The way we, today, play a Stevie Ray Vaughan tune, trying to sound as close as we can to him, is exactly what he was doing to sound like Albert. The cycle goes on✨
Closing my eyes….it’s like having a spiritual experience - the “all in” mentality. I’m giving it my all. Does his singing compliment his playing or does his playing compliment his singing. A back and forth serenade.
SRV is a musical ability freak of nature. Only he can cover so many of the legends songs and not only do a good job, he actually adds an intensity to pretty much any iconic song he does. The guitarist in the devils band in hell may be Steve Vai, but Stevie Ray is the lead guitarist in God's band in heaven. He is like higher deity musician. When your playing makes Clapton pull over his car the first time he hears it because he can't believe what he hears and that someone is that fuckin good, and that he knew whoever it is was much better than him.... And people always referred to Clapton as "God", but yet thier god worships another... That really says something.
MR. DICKENS. #1 HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT MR .ERIC CLAPTON. HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT DERECK . TRUCKS ? STEVE VAI.. OH I FORGOT. JAMES MARSHALL HENDRIX! REAVLIUATE.
I saw Albert live back in '68-'70 at the Fillmore West in SF maybe ten times as either second or opening the bill there, Bill Graham booked him pretty often back then. Agree strongly with the comment downthread about Albert's double bends being incredible, and SRV absolutely NAILS him, IMHO, having seen Albert do them live! L' homage!
Anything that that slides out of Stevie Ray Vaughans lips is golden..and from his guitar cords and strings..sensational to the EARS..you with me? Performance is upward and beyond .
Stevie Ray wouldnt have known how to play this kind of guitar without Albert King and Jimi. Im glad he didnt quit until he learned the blues. Now they are playing in the next world. May they RIP
yeah it's that classic Albert King lick. Albert did it so easily because his guitar had the treble e on top, meaning that when he fretted it, his finger would naturally rest on the b string too, so it'd be easy to bend them at the same time. Such a awesome sound though
When I was a teenager I wanted to be like him so much that I put .13's on my Strat and literally bowed the neck! Got it fixed and after that just played .11's in standard tuning.
swee abn it’s not that hard to find just do what I do, take a super reverb put on eight find a really good Strat with a 59 style neck pick up a little bit reverb and bingo Bango you’re there
I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I cut your wood so easy for you, You can't help but say, "Hot Dog!" Some call me Woodcutting Sam, Some call me Woodcutting Jim. The last girl I cut wood for, She wants me back again. I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I cut your wood so easy for you, You can't help but say, "Hot Dog!" I got a double-bladed axe That really cuts good. Well, I'm a crosscut saw, Gonna bury me in your wood.

I agree buddy.I been to Joe,s generic bar in Austin,TX.Went there all because of Stevie.A guy by the name Mike James back here got his voodoo guitar power.They gave it to the wrong guy ,it's the same name but my lastname is Fetsko.I seen him break a sting and not miss a note.ALL TRUE!
Check out John Hammond Jr;'s version, from the late 60s. Atlantic Records, I have the single!!!, somewhere. B side, Brown Eyed Hansome Man. Funkier, more "chunka, chunka".
Glad I ran across this one. I don't know what the hell he's talkin about but I really don't care. Probably some weird sexual inuendo which is fine by me cause it's Stevie. 😍Love this, it's so cool. Anyone care to explain it to this dummy? 🙄 thankX ElmoLewiss. ☮️to all.
We all hear things in different ways. When I hear Albert's version it sounds hollow, and like it was recorded in my friends basement. Stevie with all his fret beating and lazy strumming sounds full, and more like how a crosscut saw sounds. One cannot deny the licks Stevie took from Albert, but I think in the end Albert gave them eagerly. Cheers
I agree. Albert King's style of blues was so much more relaxed and just flowed out. This seems more pushed. Don't get me wrong, I like all the Blues players in their own right and different flavours but Stevie Ray and Gary Moore in particular have a style that is too much like showing off for my tastes. I'm trying to learn some Albert King style licks at the moment, it's not as easy as it looks.
Stevie's double stops are just disgusting....so much life on that vibrato, my God, it's beautiful.

The method, but not the level
That vibrato while bending gives me the chills.
Turn it up folks, Stevie Ray fully firing on all cylinders.
Cheers from Wild West Oz.
🍻🦘🇦🇺😎👍
ive never heard stevie play this one, he fucking nailed it!!
Those Albert King style double string bends sound amazing on the middle strat pickup😍
too bad it ain't a telecaster
@@JamesSpeiser ??? Why would you want it to be a telecaster?
Thanks for the tone tip!

The one and only.

I agree....all his covers were the best when you think of the ones he did..

