In my eyes, Stevie Ray Vaughan is the GOAT! He had passion and soul flowing through his veins, not blood. This man used #13 guitar gauge strings while some others were using 10. I have been enjoying all the reaction videos of him, and to me, his live performances are the best. He is so exciting and there is a mellow tune, Riviera Paradise, that is actually my favorite for some reason. When he was on that stage he was oblivious to everyone except for his guitar, and his band. Plus he had a great voice! You gotta' love his band to be able to keep up with him. Tommy, Chris and Reese, all great musicians. Stevie Ray became one with that guitar (all his guitars for that matter!) Had he lived, his music would have branched out like nobody's business. He was taken much too soon.
I love Riviera Paradise. Of course I love everything SRV. How about his live performance of Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland! An absolutely amazing performance ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. 5 stars fo sho!
💯
Life Without You at Capital Theatre in 1985 with his beautiful life message that is even more prevalent today. RIP SRV🎸
I've never understood how there are some who disparage Stevie as a guitarist. First off, one has to realize that Stevie is playing a guitar with extremely heavy strings (13's on the high E) and with incredibly high action. I'd like to see somebody else play with that kind of technical proficiency on an instrument with THAT set up---and oh yeah, behind their back! Secondly, Stevie never played a song the same way twice. He went totally by feeling, and improvised a bit each time, and never seemed lost when performing. Honestly, I can't think of another guitarist, past or present---or even imagine of one---who could exhibit SRV's combination of technical prowess, emotion, tone, showmanship, and mind-boggling physicality like he did. And then, throw in for good measure the just right singing voice to complement his particular playing style and genre. Incidently, Stevie was as sweet and humble a person as he was an unbelievable guitar player. There will never be another like him. Thank God for the legacy he left us!
Who's disparaged Stevie? I'll break their nose.....
I swear to God you must be my long lost twin! You articulated your comment exactly as I would have. I’m a fan of everything SRV. Pretty good musician for a little quiet 5 foot 5 guy who never learned to read music! What a monstrous talent that went away far too soon. Great commentary Alan ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@UglyDoug304 Thanks for the kind words, brother! Yeah, I'm pretty passionate on the subject of Stevie. I wish I could have known him personally. God bless!
Most people have no understanding of how heavy 13s are! Knowing how thick those are and seeing him bend the strings up towards nut is mind-blowing! His finger strength was just amazing. The fact that he could do it to get that sound is epic. If you listen to the song Lenny, you'll see how much emotion he puts in his playing. That song made me cry when I first heard it decades ago, and still does to this day.
Me too!!

Best slow blues guitar performance ever recorded - RIP SRV
The GOAT OF GOATS...PERIOD!!!!! 😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
During the slow down before I have a cardiac arrest you can really hear those super thick gauge strings that Stevie used. What a great sound! Kinda scratchy and powerful. I love this man for the obvious reasons. Greatest player to ever strap a 6 string on his back. He was also such a kindred soul and a humble soft spoken man. God I miss him. I met him in a nightclub in Houston (my hometown) back in 76 or 77. People in the crowd were covering their ears because it was mega ridiculous loud! I was NOT one of those people covering my ears!❤❤❤❤
ANNND , his acoustic playing was astounding.
We were so lucky to have seen SRV in Seattle when Stevie opened for Ray Charles. Paid $7.50 per ticket. Stevie came on and awed and astounded the crowd. We were sweating by the end of his set and Ray was dancing in the wings. What a pure hearted talent born with a guitar in his hands. RIP SWEET SRV. ❤
BORN IN DALLAS TEXAS LIVED IN AUSTIN TEXAS THE BEST GUITARIST EVER HAS BEEN AND EVER WILL BE WE LOST YOU SRV WAY TOO SOON RIP SRV WE ALL MISS YOU
SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness
**Life Without You at Capitol Theater**
GOD rest his soul !!! I was fortunate to see him twice in the 80's UNFORGETTABLE 😅
This is the guitar GOAT, any genre, and this is the greatest use of a guitar I have ever heard in my 58 years.
Nathan, please explain the “some people say SRV repeats himself” statement, where you offered no details or attribution. I’ve heard people allege that SRV tried to be like Hendrix or that he was too much into string bends, but the “repetition” knock is weird. By the way, he was arguably the best blues-rock musician who ever lived.
Sadly, I was at Stevie Ray Vaughn's last concert the night his helicopter crashed after the show at Alpine Valley Wisconsin August 26th 1990. The fog was so bad that we stopped and got a hotel room on the way home. The lineup was SRV, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray and Buddy Guy. RIP SRV!
Lucky to have seen him 3 times in concert. The first was warming up for BOSTON. I had never heard of him but it was one of those "OMFG , who is this guy?" moments.
