I cried that morning. SRV just played By Detroit, I had a opportunity to meet SRV. Went backstage at Pine Knob,no one was back there cause Joe Cocker was on stage. Just then about 10 feet away a door opened and walked out Stevie, all alone ,we talked for about 15-20 minutes, hes one of the nicest guys who are in the business, no ego tripping. Several weeks later, we lost him. Yeah, he was at his best, especially being clean & sober,RIP SRV thanks for a memory of a lifetime.
back then I was dating a girl who had the biggest crush on SRV. I worked for the sound company doing sound there that day so I walked her back stage and she got to meet SRV on his way to the stage.... He couldn't have been nicer. He spent a couple of minutes talking to her while I stood off to one side listening. He was a complete gentleman and I wish I'd said hello to him but it was her moment... Thanks for posting this video. it brings it all back to me
That really is awesome and he's tearing it up I believe he was straight at this fest and he was straight when he died. What a great guy! I love all his interviews and him and Albert King playing together. That's some awesome times! Thanks a lot man what an incredible master! On the guitar we play 6 hours a day just to try to squeak a note out rest in peace I believe he was straight then. Let me know but it doesn't matter straight or not. He still One of the best top two guitarist of all time if you know where I'm coming from
That's good that he was a gentlemen. Hopefully blues players are a lot more classy than rock bands... some bands there's no way you'd want your girlfriend to meet them!!!
Not quite..Stevie Ray Vaughan would be 66 this year and that's great with me..Time does not sit still and Stevie Ray Vaughans music did not sit idle either..Stevie was a blue'sman and rock n roll and that guitar went everywhere Stevie's boots went..that electric guitar also a legend played all over the world and back again..You wanna talk about miles..Stevie and his guitar had so many miles on them they were engraved ..Phenomenal ! RIP Stevie..never to be Forgotten..literally Were all still looking and hearing you..r u with me..
I was at this show. I almost didn't go. My friend and I were Mormon converts and the concert was on "the Sabbath". My friend was, like me , a guitarist. He said to me, "We're going to see at great musician perform. There's nothing more restful than that." That was enough arm twisting for me and we went. I'm glad we did. A few months later and we would never be able to again.
WOW 😳.. I miss you Stevie. I could not wait to get released from my first break in AIT in TX, as a young black soldier in 84, to buy his cassette, the rest is history.
@@fishouttawtr Whooa, 84-87 I was in Illeshiem, Germany. I spent most of my career at Fort Hood, wouldn't change the time there for million. I was there 90-95 1/7cav, 97- 2005 2-12 Cav, finished at Bragg, Big SRV fan till this day🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
Me too! There is a large pic of this show on display in the grandstand at Jazz Fest. The pic is taken from behind SRV. I have a pic of the pic but I can’t post it here. Sorry.
I was there! Probably a few feet away from the camera man. I was 12 and with my older brother, on his shoulders and I will never forget it! This is what made love music in a different way! I could see the sweat coming off of his eyebrows and have never forgotten it! RIP SRV
I saw him at my 1st jazz fest in 1986 but I'm sure you realize you captured in video -his last performance at Jazz Fest 'cos he would be gone 4 short months later---BRAVO TO YOU DUDE FOR GIVING US THIS TREASURED MOMENT--AN ABUNDANCE OF THANKS FROM ME & MANY OTHERS
This guy left us to Early. He was one of a kind and he was sober when he died. He had so much more to give at the time of the Helicopter crash. very tragic . His music will live on forever.
While spending the night in Memphis I can't help but remember all the hundreds of bands and musicians I've seen Steve was the best! It's like I can hear him playing down at Mud Island tonight! The most memorable concerts I ever seen.
I have seen so many comments about this incredible guitarist and his playing the guitar, but, I haven't heard anyone mention Stevie's voice! Damn it's just amazing! That third song just took me away! It just took my breathe! And the sexiness ....I better hush up.
I saw his concert at Riverbend stadium a couple of months after this concert. Never forget it for my life. He was more laid back for it, stuck his cigarette on the end of his guitar. The feeling. I wish he'd survived.
@@karlklondike6400 He was warming up when we were on our way to the horse races next door. We were like "who is that???" We spent the money we had besides gas to hear him. I was 17.
