No one can play like this in a year....
So true not even playing every day. Self taught at age 7 and the guitar never left his arms. Fell asleep with it and played in his sleep as well. He totally was absorbed by the guitar and the guitar was consumed by him.🎸🎶💙
I've heard some ridiculous comments on TH-cam. But this 1 takes the cake. After a year you are still figuring out the basics. Stopped listening immediately after that comment.
@@markmartin6365 If you've never played guitar you've got no point of reference. I wouldn't hold it against them. The point is they're enjoying an appreciating the music and musicianship.
There's one that could play like that at all, and he put the work in.
no way....but if you have ability....you get addicted to it...
People could practice for a lifetime and never play like that. Dude was all guitar, all the time. He LIVED the blues. That guitar was a spiritual experience for him - and for us in the audience.
What's even more amazing is Stevie Ray was self taught and could not read music and yet became one of the greatest guitar players in the world
I love both your names are Tom!! But just wanted to say EXACTLY!! Yo both your comments. Stevie,even TODAY, would be considered light years ahead of his Time. Much like Eddie Van Halen was.
Multiple lifetimes
@@Dxbroth Best response I think I’ve ever seen!! There’s so much you can say about This genius, guitar God, of a man. And just 2 words summed up, like I said best response ever!!
> People could practice for a lifetime and never play like that
People do practice a lifetime and don't get even close to this. Even most well known guitar players don't get close to SRV.
Stevie started playin when he was 7. And you better believe SRV is one of THEE GOATS!!
Jimi, Eric, Buddy, Johnny, and Jeff. A few of the only guys in his league. Oh, and maybe the great Leslie West of "Mountain".
For me srv is number one
@@saorsa5 Me too. Just naming some other great players. The guy in "Govt. Mule" is insane too....forget his name.
I admire his dedication to his craft. He knew guitars very well. A master no doubt. 👍👍
I think he’s the best but he was friend of mine from high school!!
Love to see younger people appreciating Stevie Ray great reaction.
It takes a life time to play like this, every day 24/7. Most professional guitar players can't do this.
I got to see SRV 9 times (once in the front row!). He played like that EVERY time. His soul was music.
I'm truly jealous. I'm 37 years old and I would have loved to have seen SRV in person
You got lucky. Grats. I lived in Austin in the early 80s till 87 and got to see so many great bands. I saw Stevie upwards of 50 or so times, about 20 in clubs. Saw the Live Alive recordings at the Austin Opera House, pretty sure that's me whooping at one point. Saw him and Jimmy at Antones when it was on Lamar and Guadalupe. They came in lit, about closing time, and anyone who wanted to stay was allowed. They locked the doors and the house band and the Vaughan brothers played till dawn. Probably the best time I ever had. Dude was humble af and a happy guy all around.
I've been playing Texas blues 35 years still trying to catch up to this cat. No one can touch him, the best by miles in my opinion
Most people could play guitar for 1000 years and never be as good as SRV. PERIOD!!!!!!
Stevie Ray Vaughan was special. I've been playing guitar for 20 years and can't get anywhere near to how he plays this song. Some people are naturally gifted on top of working to perfect their craft. It's a disgusting level of talent.
Ppl have tried to play this song since it came out in the early eighties. No one has come close to capturing it just like Stevie. Pure passion, aggression, sorrow, and love all in one intense outpour of emotion. SRV was incredible
Bb king said he was the best guitar player ever because he was the blues ther will never be a northern like him and that says ano
A lot if bb said it
Stevie didn't play guitar, he was actually possessed by it and the guitar played him
I love how in most of these reactions you hear "I've never seen/heard anything like". They are all correct. SRV was special. He was a gift. The greatest to ever do it.
And that is how a genuine master does it🎸🎶💯💙. Stevie Ray's mainstream career only spanned around 8 years in the eighties cut short by a tragic helicopter crash😔 in 1990. He still has millions of fans globally and thanks to TH-cam reactors has been gaining millions of new fans.
