I Remember...The Year That Stevie Died....He Kept Saying That "It Would Be A Shame If Our Next Show My Last Show I Ever Get To Do & I Don't Give It My Best".....I Didn't See Stevies' Last Show But I Saw Him Shortly Before That....I Can ASSURE Him....He Disappointed NO ONE!!!!!
NO ONE Was Ever Like STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN! There Will Never Be Anyone Like Him Again!! HIS Playing, His Writing, & His Voice Were Expressions Of Exactly Who He Was....Only I Don't Agree With His Self Assessment - He DID Play With FINNESS....AND Like He Was Breaking Out Of Jail! He Expressed It All! He Was Open, Vulnerable, Honest, Available & So Passionate! I Feel Blessed To Have Been Touched By Such An Amazing Artist, And Such A Beautiful Man! GOD BLESS🙏YOU, STEVIE! SOUL💞SOUL💗😘
Jimmy did a great job accepting SRV award for HOF I live in CLE and have been there many times and still cry when I see any of his memorabilia. Theres a hell of a band in Heaven
Simply the BEST. No other way to say it. To my fellow guitar players, do yourself a favor and don't aspire to be as good as him. Aspire to be as good as YOU. RIP Mr. Vaughan. He taught me so much.
🔥🎸If anyone has earned and deserves his place as a true Legend in music history, it is SRV. A kind and humble soul with a heart of gold🧡, Stevie said his talent was "a gift from God I work hard to repay." Paid in full, Stevie. Paid in Full 💯 never forgotten. always missed.
Stevie is right up there with Jimi Hendrix, Duane Allman, ZZ Top and Johnny Winters. You can tell when somebody has fallen asleep with a guitar in their hands a few times, like Stevie probably did. I see it a lot now when I watch old vids of Jimi. Just the way that his hands hold the guitar, the familiarity.
Stevie Absolutely ADORED Jimi Hendrix! Like No One Else I Ever Heard Of!! He Knew Greg Allman, The Boys In ZZ, Since He Was A Kid, & Johnny Winter! The Coolest Thing About Stevie Is That He Appreciated EVERYBODY & Their Individual Style & Talent, & Just Loved Playing With Them ALL! He Never Saw Himself As Bigger Or Better Than ANYBODY - TRULY! That Is RARE & So Sincerely Stevie!
@@maureendrozda9960 Sound like you knew him? I met a lot of "stars" in the '60s music scene and they were just regular folks. Met Jimi, Janis, Ray Manzarek of the Doors and so many others in Cleveland and at the Grande Ballroom in Detroit. Some of the best were self-conscious and didn't think they were very good. Bob Dylan was one, Linda Rondstadt thought adoring fans were talking in the front row about how bad she was. I must have seen 500 bands in the '60s/'70s, maybe a thousand IDK. I live for music.
Yes, it was!!! He's in my top 5 list of the greatest guitarists of all time!!! 1. Eddie Van Halen, 2. Stevie Ray Vaughan, 3. Angus Young, 4.Jeff Beck, 5. Joe Satriani!!!
will never comprehend how he pulled out of such a horrific addiction. There's a video of him playing the Star Spangled Banner with a slide at a baseball game opener years before he cleaned up & it's just frightening to watch. He & Ed Van Halen managed to overcome their demons...how, I'll never know.
I do. I play along with his songs as if we where playing together. And sometimes I see him smiling at me as if he's training me for a show. Thank you stevie. For everything
Excellent video. Thank you! I'm a drummer in an SRV tribute band in Japan. I'm American and the bassist and guitarist are both Japanese. We're probably the best SRV tribute band in Japan. I also own a blues venue in Gifu City, Japan. Blues music is alive and kicking here. It's super fun to play Stevie's music live. Our guitarist uses the exact same guitars and amps too. Sometimes when I'm onstage, I feel like Stevie is there with us. His spirit is. We turn on a lot of people to his music. Especially the younger crowd. But that's the point of our tribute band. Sharing the music and inspiring other people. This video inspires me to continue what I'm doing with my friends, living life by the drop. Thank you!
