Legend has it the neck of the guitar was actually broken after this because of how hard he played, I'm not even making a joke there's a bit on Wikipedia about it if I remember right
@@lukapejkovic918 Yes you're correct, the guitar in this video was owned by Stevies friend, and Stevies hands were so strong that they actually cracked the neck, which is absolutuely phenomenal. "Used on MTV Unplugged. and probably the same guitar Stevie used in 1985 for a benefit show, during which he played his first public acoustic set. This guitar actually belonged to Stevie's friend and personal assistant Timothy Duckworth. Timothy recalls that Stevie's hands were so strong that he accidently cracked the neck. The Hard Rock asked Stevie if they could have the damaged guitar, and Timothy said okay. I assume it is the one which has been on display at the Dallas Hard Rock Cafe for many years." - www.stevieray.com/gear.htm
He was thee best BLUES GUITARIST PLAYER EVER In My World, he jammed on his guitars and how he could sing, my God I've never seen STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN and DOUBLE TROUBLE. What a band STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN WAS THEE BEST BLUES GUITARIST AND SINGER EVER. DOUBLE TROUBLE a GREAT BAND..
I agree this was a year before I was born but the passion this guy had for music is the same passion kids are today with their cellphones.. it's so sad
I cried like a baby over the dinner dishes then went to a f'in' meeting that night. I never had the opportunity to see him live in concert ~~ I still cry when I realize the immensity I missed. Never compare as there isn't any comparing of music yet~~ I missed ~~Gary Moore~~ live too~~~~~~ Blessed with live music~~ spoiled is more like it~~ born & raised in SanFrancisco in 60's ~~~~ I still cry at all those I missed experiencing live in concert. MTV & Unplugged was one if the best ideas anyone ever came up with. We need more of this unplugged in the world today. All that electric music came from creation without wires~~~~ it us the m I st awesome thing to be there when songs are being created. The best are simple~ yet~ usually come from ~~~paying your dues~~ ~~~result~~~~ playin' the bad @!$ Blues ~~~~~~
Never ever be a STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN EVER THEE BEST GUITARIST I HAVE EVER SEEN I WAS @ STILL AM HOOKED ON THE BEST. LOVED STEVIE'S JAMMING WITH DOUBLE TROUBLE, HIS SINGING. THEY'LL NEVER EVER BE ANOTHER STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN NEVER.🤠
WOWWWW!!!!! This is the first time I've seen him play an acoustic guitar, look at that!!! Holy shit, I've listened to this man since I was a kid...he always just amazes me more and more!! RIP SRV YOUR A LEGEND 🤘❤🤘
He had the smoothest playing style I have ever seen. He made it seem absolutely effortless, like a walk in the park on a sunny day. A true master in every sense of the word.
Legend. He’s on near god status here in Austin, statue and all. I love hearing the stories from all the Austin OGs about going to see Stevie Ray Vaughan for $2-3 dollars downtown and drinking 50cent cold beers. You could go out with $10 bucks and come home with change…
It was really a $7-10 cover, but on Wednesdays all the clubs had nickel, dime or two bit Beusch Beers. LoL! It was alot harder to get that 10-15 bucks back then tho. If you were a kid, (me) you only made $4.25 an hour. It was fun trying to cram 30 people into 4 cars.
Stevie Ray Vaughn played the guitar like nobody else and had a voice that sounded as good live as it did on a track. RIP SRV. You’ll always be my favorite on the guitar.
The people that got to see him are starting to die off. We just keep this man’s legend alive. People 2000 years from now need to know this really happened. That a guy like him really existed
im from argentina and i turned 16 some months ago, i been playing 1 year along and the best thing that i could discover was this man and his songs, its one of the few musicians that has the greatness to enter inside my heart
I was stupid and never went too see any of his shows. But in 1988 I drove too the tower show in Philadelphia from Jersey. Last minute decision. I got a 40 and hung out near the side exit doors. I'm glad I waited. Saw some women looking for autographs and he drove out. Didn't say anything but reached and shook his hand. I just remember his eyes most. I just turned 20 a few days before.