Thanks for bringing this today guys🎸🎶💙‼️. There might be a few individuals that think Stevie Ray is repetitive but are either jealous or haven't explored his offerings at all. I would highly recommend Tin Pan Alley at Montreux Jazz Festival 1985 that features him with Johnny Copeland, another great Texan Blues man. They give a master class in down and dirty blues, truly an outstanding iconic performance💙🎸🎶‼️💯
If repetitive means genius....I agree! THE GOAT!
@@williamcabell142 exactly! Repetitively genius when he strapped in to play🎸🎶💯
xo
@@stangsswang8355 hey Stang👋✌️🎶💙
Had no professional training. No two performances were the same. I read he learned some things by making the sounds with his mouth and figuring out how to do it on guitar. Eric Clapton said he couldn't watch Stevie perform on tour because it would kill his own confidence. Eric was the headliner.
Couldn’t read music and never needed to. A true prodigy.
was lucky enough...old enough to see him in Austin one time..fabulous...
Stevie Ray Vaughan was born in Dallas Texas on October 3,1954, he has a brother named Jimmie Vaughan who is 3 yrs older then him. Jimmie is a great guitarist In his own right and had a band called The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Jimmie was the first to get an electric guitar and Stevie Ray loved it so on his 7th birthday he was given a toy guitar with cowboys and even though it was a toy guitar he learned to play Wine Wine Wine and Thunderbird by The Night Caps. He would play Jimmie's electric guitar when he left the house but when he heard a Muddy Watters record he said he was hooked on the Blues and that's what he wanted to play. Alot of people say negative things about Stevie Ray but they don't realize that he play a show with Albert King who was actually Stevie Ray's godfather called In Session, in the show Albert King Stevie Ray with that Blues sound telling Stevie Ray listen to this song and they would talk, Albert King to take his songs and fix them up a little. In honor of a Blues legend that he loved and respected and Albert loved and respected Stevie Ray he had carried that sound with him. In 1964 Jimmie gave Stevie Ray his electric guitar when he got a new one for Stevie Ray's first gig at a roller rink, Stevie Ray joined a band called Krackerjack along with Tommy Shannon his basses for Double Trouble when they were school mates. If you watch every Stevie Ray video you will see he plays every song different but was a master with his guitar and he could play behind his head, backwards, one hand, broken string, switch up guitars in the middle of a solo and never missed a beat, tune his guitar while playing, even no hands by moving the guitar up and down side to side, with his teeth adjusted his AMP'S while playing with one hand, using his elbow but could play behind his back longer than anyone ever could. Stevie Ray's career only span 7 years but he accomplished so much with the start of this song Texas Flood he which was released on June 13, 1983 on December 13,1983 Stevie Ray was voted Guitar Player Magazine's Best New Talent, Best Electric Blues Guitar Player, Best Guitar Album with his album Texas Flood, Stevie Ray was only the 2nd one to be a Triple Award Guitarist along with Jeff Beck. On November 18,1984 Stevie Ray won a W.C.Handy National Blues Award, Entertainer Of The Year and Instermental Of The Year and was the first white person to win either. In 1982 a yr before Texas Flood was released he was inducted into The Austin Music Hall Of Fame, in 2000 he was inducted into The Blues Hall Of Fame and in 2015 he was inducted into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame on August 13,1990 all 5 of his albums sold over 500,000 copies and certified gold. Sadly Stevie Ray was never able to see a #1 hit but 2 months after his death Crossfire hit #1. On August 26, 1990 Stevie Ray went to East Troy Wisconsin along with Robert Clay, Buddy Guy and his brother Jimmie Vaughan to open 2 shows for Eric Clapton at The Alpine Valley Music Theater, the shows were sold out to 40,000 fans, on the last night of his show Eric Clapton had them all on stage and the last song Stevie Ray would ever perform was Sweet Home Chicago by Robert Johnson. On August 27,1990 after the show Stevie Ray boarded a helicopter that crashed into the side of a mountain after takeoff and everyone on board were killed instantly. The pilot had just failed his test on using the gages, it was the first time he flew that helicopter and he never flew at night so needless to say it was pilot error. Sorry I tried to get as much information as possible and short but again I failed. Imo Stevie Ray Vaughan will always be the GOAT
The Blues is indeed about the FEELING.
I loved Stevie Ray back in the day. 👍
No guitarist in the world can dump on Stevie.
