Was Stevie Ray Vaughan as good as they say he is? Is he _BETTER_ than Steve Vai?
we blues fans accept Vai for what he is, but obviously, SRV is our man. a blues shredder.
It’s not good to think of music in terms of who is best. Listen with your own ears and heart, decide what speaks most to you.
I am going with the guy that all the masters have payed their respects to, so many have said the music just flowed from his fingers tips, the the guitar was another language and he knew it fluently, or as Buddy Guy said we all know what we know ! But he knows everything we all know ! And as far as Stevie Vai he's awesome but he could be and has been schooled by Dan Huff ! Huff has made Vai look good ! And so many other masters.
totally different kind of style and genre. Both great and should not be compared.
In a nutshell: SRV had deep soul and feeling. Vai has technique.
I cried the day I heard about crash. I love that guy like he was my own brother. Rip Stevie.
I still cry.
Bought my 1st elwctric guitar. I was 11 rip blues king!!
So did I, and I remember right where I was when I heard it, Myrtle Beach, SC. Sad Day...
I remember being at Dead shows at Alpine Valley many years prior to SRV helicopter crash, looking at that ungodly man made ski slope and thinking something isn't right with that....
No one like SRV.
One of the few to ever go into rehab, emerge sober and STAY sober. Chris Cornell said, " Actually, I can't think of anyone else but Stevie that was able to do that." Stevie the guitarist, the world knows, Stevie the man, his true fans know!
Strong, talented, kind, empathetic, a great humanitarian and more was Stevie.
RIP. Thanks for all the Love you passed our way. ❤️
Eric clapton, with a relapse but still sober.
At 1:36:43, You see Jimmy behind Stevie Ray both playing on the same Double Neck guitar. I saw Stevie Ray every time he played in NY. One show I'll never forget was at The Pier in NY City, right next to The Intrepid WW2 Ship. Jimmy's band opened the Show, and then Stevie Ray came out with Double Trouble. About halfway into the Show, Stevie says "We're just gonna take a break for a quick minute", and as they walked off, a Roadie walked in with a folding chair that he set up center stage.
Stevie Ray comes walking out with a Double Neck guitar, sits down, and just starts tearing it up. About 5 minutes into this amazing jam, Jimmy walks out in stage, steps up lookin at Stevie from his left, the looks at the Audience, walks to the other side, looks at the Audience again and points at Stevie, kinda like saying "Do you see how good my brother is ???"... Then he walks behind Stevie, leans over him, and starts jamming on the other neck of the guitar. It was just one of those epic moments in an already incredible Show that you never forget. The roar from the crowd could be heard across the water in New Jersey. I just can't believe it's been almost 40 years since I saw that Show. I'm a huge Clapton fan, seen him every time he's been near NY City since the late 70s. There were only TWO guitarists that Clapton admitted being "intimidated" by. One was Jimmy Hendrix, the other was Stevie Ray. Clapton used to say about Stevie, that it was like he was a Pure Conduit, like the guitar was plugged into his Soul. To get that kind of compliment from "God", Eric Clapton, man you just had to see Stevie Ray play. He really was absolutely UNREAL. Imagine if Hendrix never passed away so young, and they both hit the Stage together, which happens so much at Clapton's Crossroads Tours. That would be a sight to see. We lost Stevie Ray WAY too soon. There was SO much more he had to do
I just feel incredibly privileged to have seen him all those times. ✌️
With Stevie there is never, ever the sense that his playing is for himself or to show off - for self adulation in any way whatsoever. Rather it was always a way to show and give his love to us, even during those lowest points when he struggled with his addiction demons. He had a big heart and it always came through. That's the feeling I get. always.
That's What Stevie Put Out There ....He Was A Special Artist & A Special Man
Good description of it
That night, I went home, plugged in my guitar and played the best and longest I could in his honor. The tears were flowing. My wife had stopped what she was doing and sat and listened. It was a solemn sobering evening. (Through the years, new players ask what guitar, what gear do I need to get SRV's sound? I always reply, "First, you need to be SRV. Strats, strings, amps and speakers barely scratch the surface. Secondly, you have to realize you are not worthy to wipe his sweat from the stage floor.)
