    You should know that Stevie Ray Vaughan personally went to see Jimi's father and requested his permission to cover Jimi's songs. He not only approved, he actually gifted him with Jimi's pedal. Stevie Ray used it while performing this song. Stevie Ray could've had his manager call and request permission, but Stevie Ray Vaughan was all about class and respect. Stevie taught himself how to play and he could not read music. He's a demi god here in Texas. 🤠 🎸

    I had the rare pleasure of a by chance meeting with Chris Layton in Los Angeles as we were staying at the same hotel. We had coffee together and he was extraordinarily humble guy. I asked him if I could ask him about Stevie Ray knowing he must get asked constantly. He said absolutely and that he never gets tired of talking about his old friend. I simply asked him what kind of guy he was. He paused for a moment and then said that he was legitimately the sweetest person ever and would help anybody. Nuff said as I figured that would be the answer. How extremely satisfying to know he was genuinely a wonderful man. Something that is a rare thing today.

    SRV is unsurpassable. His cover is a huge tribute to Jimmy Hendrix, another very incredible talent. This said, SRV plays with his eyes closed almost the entire time. It took SRV countless hours to create this amazing arrangement. As a fan, all I can do is appreciate and enjoy this masterpiece of a song and the talent of both SRV and Jimmy Hendrix. How fortunate we are to have witnessed them both.

    Your comment that “this could not have been written down” was very accurate; SRV could not read music. He learned by playing by ear, which is how he learned to play in the first place. It was said he never played a song exactly the same twice, but as you can imagine any improvisation by this man was always brilliant. I envy the rabbit hole you’ve just begun exploring, and hope you enjoy his many works as we who’ve grown to appreciate SRV all have. I have listened to this song perhaps 200 times and never tire of it, because watching a true genius do what the were born to do is never old. One more thing to notice: you will seldom if ever see him watch his placement of his left hand on the strings-most often he plays his songs with his eyes closed the entire time. So I doubt if he were blind it would make a difference- God put him on earth to play guitar, and thankfully for us he found his calling.

      Jimi and SRV approached the instrument very differently, different eras , but two titans, for sure. That said, there are too many metrics, genres, to name a greatest guitarist. If no horns, vocals, keyboard drowning him out, Terry Kath in ‘68-70 is up there. Seeing Danny Gatton play up close, he could humble absolutely anyone else jamming w/ him, including Hendrix, who is so vastly over rated; JH couldn’t play fingerstyle, hybrid pick, slide, tap, and his repertoire was too narrow to place him on a pedestal above others.

      If you actually follow Stevie and have any first-hand knowledge of the fretboard you’d know that your comment about never playing a song the same way twice is off base. Every studio song he played live duplicated the recorded solos and fills with near perfection - so much more difficult than improvising at his level of playing.

    SRV couldn't read music at all. All of his songs are great. Lenny is a song her wrote for his wife and it's also what he called his guitar.

    Loved this so much, y'all HAVE to watch more SRV live performances. Little Wing (El Mocambo version), Life Without You (Capitol Theatre version), Texas Flood (El Mocambo version), or Lenny (El Mocambo version) will all blow both of your minds. I found him a year ago, and he's become my favorite artist since.

    You guys really captured onto something around the 14:25 mark. By THIS time, SRV wasn't just about blues-shredding; he had already proved he was one of the greatest guitar players of the world by then. Now he was about fitting the virtuosity TO THE SONG, and working on being a complete performer: working on his singing, making sure his backing band got a chance to be heard, and writing really unique original material. In other words, this wasn't just empty showing-off - it's a complete performance. Before he died, he had gotten sober, but he just had to charter a private flight on a helicopter. UGH. If I was a manager of a genius, I'd be, "NO. YOU ARE FLYING CORPORATE. NO ARGUING PLEASE." The amount of rock and r&b legends killed by small aircraft is disquieting. Anyway, cheers!