You have so much to look forward to from him I sure hope you keep going. To learn a lot more about the man and his music check out his original composition "Life Without You" as performed at the Capitol Theatre 1985. It is dedicated to his good friend Charley Wirz, a Dalllas Guitar shop owner that passed away suddenly. It is full of even more surprises and is a fan favorite.
Great reactions guys🙌👏👌‼️
The absolute GOAT of Texas Blues! RIP SRV!
Fantastic review!!!!! I subbed hoping for more of my all time favorite!!! I agree w Harriet Miller. Try out Life Without You live from The Capitol Theater. It’s great!!!
The GOAT RIP Steave
My guy!!❤There is so much I want to tell you about my pal, Stevie. He was self taught, never learned to read or write music (though he wrote songs), struggled with drugs and alcohol from a young age, got clean and sober in 1990, was even better than before, then was killed in a helicopter crash after a show that left the guitar Gods of that time floored by his performance. He was the kindest, most gentle human, and as humble as he was talented. Our last words to each other were “love yous.” Keep going with Stevie! Here’s a performance of a Jimi Hendrix song from Stevie and his band Double Trouble shortly before his passing. Put on your seatbelts!
th-cam.com/video/cFwTbsKkqxE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=8mC_gmjG7vxyOyeb
Actually, Stevie kicked his cocaine and alcohol addiction in the latter part of '86.
@@alanberg5575 you are so right! Don’t know what I did there. Brain glitch! Thanks for the correction. I’m so happy for this wonderful attention and love he is getting! Take care. Donna❤️
@@Donnagilbert6497 Hey, no problem, Donna. You nailed the rest of it!! By the way, I'm rather envious that you knew Stevie personally. God bless you!!
@@alanberg5575 I was very lucky to have a connection with him. We had very little time to get to really know each other well, but I’m grateful for the time we had.❤️
More fun facts: By age 9 he was playing electric guitar. Aged 11 he started performing with his first band. By mid teens he was gigging professionally.
First... You have to be a born prodigy. Then years exploring the possibilities.
The greatest guitar player ever!
It's a very deep rabbit hole listening to Stevie Ray Vaughan. I suggest you guys just keep going as it gets even better. More tricks, more talent, more range... He is one of the best guitar players ever to walk the earth, and without a doubt the best blues guitar player. This was the end of the "Disco" era and SRV and Double Trouble brought the blues back. By the way, he couldn't read or write music, he just could play. suggestions for more SRV.. Live without You, Riviera Paradise, So Excited, Scuttle Buttn, Little Wing, Look at Little Sister, Tin Pan Alley... You can find multiple versions of these songs on here but stay with the live as much as you can. The man was an incredible showman. I grew up in Houston, TX and saw him live here and several times while at UT in Austin. You just can't imagine how loud that guitar was in person. He also had the best band and one fantastic keyboard player (Reese Wynans) who is still playing today. Enjoy enjoy enjoy... Love the 3 of you reacting and discussion.
Correct on all points. Saw him once live after his sobering and he was a beast. Fantastic human being too.
You could stay right in El Mocambo and check out Little Wing, Lenny and many others.
@@JayLandon64 I also think Stevie's performance live in Tokyo really shows how intense & focused as one with his guitar in his playing which came deep down from the soul. While showing the struggles he lived & dealt with in life to create the energy vibe in his music he gave to the world. Just saying... +Peace & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul My Friends+ 🤘😜🤘
💙💙💙💙💙… Stevie Ray Vaughan brought me here…🔥🔥🔥 Lovely reaction! Subscribed!
Play like THAT in a year!? I hardly think so.
Lol. Thought the same thing. Not 1% ever get to the level of Stevie Ray
1 year???? More like 1 century! This man was born with a guitar in his hands. Put some respeck on his name
He didn't go from learning to mastery in a year, it took a lot longer. But composing that piece didn't take him long to put that together.
No one has been able to play like Stevie in a lifetime except Stevie. The GOAT!
SRV is the GOAT of the blues guitar. No one then or now has the talent SRV had just in his pinky finger. The man wasn't human.
