@@rupe53 So what is your point? SRV wrote plenty of good songs himself. He also did not die of an overdose at 27. I loved Hendrix don't get me wrong. Jimi Played plenty of copy songs himself. All of the great musicians did.
@@rupe53 I think what the original poster was referring to was the proliferation in the 60s and 70s of local bands playing their hearts out. Whether they were trying to be the next big thing, be local celebs or just make a few dollars and meet girls, small guitar-led groups were everywhere. I was in a couple of them in my teens in the mid-60s. Most of us weren’t as talented as this young man, but our area of NE Ohio produced The Human Beinz (Nobody But Me) and Phil Kaeggy among others.
@@robertcampbell8027 ... we had similar, being within an hour of NYC. The Rascals and Mountain were semi local. Dave Brubeck and John Scofield actually lived in town. These days we have Keith Richards, Jose Feliciano locally. (Meatloaf just moved away) Ace Freely lived here for a few years too. It's amazing how many good bar bands we have these days... and some are VERY young. We're talking high school kids as Dead or Phish cover bands.
Wow, both Stevie Ray and Jimi would applaud this performance - what an extraordinary display of guitar mastery, and with the Voodoo Child performance, we all witnessed an emerging gift of being able to interpret the spirit of one of Jimi's most memorable compositions. May this young man's talent, and passion for inner expression through the guitar, continue to evolve.
@@BallistaBomber ... the production I saw was pretty decent, but more like when you see an "all star" type show with too many people on stage at the same time. At least I still have an ear to pick out the better players and they did eventually boil down a few songs to smaller groups, which were much better. That show was Jon Anderson doing Yes music, so some fairly complicated music. Took 2 guys to pull off "Clap" and they nailed it! (kinda like dueling banjos going back and forth)
I've been playing the electric blues harp for 30 years all over this planet. Keep swinging guys, keep swinging. The Blues never dies! You are a delight for an old man. Peace! from Dresden / Germany
In 1976 I was in a band at Jordan. Played bass. My first band. Glad to see it carried on. Real music, and this kid shreds it! We won the talent contest too. Beetdiggers rule!
@@robertstultz2260 oh for fuck sake...with out jimi hendrix SRV doesn't exist...SRV was a hendrix wanna be...and BTW jimis drug of choice was pot...you really are ignorant...
Very good.I like how he made it his own.Clapton said about Stevie that he was a faucet turned on,and it just flowed out.Thats how you do it boys.Anyone can imitate someone else,Make it your own and you'll go far.
I absolutely love it when the teenagers listen to and play their interpretation of iconic artists from my era. My 15 year old grandson plays some.great riffs of Hendrix, Yardbirds and Cream Clapton and Albert and Freddie King. He respects and loves all types of music and.styles. His dad bought him a 59 Les Paul Gold top and a 68 Strat and I would have given him my 70 Gibson 335 Sunburst Tobacco. or my SG if I still had it. Keep the blues alive!!!
Was thinking the same thing. Our attention is obviously drawn to the guitarist since it's two very well musicians known for their iconic playing. However, the drummer should not be overlooked! He was spot on as well.
It's been a minute....still SM0KIN ! Voo-Doo is one of my favorite tunes. I try to support EVERY musician & vocalist who takes on such a Great number from 2 of our GREATEST Performers......Stopped counting when I heard the 203 cover....Just one word: IMPRESSIVE!
I found this totally by random. This was one of my granddads favorite songs if not his favorite. He passed back in late January. Amazing performance, thank you.
Very very very well done I've played guitar for nearly 40yrs and these kids have tremendous opportunities waiting for them. ,,that is just the facts awesome very well the stevie and Jimmie would be very proud of these youngsters I guarantee that,
OUTSTANDING!!! Long Live your Rock N Roll band. I'd like to here some Robin Trower from this very talented trio. Jimmy and Stevie must be smiling looking down .
Awesome job guys, Stevie & Jimi would be proud... Just keep on rockin and make it your own. I met Stevie Ray Vaughan once in Vegas at a lil bar called the Hobb Knob, he was a real nice fella... Stay cool and Rock On Dudes... 😎
Holy mackerel! I hope they won! I’ve been playing for years and I can’t play anywhere near the level of that kid! Great band! Great job! Congratulations!!!
Nice one playing stevie makes a change to most kids playing all well known bands nice playing stevie would be proud as you well know brilliant guitarist nice hendrix nice to see you playing the greats keep it up 👍
I can relate. Played in a band while in high school In the mid 60's in louisville kentucky. The Daydreamers. Still playing. Hail Hail Rock And Roll. The big difference today. I play in church to serve Our Saviour. AMEN.
I like how this kid feels the music, I don’t think he is playing for the audience but for his soul and love for Music, as consequent people likes his music.
These fellas are GOOD !! 😃 It's fantastic that people of their generation are learning to become the great talented Artists that SRV and Jimi Hendrix were. These two young men are making Their mark in the world. More power to them Both ! They're Very Good. Great Tribute. 😀🌈👌
Went to Highschool with some very famous guys. It was crazy for some years. People come and go. God bless them for keeping us entertained. But rock an roll will never die. I think "the aliens" started it.
OH YEEEEEEEAH!! THIS TRIO HELLA-ROCKS!!! KEEP THE FIRES BURNING GUYS!! KEEP ON KICKIN' ASS & TAKING DOWN NAMES!! Very well done! You guys owned that stage!! Salutations & congratulations on pulling it off JUST LIKE THAT!!
Good job guys and good on the school staff as well. When we were this age doing this kind of stuff, those teacher's couldn't get us off the stage quick enough. They were SO tight assed. Good luck guys.
The kids is a fantastic player! Strange thing is this popped up in my feed out of the Blue, I love Hendrix and SRV, Clapton, Peter Green etc, (My Mum and Dad used to watch Clapton every Friday in London live and my mum saw Hendrix Before he became famous in London when he first came to England.) No way I wasn't going to like the Blues/Rock lol... Anyhow this kid is really good! School talent show, this performance just got wasted on the kids watching cos you could see the kids in the audience had no clue either what he was playing his ability or about "proper music" lol 😂🤣😎 Well played.. he won't be short of the girls that's for sure! Lol Cheers from London England 👍🎸😎🏴
God bless these youngsters for even knowing, and even considering learning, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix 👊🏻🤟!!!
Props! CRUSHINGLY PERFECT!!!
Why not study the best,so you can become the best.
God had nothing to do with this music. Remember rock and roll us the devils music.
God bless em!
@@stevensilverman4863 really? I thought the blues and gospel had a baby and called it rock and roll.. perhaps yin and yang
Legend has it the frontman knocked up 4 cheerleaders and 2 teachers that night 👏🏻 well done sir
Elvis Presley once said he became popular overnight when he performed at his high school talent show.
Hahahaha
At the same time, or in close rotation? 😎😎😎😎Rock and Roll will never die…
I heard one was your mom. now you call him Daddy!
And a couple of sexy grannies.🤣
This is amazing. What a tight band. This is what he 60's and 70's music scene was about. Well done kids.
only one problem... SRV didn't make a name for himself till the mid 80s... and that was playing Hendrix tunes that were already 20 years old.