Great tune....that sound and tone SRV has...omg..
Bring it home ❤
He’s my G.O.A.T❤️🎸🎩🎸❤️
I think it's one of the best crosscut saw covers I've ever heard. I don't think Stevie woulda argued with you.
Stevie Ray wouldnt have known how to play this kind of guitar without Albert King and Jimi. Im glad he didnt quit until he learned the blues. Now they are playing in the next world. May they RIP
Stevie Ray is the guitar God period.
never heard this by Stevie before, I had the albert king cd with this on it. This is golden, thanks for putting it up
Early years ❤
This is why the In Session Album happened!!
He blows my mind. Love you always Stevie! Thank you for posting!
Amazing and thank you for sharing. I never heard this song before.SRV is GOAT
2:19 soul just ooooozing out of that Strat. ;)

Crosscut saw .never quit
Just keep the Blues going 💙
Get it done men !!!
More please!!
awesome tone to die for
12 gauge, good luck:), i prefer 0:8-9. ultra light, tube lamp amp or something. switch position (fender type: up (right handed).

swee abn sounds like a silicon fuzz face or some solid state amp (maybe a backup?) about to blow up
Master learn and play!!
You have to be a crosscut saw in this world..
Enjoy you all!!!
1:38 NASTY!!!
He should've put this tune, and tin pan alley on Texas Flood.
My favorite unrecorded SRV track by far!! Crosscut Saw. 🔥🔥🔥 #VelvetBulldozer #SRVIsLife
The guitar tone of the gods
Auditory ambrosia
GOOD LORD MAN

Bends And slides!!

Smokin'
sweet lord thats the stuff, thanks man!!
GOAT
So raw superb
Have fun !!
for anyone wondering, I'm pretty sure this is at Fitzgerald's Houston Texas, in 1981
I was operating a crosscut saw in a cabinet shop the day/minute/instant that I found out SRV died, sorrow and blues.
And coke or whiskey couldn't stop that
Albert and Stevie are in my top ten guitar players. Stevie could sound just like Albert king if he wanted to. This is an example of that.
Great video
Just having fun playing the blues 💙
Damn!!!
Thanks!
Raw as a motherf#$&er, really cool
he could make a strat sound real nice
Thanks man. Not much of this cover out there. no video I can find.
I agree buddy.I been to Joe,s generic bar in Austin,TX.Went there all because of Stevie.A guy by the name Mike James back here got his voodoo guitar power.They gave it to the wrong guy ,it's the same name but my lastname is Fetsko.I seen him break a sting and not miss a note.ALL TRUE!
My Altecs are loving this
Enjoy
Wow--I had thought Albert's version was best--but Stevie takes it to a whole new level!
0:24 Cheers!! yeeeehaaaa
Practice Practice
...

Buenisimo SRV CROSSCUT BLUES
Gonna drag you cross my lawn....
Texas FKN Blues

That guitar just got pregnant
i love the part at like 2:04 when someone in the crowd whistles and its like right on pitch.
gimme a hot dog and a side of cole-slaw
Why is it the good die young
stevie rocks irish band achilles do a excellent version cross cut saw

@ElmoLewiss where do I buy it please?
Check out John Hammond Jr;'s version, from the late 60s. Atlantic Records, I have the single!!!, somewhere. B side, Brown Eyed Hansome Man. Funkier, more "chunka, chunka".
Your invited if you love freedom ❤❤😊
F
2:18
@JSCPYLON Just you personal opinion...isn't it?
19 tone deaf idiots not liking this great tune. Stevie Ray rules.
Wonder why some people think this bad is it how he speaks or the fact it’s not as refined?
One string sounds like a whole chord.
Ya but 2 strings broke them all...
Glad I ran across this one. I don't know what the hell he's talkin about but I really don't care. Probably some weird sexual inuendo which is fine by me cause it's Stevie. 😍Love this, it's so cool. Anyone care to explain it to this dummy? 🙄 thankX ElmoLewiss. ☮️to all.
try copying THAT! ahaha

Try again
Woah i hope that guitar was over 18.
Goat version
Este tipo era bueno, pero cuando tocaba temas de otros, por lo general se los cargaba.
Man, he was loud! Check this out: -9ePM0b5iJQ (video id) It's Evan Johns doing cross-cut saw. Raw and tasty.
Can we have the thumbs down removed for God's sake?
Stevie's got Albert King's licks and feel down pat, but the band ain't keepin' up.
chris layton and tommy shannon aint keeping up? youre crazy man
Sister Rosetta Tharpe would have ripped all these so-called gods a new chord.

She was good but not this great.
@@pkspeat yeah right...
Hey guys, check out Antar Blue's lick of Crosscut......awesome.
Sorry.....Guys.....Albert's version is still the best to me. This version sounds crude and butcherd