Man I love the blues and SRV is the gold standard❤
SRV=GOAT....speed, accuracy, flow, feel, pure talent, channeling soul through the guitar....humble and kind man as well....the world was a better place with SRV...performed like this multiple times a week for hours and hours all unbelievable and never they same way twice...just pure raw talent...other greats have said they felt like beginners on stage with SRV because it just came so easy to him whereas they had to put more effort in to sound as good
A year??😂😂😂😂this GREATEST of all time,no one is like SRV
He was one of the best to ever walk the planet
So enjoy seeing the newer generations appreciating (perhaps even falling in love with!) Stevie Ray...I'm a Gen-X woman in Seattle who was lucky enough to see him live when I was 15, too young to really appreciate him at the time...he passed away in that helicopter crash less than a year later. Still getting chills from his music 35 years later...pay it forward y'all ❤
SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness
For the next two in the holy trinity of SRV vids:
**Life Without You at Capitol Theater**
**Voodoo Child at Austin City Limits 1989**
Love your goatest comment on just about every srv reaction brilliant mate 👍
@saorsa5 Thank you for the compliment, my friend. Stevie was an otherworldly talent, so I'm just trying to let the younger generation know how truly special he was.
He was a natural. B.B King said he must of been born black twice.
STEVIE!! He was a phenomenon. A force of nature in blues guitar!
One year??? Pffft! You higher than Stevie was if you believe that. (I saw him sober rt before he died & he tore a hole in the sky with his guitar 🎸 that night.) RIP Guitar God. One of few true Masters.
Truly a legend that is greatly missed. I have played at the El Mo about 8 years ago and yep it is hot on stage. It's a small venue in downtown Toronto that holds 500 to 600 people max, and the house lights are very low, almost blinding you. What a treat it was to have him give one of his greatest performances ever!
" I felt like I didn't belong to that. That felt like an intimate moment between just him and his guitar."...... Best reaction quote ever,! 😁
He is the greatest of all time 🎉.
SRV was and still is the greatest guitarist ever. Born and raised here in Dallas, Texas, SRV was our own and we take great pride and in claiming him as ours. Have missed him everyday since that horrible day in 1990 when SRV was tragically killed in a helicopter crash in Wisconsin. . SRV started playing the guitar when he was around 7 years old and around the age of 12 years old, he walked up to a stage where Blues Legend Albert King was playing and asked, can I play with you, which no one ever did that. SRV created his own genre, Texas Blues, which is more in your face, nasty, note bending, aggressive playing unlike the regular blues aka Chicago blues where you play a note and then sing a little for a bar or 2 then play another couple of notes...One side note...Hendrix was the innovator...SRV is the Master...One last side note...SRV played by ear only. Could not read music...SRV played size 12 strings, which are basically bass guitar strings. A normal guitar has size 6 strings. He truly was a God send from God Himself. Closest thing to SRV...Kenny Wayne Shepherd. If you ever wanna talk SRV, im here. I'll talk SRV 24 - 7 with y'all
I can tell you that I used to watch SRV in bars around Dallas when he was a TEEN and not even old enough to be in the bars. When you can play at this level; it's literally part of your DNA. You couldn't accomplish this in a year if you played every day unless you are one of the few with this embedded in your DNA. His brother Jimmy is a musician. A good one even but even he will tell you that this ain't normal and everyone cant do it even with practice. Some people attribute ot to fineness but SRV said he doesn't play with fineness. He said "I play like I'm breaking out of jail". Lol
Take 15 years? Take a year?! Do you know he was the greatest guitar slinger in history? An absolute legend, where you knew his name before ever hearing anything by him? I would say it takes a big boost from God to even think about playing like that, a rare heart and soul, then focused practice and real experience on the road. He met and was friends with many greats, picking up skills in his travels playing bars and clubs and such.
But that was your impression after seeing him for only a minute. I imagine you will be changing that estimate soon enough. Although when I saw Stevie live I new in 10 seconds I was in the presence of something extraordinary. And he kept it up for an hour and a half of mind blowing guitar magic.