Just casually a guitar GOD at a HIGH SCHOOOL!? Talent show - god damn dude, you are awsome.
Stevie and Jimi are proud
This kid is freaking 100% on target! Got the spirit, got the style, and making that electric guitar get people screaming! Yes!

Let's lay it down correctly, Jimi Hendrix wrote it, Stevie ray Vaughan pushed it along!!!!
@@davidfulford9493 go sit down
Actually an awesome cover of the song. No one probably actually knows what the hell it is, but mad props dog
Pride and joy with some other shit lmao
im sure at least the front rows knows
The young man put the joy in Pride and Joy. Very nice feel for putting his own attitude into classic rock lyrics. Easily pro level guitar work.
Awesome with the sauce
god damn... best high school talent show performance I've ever seen. how does this not have millions of views yet??
Because no one outside of Texas or the guitar community knows who Stevie ray vaughan is
@@jacobstrmiska7085 exactly
Let's keep it that way. Let's keep it as a little gem for us who know who SRV is!
I'm mexican and of course know who SRV was. He was a beast!!!
Must be a bad case of tin ears
"I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet...but your kids are gonna love it."
Funny!
I was thinking the same thing. Marvin Berry's about to call his brother on these guys.
Way to quote a movie called "Back to the future"!!!!
@@markwilmeth3082 never heard of it.
Awesome! This give me hope that today's youth still has rock and roll in their blood! Keep it up want to see you keep going!
next time you hear the School of Rock is in your area you should check it out. This is basically what they do and they are VERY good!
👊🏻🙏🏻

Go check out Band Maid. A girl band from Japan. It will blow your mind.
@@mojomanmurph1925 ... gotta say they are good at what they do and they are certainly high energy.