Stevie would be so humbled by the amount of influence he had on guitar players all over the world. I seriously doubt he would have that attitude about playing his music
@@flanneldaddy5220Exactly
It was really nice too see Janna doing an interview in this Documentary, never seen her do an interview, nice to hear her side of the story, still really beautiful, bet she still misses Stevie, what could've been 😢
Janna acknowledged Stevie asked her many times to marry him, but she kept stalling. When she finally agreed, she hurt him by refusing to set a date. Janna blamed it on busy schedules, but Stevie would have eagerly accommodated her. She shifted her focus off of him and onto her modeling career by leaving their home to move into the apartment he leased for her in NY. He remained in Dallas to attend daily meetings at the Aquarius Chapter of AA. This allowed him to be close to his mother, as well as conveniently located near Dallas Sound Lab studios. She claimed the apartment was leased to benefit both of them, but considering his disdain for being alone, it was undoubtedly a source of friction and she acknowledged they had fights. In an interview Stevie stated he was “not well” and admitted it was a daily challenge to remain sober. He carried a high risk for relapse, but Janna was comfortable leaving him to his own devices. After his death, Martha and Jimmie extended the lease on the apartment for another year, but she filed an unsuccessful lawsuit to collect more from his estate. Bottom line: he was far more devoted to her, than she was to him.
Funny how everyone thought Stevie was finished during his dark days on rehab and a couple of unsuccessful albums , In Step was his answer.
SRV was one of a kind. I don't know of anyone that could make you feel what he was playing the way he did.
🙏GONE TOO SOON - GONE TOO LONG😭 THIRTY-TWO YEARS THIS DAY - AUGUST 27, 2022...To Say You Are MISSED, Stevie, Does Not Express The DEEP Loss Of Your Gifts, Your Presence, Your Special Spirit & Your Soul In This World! The Impact You Had On Countless Lives All Over The World, Including This One, With Your Unique Musical Talents, Your Generous Loving Nature, Your Endless Smile, Your Bottomless Compassion For Your Fellow Human Beings - Especially For Your Fellow Addicts Who Still Struggle & Suffer With Drug & Alcohol Addiction - Changed This World In A Meaningful Way That HAS Not Been & WILL Not Be Forgotten! I Thank You For How You Impacted MY Life & Pray That God Bless You As You Served Him So Well🙏 SOUL💞SOUL💗😘 My Brother In Recovery✝️
He was at his peak, looking great, strong! I got clean and sober April of 86 myself so we got clean at the same time so I felt a connection to Stevie!
It’s almost impossible to watch this without tears flooding my eyes and heart.
The best thang that ever came out of TX is SRV. Rip Stevie, the guitarist ever!
Buddy Holly, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earl etc etc etc etc....
@joeshoe6184 and you just proved his point. Although not sure how Stone Cold Steve Austin would feel about that statement, I agree SRV is by far the best
I can't imagine what great music could have been. One of the saddest days of my life, I loved him so much, he was my absolute favorite. I'm an artist & sketched him that night. Saw him in concert many times. Rip Stevie
Erm, what do you mean by _"could have been"?!_
@@Faladaena obviously the music srv would have continued to make if he hadn’t died
Yep! At the top of his game and much good music left to give us. I’m a big Skynyrd fan and feel that way too about what we lost the same sad and tragic way, and what could have been in their future that got cut short. I’m just glad we got what we did in the end to enjoy, and I applaud little brother Johnny for stepping up and keeping his brother’s music alive.
Stevie was in a class of his own... there is no comparison!
Gone too soon is an understatement here. SRV took the blues, soul, and rock music of the past and made something new. Few people have done that in the history of music. When you hear people talk about the “SRV sound” they are describing a style of music. To say he was a blues artist or a rock artist is too confining. I never got to see him live although I followed his career closely and have listened to his music for hours upon hours. I cried the day he died and was so moved by it……someone I didn’t even know. His first three albums were great but In Step was a revelation. He was clean and sober and just a musical juggernaut. In this mode no one could touch him, he was so good. His loss is still felt but the music is a gift to us that lives forever. Fly on SRV……we will see you again someday. Gone but never forgotten!
I've listened to metal my whole life, introduced to SRV in mid 80's and said hands down the greatest guitar player in history.
After prince
I doubt he had any idea how much he'd be missed.
I don't know many 35 year olds that even consider that question.