Hello God is a loving father God does not take people. Think about what your saying your Father killed you . And God is a Loving Father so he would never kill you. The devil is the one who causes all the misery and death so put the blame where it belongs and start saying Devil Damn you !!
Played for a living most of my 50 years on this earth and I still have yet to hear SRV's equal! RIP my Brother! One day gonna Jam together in that great Gig in the Sky!
My God, I can't believe it's been 30 years already but looking at the bright side I will see you again if St. Peter let's me in. It would suck if St. Peter was selling tickets and you didn't have your wallet. So sad this man is gone. I love you Stevie Ray.
Stevie Ray Vaughn is THE BEST EVER..He is very well loved and very well missed and there will NEVER EVER be another Stevie Ray Vaughn..He is up is Heaven right now..We love and miss ya so much SRV !

Only three original songs out of ten. He must’ve been in a real mood for covers that day. Probably because his brother was there and wanted to play songs they both knew.
@@josearqco not necessarily. I’m sure Jimmie was familiar with all of Stevie’s songs but that doesn’t mean that he learned them all. He had his own career and was busy making his own music. I’m sure likewise, Stevie didn’t sit down and learn every single Fabulous Thunderbirds song either.
I've never saw any guitar slinger play with so much passion, so much angry and peace, strong and finess at the same time! The only and the best of all Stevie! Legends never die!
Pedro- my mom pointed it out so well: she said “ he had a smile to his playing”. She always told me “ why do you always listen to that “ ugly noise “ meaning Jimi Hendrix. 25-30 years later I know what she was talking about. Not too many musicians have a smile to their playing. I think that is what draws me in to Stevie Ray’s music Ramsay Lewis is another musician who has a smile in his playing. IMHO
I was there! I was a student at Tulane at the time. He died less than 3 months later. I've seen a lot of great shows, and this one has always stood out in my mind as an unbelievable one. Listen to that dude! It's unreal to see it again... UA-cam just resurrects everything.
I saw him in this tour in indy @ deer Creek low dough carload show 5 bucks for a car full of teenagers when he busted out a groove on his red strat the hairs on my arm stood straight up! and I ran to the stage area .and nobody plays blues like SRV God loves you deeply
I'm not gonna lie, I'm 40 years old now and I was only 13 when Stevie died and never got to see him live in person but to explain the impact he's had on my life, I often tear up when I watch him play and its mostly tears of joy and relief that I was exposed to him at an early age and even though he's not with us in body anymore his spirit definitely lives on and I feel it every time I hear or see him play. I just thank God we have the awesome footage we have so we can enjoy this blues badass until the day we die as well. My house is always a rockin with SRV. ROCK ON BROTHER STEVIE
UA-cam videos don't do it justice. Imagine him plugged simultaneously into about fifteen amps, blasting that familiar tone at you in quadrophonic sound, with about fourteen times as good tone as you hear on a recording, with every fiber of wood on that Strat flying at you like splinters.... and that doesn't even begin to cover it. I was changed by watching him play.
I got to meet him after running on stage during his encore of Voodoo chile in 87 in corpus Christi tx , after being escorted out the back stage area........we waited till he came out ........he signed our tickets, he was your the ones that ran on stage & bowed ( pre we our not worthy)
Sober...Stevie was a breath of fresh air....and quick.....His brother Jimmie and him playing together at first was one, two, BAM ! Damn Stevie was great younger and even greater in this....Tks...good beautiful blues...

Guitarists! check 26:40 when he moves to an open position, after few seconds his trills are going so fast it's blinding. heh heh Excellent video by the way,. best bass playing and recording I've heard yet. Tommy just gives so much just like Stevie.
This. Stevie, Tommy, Chris , Reese.. I’m poor. It would be hard to choose between Stevie and food. I’m old, so I'd see Stevie. He brought my girls and I and still brings me so much joy - people like Stevie just don’t come around every day. For me, it’s important to recognize when they do. I was allegedly a talented artist. With paint, not sound. Allegedly still am. But it’s a small skill - and then there is brilliance. I have decent small skilled that’s all. I’m a weak candle of that. Stevie was a bonfire. I love him.
they could have played this on big screens instead of Stones, Fleetwod Mac and Widespread Panic combined and it still smokes!!!!! I was there and it was EPIC!!!
