Ah yes, the stank face! It will be glued on your face now. SRV gets into your soul and will live there forever. The world need a little love, peace and Stevie Ray right about ...now! Love this channel man. Can't get enough!
I was at his last shows at Alpine Valley. I had to drive home in that fog, and it was scary. I cried, but I was so angry at the same time that helicopter pilot took off in that stuff.
My man... what you just witnessed and experienced is hands down the best blues guitarist to ever play. The “stank” he put on his solo will shake your soul. Jimi was extraordinary but SRV was a manifestation of every great blues guitarist wrapped in lightning.
"Live At the El Mocambo" (the entire event) captured one of those mystical moments in human artistic achievement. Every performance was a lightning bolt of greatness.
I'm 64, have seen and studied many of the great guitarists from the 60's thru the 90's, and SRV is the BEST of them ALL! Imagine where his skill set would be today if he wasn't taken so many years ago!!!
I was saying the same thing sir, I'm am completely beyond in awe, I'm gonna get my sound together and then I'm gonna do something special for the SRV fans
I agree...I'm 67 and I've seen them all...beginning with Jimi Hendrix when I was 12 years old. When I saw SRV in Daytona Beach in 1985?, I was blown away. He was larger than life and he was LOUD...but it all 'made sense'. I've played guitar all my life and I'm a year older then SRV...but after seeing him I kinda gave it all up...he was THE master.
Brother, I don't leave comments often but you did an outstanding job in your reaction! It was honest, funny, astute, in-depth and you are very affable. I will be watching more of your videos. God bless. SRV a beautiful soul and is by far my favorite guitarist. I saw him live 6 months before he died in Oklahoma. I still get emotional and miss him. He was clean and sober and playing better than ever. It does my soul good to see Stevie being introduced to new hearts. Try Life by the drop. ☮️ my friend
That look on Stevie’s face is called “Stank Face.” That’s because Stevie is completely immersed in the music. The Lord gave us guitar savant, Stevie Ray Vaughn to witness his greatness and then called him back into his arms.
That he did...Stevie had given his all. I heard a recording of his last concert in Wisconsin, just before he crashed into the Wisconsin mountains - I have never heard a human play guitar like that before...it was incredible, and I think his greatest performance ever.
I love watching people fall in love with Stevie and his music!!

IMHO Stevie Ray Vaughan’s performance at El Mocambo was his finest live performance ever recorded. He was just so spot on with his riffs. He was on fire!!!!
I'll respectfully disagree. If you've never heard 'Peace in the Valley' or any recordings of his final two concerts at Alpine Valley before his crash...he reached the heavens a few hours before he actually did. Even Clapton said after his set "How the hell am I supposed to follow THAT?" Check out Sweet Home Chicago, the last song he played with everyone. He so outclassed everyone and less than two hours later...he was gone
100% agree. The El Mocambo video and the Ustin City Limits performance literally stayed in my VCR for just about 10 years. If I was home it was playing. Particularly El Mocambo. If I wasnt home I could hear every lick in my head all day. Theres just something about that is visceral, raw, and a million other things. Lenny on that recording.. holy shit. It's also my favorite recording of Voodoo Chile
@@c.l.freeman7654 I was at his last show at Alpine Valley and I can say that you are absolutely right. It's almost as if he knew it was his last go at it. He was so on fire it was ridiculous. I always thought that he was phenomenal but he elevated himself to guitar god status that night.
I had the great privilege of meeting and speaking with SRV on several occasions, seeing him in concert numerous times, and when he played, it was a vibe that struck you, the energy and passion that he brought to the stage and filtered through his guitar that hit you, like a 2X4 right between your eyes. His music, especially live, changed your life. That is the greatest compliment that I can give. I recall attending the Chicago Blues Fest in 1984 or 85, while completing my doctorate degree, and it was a comfortable leisurely afternoon and evening listening to many artists and excellent performances with a good crowd, but because of the large capacity of the fairgrounds there was plenty of room to stretch-out on a towel on the great lawn, that is until Stevie showed up with his band Double Trouble around 1:00 AM and started playing, then seemingly within 15 minutes, several hundred thousand additional fans descended on the grounds and we we all packed-in like sardines, standing shoulder to shoulder witnessing greatness, a force of nature and enjoying every second of it. RIP brother, hope you are tearing it up when and if I get there.