I doubt he could even believe it when he died. I believe that he lives through his music, and through all the people who listen and love it. They all created music that reached a different level. It was a special time and it is timeless. So many people were involved. It was Austin, old Austin, a family of people that looked out for each other. It was about the music, the art,and the way of life.
It was about the love.
I Remember Watching Stevie Ray Vaughn in Austin Texas. A five dollar cover charge to get in. He was a great musician, way before he made it Big, RIP!
Same here my fellow Austinite. Saw him numerous times when I lived in Austin 79-87. We may have been at the same show. Ever see him at Antone's?
Got to see him on 7/3/90 at a small fairgrounds in Vermont. Stood in front of the speaker stack until Voodoo Chile when I just walked over right in front of him and just took it in. The man was Greatness
RIP...stevie...Genius...forever love.
One of the best singers I have ever heard.
I had the greatest thrill of seeing him play at Red Rocks, Denver,CO. Behind the red rock backdrop to stage, were Denver lights & a long low row of storm clouds, spider lightning flashes and a full moon rising above the clouds!!! And Stevie was playing "Lennie" ....I thought I'd died and gone to heaven!!! So magical!!! He died not long after that show. So miss him 💖💖💖
Wow another great musician gone but not forgotten
I hate to say this, when I heard of his death on the radio that morning on my way 2 work & they said they weren't sure if it was SRV or Clapton, I was really hoping it was Clapton & not SRV bcuz he was so young & just got his life together & was doing so well & and so much more to give. Love you SRV
建议用EC的命换SRV复活
me too
Don't mess with Texas, Stevie is the greatest that's ever been :p
Wow, such a great documentary on Stevie Ray Vaughan!! Y’all even have Janna on here talking about their relationship!! First for me to hear her speak! Bravo!!
I named two of my sons after the man STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN!!
Rip SRV🙏🏼
This is the first time I've seen her do an interview about him. Wow, nice!!

@user-qn1qc9bz7w good information thanks, I've heard about their fights before, and I think he would write her letters telling her that why she didn't love him like he loved her almost like begging, I could be wrong, but it was a rocky relationship nonetheless, poor Stevie, I think she was too young for him, I think the relationship would've ended eventually, maybe if he would've lived it would've been a nasty divorce who knows right
@@Anthony-qb2gr She and Stevie were in different life stages, and she was not ready to settle down - or at least not settle down with HIM. But she had no qualms accepting his financial assistance toward her modeling career. She eventually married a man who was less than 1 year older than she was.
Don't like people's interpretations and summarizes of other people's lives. Listen to Stevies interviews and music and you will have your own
My younger brother and I were there that fateful night, and SRV played his a$$ off! He outperformed everyone, including Clapton. It was a great concert for blues aficionados! The beauty of his transition is that he got his house in order and he went out on top!
I really like the album Soul to Soul I thinks its under-rated
Stevie Ray, we miss you on this almost, the 32nd anniversary of your passing.
R.I.P. Stevie. We miss you and your music.
Another casualty of the 1980s music business. Rip SRV
Miss him so much.
FANTASTIC AND AMAZING!! "AMPLIFIED" WORKS REALLY BRIGHT IN THE SHADOWS!
At the time, I was such a guitarhead, that I hated it when SRV added keyboard. Now I like it. 🙂
Rhythmic smooth funky soulful percussive and what ever else I forget to mention. Rare Talent missed so much
Also remembering those we did not know. about the lives of those who tragically. died with him. Thank you.
Thank you for the upload😃
If only he was still alive, he would be the best. So sad for this tragedy of a legend. I will always remember SRV and forever play his music.
Blues never lost respect. I hear that shit all the time. It just needed to be pushed to the hilt with a loud guitar and a newer sound. Some of the old blues is truly wonderful with open tunings, old time radio sounds and lyrics mumbled into a poor microphone. Zeppelin did the same thing, took old blues tunes and cranked them up with some other modifications.
The early death of Stevie Ray Vaughan pisses me off to no end. Helicopter in some fog. I know hindsight is always 20/20 but damn...
17:46-"I don't see the point..." I'm sorry but that is a truly ignorant, blasphemous, and unbelievably shallow thing to say. He essentially fixed that tune much in the same way Hendrix himself fixed Bob Dylan's "watchtower." That tune rocks hard. Every single show he played that got him rousing applause. Covering a tune that "signature" takes balls as well as talent. He had both. The point, bud, was he had something to bring to that tune and he KNEW that.