You are a delight for an old man.
Peace! from Dresden / Germany
Well Done Young Friends! SRV & Jimi Henix Two Of My All Time Faves!
In 1976 I was in a band at Jordan. Played bass. My first band. Glad to see it carried on. Real music, and this kid shreds it! We won the talent contest too. Beetdiggers rule!
You have to give to the young man if you got the balls to do a Stevie Ray song and do a descent job as he did he should have won!!! Good job 👍
the balls to do SRV??? SRV is simply a student to jimi hendrix
@@446hemi Jimi Hendrix was a damn acid head. His playing was terrible played out of tune and out of his mind!!! SRV twice as good!!!

@Dexter Moser Dexter I'm not sure that you know what tone means
soo damn good
Two great guitar legends in one show. Love it. Rock n roll will forever live on!! These three young men have amazing talent!!!
Keep doing what you're doing!!
He is definitely enjoying playing this...
Whoever introduced them to SRV.. you did a great job
Dad of course!
Awesome guys hope this is just your beginning to real rock blues music. Now you have to explain to class mates, what the heck your playing.

Extremely talented for high schoolers
Saw both SRV and Jimi live. This band was GOOD. Guitarist made their renditions his own and nailed it! Incredibly well done!
55yrs later the youngsters
Saw Jimi twice in San Diego. Never saw SRV unfortunately. Played in a band that did alot of SRV though.
Great ending, too. Loved that ovation. Pure joy.
I don't know why exactly, but this brought me to tears. So proud of those boys.
AMAZING JOB BY THIS SMALL BAND THE ONE'S ON THE GUITARS AND YOU CAN'T FORGET THE DRUMMER DID A GREAT JOB TOO....!!!
Was thinking the same thing. Our attention is obviously drawn to the guitarist since it's two very well musicians known for their iconic playing. However, the drummer should not be overlooked! He was spot on as well.
The drummer was excellent and so are the guitarist
Jacko from Sha Na Na would have loved this
The hair and the jacket
It's been a minute....still SM0KIN !

Here before this vid blows up
I found this totally by random. This was one of my granddads favorite songs if not his favorite. He passed back in late January. Amazing performance, thank you.
ME 2, TOTAlly at random

Great job! America used to have night clubs that played local talent from east coast to west. Half the country is starving for live local music imho.
crazy work!!! sheeshhh,,
I'm glad to see that at least some of our youth knows what good music is.
Very very very well done I've played guitar for nearly 40yrs and these kids have tremendous opportunities waiting for them. ,,that is just the facts awesome very well the stevie and Jimmie would be very proud of these youngsters I guarantee that,

Wow! This young man is a natural. Great job! 💚 🎸
You 3 bad asses sounded great!! The fact you are al high school students is even better. One of the best high school performances I have ever seen.
They could not pick better musical heroes to emulate. 2 of the best blues guitarists out there. Well done!
Great to see the heavy support from the audience. Obviously the band killed it, great group of kids at that school!
Yo this is really really good and a hell of a groove at that age rock on 🤘🏽

In the mid 60's in louisville kentucky. The Daydreamers. Still playing. Hail Hail Rock And Roll.
The big difference today. I play in church to serve Our
Saviour. AMEN.
The whole band is spot on. The guitarist is a gifted musician and a natural performer. He didn’t learn that stage presence, that comes from within.
Whats the two song called? I couldn't hear what he said the name was
@@Itszoeeeeeeeeee Stevie Ray Vaughan- Pride and Joy
Jimi Hendrix- Voodoo child
I like how this kid feels the music, I don’t think he is playing for the audience but for his soul and love for Music, as consequent people likes his music.
OUTSTANDING!!!! Are these guys the rebirth of ROCK???
Wow these kids are amazing i was shocked when he started singing and nailed it ! I hope they keep rocking

Fantastic job by these high school musicians. Glad to see them do a great job with great music.

Was in England in 1967 till 1970
Guitar player is in heaven! Girls screaming for him...the best. These kids did a fantastic job!
Great job to all 3 of you from Texas.

That drummer though!! Most excellent on the part of all three!
Damn, there is still hope out there for rock! You kids keep it up...
When he actually started playing the song the audience was just like "oh its blues." Still a very good cover tho
Stevie and Jimmy would be proud !
For sure
OMG! I am in AWE of this young talent! He is killing it! Way to go! Plus, I'm jealous....