Something I think about this particular song. He's sings 'Man it's about to drive poor Stevie Ray insane'. The guitar that follows is supposed to be what his mind feels like as he's losing it. And when the guitar is behind his back it's like he's in mental handcuffs, or trying to get out of a mental straight jacket. Then his problem is solved, he knows what to do, he's leaving her, and with no guitar between him and the microphone it's like he's extra in your face when he says he's leaving. This is more than a song, it's like theater, except the agony and turmoil is expressed with relentless rapid fire notes and special effect guitar sounds full of anger and frustration. This is why Stevie Ray Vaughan was next level. His ability to play, but also his ability to express intense emotion. And his face, ha, he's living the anguish of his imagined predicament with all the phone lines down.
I miss him terribly. I would see him every time he came to NYC, if I could get tickets. I saw him 7 times. I would always bring a date because half the fun of SRV was watching another person's mind get blown. These reactions are that fun again, on a small scale. SRV! The GOAT!
You nailed it, brother!!
He played for the love of music.
He felt every note, in his soul.
There's a whole bunch of live performances that Stevie did that's worth watching. One really impressive one is where he and his older brother Jimmy Vaughn (of The Fabulous Thunderbirds) are playing the instrumental tune PIPELINE together at the same time..... on the same guitar. 😁
Truly a kind and spiritual dude, led many to sobriety...and the greatest blues/rock player of all time.
It’s called SRV reached Nirvana when he mastered the skill of playing just as good behind his back. His talent was God given.
This is what I grew up with!!! This is music!!! Puts all ALL ALL current music talent to shame!!! No beats, no bars, no auto tune, no computer boards, no dancers.
ANYTHING SRV plays live is awesome! His singing and playing in Tin pan Alley with Jonny copland or Living without you, in NJ really shows of his singing skills
Stevie played from the soul. I saw him play live twice and he was amazing.
I had the same reaction as you the first time I seen this...I said this is to sacred for public viewing 😅 it feels like a wreckless train ride he's taking us through but he gets all to our destination...still blows me away❤ great reaction!
Stevie Ray, Texas Flood, live at El Mocambo..... GOAT live electric blues guitar performance ever caught on video.
And Chris (drums) and Tommy (bass), just laying down a groove in the road that will never lead you astray, takes you to the promised land everytime...
And, no, sorry man, but nobody could learn to play and sound like this in a years. I think Stevie was 30 something this video, and he'd been playing since he was a kid. I've been playing for decades, and maybe I can string together a few bits, maybe a couple of bars that come close. I live in the ATX area, and frankly there are some kids who have only been playing 10 or so years who can come much closer than me, so I'm not claiming to be a great player like this. John Mayer has done it from time to time, but not like this performance, this is the best of Stevie in my opinion.
I don't think there's anyone else who could hold it together at that level for a whole performance like Stevie, from the first down beat, to his last drop of sweat.
And these reactions, priceless, the smiles, the stank faces, amazed and perplexed looks on their faces, and then there's more...there's always more.... just when you think he's given you everything, there's more...
he is the GOAT
I had a guitar teacher tell me that if I quit my job, lived under a bridge, and played 8 hours a day every day for 2 years that I could sound pretty close to SRV. At that time I had been playing for about 12 years. Why I had to live under a bridge, I have no clue, but that was about 25 years ago and I don't sound anything like SRV today. This man had a very special gift that not everyone can acquire. That's why he's recognized by many as the G.O.A.T.
I used to see SRV and Double Trouble play every year at the pier in NYC. Always amazing and always had great warm ups. When I moved to Chicago, I got tickets, so my X could experience his show, but he died in a helicopter crash on the way from Wisconsin. 🚁😪
Such skills.
"Check out his vocals on "Ain't Gone 'n' Give Up On Love," his aggression on "Leave My Girl Alone" (Austin '89), his humanity on "Life Without You" (Capitol Theater), his smooth moves on "Look At Little Sister" (Austin '89), his absolute joy + speed on "Lovestruck Baby" / "Rude Mood" (Daytona Beach), and his grace and exquisite composition on "Riviera Paradise." He was truly one with his guitar. Such a legend, lost at just age 35 in a tragic helicopter crash following a concert in August 1990.
