    BB King said, I play Blues in sentences, but Stevie Ray Vaughan plays them in paragraphs. That's about the highest praise you can get there. Thanks for the reaction man. It was the correct one

    Stevie Ray Vaughan's whole life was the blues.He is in both the Blues Hall of Fame and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Blues is highly improvisational, and he never performed a song the same way twice. Neither he nor his band mates ever knew exactly what he was going to do when he walked out on that stage! A round of applause for his band Double Trouble. No easy task keeping up with SRV! 🎸

    Rest in Peace, Stevie Ray ~ died in a helicopter crash in heavy fog at Alpine Valley, Wisconsin just 40 minutes away from me. Couldn't get more tragic. His brother Jimmie found Steve's necklace at the crash site the next day. He will be forever missed, but we are so grateful that so much of his playing was recorded. You were the best, SRV.

      My sister is 1/2 hour from Alpine. Breaks our hearts to this day. I am a Louisiana native. My daughter was born on the first day of his last set, Aug 25. My niece on the day he died, Aug 27. He shares my father's birthday...and there's a lot more I could say on synchronicity...suffice it to say...SRV has meant something to me since I was a youngster. I was 14 when he died.

      @@xenoscoot That's pretty cool and special to be into the blues at 14. So you'll never think of your dad on his birthday without thinking of Stevie Ray also. Those dates you told me are Really something! It's a lot to take in. ✌️
      😥 EVERYBODY was greatly affected at the loss of Everyone on that helicopter, but I think it hits home more when you were a Wisconsinite, And you didn't live that far from Alpine Valley on top of it.
      Having seen the Dead there countless times, it's a very familiar place. We lost Stevie Ray in August of '89, and I lost my mother to cancer in October '89. She was 63 and I was 33. They all died too young. It must have been so devastating for Jimmie Vaughn, and think of it! Jimmie could just as easily been on that helicopter with his brother! What an awful thought. Heaven has one helluva band growing on the Other Side. 🎸😇🤺

    You already checked out "Voodoo Chile" - which was a cover of a Jimi Hendrix song. He also did a cover of Stevie Won'der's "Superstition" that was so great that Stevie Wonder himself sang "Amazing Grace" at SRV's funeral. Check out "Little Wings" (all instrumental). And then also check at the live version of "Look at Little Sister" with Jeff Healey (another GOAT, who was actually blind). All of this will blow you mind. This is the blues at it's best.

    • @GinMae

      YES - Laurie - "Look at Little Sister" - two videos - the version where keyboardist Reese Wynans is featured - and the Jeff Healey collaboration - hard to decide which I love the most!

    It’s like he channels something from the universe into the guitar.
    Imagine Leo Fender’s feeling on seeing and hearing what guys like Stevie can do with a Stratocaster.

      Leo Fender couldn't even play an instrument . He invented the solid body electric guitar as we know it . ( Hint- SRV plays Fender Stratocasters )

      Correct.
      Arguably more importantly he created the first solid body electric bass, the Precision.
      Once bands were able to increase volume without worrying about drowning out an acoustic upright bass, amplification became a wild thing and the gates were open for rock music to really evolve.

    • @filianablanxart8305
      @filianablanxart8305 3 роки тому

      The real advantage - When you group was traveling to a gig in one car , it's easier to put a Precision in the trunk , than strap an Upright on the roof .

    His playing was beyond belief. He also had his strings so high off the deck. Even today some of the best guitar players cant play it. Also very thick strings, even had to superglue his finger tips back on.