Throughout the whole documentary that guy comes across as a complete tool. Agree with your comments on Voodoo Chile.
Replying to Jamie.....hey somebody has to have the thankless job of doing the narrative even if you don't have done your homework
"Change it"will always be one of my favorite songs of Stevie's 😊 We are still missing you Stevie, RIP
@@CleanNOTSerene Agreed-with you and Noya. Nigel is getting in the way and not in a good way.
That's why music critics are such pains in the ass on music docs. They feel they have to analyze something from a critical standpoint, but many of them don't have the technical know-how to properly analyze a guitar player. The idea was to take the original and add something to it. Stevie did that and then some. For another take on "Voodoo Chile" watch the concert film Lightning in a Bottle and hear singer Angelique Kidjo's version. Won't make you forget Hendrix's version or Stevie's either, but it's damn good.
We all love stevie
🎸💙🎶‼️ I am loving April and Stevie Ray. You must watch Riveria Paradise from Austin City Limits 1989. It is a song Stevie composed after his own rehab and recovery and dedicates it to all those out that there that are still suffering in any way. It is the most gorgeous jazz infused healing music I've ever heard.
The greatest guitarist ever
Good God, I would ABSOLUTELY clean up for her!! Bless his amazing heart
I think it bears mentioning that she was 16 when they got together, he was double her age. That's not only creepy, it's also illegal in this country.
I came late to hear and appreciate the great Stevie Ray Vaughan. Now... I believe he is definitely among the best guitarists of all time, and close to the top of the list, at that. Sad that he had gotten his life back together, only to die way too early.

Always loved his music. Long time ago I got a tattoo of his guitar on my back with a banner that says the road goes on forever, as I was a traveler for work all my life, and a nomad in general. Thanks for the great documentary.
RIP SRV, we love ya!
Touring with the Moody Blues!! Can you imagine having to sit through the Moody Blues Lunesta song set after SRV played like he was breaking out of jail?? I don't think I could do it.
Still miss him left a hole in his craft, dynamite blueman gifted always had more than since he was. young. Innovative. Another gone too soon..
Not enough can be said about the brilliance and ability of SRV, The Greatest Ever!!... SRV and Randy Rhoads are the two Zenith guitar legends. Gone too soon for sure but their marks remain immortal. The spirit of music chose them and spoke through them as a vessel for the music spirit. For me, nobody makes me want to pick up my guitar more than SRV. Unrivaled passion and technique, sound and tone coming from his hands. All the while, this is the era of shred. The Rhoads, Van Halen, Lynch, Jake Lee, Malmsteen and the list goes on. Even Satriani was on the unplugged set but nobody was as massive and passionate as Stevie. With all those shredders burning up the scene, Stevie came along with something that was considered dead. But he resituated it and breathed the life and spirit of that music back into it because he was destined to do so, music chose him. If he were still around he would be able to play anything because he was that great and it would have blossomed an amazing creation of whatever he wanted to do. Randy Rhoads the same way but when it comes down to who had the most passion and how Stevie had the "touch". Thank you SRV, you inspire me to connect with my guitars and instruments and always remain in love with creating my music .....
I was kinda disagreeing with the english dude a bit, but at the very end he cane and completely redeemed himself with that life by the drop shout out!! Then comparing it to redemption song made me even happier!!😁😁 Life by the drop was always one of my very favorite songs!! Love you stevie!!🤟🤟
Reese aged well
I cannot say better than what the other comments habe said, but Stevie's power is transendent. We miss you and we all hope to see you, once we pass the veil.
I still admire Stevie Ray Vaughan Music and he and Jimmie Vaughan are the BLUES BROTHERS to me !!! ......... Willie G. 😎
Yea that remains one of the saddest day's...I remember trying to make everyone understand how special this dude was....I so blessed I knew about him....rest in peace Stevie, you made my life better
did I miss the mention that he won a Grammy w/ 'Little Wing' an instrumental, which correct me if I'm wrong, nobody else, even Jimi tried?