Is that not the truth? Stevie hypnotizes folks who watch his videos. Can’t believe this wasn’t done this year when all the acts got sick-nola adored Stevie😎
Guitar playing isn't a competition. There is room for all and we can all have preferences - as in life. I just try to enjoy it all. Have fun! from all who love music in the UK and appreciate huge talent. This guy was truly amazing!
To the Fan in the Crowd.. doing all the steady close up Camera work WITH a LOT of people CLOSE Around you and the Lens... GREAT F.ing JOB... Very Impressive!!
I saw Stevie at the Aragon Ball room in Chicago aroung 85. Stood at the front of the stage and he was sweating on me. Was a game changer for me TOTALLY HOOKED miss him.........
I saw that show that day with my wife,her first time at Jazfest and New Orleans went back 15 straight times,our children grew up at Jazzfest and New Orleans.Still own our timeshares at the Quarterhouse.We smoked some mighty fine JuJu that day with our softshell Po'boy's.Thanks for the memories SRV.
True story. My cousin is telling me all about SRV's rig while they're setting it up and this old guy is kinda eavesdropping on us a little, I could tell. Finally, he asks "hey I guess you two are too young to have seen Hendrix right?" We were like "yeah, we were born in '68". He looks at us real intently for a second, turns his head back towards the stage for a second or two---takes a drag from his smoke and then shaking his long, gray hair to the side as he turns back around he says "well you're about to see him again". Truth.
You are a good writer. Truth. At the beginning of the summer of 1989 I was offered really good seats too see SRV at Great Woods in Ma. I passed only because I was going to see the Dead at Alpine Valley on that day. My thinking at the time was that SRV would be back soon, his popularity was exploding at the time. Oh well. Ironically Alpine is where SRV played his last gig. SRV's chopper crashed in the fog into what is the highest mountain in Wisconsin. That mountain is man made.
***** Yeah, it was weird for me. I still listen to the Dead almost every day. SRV about once a week. I just wish there was more of his work available. Same with Little Feat and the Allmans with Duane. Come to think of it, I still love all the same music I loved in my teens/early twenties. Listening to The Black Crowes playing Zeppelin with Page now. A friend gave me the cd a couple of weeks ago. Awesome stuff if you have not heard it.
Very niiiiiiiice. I didn't know Stevie until the Vaughan Bros. album and since been a major fan. The reason being is that there were too many others I was majorly involved with. It's unfortunate that I wasn't a part of this because out of all of the concerts I've seen in my life, I would have loved to do this!! I miss him and didn't even know him!! Thanks for posting this. :)
Stevie Ray Vaughan puts on a GREAT Performance and his guitar knows ahead of time what's coming out of it..Stevie's guitar is a legend too..And Jimmy Vaughan...love watching Stevie in Concert and Jimmy..the band is fantastic.
What a gift for his fans on planet earth to have access to. Thank you so much to whoever taped this and to posted this music. SRV was amazing! He knew...... He just knew. Why?
Why? I know this sounds silly & I'm not trying to make light of your question but Stevie could have been a misplaced Earthling who may not have known he was from another planet until close to his tragic death. He did have a fascination with UFOs...
I kick myself in the butt for never seen SRV live. I had 2 chances to see him play here and I either had something to do or blew it off for another day he would tour again. If I only knew God was taking him from us so soon I would have gone to see him. Thank you for downloading this video of him. Out of a lot of videos I've seen of him, this one makes me feel like I am really there in person and the sound is great for being over 30 years old. God Bless you SRV wherever you are.
That solo on Mary Had A Little Lamb was INCREDIBLE!!! That TONE, PHRASING, EMOTION!! And that was some of the best playing I've heard from Jimmie Vaughan........
@@JaniceArrington no video, no phone cams, lol, at coliseum, think was 6/6/90, on tour with Joe Cocker, billed as the power & the passion tour! appropriately named as well!
Thanks so much for making this available. Went to JAzzfest for the first time this year from Australia it was Amazing. To see Stevie, double trouble and his brother is such fine form at Jazzfest is incredible. I think this is one of the best live recording's of Stevie on the internet, just so razor sharp. Rip Stevie, wish you were here XX.
Dang, just found this. I was there with a bunch friends from Baton Rouge...AMAZING SHOW...brings back lots of great memories! One of the greatest ever! RIP SRV.