    Definitely “Texas Flood “ live! I think the rest of the band kept rhythm and Stevie just played what he felt. It’s hard to rate guitarists because some passed way too soon. I don’t even know if they were in their primes yet. Stevie is in that category.

    My left ear still buzzing since getting to close to a speaker on stage during sound check at the state fair in Amarillo 1988 I think.
    Awesome seeing people still finding SRV for the first time. Love it.

But after that night I was hooked!! He was an incredible gifted musician! One of my favorites is Life Without You. Glad to see you guys enjoy his music too.

    I have been a fan of the guitarist in all forms for the entirety of my life, and my top 10 are common in a lot of the top 10 lists put out by the so-called experts but because of who he was as a person, what he overcame, and his unmatched abilities with a guitar, SRV does not make my top 10, but he rather holds a spot all his own above and beyond the worldly players. Something...well...supernatural occurred when he played. He played not only through his soul and instrument, but he pulled from those that watched and listened as well. He mesmerized and captivated his audience. It is sometimes seemingly unreal. I urge you to watch closely his last performance at ACL particularly the song Leave My Girl Alone. You will see the transformation when his eyes roll back in his head and he becomes that channel that Eric Clapton refers to that Stevies music flowed from. Don't forget to focus on his hand and fingers as well. Never misses a note and never pauses for thought. And here come the goosebumps!

    • @vinm3630
      @vinm3630 2 роки тому

      This isn't exactly true because none of those artists play a song called "Voodoo Child". The name of the song is "Voodoo Chile". If you listen close, the lyrics are, "I'm a voodoo chile, Lord knows I'm a voodoo chile..."

    • @patrickmurchison9145
      @patrickmurchison9145 2 роки тому

      @@vinm3630 short answer: it's a distinction with virtually no difference!!!
      Long answer: Jimi Hendrix occasionally used different names and spellings for some of his songs. In his handwritten lyrics, he used "Voodoo Chile" for the longer song, while he used both "Voodoo CHILE (Slight Return)" and "Voodoo CHILD (Slight Return)" for the following one recorded with the Experience.
      In his handwritten album notes for Electric Ladyland sent to his record company, he listed the songs as "Voodoo Chile" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)"; when the album was released in the US by Reprise Records on October 16, 1968, these spellings for the two songs were used!!!!

    To have this kind of god-given pallant to these artists back then was just mind-blowing, for that we lost most of them due to drugs or accidents at a young age it's so heartbreaking but I don't believe anyone will ever do better then the magnificent musicians that they were. But we do have their music forever, 💔 artists that we have today only learned from the greats. The best one I can think of now is Chris Stapleton he has that mind-blowing effect 👍

    When guitar and man become one! This reminds me of something my son told me when he was in college and at a foreign language camp for a weekend. They were only allowed to speak that language. He asked the other students if they were translating in their heads or were they thinking in the language. They all said they were translating. I asked him what he was doing and he said he was thinking in the language. That's what Stevie is doing: the music just flows out of him down to his fingers! Great reaction!

    I was so blessed to see him live twice and ill never forget it, many say this version of Voodoo Chile in this clip is even better than Jimi's, thats a lot to say but go and listen to both versions and judge for yourself. Stevie said his version of this song is a tribute to Jimi's version as it was originally Jimi's song.

It's almost sacrilege when I think that he does those guys' songs better than they did, but, sometimes, he really did. If you really want to look into Stevie's soul, listen to his song, "Lenny". Best love song I've ever heard.

    I thought you had already been into some SRV. Your about to get inundated with this request Texas Flood at El-Macombo . You will see a true master at work in this video. All the greats like Clapton and BB king said Stevie was an open channel. That when that guitar gets in his hands his body turns into antenna and the music flows through him and out the guitar. There's a rare video of him doing an interview and he plays the acoustic for the interviewer and wow. He 8s just awesome. When Eric Clapton says he had to pull over and give his undivided attention the first time he heard him. You know it's something special!