You can teach someone to play a guitar, even play well but, you can't teach greatness it's talent and mad skills.
at one point the one young lady said,"that was iconic."no truer words have ever been spoken
I've been playing since I was 9 and I'm 21 now. I consider myself an advanced guitar player and yet with all the time I've put into playing guitar I don't think I'll ever be able to play like SRV. Some of his ability came from years of practice but I believe he was just born with immense talent. I'd suggest watching him play Little Wing at El Mocambo next.
I hgjly suggest Life Without You at the Capital Theater in Passaic NJ written by Stevie for his close friend Charlie Wirz who was a mentor to Stevie and they worked on guitars together. It's his best vocal great solo and a great message . It's my favorite.
I was (in school) in the concert, marching and jazz bands with saxophone and trumpet all the way from 1980-87. Then I heard SRV play "The Sky is crying", an Albert King cover and I haven't played either since. I got a stratocaster and been playing now for over 35 years.
Mindblowing , one of my fav songs , performances from him .. I think he is the best and maybe jimmi hendrix is a close second ... but what a tragedy when he died Rip Stevie Ray
SRV is a beast! How his guitar was tuned, the strings themselves are mostly custom(thicker gauge) and the action is high off the fret board. To play his music is truly a workout as a result. Knowing this now demonstrates how hard he plays!!
YOU HAVE TO HAVE TALEnT. This doesn't come naturally. PURE TALENT. Nobody compares to SR.
Stevie was a 1 of 1 - no one plays like this unless you born to play this way. The mold was definitely broken on his birthday 🐐🐐🐐
It takes a lot longer than a year, and it takes a lot more than just time. Everyone can improve over time, but not everybody can reach the levels that this man did. Very few can. He wasn’t playing the guitar, he was the guitar.
You kids should probably listen to Stevie’s “Riviera Paradise” he considered it his best work!
A year are you for real
Yee ta dee.short bus😂
It flows out from the heart and to fingers to the fretboard and then you have to find your voice.
I usually don't comment - SRV had a talent that is difficult to duplicate. Born and raised in Texas, he and his brother were masters of the guitar, but he outshined his brother. There are few who could play in a lifetime like this - it is a gift. He died in 1990 - he was also influenced by Jimi Hendrix and even mimics some moves of Hendrix in some of his music. Two Hendrix pieces that he plays to perfection are Vodoo Child and Little Wing. Very few people can play behind their backs let alone forward as masterful as he did. He was on a totally different level. He also played with unusually thick strings that are difficult to play on.
Great reaction. SRV from Dallas, TX. RIP Stevie.
Thanks, Kids - (please know that I don't mean to be condescending by calling you "kids" - I'm 63 yrs. old, and it's just how I have come to address people younger than I..lol) SRV was, indeed "the GOAT" with blues guitar (and vocals).. I really enjoy seeing younger people "discover" him.. gone too soon! I appreciate all of your reactions! (p.s. what about that "stank face" and that crazy fashion style?) I hope you listen to more by SRV!.. also, I deliberately didn't bother to mention the "behind the back"... I am writing this before I see your reactions to that... lol
Yeah, I had to hold off on that one too behind the back❤😂🎉
PLEASE young people, bring rock music back!
Check out Band Maid. Start with Domination live. Made me cry. It’s hard rock but I didn’t realize how much I missed it until I heard them. They are great.
I hope same.👍
Glad to see young people seeing and recognizing real talent. And as others have said, there is no way anyone is going to be this good after a year of practice! Stevie used extremely heavy strings to get that sound, which means you have to press really hard to get clear notes. As a result he would regularly rip off his fingertips - so he'd krazy glue them back on to keep playing!
And...he did it FLAWLESSLY.
Rest in peace SRV. The world is a lesser place without you.
