drop."

Only one word required to describe: GENIUS
If you do another SRV song you should definitely do Texas Flood!
So many wonder why he's considered one of the greatest guitarists of all time... this, Voodoo Child, Tin Pan Alley, Couldn't Stand the Weather, Texas Flood, Cold Shot, Little Sister, and so many more songs in his catalogue to choose from to find out. Love your reactions!
Yayy!!! You're back!!
My favorite guitarist and too me is his performance on the presidential inauguration ceremony live was amazing as are you
Welcome back!
big guy Thanks hun 🤘🏽🤘🏽🔥🔥
Pinkmetalhead and Stevie ray .. that just made my day.
Well what about reactioning to " jeff healy see the light " He is a blind guitarist
He was a fantastic guitarist. Unfortunately he passed away in 2008.
There’s a video of a Canadian TV show that SRV plays with Jeff Healy and it’s pure magic...
As the years go passing by"is a great Jeff healey song,you should check it out.
Help All Animals. Check out. Johnny Hiland. Legally Blind. Really Great Guitarist.
You need to see Jeff and Stevie playing together. It fantastic.
Welcome back! I'm glad you took what time you felt necessary and fear not if the need comes again. "Little Wing" is a nice re-entry, thank you!
Little Wing is my favorite SRV song, second would be Texas Flood. It's sad that he got his life together, got clean from cocaine and alcohol, got married only to die in a freak helicopter crash
SRV was a student and master of the guitar at the same time. FYI, your smile is infectious, so adorable.
I’m glad you didn’t stop doing this over a few idiots.Of all the reaction” personalities” now, none get moved emotionally like you over great stuff. That’s what separates you from them.
Thanks for that Danny!
Your face described what you couldn't express in words.
And that...is the power of music.
Jimi Hendrix Little Wing inspiration for Pearl Jam Yellow Ledbetter
Oooohhh, Yellow Ledbetter is a great song!
yes it is. Mike McCready said it was heavily inspired by it. one of my favorite songs of all time.
I used to think they were the same song when i was younger :D
sure its not ledbelly? hes an old bluesman from the 1920's they called him ledbelly cause he got stabbed in prison and lived then the gov. gave him a pardon for murder cause he sang and played guitar so well
Stevie Ray Vaughan was a Blues Rock Monster in his own league. Still love his sound and playing. RIP. Legends never die!!
Jesus I thought you quite welcome back nice intro too
You felt it, was positive to you, nothing else matters. Thanks for posting , was fun to watch you watch!
Was gonna suggest Pearl Jam's cover of Little Wing/ Maggot Brain
SRV simply put was one of the top 5 guitar masters of all time. I've been a fan of his for over 30 years and I still am awed by some of his performances. If you think that one was amazing. Check out voodoo child live.
Great to see you doing reactions again love the new intro. Keep up the great work.
Check out led zeppelin live your mind will be blown
Watching this version of little wing is almost a spiritual journey. Seeing his emotion and movements that he played with during it is so awesome. You don’t get to see such a performance like this much anymore.
All the Jimi bashing.....SRV has said many MANY times he's no where near Jimi's skill level......Jimi walked around every day with a guitar on him.....Do some research. I love SRV too BUT.....Jimi's in his own league. Listen to Machine Gun form band of Gypsies.........Nuff Said.
This sums it up though:

One of the few who can cover Jimi and not embarrass themselves
you have this fantasy about how great Jimi Hendrix really was....truth is he was part showman, part guitar player.....SRV is ALL guitar player....none of the lighting a fire on stage and worshipping it...don't get me wrong, Hendrix was a fine, fine guitar player, but SRV's talents surpass Jimi and I'm not bashing Jimi, I'm just calling it as I see it
I believe they were the guitar Picasso ‘s of their respective times here.
I’m just glad to have had the chance to hear them both.
Ya check out Robert Johnson if you like the Blue's. Check out what influenced both of them.
Hey welcome back Pink Goddess, missed your radiant smile and those eyes, oh those eyes . Can't wait for more reactions from you. Try Couldn't Stand The Weather from the great SRV. Love that you're back.
PINK! Welcome back, Pink! I knew you wouldn't leave us! Because you're too /awesome/! Welcome home, my friend. So happy to have you here again! You know you're always welcome, right? Because you /are/! So glad to see you again! ^__^ You made my day!!
Love yaaaa
All time bad ass! He was and still is the best. R.I.P Stevie 🙏
Your facial expressions say it all he is amazing
You seem to be a very nice young woman, I love watching people discover new things and your reaction to Stevie Ray ( one of my favs) was enjoyable. Peace.
Shit makes me cry, the passion, raw talent and the fact we lost him far too soon..
Glad you're back, sweetheart. Don't leave us again I will cry.
I was raised on stevie ray and he has been my idol since I was 2 years old. I'll be 21 next month and this video really made me smile! I love you ❤ sending all the love
Don't know what's more impressive your reaction, your taste in music, or your hair.... Damn I reckon girl u lookin good.
Guitar whit soul baby. 😉👌👍 Really nice and well done! Nicely chosen
Bring more,definitely!!! We appreciate it,for sure!
Man was OUT OF BOUNDS!!!!! AMAZING!!!

But he does it so quickly and casually, bearing in mind that you have to be very precise. He’s amazing.
Glad to see you back. You're a kind soul, woman, don't let nobody run you off again!
Thank u John! Def coming back with a stronger mindset. Glad to be back :)
You know when your bass player, who's played with you for years, looks at you in amazement, you are playing on another level
You are so observant ! The first comment about his hands immediately made me respect your opinion. His hands, and the sounds he could produce from them ,were from his guitar set up ,super high action , the thickest strings possible . Another fantastic v interpretation of this amazing Jimi Hendrix composition is on the album Layla , Eric and Duane playing at their best
Ya gotta love SRV. One of my math teachers in high school was at the famous El Mocambo gig in 1983 and got one of Stevie's picks, which he showed us in class one day. Usually when they show footage of SRV in documentaries and stuff it's usually from that show as it was professionally filmed.
