Nothing racial here but often you don't have brothers that can play rock guitar and I tell you this guy and Guitar Shorty and seriously get with it. Amazing and versatile musician!
Anybody that don't like this, well just go on back and listen to that childish kidding crap clown sounds, called rap, cause they ain't got no soul, and don't have a clue, what art is.
IThis is good but I don’t hear life in it. Technology, skill, that’s great but is not the blues. Im here because of an SRV interview. Perhaps his last. What a loss. I'm trying to find anyone as good and have not made it. Look at Albert King’s face while jamming. It’s called joy. Just the way I feel every time I hear a single note from SRV. This is talent. SRV is (was, damn it) talent glistening with art. It’s fascinating to learn about who influenced him besides. Jimmy. A kicking guitarist - Stevie had... not sure what to call it. Stevie was blues. And his guitar. It’s not complicated. The man changed my life.
You do realise Buddy Guy influenced Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Jeff Beck, Gary Clark Jr., John Mayer and even Stevie Ray Vaughan? If you are blinkered, you won't ever find anybody who is as good as SRV! But in my opinion, there are many people who are just as good as SRV, for example B.B. King and Buddy Guy! Just broaden your mind, and you will realise, I'm not wrong! Listen to their music! There is a reason why B.B. is called the King of the blues and not Stevie, and why Buddy influenced so many players. If you disagree with what I just said, it's fine, but please delve more into the genre of the blues. There is so much to discover, including Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Son House, Howling Wolf, B.B. King, Freddie King, Skip James, Lightnin' Hopkins, Elmore James, John Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton, Albert Collins, Robert Cray, Jonny Lang, and Buddy Guy, obviously. They all have their unique tone and playing, but that doesn't mean, they aren't as good as SRV! Don't get me wrong, I love Stevie, but his playing is basically a mixure of the style of Albert King and Jimi Hendrix (who stole many of Buddy Guy's lick by the way), there isn't much orginality there. Yes, I do realise he is the only shredder who plays with feeling and his playing is, on top of that, incredibly clean, but there are so many other players who are also playing with their soul. I'm actually of the opinion, SRV is an inferior player to B.B. King, Freddie King Albert King, Buddy Guy, Son House, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Lightnin' Hopkins, Albert Collins and Hubert Sumlin, as they all sound like themselves and didn't rip off someone else's to develop their style!
You’re right. To be fair, my comment was a genuine, real-time reaction to one recording (this one) without any pause for being clever or appropriate. It was my initial reaction. Nothing more, nothing less. But I have been biased. And 8 should expand. I’ve seen Mister B - B King more times than I can count on my hands - small local venues. . Loved Shake ‘Em Up (on French horn, I believe). It hurt when he had to perform his whole set sitting down. I had the Albert King SRV jam CD for years - never played it. I just found the tracks on RUclips - damn - Albert King is/was amazing. All those, as you say who influenced SRV (plus Jimmy, who wasn’t a bad player by any stretch) are all amazing - except one guy I don’t know - but am eager to look up). I’m just one person with one opinion. I truly appreciate your comment and criticism. I learn from comments like yours. A few years ago, I found near equivalent performances of Voodoo Child SRV/Hendrix. I thought one was better. SRV becomes one with his guitar - he’s not a guy playing guitar extremely well. He’s beyond that. I can’t explain it. I’ve never seen that in anyone else - despite skill and art among the greats, many of whom you mention. The look on other’s faces when the jammed with him said a lot, too. But just watching him - I hear one or two notes and I can’t stop for at least an hour. I do appreciate others and I’ve seen a few you listed live - and they’re amazing. I love Albert King. I’ve seen John Lee Hooker- he sat near me for a BB King set in a small local venue. I love Blind Lemon - there are so many. Just, for me, SRV is magic. I’m just one opinion, so it doesn’t really matter. I really appreciate your comment and constructive criticism. I learn from comments like yours. As I said, I am biased, but that doesn’t mean I can’t expand. I would probably love Buddy Guy if I heard more songs (which im going to do) - this one hit me wrong - I just reacted truthfully. I don’t love e dry SRV song either (well... he’s still amazing when the song isn’t the best). My ex was into Albert, BB, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, SRV, Greg Allman, Clapton, I can’t recall - he had a well educated, well rounded experience. He even saw SRV and he went to every BB appearance I did. He’d play all these guys, but one of them made me stop - always. Stevie. I dare anyone to ignore “”Pride and Joy” if it begins to play in one’s space. That’s just one. I dedicated that song to one of my daughters. She, at 3-ish years old asked to have ZZ Top’s “La Grange” *every day* (every day) the minute we started for home from daycare. I heard that song daily for months. So worth it. Watching her do8ng the low voice words in the beginning, “lotta nice girlsssah,” the had banging in her car seat. She loved SRV. She was “Little Sister,” I edited the lyrics for her birthday. So SRV (and Ella, Pavarotti and More) helped me through one of the hardest times of my life, so I’m not objective. But SRV still stands above and beyond without that. But I take your points. I think Stevie’s influences were crucial. I think he was better - perhaps not technically (but probably technically) but just having “it”. His teachers had “it” too - not on Stevie level. There I go, narrow minded again. I’m hardly narrow minded. I love every blues genre, I play blues (not for anyone to hear) once I string my favorite guitars, I’m going to write and play again. I love the simplicity. The history and origins are not recognized or respected enough. Sorry, friend, I rambled. Thank you for reminding me to expand my blues appreciation. It’s hard to do. I’m not as interested in technical skill/timing as I am in heart, soul, spirit and genuine-ness. SRV, a most flamboyant performer is so far the most genuine blues artist. I’m happy to learn of others that I don’t know of or am wrong about. Thanks again for your meaningful comment. Take care.
Happy 10th anniversary of Buddy guy's rhythm and blues full album!

+Bob Fuqua I think that 3 dislikes among 88,930 viewers is very acceptable.