Frankly, just stupid pure talent. I listen to this guy, all thoughts leave and I hear his music. That is a once in a lifetime gift. When I think about it, this particular performance has traumatized me..I have Never, ever experienced something like this that has "moved me" when it comes to guitar playing. All the best. Cheers.
@@paulpresto673 you have a valid point, but I think that he reached his pinnacle more due to Albert King. All are great and I don't think there is a "best", I think they were all the best at what they did. I wouldn't give up one for the other.
@@MrDevildog0321 It's true that Albert King was a BIG influence on SRV, but he did play a lot of Hendrix and "covered" his music better than anyone. But music, like science, 'develops' from the accomplishments of others. Like SRV once said when asked if he thought he was the best ever..."I learned from the greats and just try to be myself."
I agree with most here. There is no "greatest artist" ever. Each artist puts his soul on canvas. Each musician flows his soul through his instrument. Jimi is and was great. I love every song he created. But SRV had a soul that was without equal. Before he got sober... after... it doesn't matter, his music was magical.
Shout Factory Celebration of Blues & Soul will give you a mini concert from the Presidential Inaguration 1989, you will see him at the top of his game, some talking from him. He introduces his band, it is really good.
It is great to add another SRV fan -- you feel his music-he was such a humble and caring man - it was sad that he got his life together and got rid of all his demons, to be taken away like he was - RIP SRV - I think you are starting to understand us Stevie Ray fanatics!
I worked in a music store for years and I remember when Elvis died, John Lennon was shot, Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crash and I came to work that Monday morning and they told me he was killed in a helicopter crash I just fell apart. He was one of a kind with a talent in my opinion no one has ever been able to match along with a big heart. It never gets old watching him perform.
If anyone ever asks what it looks like when a mind is blown, just have them watch a reaction to SRV when he starts playing behind his back. It breaks people's brains and you can see it in their face.
COULD YOU REVIEW A SONG CALLED RIVIERA PARADISE BY STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN ITS UNLIKE HIS USUAL EXCELLENT BLUES GUITAR PLAYING ITS MORE ON THE JAZZY SIDE JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF STEVIE RAY'S VERSATILITY
At 61 years old but I’ve seen so many classic bands of all time live, Queen, Prince, Stones, Boston, Zep, and I will tell you, I would trade all those experiences just to have seen SRV PERIOD!
This entire show is a masterpiece. He ascended on that night to where his soul lives. There are 2 more songs from this show that are BEAUTIFUL guitar instrumentals. One of them is my absolute favorite guitar performance of all time, "Lenny" (Live at El Mocambo). The other one to watch is a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" (also El Mocambo), and in my opinion one of the best covers of all time.
@Patrick Glynn I bought this DVD the moment I heard it was being released. I literally watched it every day for the longest time. And I invited everyone I could think of to come witness it. It’s truly a masterpiece.
The El Mocambo, or The Elmo, is a legendary club in Toronto that was a final leg for the Underground Railroad and helped Many former slaves escape to freedom. Respect from the 6!
Wow! Just came back for a second look and thought I might contribute a quote from Stevie from an interview he did with guitar world. "I think I've got something special to say with my music. But I have to keep these things in perspective because they're gifts. It's all a gift and I have to keep giving back or it goes away. If I start believing that it's all my doing, it's gonna be my undoing. And I'm committing myself to doing the most I can with the gifts I have so they do as many people as much good as possible" And it is still lifting up spirits and doing as much good as possible and growing all the time.
Stevie, Tommy and Chris all talked about the spiritual connection they had musically but more importantly they spiritual connection they had as human beings. Peace.
We lost a Genius when he left us way too early! Imagine all the amazing music we would have had? I can only think God wanted to Jam in R&R Heaven to take him from us so early. RIP Stevie, we sure miss you down here!
Arguably the greatest to ever pick up a guitar, and I will fight anyone over that. His voice has been described as "honey poured over gravel". He also plays better behind his back than 98% of guitarists play in front. Check out him doing "Little wing" at the same concert or "Voodoo child" live. It'll change your life
Hey Brother, just found your reaction... I can Feel you Feeling the music Stevie is putting down..!!! Have you ever been lost in a musical experience that is so Beautiful and the next thing you know you feel tears on your cheeks..?! Stevie is one of the few performers that have done that to me..!!