Pretty nice selection (with unfortunatly some cuts) for this jam with an incredible "Mary Had a Little Lamb" version !!!!! RiP...

Jimmie Vaughan is on stage and is the best guitar player that makes it comes alive when entertaining..A legend and can sing the best..Stevie Ray Vaughan doesn't ever run out of guitar playing energy..A legend and singer and always gives phenomenal entertainment to his fans..Music going out over the Airwaves and fans can hear this music miles away..Won't never be another Stevie Ray Vaughan..A professional musician doing what he does best and no one can top that..
Wow...1st two jams with Jimmie (Collins shuffle, etc) just great. Both, so different styles, Jimmies solo on the Collins jam....just perfect contrast to SRV. And, of course the best rhythm section in the world for this kind of music (including Reece W on keys)..just the best. And the way they instantly segue into "Things I used to do"...slo blues...this just instantly brings me back to seeing him live back in the day. By this time SRV was clean n sober and playing better than ever!! Thanks for sharing:)
I still can’t believe I was there and witnessed it 31 years ago when I was 30. This feels like it was yesterday. Thanks for uploading. Sadly 3 months later he was gone.
I have always enjoyed the great music of Stevie Ray, but never realized what a sharp dresser he was. He always had his shirt tucked in, a belt, you don't see that very often. Such a loss.
Just magic....words canny say... & see he even turned Jimmy....to playin his style .... Absolute epitome of a person in all walks... i am not religious - just blessed to hear all this...and the rest ...
This concert just gets increasingly greater and greater..Stevie Ray Vaughan and the band just crashes straight threw these songs and not missing a beat...Way to go..Love every minute of this concert..SENSATIONAL..even this doesnt describe it....
I cried that morning. SRV just played By Detroit, I had a opportunity to meet SRV. Went backstage at Pine Knob,no one was back there cause Joe Cocker was on stage. Just then about 10 feet away a door opened and walked out Stevie, all alone ,we talked for about 15-20 minutes, hes one of the nicest guys who are in the business, no ego tripping. Several weeks later, we lost him. Yeah, he was at his best, especially being clean & sober,RIP SRV thanks for a memory of a lifetime.
Jimmy Vaughan is on fire here as well
Yep I was thinking that too

You're a good guy for letting her have her moment lol. I would've freaked!
That really is awesome and he's tearing it up I believe he was straight at this fest and he was straight when he died. What a great guy! I love all his interviews and him and Albert King playing together. That's some awesome times! Thanks a lot man what an incredible master! On the guitar we play 6 hours a day just to try to squeak a note out rest in peace I believe he was straight then. Let me know but it doesn't matter straight or not. He still One of the best top two guitarist of all time if you know where I'm coming from
That's good that he was a gentlemen. Hopefully blues players are a lot more classy than rock bands... some bands there's no way you'd want your girlfriend to meet them!!!
Not quite..Stevie Ray Vaughan would be 66 this year and that's great with me..Time does not sit still and Stevie Ray Vaughans music did not sit idle either..Stevie was a blue'sman and rock n roll and that guitar went everywhere Stevie's boots went..that electric guitar also a legend played all over the world and back again..You wanna talk about miles..Stevie and his guitar had so many miles on them they were engraved ..Phenomenal !

There's never been a better guitar player nor will there ever be a better guitar player than Stevie Ray Vaughan!
Try jonny lang
There is no best, but Stevie was a fucking monster!
Jimi Hendrix says hi.
Django Rerinhardt smiles quietly and takes another sip of absinthe.
*all of the above ^ XD
The sky is still cryin'
I miss him too but I just dig out my ultimate srv cd and listen to both discs
It always will
Where do you think all this rain is coming from😄
Life is so fleeting. Make amends and love one another. This broke my heart. We miss you Stevie.
I love Stevie Ray Vaughan's music, and still do.
If u HAD to pick one......SRV....or....Alvin Lee???
@@rickheras5871 My pick is Stevie Ray Vaughan.
WOW 😳.. I miss you Stevie. I could not wait to get released from my first break in AIT in TX, as a young black soldier in 84, to buy his cassette, the rest is history.
Thank you for your service ❤🇺🇸
Hey bro, I was stationed at Ft Hood back in 83-84, and of course a huge fan of SRV then as now! He was pure soul!