Blatantly underrated as "one of the best" in my opinion. I'm not a musician but a normal Blues, Rock lover and personally I think SRV was The Best or as used in mma today, The GOAT! And although may be considered as blasphemy (even by myself), I like more the Voodoo Child of SRV then of Jimmi. For me just sounds much better I don't know why. And I'm sure that was not any "competition made" stuff, but respectfully honoring the Monster before him, for that I love this guy so much, he was so humble in front of his Masters. Greetings from Spain!
descent documentary. Would appreciate it if y'all could get the title and description correct, "helicopter crash in 1989" ?? Second, would have liked to hear more from his fiancé, someone who knew the intimate side of Stevie. But thank you for posting this vid, much appreciated.
Riveria Paradise mannnnnn
Thanks for this. Top knotch
I had seen the Austen City Limits show on tv. That was my first introduction to this great artist. What a gift he gave to the world at the expense of his own humanity and yet, he shared his story in the hope of helping others to get sober and enjoy life.
Where you from?
I was listening to Iron Maiden Powerslave in my room & my dad came in & said you gotta see this guy play gtr on TV it was Austin City Limits on PBS & Stevie started playing Voodoo child it blew my mind I went that weekend & bought Texas Flood it change my life as a musician.
I'm proud enough to have seen him
Otis Rush opened. For him and what a night it was . Another year he died
Love SRV🎸
one day at a time.
Stevie Ray Vaughan and my most favorite song: Tin Pan Alley however, it ties with Couldn't Stand the Weather . This question should be our favorites of his music. There's so many.
This is an effin' great doc - but every time we cut to that Nigel Williamson guy, it's like being back in school - now we all have to analyse what Stevie does. UGH!!!
Great video.
Very good doc!
He had a great sound and preserver’s when others wouldn’t ❤❤❤❤too soon gone ❤
I saw him in denmark in 88. Great show!!
I can totally relate with the substance abuse I've had bouts with those demons Getting high off hard-core drugs.The whole pressure metaphor spoke volumes
SRV's fashion sensibilities were shaped by his bandmate in several bands - bassist Keith Ferguson. Ferguson played in several bands with Stevie before he became famous with the rhythm section "Double Trouble" (a nick name originally for the female vocalist - if I remember correctly, kept for the rhythm section), and gradually Stevie adopted his unique fashion sensibilities. Keith also played in bands with Jimmy Vaughan, and was first choice of Billy Gibbons for ZZ Top, but he recommended Dusty Hill since he was stuck in California with his new love interest. Not taking that gig was the worst mistake he ever made, because it would have solved his money problems - Dusty Hill sent him a picture of himself covered in money saying "thank you" for getting him the gig! I read that in the excellent book: "Keith Ferguson, Texas Blues Bass". Everybody loved Keith Ferguson, women and men, and when he died in the hospital from liver failure after a life of addiction, he was surrounded by friends - mostly musicians. Unlike SRV, Keith never could get clean, and his disease of addiction eventually killed him. SRV almost died from his addiction, but thank God he survived, and went on to make some of the best music ever after getting clean: "In Step" was released while I was going through rehab myself, and I still love songs on that recording about recovery. I was fortunate to see Stevie Ray Vaughan twice in Orange County, at the Golden Bear in the early 1980's, and Costa Mesa "Pacific" Ampitheater for the "Benson and Hedges Blues Festival", with BB King, and several other excellent acts. I'll never forget his encore, just after sunset when the lights had been turned on, sitting on a stool on stage with a spotlight on him playing Riviera Paradise. He was dead a few months later, RIP SRV - you will never be forgotten, and will live-on through your music.
Stevie used to dump a 1/2 g of Columbias finest in his coffee just too get started. Those were the days.😆
He died in 1990 not 1989.......I can't believe you guys screwed up a date like that!
Time is showing SRV is the biggest influence between young guitarrists who want to play blues/rock. More influential than BB King, Albert King, Albert Collins, Buddy Guy or even Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix. You realize that when you see unknown guitarrists all over the world doing covers of "Pride and joy", "Scuttle buttin'", "Texas flood", etc, etc, etc. Stevie became the biggest icon of the genre and he is now the new god of blues.
Soul to Soul was great, nuts...