There will never be any convincing me thar a better guitarist has ever walked this planet. This is simply spectacular and I've been a fan for 35 years.
Brian Johnson SRV is the Greatest of all time in Blues and Rock. Paco De Lucia is the greatest in Flamenco ( fastest lightening fingers) in history!! Yes two untouchables.
Finally a reaction that is as raw as Stevies playing. You will get the same intensity in every live video because this man leaves everything on stage. Stevie started playing at the age of 7. He was inspired by 1st and foremost his big brother Jimmy Vaughn a legend in his own right, other legendary artists include B.B King, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Albert King and many other legends that paved the way for other artists to put their spin on the blues. The world mourned the loss of the worlds greatest guitarist. They say he played "like a man on fire". Stevie Ray Vaughn untimely death shocked the world but will always stay in our hearts forever.
I Love the guitar and hearing it play Stevie Ray Vaughan he was truly amazing gifted guartist and he also played by ear and I named my son after him I have twins a boy and a girl but my son is named Stephen Ray I just spelled different the world truly lost amazing artist now I like many others guartist but I always say Stevie Ray is the greatest blues guartist . I Love your reactions
Brother I'm guitar picker down here in Austin and I've been playing for 45 years. I'm pretty good but it takes devotion to play like Stevie. Practice, practice, practice!
Good reaction. You appreciate Vaughn for who he was and he was great. At some levels it is hard to say who is the best ever but Stevie certainly merits being included in the discussion.
We owe so much to black music... what a great thing you guys gave to the world... jazz, gospel, blues, r & b... soul... Hiphop... God, the world would be lost without black music....
I lived in Austin during his heyday and saw him live near A dozen times, A couple of times his brother Jimmy and his band were there too. I remember one outdoor concert it started raining pretty hard. The band had to leave the stage, but nearly the entire audience waited it out, standing in the rain, for Stevie Ray and Double Trouble to be able to retake the stage, about an hour later. It was worth it.
Yes, I 100% agree. No one before or since can captivate and command my attention and quite literally transend my being the way Stevie Ray Vaughan can, 30 years gone now...thank God for video!
Texans are PROUD of our #SRV! Love him! Your reaction...PRICELESS! We all make those faces, don’t feel lonely. Even if, what a way, right? Rest In Peace Stevie! GOAT!
I loved your expression, Michael, when he started playing behind his back. It took me quite a while to recognize that his voice is excellent. Because I was mesmerized by his guitar playing.
I just love seeing people reacting to this song and see their expression when Stevie goes behind his back. Priceless. Great reaction. Welcome to the SRV world.
StevieRayVaughan must be watched on live video. Seeing and hearing him play live gives you the true measure of his greatness. The man is not just playing a song to entertain you, he is inviting to into his soul. If you accept the invitation, you will leave the experience a changed person. maybe with just a new appreciation of the blues, but maybe, just maybe, a self awareness of some part of your inner self you were not aware of.
It gives me great pleasure to see reactions to Stevie Ray Vaughan...and yours has been the best among them. I was fortunate to see him live twice...July 4, 1986 at the Farm Aid II Concert near Austin, Tx...and then thankfully (and sadly), his final concert on August 26, 1990 at the Alpine Valley Music Theater near East Troy, Wisconsin. In my mind...and heart...he will always be the best guitarist I have ever had the honor to see and hear...
THE G.O.A.T.! Awesome reaction! On your own, watch same song but different concerts. You won't be disappointed. Didn't play a song the same way twice. SRV totally loved what he was doing and so do we ❤ and high praise to Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton and later Reese Wyman (sp? ) who nail it along with SRV!
Thank you for reacting to this. Just THANK YOU. I’ve been a Stevie fan since 1984 and I’m STILL blown away EVERY time I listen to his music. Oh, don’t worry, most folks are at a loss for words when listening to SRV. AND you’ll get SEVERE stank face EVERY time he’s in a groove.
Yes - all that music came out of 3 people. Welcome aboard, my friend. So glad to see someone discover such a talent as SRV. The man was an absolute monster. Always adjusting his sound, tweaking it here, bending down to adjust a pedal there (I'm sure you saw him reach up and tune a string in this video) and forever searching for that perfect sound. No matter which SRV video you choose to watch next, pay attention to the pickup selector switch (the littlest white knob right next to the letter S in SRV.) He changes it throughout the tune he's playing, and he's so smooth with it, nobody ever notices he's changed it. One second it's up, the next it's down. It's that continuous quest for the perfect tone, along with hard-earned mastery of his instrument, that made Stevie the best.