It took his entire life, there aint no "1 year" and play like this. He is a Grand Master, knowledgeable in all things blues, could play you this song in 6 different and distinct blues styles and make it look effortless. That expression is often referred to as "Stank face", and you won't catch Stevie without it when he is jamming. Young pink lady said a mouthful when she calls out his endurance. The strings he played on were essentially the heaviest available practically playable strings, and he tears into them like they talked bad about his Meemaw. Want to go ahead and give props to the band, they murdered the fuck out of it, left no fuck unmurdered.
SRV is one of the all time greatest guitarist. He is sweating because he liked to play the heaviest gushers guitar strings available. His hand strength was absolutely incredible. RIP tragically lost in a helicopter crash at 35 years old in 1990
People who play for their entire lives still cannot play like this. It is a true gift from god. I really believe he was blessed with more musical ability than any normal human. Him and Hendrix and honestly from different worlds.
His style of Blues is referred to 'call and response'. Rest In Paradise Stevie
What's it take to be that good? A love and dedication to the instrument. Knowledge and love of the music and thousands of hours of practice
Stevie Ray Vaughan routinely had jam sessions with the likes of Albert King(lifelong friend) and BB King
All three are in the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame and considered the hallmark standard
The three gentlemen were your favorite guitar players favorites
B.B.King called him the greatest blues guitarist he'd ever seen.
There’s never been anyone before or since that could play/sound like Stevie Ray Vaughan….not Hendrix, not Clapton etc…. Nobody. SRV is greatest of all time.
No one can play like him, period.
Greatest guitar player that ever lived!
He was the greatest......rest in peace brother Stevie
Your comment that you felt like you shouldn't be seeing an intimate moment between SRV and his guitar was brilliant. I saw him play live twice, and I think we can share the same perspective: we were just blessed to see true greatness.
I saw SRV at Mesker Park Amphitheater Evansville Indiana before the accident.
Blew my metal Head away.
Then I saw the Grateful Dead 6/28/92 peaking at the Creek.
Good times
Stevie was one of a kind. We are blessed to have been here at the same time he was. Oddly enough, Stevie didn't start out singing. Their band had a singer who quit right before a show they were scheduled to play. They wondered who they were going to get to sing when Stevie offered to "give it a shot." He couldn't read music. Everything he played just poured out from his soul. What an amazing God given talent!
One of the nicest people I've ever met...
Great reaction, you three. Keep on r'actin .
My old man moment, this is back when you didnt have phones out in front of you the whole time during an epic performance. Granted, was born around this time, but got to enjoy the 90s as a kid! Stevie is a legend!
Watch him play, life without you, has a beautiful message too, gives you an insight to the person he was, he was the best yet humble. Anint gonna give up on love, shows his vocals, all his performances has something special
It’s great to see young people enjoying this giant. Your insights are excellent - for example the “intimate moment” comment. Nice job…
Can you guys react to Life Without You (Live at American Caravan) - by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Y'all should consider watching Jeff Healey and Stevie Ray Vaughan- "Look at Little Sister". Talk about someone who plays like Stevie Ray (as best he can ), but without a strap. Oh, and he's also blind. You will be as thrilled as you were watching this video. It's a performance of a lifetime. 👌💯💣💥
You literally just witnessed one of the guitar virtuoso’s and probably one of the top 10 guitarist to walk this particular planet
Stevie Ray Vaughan start playing guitar as a kid until the evening he passed away in the helicopter crash. He was a master of his profession.
On top of all that playing, he's playing on .13 Guage strings! That's like an acoustic guitar! 🤯
takes a lifetime to play like that!!!!!!!!!!
He had a God given talent. We were blessed to have him for the time we did.
There are others with the technical skills that Stevie had, but he never ran out of ideas. He could ad lib forever without ever repeating himself.
He's been playing seriously since he was about 7. RIP
SRV is the goat. Rip I love seeing young people experiencing a master of the Blues. Albert King said Stevie would mystifie guitarists for generations. Do yourself a favor and listen to tin pan alle.
Sam him live 3 times in the 80's and he was spectacular.a quiet humble man who had beaten drugs & alcohol.i think he was just reaching his peak when a helicopter crash took him. I cried like lost child when they announced his death.
This is just a little example of why SRV was, is and will always be NUMERO UNO bar none. RIP.
