    I’m glad that you mentioned that he didn’t even have to think about it because Eric Clapton said the same thing. Clapton said sometimes when he’s playing (Eric)he’s thinking of what he’s going to play next and sometimes comes up blank but that Stevie was an open channel and it just flowed through him, and that he never had to think what he was gonna play next.

    There will never be another SRV. It's such a loss to music that he left the world so soon.
    He is proof that most people have the ability to learn to play a musical instrument. Then there are those that have a natural gift that no amount of lessons can compete with.
    I hope his song Pride and Joy is on your list.
    It's a favorite of mine, although it's somewhat tainted ever since it was used in a Criminal Minds episode(a great series).😂

    Stevie always played by feel in the moment making every version of his songs the same but different. His brother Jimmy was once asked by an interviewer "Does Stevie ever play a song the same way twice?", to which Jimmy quickly quipped, " Hell, Stevie never plays a song the same way ONCE!" 😁 Epic.
    Also ..you mentioned how can he write that stuff down? Stevie could neither read nor write music. It was all by ear & feel.

Then toward the last 30 mins he stopped and said, Got a special guest sittin in the Audience , Mr. Greg Allman, come on up! He got on stage and they jammed and played a couple of songs. And brought the house down!!! You knew you just witnessed something Historic.

    The Jimi Hendrix and Jimmie Vaughan wah wah pedal story was many years before Jimmie was with the Thunderbirds---just to clarify things. As to Stevie, he was simply the greatest guitar player of all-time. By the way, he was playing behind the back with 13's on the high E string. There were few guitarists who could play Stevie's guitar, even from the front, because they didn't have Stevie's hand and forearm strength. Looking forward to your exploration of SRV next month.

    When Stevie Ray first came on the scene, the blues genre was dying. Nobody was buying those records or listening to those musicians till Stevie Ray started playing the blues. By inviting the old time blues musicians on stage with him, they were able to rescue the genre and it gained an entirely new audience. Make sure you react to his compilations with the old blues stars, such as BB King, Johnny Copeland, Albert King just to name a few. He also played with Jeff Healey on a couple of songs. He wasn't an old blues star but another outstanding guitarist with some major handicaps he had to overcome. They say Stevie was the most kind hearted man.

    Great reaction guys. I saw him in and around the Detroit area including the same tour as this, at a place called Saint Andrews Hall. Play basically the same set, but he didn't play the songs the same, and that was one of the beauties of him was that you never heard the same version of a song Twice. There is a video from 1986 I believe from Daytona Beach that has the songs love-struck baby and rude mood same video and it was the first tour he did clean and sober after having real struggles with alcohol and drugs. A lot of people were worried, as was he, that he wouldn't be as good or creative without the substances that he was using. In fact, he was better, and in that performance The Joy on his face oh, you just know that this is a man who was happy to be alive and happy to still be able to do the thing you love most in the world. Stevie Ray Vaughan is my number one and always will be, I had the opportunity to see him live in a number of different settings, from small venues all the way up to full stadium events.

    You mentioned his freedom when he plays, you are spot on. He never played a song the same way twice. Each event was its own version. This set at El Macambo is considered one of the greatest live performances ever, though some songs played there, I prefer versions played elsewhere. He felt like fans deserved a unique show, not the same one over and over.

    The only thing I can think of as to why Stevie Ray's incredible talent is super uncanny is that right after his mother gave birth to him, his dad must have stuck a teeny guitar in his tiny hands and the rest is history. SRV was truly blessed with this gift. He was a natural! I love his entire get-up, his voice, nice hands, the way he held his guitar, but more importantly, I love his confidence. It's not the puffed-up kind but the humble kind. He's a super-hero and a musical genius, and a generous, humble man! With all due respect, I don't agree with the 9.7 rating, I give him a 10-star rating across the board! So sad he was taken so soon by that unfortunate helicopter accident.

    Thanks, gentlemen. Highly enjoyable.
    Thanks for listening to your viewers.
    Thanks to all of Stevie's so cool fans for not dropping any spoilers about that behind-the-back-spin, because it's fun to watch the looks of disbelief.
    I'm now subbed w/the notifications bell lit, so i'll be tuning in more often - Wednesdays, especially.
    Thanks, above all, to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble.
    SRV, RIP.
    💙 💙 💙

    I've known at least 10 guys from Texas that can play like that over the past 60 years....but nobody on the east and west coast likes to admit it. Rock and Roll was invented in Texas, baby...all the way back from big band of Glenn Miller to Buddy Holly and on up....like Johnny Winter. Southern Delta blues and Texas Rockabilly mixed and every pop, rock and blues band in the world have them to thank.

    I was born in The Hill Country of Texas in 81, I distinctly remember the rains he talks about. We don't get them anymore but we still have SRV

    Bluesy you guys are funny! Albert King would never play with anyone else until he meant Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy still gets choked up when talking about SRV and BB King called him an open channel to the blues. Clapton readily admits he doesn't hold a candle to SRV. SRV was the first one with the guts to play Voodoo Chile live - it was his way to reach out to Jimi.

    Watch all of the El Mocambo. It's unreal! It's so cool seeing someone see him go behind the back for the first time. He would also take off his hat and put it on the mic to go behind his head.

    SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness
    Stevie was self-taught and couldn't read music, so he would freestyle every song. In fact, he never played a song the same way twice. He was truly a gift from the Heavens!

    You can thank me later, Gents. 😉😄

    The pedal: Jimmie Vaughan’s high school band The Chessmen opened for Hendrix at Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth. Hendrix borrowed Jimmie Vaughan’s pedal because his was broken, and he broke Vaughan’s too. So Hendrix gave his broken pedal to Jimmie Vaughan, who fixed it and gave it to his little brother Stevie because he knew how much he admired Hendrix’s playing. I was lucky and got to see the Vaughan brothers play many times, together and with their respective bands, and Jimmie playing with Double Trouble and Stevie playing with the Thunderbirds, and Jimmie and Stevie playing on the same double-necked guitar. Fabulous Thunderbirds opened for ZZ TOP and The Rolling Stones at The Cotton Bowl in Dallas on Halloween 1981, which was the first time I saw either brother. I was 16 years old. They made a record together which was released right after Stevie died. “Long Way From Home” or “Telephone Song”, please!

    I'm of the opinion that he was an open "Channel" that tapped into something truly magical thru the Guitar. Others like him were "Hendrix" "Albert Collins" and possibly "Jeff Beck" . There are guitarists who are able to tap into that open path" to something truly other worldly... When you get round to your SRV reviews, pls consider "Lenny" from the El Mocambo show, as well as "Third Stone From the Sun" from the same El Mocambo Show.. I had the pleasure of seeing him in person in 1985 @ the Tower Theatre in Philadelphia PA.. 2nd row .. changed my life .. RIP Stevie