Hi from London England Brother. LOVE your reaction, very heart felt and true. I play Guitar and unfortunately for me discovered SRV late, i'm in my Forties. Has been life changing for me I swear, I WILL visit Dallas and Austin one day, its a bucket list thing for me to Visit Stevie's resting place, his statue and the clubs he and Double Trouble performed in....Watching this gave me goosebumps, always does. RIP Stevie x

I cried so hard the day he died. There might never have been such a tragic loss to the music world in a long, long time.
I was at his last shows at Alpine Valley. I had to drive home in that fog, and it was scary. I cried, but I was so angry at the same time that helicopter pilot took off in that stuff.
@@dgreene4234 you drove through the Fog. Did you stop?

62 here and he's the best in my book. He took guitar playing to a level unattainable by mortals.
@@abc456f he was truly remarkable

@@paulpresto673 he gives us all Stank face!! Stank fave was originated from his music!!!!
Never get tired of seeing reactions to seeing Stevie Ray Vaughn from people that aren't completely familiar with this genuis
Simply the GOAT!!!!
SRV at The El Mocambo is the best set of live blues playing I've seen, and I've seen a lot. It's freaking incendiary.
Your face when he flings that thing behind his back... priceless!
Brother, I don't leave comments often but you did an outstanding job in your reaction! It was honest, funny, astute, in-depth and you are very affable. I will be watching more of your videos. God bless. SRV a beautiful soul and is by far my favorite guitarist. I saw him live 6 months before he died in Oklahoma. I still get emotional and miss him.

Stevie is T-H-E G-O-A-T. there's absolutely nothing like watching a legend like Stevie Ray rip out his heart and throw it on the stage.
I had the privilege of seeing his last concert with Double Trouble at the Memphis in May music festival in 1990 .
Well said!
Wow!! I've said my share of SRV comments but you did good son!! Assuming I'm older than you...😂
Yep that was the real deal,no frills, no gimmicks. That was in a bar in downtown Toronto,Canada. Best show ever recorded.
That look on Stevie’s face is called “Stank Face.” That’s because Stevie is completely immersed in the music. The Lord gave us guitar savant, Stevie Ray Vaughn to witness his greatness and then called him back into his arms.
Then he brought him back as a 10 year old kid...Taj Farrant...ua-cam.com/video/E0eACoei1eo/v-deo.html
That he did...Stevie had given his all. I heard a recording of his last concert in Wisconsin, just before he crashed into the Wisconsin mountains - I have never heard a human play guitar like that before...it was incredible, and I think his greatest performance ever.
SRV flows like H2O. Till this day, SRV, puts me in a particular mood when I get off work. I go to my chill zone. Rest in peace SRV.

Check out his recording from Ripley's Music Hallin '83. Best SRV performance, imho.
I loved his performance of Little Wing in that same concert! It was unbelievable...
@@c.l.freeman7654 I was at his last show at Alpine Valley and I can say that you are absolutely right. It's almost as if he knew it was his last go at it. He was so on fire it was ridiculous. I always thought that he was phenomenal but he elevated himself to guitar god status that night.
The licks he played between the vocal lines were greater solos than most guitarist can achieve in their whole musical careers.
I had the great privilege of meeting and speaking with SRV on several occasions, seeing him in concert numerous times, and when he played, it was a vibe that struck you, the energy and passion that he brought to the stage and filtered through his guitar that hit you, like a 2X4 right between your eyes.

Thanks for your respect to SRV!!! He was a great person too!!! RIP Stevie! Thanks for leaving so much entertainment!!!

Life without You live, if you can find it, you see the joy he had after he come back from his addictions. The man just glowed.
I agree no disrespect to Jimi but SRV is the GOAT
I disagree no disrespect to SRV but Jimi will always be the true GOAT.
That he is Rick...but Jimi gave the world something that no other artist had before. SRV reached his pinnacle because of Hendrix.
@@paulpresto673 you have a valid point, but I think that he reached his pinnacle more due to Albert King. All are great and I don't think there is a "best", I think they were all the best at what they did. I wouldn't give up one for the other.