Stevie was just incredible! he was the best guitar player I ever heard or saw. I was at his last venue at Alpine Valley I was blown away by all the incredible talent I saw that night but Stevie stole the show he was a lightning rod. I cried like a baby the next day I got the news he died. RIP SRV
Srv was the goat in my opinion!! He took Hendrix music and perfected it. Never heard anyone play live with so much soul!! He will always be the greatest in my opinion.
wow !... a lot of things I did not know about Stevie and his story until seeing this documentary/video, .. but he was definitely the reason I got into the blues.... RIP Stevie
I was in Alpine Valley Wisconsin that night. Driving back home to Chicago we were blasting SRV all the way back. It wasn’t until the next morning we heard the news that would change my life forever. I have the ghost of that night’s performance. I wish I could share it with all true fans.
Riviera Paradise, Leave My Little Girl Alone. He did a killer rendition of Mary Had a Little Lamb at a performance on 7-3-88; the footage is on TH-cam and blew me away.
Only just saw this one and had to share my story here. In 1983 , at a good friends urging , we went to see some “ Blues guitar playing guy “ at SanDiego State’s Montezuma Hall , and that was my introduction to SRV. To say I was floored would be a giant understatement. He played so ferocious & fluidly all at the same time & in the course of about 20 minutes I had worked my way to the front of the stage to witness what my 23 year old mind just couldn’t believe I was seeing & hearing. Local Radio here in San Diego was only just starting to play some of his songs and he was almost unheard of here . That Quickly changed . It’s really Sad that I only saw him play live in person that one time, but I have been a life long fan ever since , and was heartbroken when hearing of his sudden & tragic death in 1990. May his legacy & music live on forever, and thank you for sharing this slice of his history. 😎👍
Stevie had a killer band. Listen to how tight they played on the Arc Angels record too or how amazing his drummer is on the first Kenny Wayne Sheppard one although I don`t think he got credit except as a drum advisor or some such. And remember...the bass player was at Woodstock with Johnny Winter. As a drummer, musician, performer, and singer, Stevie Ray Vaughan and his band and friends taught me so much that I still apply when I perform. I met Stevie and Jimmie in Dallas after hearing Stevie on the radio there while visiting in 1984. My sister was married to a neighbor of his from Oak Cliff and when I freaked out over how amazing, uplifting and unusual the song was I had heard they took me to meet him at a Jimmie Vaughan show. I honestly had no idea that I had met two legends.
I had just installed a new sound system in my truck in 85, when I got a new job up in Illinois, at Clinton Power Plant. It was second shift, ended at 1am, so we went to the impound lake to drink beer and listen to music. I had the latest Johnny Winter album, and a new-to-me album by Gregg Allman. Another guy showed up with Texas Flood, and a 15" speaker pushing a bunch more watts than my unit. I was blown away by both.
That Texas Flood album just floored me. I still remember the first time I heard Love Struck Baby on the radio. I went right out and bought the album. I was a SRV lifer from that day on. Thanks for watching and your comment!
I saw him with a couple friends at Val du Lakes near Silver Lake Michigan about 2 weeks before he died…we worked our way down to right in front of the stage it was one of the most amazing concerts I’ve ever been to….one of the guys I was with was named Steve Horowski and he was a natural blues player also….I never saw him read a note of music…it all just came natural to him…and he was amazingly good as well…live on Stevie Ray
I had the good fortune to grow up in central Texas, moving from the ranch I grew up on west of Travis County into Austin proper around 1981. Austin was a special place back then. I got to see SRV a few times, I liked hanging out at Antone's. SRVs music really changed the way I feel about electric blues and as a guitar player, I realize just how truly gifted he was... Thanks for the brief trip back to a very crazy but fantastic time in my life, RD!