I saw him at the inaguration of the Chicago Bles Fest in 1985. After almost 40 years, it is still the best I have ever seen. I will always miss him - there is no other that even comes close.
I’ve been working on and off again on something for Steve for over 15 years now… and I’m finally going to release it as one of the very first few episodes of my series on RUclips. My intentions are exactly what you said… to let people know how amazing of a human being this guy was.
Apparently Stevie borrowed this guitar from a friend for the unplugged show. The friend later noticed what Stevie hadn't.... his hands were so strong that he cracked the fucking neck of the guitar LOL - true story look it up. What an animal SRV was. RIP.
It’s true, SRV’s close friend and personal assistant Timothy Duckworth loaned him his Guild JF6512 12-string. He confirmed the neck was cracked in *several* places! The guitar was acquired or donated, and is on display at the Hard Rock Cafe in Dallas.
One more piece of trivia: SRV knew his strength. He cracked the neck of “Number One”, his 1963 Fender Strat. They took the neck off his red Strat to replace it.
@@nzmorcr Stevie jammed hard that was hi thing, and he did damn well. DOUBLE TROUBLE had no problem keeping up.with him. Great trio then added the KEYBOARDIST and oh how they jammed.🤠🔥🤠
hendrix is universely considered the best SRV may be your faveroute but if we’re talking about best, hendrix is the most influential and inventive and his stuff still is shocking 50 years later SRV is great but he can’t hold a candle to hendrix
This must be the only time in history when the audience clapping along wasn't completely annoying. Plus they also didn't start totally missing the beat, which also happens a lot.
@@The11eleven Are you talking down about STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN @ DOUBLE TROUBLE BAND AND KEYBOARDIST, FUCKING GREAT SONG. WHAT THE HELL YOU TALKING ABOUT?🤠🔥🤠 FOREVER.
Its cause the room is small. A Lot of times when you hear the Audeince clap along and it goes out of sync its cause the sound is taking time to travel to the back of the auditorium so when the claps travel back to the front(where the mics are) it creates a natural delay. So depending on how big the space is the audience literally cannot clap in time. its impossible.
The strongest and most disciplined fingers to control that 12 string in such a way. And you know he's playing with super heavy gauge strings (he always did). What a hero.
i Mean its really hard debate but to be honest every guitarist have his own specialty and Srv was the fastest and for me the best blues player. Jimi is influential and did a lot for the guitar like giving the tools For Srv to be awesome but i think in the end the both of them had different vision in music but i have to say srv i think the fastest shredder but again maybe Jimi didnt live to his full potential
@@lucas123bigman Listen to SRV doing Little Wing. He plays it better than Hendrix. That's how you know SRV is better. SRV has all the soul of Hendrix, but he is on another level of technical ability.
T.J. Ash I forget where I heard this from but evidently Stevie borrowed that Guild 12 string from a friend and by the time he was finished playing this show, Stevie had cracked the neck on it. If true, that’s insane how hard he played.
@@mathematicsiscool1434 He played 13 gauge strings on a guitar built to his specs. Eric Clapton tried SRV's guitar one time and handed it back. He didn't have the hand strength or dexterity to play SRV's guitars. He often broke strings playing and his crew had multiple guitars to switch out. I have read he could go thru 3 guitars a night when performing. He often used baking soda and gorilla glue on his fingers and nails to close wounds or reattach calluses from playing.
Yeah STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN played 12 @13 strings. Never heard him until 2020 he was singng "WITHOUT YOU" brought tears to my eyes. HEARD THAT GUITAR JAMMING I"ve got 100% songs on my telephone. He made me want more, AND more so I'm very much a fan of our TEXAS BLUES ROCKER UNTIL I DIE, FOREVER STEVIE💛=Love🤠= STEVIE.🔥=HOW HOT HE COULD JAM OUT THOSE SONGS ON HIS GUITARS.