“Pure talent, pure legend, dominance of a musical instrument.” Beautifully put and couldn’t agree more
Etta James said in her autobiography that he was one of her all-time favorites.
Movierebel3 Can there be any higher praise? Wow!
Whomever the 2 persons are that disliked this, first off your haters, SECONDLY,YOU'RE ASSHOLES!!!! Yup, you're fuckin idiot's
Stevie would appreciate that, but why would who her favorite was, matter? Was she a guitar expert?
Heavy Mental she was not a guitar expert but she was a legend in music and soul. More than I can say for you my friend.
Shout Factory Celebration of Blues & Soul will give you a mini concert from the Presidential Inaguration 1989, you will see him at the top of his game, some talking from him. He introduces his band, it is really good.

Absolutely, thank you so much for watching!
I couldn't agree more!
He got rid of his demons in 1985 and the Lord took him in 1990...
He made his guitar beg for mercy! RIP to my favorite guitarist ever! What an amazing talent..
The expression on your face when SRV played behind his back is PRICELESS. Bless you sir.
The man virtually NEVER even looked at his guitar. Pure muscle memory.
I worked in a music store for years and I remember when Elvis died, John Lennon was shot, Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crash and I came to work that Monday morning and they told me he was killed in a helicopter crash I just fell apart. He was one of a kind with a talent in my opinion no one has ever been able to match along with a big heart. It never gets old watching him perform.
Absolutely effortless, flawless and mesmerising. We will never see another SRV 😢
If anyone ever asks what it looks like when a mind is blown, just have them watch a reaction to SRV when he starts playing behind his back. It breaks people's brains and you can see it in their face.
Man .... I e said the exact same thing one like 10 reaction videos hahaha lmao so true
G. O. A. T.!!
No one feels the music and is one with the guitar. Notice how he rarely looks at the guitar
Steve Vai does the same
MY TEXAS KING!!! ❤️👑❤️❤️👏🏼🙌🏼 Awesome commentary! 😁
Glad you enjoyed it
I love your reactions, I grew up in the 60s and 70s listening to my older brothers music , I was blessed!
Any time someone is better live than in studio they’re the real deal!
“Little Wing” at El Mocambo
“Lenny” at El Mocambo
“Voodoo Chile” Live in Texas!
COULD YOU REVIEW A SONG CALLED RIVIERA PARADISE BY STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN ITS UNLIKE HIS USUAL EXCELLENT BLUES GUITAR PLAYING ITS MORE ON THE JAZZY SIDE JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF STEVIE RAY'S VERSATILITY
Don't you mean "Voodoo Child"?
Lynne Goodrich NO. Please you tube stop with voodoo child. It is voodoo chile. Don’t know why people can’t do the slightest due diligence.
you said it!!
The Voodoo Chile Live in Texas has one of the greatest solos I’ve ever heard
At 61 years old but I’ve seen so many classic bands of all time live, Queen, Prince, Stones, Boston, Zep, and I will tell you, I would trade all those experiences just to have seen SRV PERIOD!
Severe "Stank Face" is inevitable anytime one listens to the late great Stevie Ray Vaughan!
This entire show is a masterpiece. He ascended on that night to where his soul lives. There are 2 more songs from this show that are BEAUTIFUL guitar instrumentals. One of them is my absolute favorite guitar performance of all time, "Lenny" (Live at El Mocambo). The other one to watch is a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing" (also El Mocambo), and in my opinion one of the best covers of all time.
Ascended...yes. Eloquently put.
Very well put and agree with everything you said!
This entire concert is on another level

He was literally the greatest! Life changing - once you go Stevie you will never go back!!!🎸🎸🎸🍒🍒🍒🔥🔥🔥😎
THE GOAT! The more I watch/listen to him, the more I realize...........HE IS THE GOAT!!!!
Stevie didn't go into beast mode he lived there. And my. Heart bleeds Carolina blue ✌💖
Stevie, Tommy and Chris all talked about the spiritual connection they had musically but more importantly they spiritual connection they had as human beings. Peace.
Childhood grooves, thanks again for your attention to detail.
If Jimi and Stevie ever played on the same stage, the world would end.
Buddy Wiser nah bro, they jamming together in the same place
You know they are jammin up in the sky!! And both are taking notes!