@@fishouttawtr Whooa, 84-87 I was in Illeshiem, Germany. I spent most of my career at Fort Hood, wouldn't change the time there for million. I was there 90-95 1/7cav, 97- 2005 2-12 Cav, finished at Bragg, Big SRV fan till this day🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
I was there! I was standing in the same general area as the camera view. It was AMAZING!!! It is something that I will never forget!
the same for me in Pistoia Blues festival , it was raining ...perhaps the sensation similary that had who red Jimi Hendrix on live
You lucky person!!! I'm waiting for "Huge" jam sessions on the oyher side,when I see him,BB King,Fats,Janice, and all the rest of gang!!!
Me too! There is a large pic of this show on display in the grandstand at Jazz Fest. The pic is taken from behind SRV. I have a pic of the pic but I can’t post it here. Sorry.
I was there to. having seen him at Audubon Zoo in 87 I absolutley made this one. Glad I did....he was gone 3 months later.
AWESOME!!!!!
I was there! Probably a few feet away from the camera man. I was 12 and with my older brother, on his shoulders and I will never forget it! This is what made love music in a different way!
I could see the sweat coming off of his eyebrows and have never forgotten it!
RIP SRV
I do not care what anyone may say, if they agree, or disagree, Stevie was the best !!! !! GONE WAY TOO SOON !!!!!!
I'm with you Scott, 1000% Brother!
Still
HANDS DOWN !
Amen
Best ever.

Imagine! All the people...
While spending the night in Memphis I can't help but remember all the hundreds of bands and musicians I've seen Steve was the best! It's like I can hear him playing down at Mud Island tonight! The most memorable concerts I ever seen.

use to see this guy at Fitzgerald's in Houston Texas when he was a skinny kid from nowhere.. He rocked then and he will be remembered forever..
Austin 10 times
God the fitzgeralds bootlegs are probably my favorite. Lost your good thing now from there is probably my favorite thing ever played by them
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jimmy Vaughan..both legends..Greatest guitar players ever to walk on a STAGE..whether it be blue's or rock n roll...SENSATIONAL
I saw his concert at Riverbend stadium a couple of months after this concert. Never forget it for my life. He was more laid back for it, stuck his cigarette on the end of his guitar. The feeling. I wish he'd survived.
I was there also , front row , I tapped his boot during voodoo Chile and he dipped his guitar at me and smiled...

Excellent video by the way,. best bass playing and recording I've heard yet. Tommy just gives so much just like Stevie.
NEVER get tired of SRV!!!
he's like jimi he's endless icon unforgettable
17:15 The many live versions of Mary had a little lamb always blows me away because of his freewheeling solos... absolutely incredible.
That was another level tho. His sounds and feel were absolutely beautiful. Still listening to it today 2022
I agreee !
I swear l would give it all l've got just to see Stevie & Double Trouble play for just one night !
make that all night and I am all in
porkbelly0713 they should make a hologram of one of their shows ooooo that would be awesome.
This. Stevie, Tommy, Chris , Reese.. I’m poor. It would be hard to choose between Stevie and food. I’m old, so I'd see Stevie. He brought my girls and I and still brings me so much joy - people like Stevie just don’t come around every day. For me, it’s important to recognize when they do.
I was allegedly a talented artist. With paint, not sound. Allegedly still am. But it’s a small skill - and then there is brilliance. I have decent small skilled that’s all. I’m a weak candle of that. Stevie was a bonfire. I love him.
I would do anything too just to see Stevie and double trouble live for one's in my live 💜
then you've got to binge watch Living Waters videos so that you'll make that massive SRV concert in Heaven.
they could have played this on big screens instead of Stones, Fleetwod Mac and Widespread Panic combined and it still smokes!!!!!
I was there and it was EPIC!!!
Is that not the truth? Stevie hypnotizes folks who watch his videos. Can’t believe this wasn’t done this year when all the acts got sick-nola adored Stevie😎
RIP STEVIE,A LEGEND LOST FOREVER,BUT HIS MUSIC WILL LIVE ON
Saw him at Alpine Valley in late August 1990. One day before the helicopter crash. Absolutely awesome show. Man, time Flies by so fast.
Great to see both Vaughan brothers playing together 💞
I'm amazed at the sound quality of this, considering it's a 30 year old audience recording. Thanks for uploading it!