😂 I'm 65 years old and I listened to Stevie Ray throughout his career until the crash in his death. I love Blues the first time Eric Clapton Stevie Ray play he said that he got goosebumps because he knew he was in the presence of greatness. Stevie Ray and Jimi Hendrix taught you kids how to play and what was possible. Your arrogance is hysterical😂
Your arrogance about people’s supposed arrogance is hysterical
Good comment about his criticism. People that say those things discount that nobody else can pull off the playing with the swag that he had; only Jimi and Prince mix brilliance with swag like Stevie does. They just play the right things at the right time, but with swag.
SRV never played a song the same way twice. Tommy Shannon was always looking at SRV to see where he was going. Life Without You, Look Little Sister, won't ruin the surprise. Pride and Joy. Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland.
I highly suggest Life Without You at the Capitol theatre in in Passaic NJ. Written by Stevie for his friend Charley Wirz who was a mentor and helped Stevie in how he designed his guitars. Best vocal great solo and message
How could anyone not be moved by this is beyond me!❤
Peak level musician
Prepare to be amazed!
I love this performance ❤ Another great performance is SRV live in Austin with Mary Had a Little Lamb. Stevie can go from 0 to 60 so fast your head spins!
Going down the Stevie journey may just be the final push for me to join after being a cheap bastard and enjoying your channel for a couple of years as a freeloader! That performance is one of the most revered untouchable moments in guitar history, and the nay-sayers are questionable sources at best, saying it nicely, when it comes to denying what an incredible blues player and guitar legend Stevie was; its like if they can all do it and it is so simple why has no one heard of you or made custom Fender guitars with your initials? Literally no one has come close to his stature as a blues artist or guitar legend in the 33 years since we lost him. No need to list all the reasons, and there are receipts - there is a rhyme and reason not just hype as to why he is in such regard. Why aren't all of his detractors in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (such as it is it's not for nothing) have giant statues in downtown Austin and a legion of millions upon millions, that's not an over-statement(myself guilty) of people who've grown up emulating his style, tone, and technical prowess (or attempting to no avail!) while retaining a drive to improvise in classic electric blues fashion? I know why - because he is SICK beyond comprehension. Just like in the end all the arguments fall flat for Robert Johnson being over-hyped when you really listen to him, you walk away scratching your head, and not all, but most guitar players know this. But I'm glad you pointed it out as it is a thing, for sure. But not that big of one. I mean, David Gilmour lacks anything close to Stevie's ability yet I love him nearly equal for his unique sound and style - you don't need to play super fast. SRV can, and will, but usually doesn't - but when he does few can touch him. But his unreal tone and boundless creativity within the blues genre is what most players would spend a lifetime seeking to duplicate. All blues is an evolution of what came before it, all of it uses the same pentatonic scale, but THAT performance and sound - that right there - the tone, the .13 gage strings, his story, his endless improvisational zones he enters; every box checks - but, as for why it would be a great musical reaction journey, he's such a showman, such a humble and amazing person, and guitar player and overall musician of pure excellence that the numbers of live songs cover a large swath of different territory albeit Texas Blues/Rock, he does not get boring at all nor repetative (to gain his mastery he started at 7 and with an older brother who is also a Texas Blues legend to watch, he copied and mastered every sound he heard, from surf rock, to the British invasion, to Jimi of course, to old Delta nd Texas folk blues, to guitar jazz masters like Wes Montgomery, to the Chicago electric blues revolution, in particular Albert King, Texas swing music - he mashed it all together, turned it up to 11 and just went nuts, that is Stevie. And that is why his name rings out and others before, during and after don't, though they are all awesome in their own ways. It is to his credit as you aptly both pointed out one can get boxed in by their genre, especially one like blues. But everything from his hat, to his alligator boots - it all tracks with his legend....most of all his battered Strat - probably if you polled guitarists as to which guitar they covet the most on Earth, who is to say for sure of course, but it would not surprise me if SRV's #1 was the winner. Thanks for that, always fun watching ya'll. Sorry for breaking the long comment bad form. Peace//
Great and informative comment‼️ thanks for taking the time to educate. Anyone who believes Stevie Ray is repetitive has not watched him very much or is insanely jealous☺️
Yes, thanks....I will always love Stevie!!
Life Without You Live at Capital Theater. Just as moving as this one.
Texas blues are intense.
New subscriber here, SRV is my favorite of all time . I'd suggest life without you capitol theater NJ 1985 or Tin pan alley with guest Johnny Copland
SRV, true Texas icon. Please react to Stevie on Austin City Limits playing "Look at Little Sister." Watch what happens when he breaks a string...
Voodoo Child, Life Without You and too many to name here!
Aurora and now Stevie Ray. Cool❤
You definitely must watch Jeff Healey and Stevie Ray Vaughan ",Look at Little Sister". Jeff was blind,but he was a beast on the guitar. He's the only person who could kinda hold his own with Stevie Ray, at least in that version of that song. Stevie has another version out there with Double Trouble and it's equally amazing. He never played a song the same way twice.