Great reaction. What else can you say. Pure talent. Rest in peace SRV
I could only imagine what kind of music the great Stevie Ray Vaughn would be giving us the pleasure of hearing now . The greatest in my mind.
Thank you for making my day, the look on your face :) Jimmy Page and Stevie Ray Vaughan are my top two favorite guitarist.
One of the best reaction videos I have seen for Texas Flood!
Thank you!
Every single time I give my sons my stank face.. they pop right back with " oh Lord, momma's SRV face "! 🙄😂😂
LMAO!!
So Awesome
Brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to him, knowing he's gone.
“WHAT THE HELL!” Loved it, that’s all you can say when you see that the first time. 😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
There are great guitarists, and there are NEXT LEVEL guitarists. SRV was without a doubt, a NEXT LEVEL guitarist.
We lost a Genius when he left us way too early! Imagine all the amazing music we would have had? I can only think God wanted to Jam in R&R Heaven to take him from us so early. RIP Stevie, we sure miss you down here!

You won't have to fight ME! I say he IS the GOAT...no one will surpass him.
Hey Brother, just found your reaction... I can Feel you Feeling the music Stevie is putting down..!!! Have you ever been lost in a musical experience that is so Beautiful and the next thing you know you feel tears on your cheeks..?! Stevie is one of the few performers that have done that to me..!!
BEST Blues Guitarist to ever grace the Earth, period.
Watching folks react to SRV for the first time is my new favorite hobby. Love the enthusiasm.
That was stunning
When you discover StevieRay its like you can start to see things
That whole show is amazing!
Love your reaction. We have all been touched by the magic of SRV. Love him and miss him! A true guitar legend....
For me, SRV is one of those rare musicians who doesn't just PLAY an instrument, they become ONE with the instrument.
There will never be any convincing me thar a better guitarist has ever walked this planet.
This is simply spectacular
and I've been a fan for 35 years.
Brian Johnson SRV is the Greatest of all time in Blues and Rock.
Paco De Lucia is the greatest in Flamenco ( fastest lightening fingers) in history!! Yes two untouchables.
Finally a reaction that is as raw as Stevies playing. You will get the same intensity in every live video because this man leaves everything on stage. Stevie started playing at the age of 7. He was inspired by 1st and foremost his big brother Jimmy Vaughn a legend in his own right, other legendary artists include B.B King, Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy, Albert King and many other legends that paved the way for other artists to put their spin on the blues. The world mourned the loss of the worlds greatest guitarist. They say he played "like a man on fire". Stevie Ray Vaughn untimely death shocked the world but will always stay in our hearts forever.
I Love the guitar and hearing it play Stevie Ray Vaughan he was truly amazing gifted guartist and he also played by ear and I named my son after him I have twins a boy and a girl but my son is named Stephen Ray I just spelled different the world truly lost amazing artist now I like many others guartist but I always say Stevie Ray is the greatest blues guartist . I Love your reactions
Thanks for responding to my comment
What the Hell? Yeah, that's SRV. Everytime I think I'm good on guitar I listen to him and realize I suck.
Lord im just starting to learn so I know I suck, but wow bro!!!
Jay Patterson 🤣 it’s why we played air guitar 🎸
Don't think you suck just because you aren't as good as SRV. How many are as good?
Dont feel bad..We all suck when compared to Stevie.
Brother I'm guitar picker down here in Austin and I've been playing for 45 years. I'm pretty good but it takes devotion to play like Stevie. Practice, practice, practice!
Well, this is officially my favorite reaction video. Brings me joy.
Good reaction. You appreciate Vaughn for who he was and he was great. At some levels it is hard to say who is the best ever but Stevie certainly merits being included in the discussion.
We owe so much to black music... what a great thing you guys gave to the world... jazz, gospel, blues, r & b... soul... Hiphop... God, the world would be lost without black music....
I lived in Austin during his heyday and saw him live near A dozen times, A couple of times his brother Jimmy and his band were there too. I remember one outdoor concert it started raining pretty hard. The band had to leave the stage, but nearly the entire audience waited it out, standing in the rain, for Stevie Ray and Double Trouble to be able to retake the stage, about an hour later. It was worth it.
It’s a helluva thing to see a man be totally connected to the spiritual plane. He had a direct line.
Yes, I 100% agree. No one before or since can captivate and command my attention and quite literally transend my being the way Stevie Ray Vaughan can, 30 years gone now...thank God for video!