True dat!
it’s a soundboard bootleg recording over the video, but the soundboard bootleg sounds so amazing
omg, thank you for this. No one NO one will ever make a guitar sound that way.
They did this exactly 25 years ago today....hard to believe that much time has passed. Damn I miss him :(
Guitar playing isn't a competition. There is room for all and we can all have preferences - as in life. I just try to enjoy it all. Have fun! from all who love music in the UK and appreciate huge talent. This guy was truly amazing!
Stevie is the BEST blues guitarist ever to be known! I loved him the first time I heard him!
Me too
was at this show.jazzfest is the best festival to see the real musicians. no bullshit
I have watched SRV stuff for 40 years, yet never seen this before today. Really great live performance of a clean and sober SRV. What a show!!
To the Fan in the Crowd.. doing all the steady close up Camera work WITH a LOT of people CLOSE Around you and the Lens... GREAT F.ing JOB... Very Impressive!!
I was at this show ! I saw him 2 times at The New Orleans Jazz Fest. Love me some Stevie Ray !!!
God bless you 🙂
I saw Stevie at the Aragon Ball room in Chicago aroung 85. Stood at the front of the stage and he was sweating on me. Was a game changer for me TOTALLY HOOKED miss him.........
I got to see him play a few months before he passed. He played with pure emotions. He was all that. The band was rock solid. Great memories
Stevie's rhythm is so overlooked...
Love It Miss Him :)
You can see that he is approaching his peak as a musician; what a loss. Rock In Peace.
Proof that not only love is colorblind, so is music.
what a guy!!! that guitar!!!! ..... just love him
Awsome video !! what an amazing blues guitarist he was !, his music will live forever !! RIP Stevie
could heal the sick and resurrect jazz from the dead the intelligence to play like that? Genius level....
Thats as good as it gets folks! SR freaking Vaughn!
Stevie was so good !!!a nice fellow too!
I saw that show that day with my wife,her first time at Jazfest and New Orleans went back 15 straight times,our children grew up at Jazzfest and New Orleans.Still own our timeshares at the Quarterhouse.We smoked some mighty fine JuJu that day with our softshell Po'boy's.Thanks for the memories SRV.
Fantastic Sounds like married right Good for you 2
Voooo... dooo..child..will never go away..just like Stevie Ray Vaughan..that stage is revvvvvvved..r u with me?
StevieI wanna bring you back ,you left before your time Brother.
I was at this show! He passed three months later. Amazing!
True story. My cousin is telling me all about SRV's rig while they're setting it up and this old guy is kinda eavesdropping on us a little, I could tell. Finally, he asks "hey I guess you two are too young to have seen Hendrix right?" We were like "yeah, we were born in '68". He looks at us real intently for a second, turns his head back towards the stage for a second or two---takes a drag from his smoke and then shaking his long, gray hair to the side as he turns back around he says "well you're about to see him again". Truth.
You are a good writer. Truth. At the beginning of the summer of 1989 I was offered really good seats too see SRV at Great Woods in Ma. I passed only because I was going to see the Dead at Alpine Valley on that day. My thinking at the time was that SRV would be back soon, his popularity was exploding at the time. Oh well. Ironically Alpine is where SRV played his last gig. SRV's chopper crashed in the fog into what is the highest mountain in Wisconsin. That mountain is man made.
dennis campbell Thanks! Scout's Honor….true
***** Yeah, it was weird for me. I still listen to the Dead almost every day. SRV about once a week. I just wish there was more of his work available. Same with Little Feat and the Allmans with Duane. Come to think of it, I still love all the same music I loved in my teens/early twenties. Listening to The Black Crowes playing Zeppelin with Page now. A friend gave me the cd a couple of weeks ago. Awesome stuff if you have not heard it.
Very niiiiiiiice. I didn't know Stevie until the Vaughan Bros. album and since been a major fan. The reason being is that there were too many others I was majorly involved with. It's unfortunate that I wasn't a part of this because out of all of the concerts I've seen in my life, I would have loved to do this!! I miss him and didn't even know him!! Thanks for posting this. :)
You
Mr. Reece Wynans thank you
I was live and present for this performance!
The Jazz Fest just went off the charts!!
Stevie Ray Vaughan puts on a GREAT Performance and his guitar knows ahead of time what's coming out of it..Stevie's guitar is a legend too..And Jimmy Vaughan...love watching Stevie in Concert and Jimmy..the band is fantastic.