Anything from SRV’s performances 2 on Austin City Limits. I prefer the 1989 one, but both are great. And, my favorite ‘Life Without You’ live from Capital Theater 1985.
I still remember exactly where I was when they announced over the radio that he died.
Best songwriting, vocals, guitar, performance..."Ain't Gonna Give Up on Love"-Capitol Theatre.
Eye watering, pin your ears back stuff.
Grown-folks music.
This suggestion is right on khart1070🎸🎶💙‼️. It is one of my favorite performances❣️
If you a very classic example of showing emotion and speaking through the guitar you really need to see Gary Moore " Messiah Will Come Again" live at Montreaux. You'll swear there was singing and experience a whole range of emotion. Truely one of the GOATs.
I’ve done Gary on my first channel-Ryan
Ya'll really wanna see what he does with the guitar. Check out Stevie Ray Vaughan live at Jazz Festival 3rd Stone from the Sun. WARNIN' MIND BLOWER ALERT ⚠️ ❤.
And DOUBLE TROUBLE!!! What is it going to take to get the flowers for his bandmates and best friends?!!!!
People play rhe guitar but SRV plays with it like it's a toy 😊
Just for the record this is at the El Mocombo a famous bar in Toronto.
Stevie doesn’t miss when’s playing, at least I’ve never heard it or seen it. He’s flawless. As your talking about his techniques none better then his “Tin pan Alley” with Johnny Copeland.

we call it texas blues..add janis joplin....winters brothers..zz top too
Listen to Riviera Paradise, Stang's Swang... He could do whatever he wanted.
Do yourself a favour and watch the hole concert I had read about Stevie around 1984 in music magazines and travel 750 kilometres to buy his first album I listened to the first track and 2 seconds into love struck baby and I said to the guy behind the counter I'll take it then I saw Stevie live in Sydney Australia in 1986 and he is my favourite musician ever since.
Live at the El Mocambo
Please listen to the song. Couldn't stand the weather
And life without you from the capital theater in New Jersey. 1985. Simply great 👍
I just ask that those talking smack to please post a video of you doing better. As a guy who couldn't read music, he did pretty good. His brother Jimmy once said that the hardest part of playing with Stevie was that he never played a song the same way "once".
At birth thry tried to separate SRV and a Fender strat. Thank God they couldn't
SRV minha alma agradece👏👏👏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇧🇷.
Thanks, guys.. "criticism"? OMG, he is the GOAT... IMHO... (love those acronyms... LOL).. nobody like him... have you heard "Tin Pan Alley" with Johnny Copeland.. if you dig the blues, it totally will give you the feels.. lol ua-cam.com/video/AGPx-ekqZEo/v-deo.html
I suppose Stevie Ray plays about as good as anybody else, right?😂😂😂
Ol' Number One needed a cigaret after Stevie was through.
It would be awesome if you guys would react to SRV song "Tightrope " from his In Step album. It's one of his coolest songs with some of his most aggressive playing. I don't know why anyone doing reactions never get this request! I would play it from the album / studio version. I have looked and haven't been able to find a decent live video with good audio. Thanks guys!
Austin City Limits 1989 performance of Tightrope is the best I’ve seen. Great camera work and phenomenal sound quality.
@UglyDoug304 wow, sorry Doug. I meant his song "Wall of denial"
It's a fantastic song and Stevie at some of his best! You're right. The version of tightrope from Austin city limits is probably the best live version. But please consider reacting to Wall of Denial. Studio version. Thanks!
Yeah, do VooDoo Chile!
srv "voodoo chile" live in nashville.
There's always one spoiler alert when there's two lol..
Why do all the great one's have to die young? They're like shooting stars, brilliant for a short time 😢
Now, if you want to get Ryan pregnant with triplets, watch Third Stone From The Sun at El Mocambo..... Alt title; While My Guitar Technician Gently Weeps....
people tried to play like him no one comes close to his sound
The most boring reaction to the greatest guitar player that ever walked this earth. His soul and passion… so me one guitar player who could cover this masterpiece!!! Everyone else is second best!!
Awesome! Thank you for the kind comments and for watching!
Pop his Stevie Ray cherry
Jimi Hendrix did Little Wing, but Stevie Ray did it and Vudu Child better.. of course Jimi was playing a right hand guitar left handed.
Stevie never learned how to read sheet music
SRV is the GOAT. But I also want to give kudos to the bass; love that too.
LOVE the reaction!! :) ♥ “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 15:13
Did you just say stevie Ron veey I'm out
Bye bye