🎸 HEAR STEVIES' ENTIRE STORY OF ADDICTION & ROAD TO RECOVERY - SPOKEN BY STEVIE HIMSELF & RECORD TO BE SHARED, FROM HIS AA MEETING - JANUARY 1, 1990 - JUST MONTHS BEFORE HIS TRAGIC DEATH....IT IS WORTH HEARING & IS ALSO AVAILABLE TO FIND ON YOU TUBE
That's the Music Man amp he played at Spring Break in Buffalo in the early '80's. Those things are nice amps, ballsy and durable.
Rip.
Heli crashed where we used to ski...
Love that texas longhorn.
To get recovery and die in a helicopter so sad, rory Gallagher too both amazing blues guitarists im in recovery play blues im a unknown for now
Bowie helped put him on the map. Shame he never did that tour in 1983 with him.
His album had just been released, Texas Flood. Bowie decided to use only Stevie. He had a choice to make...promote Bowie or stay with his bandmates and promote their album.
Stevie'ss guitar on Let's Dance set it apart from Bowies's previous releases. It went on to number one crossing over into the US as a hit as well. The song did better than any song ever recorded by Bowie. IMO, I don't think there's any shame in the choice he made.
@@georgiagirl1961 of course not. Bowie respected his decision. One of the best guitarists bowie has had.
Have you listened to the serious moonlight rehearsals…. Enough said.
@@markedwards5305 yup absolutely brilliant!!
You have the date wrong of his death it wasn't 89 it was 1990.
Seen him twice life. In The Netherlands and in Belgium, front row. Was a shock when we heard he was killed.
The "pilot error" was the most bone headed kind. "CFIT" Controled flight into terrain, at less than a thousand feet! All the "pilot" had to do was get some altitude, before flying into a fog bank, and the bunny slope behind it!
Breaks my heart every time I think of it!
Only God has the reason for this…
The criticism of the Soul to Soul and Live Alive albums on this documentary is too much … at his worst Stevie was still an unparalleled virtuoso. “An embarrassment,” really ? Come on, these were fantastic albums - particularly Soul to Soul. Say What, Change It, and Come On, Pt. III were some of the band’s best work IMO.
❤❤❤
Rip SRV
-x(5/7/24)…done thank you excellent
Roy Buchanan is another amazing guitarist like Stevie but sadly he never had the exposure he so richly deserved whilst he was alive. John Lennon was impressed enough in the studio to wait hours to jam with him but Roy was so into his playing that it had obviously gone to the back of his mind.
I call them the BLUES BROTHERS !!! .......... Willie G . 😎
@16:40 Why did the band chose to record Testify?
Umm..Maybe they needed a song, maybe they liked the song so maybe they decided to recorded their own version of the song, why would anyone outside of the bands management care. I can assure you that the Isley bros estate was very happy to see the song writing royalty checks from the re-recording of this song.
Stevie Ray Vaughan passed away on 8-27-1990! HE DID NOT DIE in 1989 like your video’s description states. You may want to edit that. Other than that I enjoyed the video.
Peter Green all day long the best
What I hear is a bunch of manipulation of Stevie by a bunch of rich guys, changing him, controlling him. And to this day patting themselves on the back!
🤘🏻
1:07:18 (Utterly) Off-Topic: Identical twins will *never* fail to amaze and puzzle me, it's such a bizarre thing to see (btw, it took two years before I found out, last month, that my dentist is actually running the practice together with her twin sister).
An identical twin is a curious thing...
Reese Wynans has a manner of speech remarkably similar to Norm MacDonald (RIP).
Dont get me wrong I like some blues music but i feel like its so 1 dimensional with the same beat on everything similar to old country songs and how they all used those similar basslines, guitar fills. Just different words, im much more into rock n roll, metal with different types of guitar solos and different sounding riffs...but admittedly this is someone from the outside looking in because that's not my go to genre...just like i have respect for the older rock bands from the 60s and early 70s where it had alot more to do with guitar chords instead of single string riffs but i can definitely appreciate the progression of guitar styles from the 60s and onward. And the stories about SRV fingers being soo busted up from playing so much with thick gauge strings I can respect that! And growing up I would hear his name being brought up when talking about "greatest guitar players" but not really my style is all.
First of all Stevie Ray Vaughan died way too young and way too soon in his career that being said I used to think that no one would ever compare to Stevie Ray Vaughan and then I heard Joe bonamassa for the first time and it blew my mind but honestly I can say that to my knowledge he is the only person I've ever heard who even comes close to Stevie Ray Vaughan