I Love Stevie's sharp dressing, He knows how to dress................................
What a gift for his fans on planet earth to have access to. Thank you so much to whoever taped this and to posted this music. SRV was amazing! He knew...... He just knew. Why?
Why? I know this sounds silly & I'm not trying to make light of your question but Stevie could have been a misplaced Earthling who may not have known he was from another planet until close to his tragic death. He did have a fascination with UFOs...
@Pamela Garcia: 😂
Wow! Thank you, SRV we miss you......
SENSATIONAL singer and guitar player..Jimmy Vaughan Sensational
I kick myself in the butt for never seen SRV live. I had 2 chances to see him play here and I either had something to do or blew it off for another day he would tour again. If I only knew God was taking him from us so soon I would have gone to see him. Thank you for downloading this video of him. Out of a lot of videos I've seen of him, this one makes me feel like I am really there in person and the sound is great for being over 30 years old. God Bless you SRV wherever you are.
The Vaughan Brothers at their Best, nuff said.
That solo on Mary Had A Little Lamb was INCREDIBLE!!! That TONE, PHRASING, EMOTION!! And that was some of the best playing I've heard from Jimmie Vaughan........
Ya, its just as good as the origional.
Andrew Larson he had an absolute command of that guitar. truly one of a kind.
was there, then saw him in Jackson, MS. in June of 1990, for the last time. :-( r i p
Where did he play in Jackson MS I missed it was it jubilee jam do you have a video
@@JaniceArrington maybe not 6th but I'm sure was same week of the 90 jazzfest
@@JaniceArrington no video, no phone cams, lol, at coliseum, think was 6/6/90, on tour with Joe Cocker, billed as the power & the passion tour! appropriately named as well!
Stevie Ray Vaughan on stage and that guitar is swingin..How Sweet it is..terrific band..Terrific
Happily, I was right there, stage right. Good show. He also played another on the Riverboat. Awesome, as well.
Thanks so much for making this available. Went to JAzzfest for the first time this year from Australia it was Amazing. To see Stevie, double trouble and his brother is such fine form at Jazzfest is incredible. I think this is one of the best live recording's of Stevie on the internet, just so razor sharp. Rip Stevie, wish you were here XX.

If I pass before my wife ...she knows to find me where the music is.
Absolutely amazing band, brothers with soul...
The dude was doing three things starting out . Rhythm , lead , fills . He was a one man band . Incredible talent !
Jimmie Vaughan is on stage and is the best guitar player that makes it comes alive when entertaining..A legend and can sing the best..Stevie Ray Vaughan doesn't ever run out of guitar playing energy..A legend and singer and always gives phenomenal entertainment to his fans..Music going out over the Airwaves and fans can hear this music miles away..Won't never be another Stevie Ray Vaughan..A professional musician doing what he does best and no one can top that..
25 years gone...jesus. Still finding awe-inspiring new stuff today. Thanks to all who post these rare pics and recordings. RIPSRV
Even on my crappy laptop speakers this sounds amazing. Wish they would put it on DVD.
Wow...1st two jams with Jimmie (Collins shuffle, etc) just great. Both, so different styles, Jimmies solo on the Collins jam....just perfect contrast to SRV. And, of course the best rhythm section in the world for this kind of music (including Reece W on keys)..just the best.
And the way they instantly segue into "Things I used to do"...slo blues...this just instantly brings me back to seeing him live back in the day. By this time SRV was clean n sober and playing better than ever!! Thanks for sharing:)
HALL OF FAMER! I love this guy forever! Legend!
I still can’t believe I was there and witnessed it 31 years ago when I was 30. This feels like it was yesterday. Thanks for uploading.
Sadly 3 months later he was gone.
I have always enjoyed the great music of Stevie Ray, but never realized what a sharp dresser he was. He always had his shirt tucked in, a belt, you don't see that very often. Such a loss.
Just magic....words canny say... & see he even turned Jimmy....to playin his style ....
Absolute epitome of a person in all walks... i am not religious - just blessed to hear all this...and the rest ...
This concert just gets increasingly greater and greater..Stevie Ray Vaughan and the band just crashes straight threw these songs and not missing a beat...Way to go..Love every minute of this concert..SENSATIONAL..even this doesnt describe it....