There is no better show to pick for your SRV reaction than Live at the El Mocambo. That whole show is legendary all the way through.
Texans are PROUD of our #SRV! Love him! Your reaction...PRICELESS! We all make those faces, don’t feel lonely. Even if, what a way, right? Rest In Peace Stevie! GOAT!
I loved your expression, Michael, when he started playing behind his back. It took me quite a while to recognize that his voice is excellent. Because I was mesmerized by his guitar playing.
I’m curious is that you in the avatar?
Stevie Ray and Albert King , never get tired of hearing their music. We are thankful to have had them as long as we did.
I just love seeing people reacting to this song and see their expression when Stevie goes behind his back. Priceless. Great reaction. Welcome to the SRV world.
StevieRayVaughan must be watched on live video. Seeing and hearing him play live gives you the true measure of his greatness. The man is not just playing a song to entertain you, he is inviting to into his soul. If you accept the invitation, you will leave the experience a changed person. maybe with just a new appreciation of the blues, but maybe, just maybe, a self awareness of some part of your inner self you were not aware of.
It gives me great pleasure to see reactions to Stevie Ray Vaughan...and yours has been the best among them. I was fortunate to see him live twice...July 4, 1986 at the Farm Aid II Concert near Austin, Tx...and then thankfully (and sadly), his final concert on August 26, 1990 at the Alpine Valley Music Theater near East Troy, Wisconsin. In my mind...and heart...he will always be the best guitarist I have ever had the honor to see and hear...
THE G.O.A.T.! Awesome reaction! On your own, watch same song but different concerts. You won't be disappointed. Didn't play a song the same way twice. SRV totally loved what he was doing and so do we ❤ and high praise to Tommy Shannon and Chris Layton and later Reese Wyman (sp? ) who nail it along with SRV!
Love to watch people see this for the first time! Thanks for the great reaction! No one can compare to Stevie, in my humble opinion.
RIP SRV THE ONE AND ONLY GOAT
Watched SRV full show at The Wax Museum from 83. Insane from start to end. Stevie broke a string during Texas Flood and fought through.
Thank you for reacting to this. Just THANK YOU. I’ve been a Stevie fan since 1984 and I’m STILL blown away EVERY time I listen to his music. Oh, don’t worry, most folks are at a loss for words when listening to SRV. AND you’ll get SEVERE stank face EVERY time he’s in a groove.
Yes - all that music came out of 3 people. Welcome aboard, my friend. So glad to see someone discover such a talent as SRV. The man was an absolute monster. Always adjusting his sound, tweaking it here, bending down to adjust a pedal there (I'm sure you saw him reach up and tune a string in this video) and forever searching for that perfect sound. No matter which SRV video you choose to watch next, pay attention to the pickup selector switch (the littlest white knob right next to the letter S in SRV.) He changes it throughout the tune he's playing, and he's so smooth with it, nobody ever notices he's changed it. One second it's up, the next it's down. It's that continuous quest for the perfect tone, along with hard-earned mastery of his instrument, that made Stevie the best.
Goddamn, He's simply the Goat!!!!
@@DramaSydETV Amen.
I saw SRV 4 times in concert. Simply incredible. The best!! Don’t forget the bassist and the drummer. Those guys are killing it!
I like your style and the fact that you mentioned my favorite Jimi Hendrix you earned my subscription
Keep up the good work
There will only be one SRV. Thanks for recognizing Brother Drama !
I sadly only discovered him after his death. He basically brings tears to my eye with every chord.
At close to 80 years of age, I still can groove over this great legend, rest his soul.
Hi from London England Brother. LOVE your reaction, very heart felt and true. I play Guitar and unfortunately for me discovered SRV late, i'm in my Forties. Has been life changing for me I swear, I WILL visit Dallas and Austin one day, its a bucket list thing for me to Visit Stevie's resting place, his statue and the clubs he and Double Trouble performed in....Watching this gave me goosebumps, always does. RIP Stevie x
He was unreal...a true talent from God!!!!! I wish I could watch him live again!!
Best live guitar performance i've ever seen also! SRV had an awesome blues voice also!
Your expressions are priceless! That sir is good for the soul Thank you!
How fortunate and blessed were the ears that were in that audience! I wish I would have had a chance to witness him live.
