    I can never get enough of watching people react to SRV "Texas Flood" - especially for the moment when he plays the guitar behind his back. It never disappoints. I was fortunate enough to see SRV live a few times before he passed and let me tell you. You were either jamming out and dancing to him, or you were standing still, awestruck and paralyzed by the genius that you were witnessing. RIP SRV!

    You talked about his fingers having calluses lol and interesting enough, his calluses used to come off and Stevie would actually super glue them back on to finish the show. Also, Stevie gave that particular guitar a couple of names. He called it “Number One” (it was his favorite) and he also called it his “First Wife”. He said it didn’t scream at him, but instead screamed for him. 😂❤️😂❤️

      He also used a very heavy string gauge, making it even more punishing on his fingers. I once read Jon Mayer saying SRV was so hard to emulate not because he didn’t have the skill but because his fingers couldn’t take it.

    El Mocambo is a club in Toronto Canada. Stevie did this in 1983. According to his bassist Tommy Shannon's book this is his hottest performance ever taped. It also happened an hour after medical personnel roused Stevie from a cocaine induced coma with IV fluids and vitamins. Hence all the extra notes on this show, and the extra sweat.

    When I saw him in an itty bitty club in Ohio.... He literally CHANGED my entire perception of what a human being could do on guitar! And by this time, I'd either seen or worked back stage for BB King, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, etc. He could make them ALL look like they were standing still! I'm sure I'll take flak at some point for saying that.... BUT, if you saw him live, in PERSON, closer than this venue, you would understand how I can make that statement with total conviction! Simply, insanely GREAT all of you are enjoying him soooooo much!

    In the 90s I had " Live at the Elmocombo" on VHS and would play it for people to see the look of shock and awe on their faces! Especially at the end when he plays "third stone from the sun" and does things to his beloved "first wife"(a Fender Stratocaster with a 1962 neck,a 1963 body and 1959 pickups) that are illegal in 19 states! After watching this one time I knew I was watching one of, if not the greatest guitar player of all times and I've come to realize SRV is incomparable and is the top of the heap, the pinnacle. There are some that came close but Stevies dedication to his craft was second to none and it really shows in his live performances.