SRV came out at a time when new wave and hair bands were prominent. There were many impressive guitarist at that time. These days there are these really overly technical players like Joe Bonnamassa, and others. No doubt those guys are impressive and nothing to ignore, but here was an x factor that SRV had that I don't know how to define. I saw him live twice. At the expense of sounding overdramatic, both times man, it was like there was something in the air. His presence, tone, and the way he would bend those strings. There was a feel that he had that just flooded the atmosphere. Technique and shredding is so impressive and great, but that xfactor. Whatever that was. SRV had it. I sure miss that guy.
oh yeah man! im so happy to see this one! thank you doc i really wish i could explain more about why i love double trouble but it would expose to many personal facts about my life but i will say this i got to meet and hang out and you hit the nail on the head stevie was amazing and humble he had the strongest hands i have met when he shook your hand you knew he was a guitar player he loved jimi but he knew jimi was jimi and he was stevie ray i guess the best way i can put it was stevie understood the fight jimi went through for his fame my 2 favorite songs is life by the drop and tinpan ally doc thank you so much for this one
River Docs i could say more than you want to hear!! you are talking about my stomping grounds!! Stevie was absolutely" PHENOMENONAL"!!! seen him many times--New Years Eve Houston TEXAS 1985--the passion--Stevie and his guitar were one! my x-wife bless her heart "made" me buy Texas Flood! Are right enough---see River Docs you strummed a chord!! Thank You KIND SIR!!!😎✌
I always wondered what the relationship if any existed between SRV and Johnny Winter.Winter was my introduction to blues electric guitar until Vaughn showed up.Winter's playing slapped me in face but Vaughn's playing punched me in the face and knocked me out.
Stevie is unique and the heavy weight strings he used were so heavy the guitar necks would distort. Roy Buchanon was less known than Stevie but he is probably the guitarist who has as astonished me with the sounds he got out of his tele.
It was like he was always wired ,straight into that circle of energy , some may call the pocket,, when the hair on ya neck stands on ends, That tingle down the back, and everything just flows without even trying. some of ya'll know what I'm talking bought. I know you do Doc, It was so good to see him shining again after picking himself up from the bottom, and then, Like slap, he was gone, and we miss him much. Thanks R/D
YES HE WAS!✝️ AND HE KNEW IT, TOO!! STEVIE CARRIED THE LIGHT OF GOD & SHARED IT WITH EVERYONE!! Stevie KNEW That Not Only His Gifts & Talents Were For A Reason & That He Had Been RICHLY BLESSED - But That Even Thru His Lifelong Addictions & Struggle For His Very Life, He Did The LORDS' Work In Showing The Way For His Fellow Alcoholics & Addicts By Being An Example Of A True Miracle Of RECOVERY - Thru Doing The Hard WORK - & That Substances Do NOT Have To Rule & Overtake Your Life! There IS A Better Way!! Stevie Helped Save COUNTLESS Lives, Without Doubt, & GOD🙏BLESS HIM FOR IT!! I Told Stevie This Very Thing When I Saw Him Last @ His Final Show In Colorado - August 17, 1990....I Also Had Joined AA & 12- Step Recovery - Oddly - About The Same Time Stevie Had Back In Late 1986, So I Know How LONG The Journey & How HARD & LIFELONG The Work! I Was SO DAMN PROUD OF HIM!!! ROCK STARS Simply Weren't Talking About All Their Addictions & STUFF😳 - Let Alone On Stage In Concert😯 - Back In The Late 80's - It Just "Wasn't Done".....THEN Came Stevie Ray Vaughan!! God Love Him - He Was The Most REAL, Down To Earth Person - And The SWEETEST💗! Let Alone All That Natural Talent That Came Thru Him - Though He Worked Long & Hard To DEVELOP His Talent From A Very Early Age! He Was ALWAYS AMAZING To Hear Live - Especially After He & His WHOLE BAND - Chris, Tommy & Reese Got Sober - The Music Was Already Great - Then