  • Official Video for "Pride and Joy (Live at Montreux 1982)" by Stevie Ray Vaughan
    Stevie Ray Vaughan was a legendary blues guitarist and singer from Texas, known for his soulful playing and powerful vocals. He rose to fame in the 1980s with hits like "Pride and Joy", "Texas Flood", and "The Sky is Crying", which showcased his incredible guitar skills and deep love for the blues. Vaughan collaborated with many other artists throughout his career, including David Bowie (on the song "Let's Dance"), blues icon B.B. King (on the album "In Session") and his brother Jimmie Vaughan (on their “family Style” album). He was also heavily influenced by other blues legends like Albert King, Freddie King, and Jimi Hendrix, whose playing styles he incorporated into his own unique sound.

      Well, USUALLY his axe had 6 strings ... except when he was bending his notes with so much force, feeling, and fervor that they wore out and broke! Learned through other commenters that SRV used much heavier gauge strings -- "cables"? -- than "regular" guitar strings; he must have had very strong fingers, hands, and wrists.

It's called NOSTALGIA and Nostalgia always colors it's glasses with roses. Only through Nostalgia do they become "GODS". Let's just enjoy the great music from these people without all the BS.

Look you are completely entitled to your own opinion, if you thing that Randy Rhoads is the greatest of all time then that's great good for you. I can respect that, but for me SRV is the best guitarist of all time. That is my opinion, plus these guys play two completely different types of music. So it's really hard to even compare. I'm a blues guy, and naturally I think SRV is the best blues guitarist and the best guitarist in general. If you disagree with that then that's alright, no need to make it personal bud. So let's not say that it's ABSOLUTLEY 100% OBJECTIVE that Rhoads is the best guitarist of all time. Because it's all subjective, so don't be childish now alright. We can both have different favorite guitarist without telling people that they can die

      fanboy, they are both pretty fucking awesome at what they do, but you can't even compare them, their music is 2 different languages. and its all matter of prefference and personal opinion, for me SRV wipes floor with randy or any metal guiarist, but again thats my opinion because i prefer blues over metal anytime.

      And I was doing exactly that back in May of '89 during the 'In Step' tour. Dead center front row at the Starlight Bowl in Balboa Park, San Diego. There was an almost continuous heavy wind blowing into the crowd from the stage and we couldn't figure out where the source of it was coming from. In between songs it would let up, but when he continued playing it would start to gain strength again. This happened throughout the show. A few of the times that he looked at us we pantomimed to him where the heavy wind was coming from. He finally came up to us between songs and asked us what the hell were we trying to convey, but he didn't know either and then winked with a big ass smile and started up again with the next song. By the end of the show we were convinced that the source of the wind was coming from the power of Stevie's guitar playing. Sounds crazy, but what else could it have been? It seemed to be coming directly from him and there was nothing else around that would've explained it. What was he trying to convey to us with that wink and smile?
      It was truly weird, but what a performance he put on that night.

Equally all great players are just gonna move straight on from it. I'm sure Stevie noticed that dead note but it didn't affect even the next note of the solo. Not particularly in this instance but some mistakes even add something unique that can't be recreated the next time around. That's the beauty of playing live I guess.

      I've heard that he actually progressively used less thicker string during his career. At one point he used 13s but i don't think it lasted much, because his guitar tech said he would eventually hurt himself. It's also interesting to know that when beginning a tour he would use 10/11 and as he built up more and more energy during the tour he would increase string gauge.
      He had incredibly strong hands but it's a myth that he always used 13s.

    For those of you who don’t play guitar, the little bit from roughly 1:47 - 2:02 ; even though he’s just playing little blues licks that are pretty common, I don’t think even 10% of metal band shredders could move so deftly over the fret board. And what REALLY blew my mind is how at 2:46, he not only finished the lick while heading back to the mic, but he added flourish to it without even a glance! This man commanded the guitar. I grew up hearing this song and always liked it , but I never looked into him until tonight. Rolling Stone placing Kurt Cobain and Jimi Hendrix above this guy is pandering nonsense.

    SRV didn't "play" the guitar, the guitar just played. Clapton called him an open channel. But really,
    Stevie Ray Vaughan spoke strings and frets better than he spoke English. He could convey thought and emotion better than any spoken language.
    He could put you in the state of mind he wanted you to be, the exact same point in place, in time that he was.

    Remembering the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughn - He should have turned 60 years young today. RIP.

    My mom went to see Stevie in many different bar gigs in Texas when she was my age. (22.) she says when she heard he had passed over the radio she pulled over and start weeping. She says Stevie was their guy and they were proud of how far he had come.

    His guitar playing was of legend...
    His voice though...
    It's perfection.

    SRV sounded just like SRV. That's what I loved about him. He never sounded like anyone else, and he had the greatest style ever.