They Got Even BETTER!! And Stevie Had Been REBORN! You Could Tell He Was More PRESENT & Relaxed On Stage & Really Enjoying Playing Again - He LOVED People (In Fact, I Don't Doubt That He Misses Everybody!) & He Treated His Audiences Like Family! ➡️Check Out Stevie Telling His Own Addiction & Recovery Story, In His Own Words - In His AA Share From New Year's Day, 1990 - Available On TH-cam - It Was Recorded TO Be SHARED & Hopefully Help Someone Else Somewhere...Stevies' Heart Knew No Boundaries!! His Spirit & Energy Were Infectious & I Miss Him Terribly Still Today!! He Had A Sound & A Gift Like No One Else - He Was A Limited Edition...I Am Just Glad I Was There! His Music Did Have A Very Sexy, Erotic, & Also A Painful & Urgent Quality To It - Especially That Last Year...I Truly Believe That Stevie KNEW He Was Going Back Home Soon!😭 Still Loving & Missing You, Stevie! Soul💞Soul - Always!💗😘

What is your favorite SRV song? Mine has to be Love Struck Baby. If U enjoyed this video try this one I did on Johnny Winter. th-cam.com/video/hWg9yy5Z2Lg/w-d-xo.html
Great player and those who despised his style of playing or put it down, dont do so because they want you to think that they know, "real", blues jazz. They do because they can't and never will be able to play like that. He changed the way music was played so he's a pioneer. The haters are complete fools.
That Strat once belonged to Christopher Cross. Search Otis Gibbs on TH-cam and it will pop up. Wife #1 began life in whole different world. RIP SRV, the best i ever seen.
Great video except for the part where you talk about the band members not make any Tommy Shannon had already made it I would say he played for what three guitar players in his whole career Johnny Winter and Stevie Ray Vaughan and jimi, enough said 😊
I miss SRV to this day.
Same here!!
How I cried that day.
I Remember...The Year That Stevie Died....He Kept Saying That "It Would Be A Shame If Our Next Show My Last Show I Ever Get To Do & I Don't Give It My Best".....I Didn't See Stevies' Last Show But I Saw Him Shortly Before That....I Can ASSURE Him....He Disappointed NO ONE!!!!!

Cherish Them! You Are Fortunate!

I like “Riviera Paradise” a lot. Also “Texas Flood.”
⬆↗➡The Sky Is Crying and or Texas Flood‼‼
Life Without You.
"Walking the tight rope" and "Life by the drop" RiP SRV. I love that dude!!! 🤘🔥🔥🔥🙏
Life Without You, and Riviera Paradise. pretty much any song he plays can bring me to tears. the man was special.
At the time the "Texas Flood" sessions almost got scrapped on the advise of a couple of local L.A. producers.
no one held a Guitar that was better than steve in my eyes and ears
My ex co-worker I don't know his family member or relative used to be a guitar tech of Stevie Ray Vaughan
Stevie looks like his mom Jimmie looks like the old man
Hey Tommy Shannon deserved to be in Hall of fame with Steve or with out Steve
So as Randy Jo Hobs
Thank xou for video
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Great player and those who despised his style of playing or put it down, dont do so because they want you to think that they know, "real", blues jazz. They do because they can't and never will be able to play like that. He changed the way music was played so he's a pioneer. The haters are complete fools.
Jimi hendrix, Stevie Ray vaughan, Eddie Van Halen readjusted guitar playing
In a recorded interview he said his major influence was DENNY FREEMAN
Tommy Shannon was hall of fame stuff also.
Thank God I got to see him the year we lost this genius.
Best concert I was ever a part of.
That Strat once belonged to Christopher Cross. Search Otis Gibbs on TH-cam and it will pop up. Wife #1 began life in whole different world. RIP SRV, the best i ever seen.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊
Great video except for the part where you talk about the band members not make any Tommy Shannon had already made it I would say he played for what three guitar players in his whole career Johnny Winter and Stevie Ray Vaughan and jimi, enough said 😊