+Christopher Hitchens It is from MTV if you watch the video they say it's MTV Unplugged. They are owned by the same company. The video was taken from a VH1 broadcast.
No we were alive and in front of the screen when the MTV Unplugged episode aired in 1990. Google the facts before calling anyone dumb. If VH1 aired it at a later date, that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that this was shot and aired for MTV Unplugged.
DEAR GOD WHAT A TALENT!!!.. Obviously when you speak of SRV you think of the guitar virtuoso that he was BUT He had The Voice to complement that guitar...Then let's not forget the look the soul and the person he was.. RIP SRV!!!... Brilliant!!!!!
+Steve P He was even more amazing live, serious shit, loved ever drop of sweat he hit me with, I had to get to the front & center stage, small venue, fanfuckingtastic!!!!
I was there that night. SRV and Joe Satriani didn`t want to play together, even MTV tried to arrange it.Different playing styles was the reason they said. I came there to see my idol Joe Satriani live, but i have to admit.....Stevie Ray Vaughan was in another league.
@@bigmike2464 : I wouldn't want to play with SRV, either. I'd have to keep stopping to pick my jaw off the ground. Very uncomfortable. Must safer to just listen 'n' watch the man.
Stevie wasn't just fast, he could be very melodic and rhythmical at the same time, while keeping his originality (a kind of "bloody" texan blues) that's why he sounds so good, it's a mix of good stuff...
@@raicebannon1936my great uncle Bunny got to see Stevie in concert back in the day and told my granny, “He has the strongest fingers I’ve ever seen”you’re quite right. Especially here he’s playing a damn 12 string
No one had any idea how hard it is to play this piece on an acoustic guitar...the way Stevie could mute all the string's he want to while all the while letting the strings ring out that he wanted...and to it on a twelve string is almost impossible... I've tried to so it and I couldn't even come close to making sound like this...we all sure miss your genius Stevie....🎸🎸🎸
A lot of it has to do with his strumming hand. As guitarists we often are, rightfully so, focused on what our heroes are doing on the fretboard, but SRV was as skilled an unique with his picking and strumming as with anything going on with the neck. Truly one of a kind.
When I think of the musicians I've admired that died early, Hendrix, Janis, Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Moore - Stevie Ray Vaughn's is the one that hurts the most and gives me the greatest sense of loss. I believe he had so much more to say, musically, I believe we got to hear just a fraction of the talent inside that man. RIP SRV
And not a single false note in the whole video. This dude was in absolute control of that guitar and every single sound that came out of it. Truly incredible. I remember seeing a John Mayer interview several years ago, where John said that SRV was untouchable because of his raw energy. Stevie would bring it every single time he touched a guitar. Some guys might get close for maybe a night or two throughout their whole tour, but he was doing it every night. You really can hear the pure talent and energy in every song of his. And really a great voice...and my favorite part of the video is when he finishes that last song, after nailing like four straight licks in a row, he looks up and grins and I can tell he's like, "well damn that was cool."
Best quotes I've heard .... Stevie Ray Vaughan played the guitar like it owed him money... The guitar needed a cigarette after Stevie was through... Stevie Ray Vaughan didn't play guitar....he was the guitar..
my fave was a quote from clapton himself... "stevie was an open channel. music flowed through him. even i have to sometimes stop and think about whats coming next. not stevie. with him it was effortless."
Stevie didn't play music; the music played Stevie. He was the instrument, the channel the music was coming through on. His whole body intensity and groove was how he stayed on the beam.
Man funny you say 29 years later cuz I'm 29 and watching this for the 1st time. Been grooving to the man for a minute but didnt know he had a unplugged set, nasty
This song will take a lifetime to learn and what he played on acoustic would take 2 tifetimes to learn. No bends and just pure love and drive! Stevie is the best gift our generation ever received!!
What a talent. What a loss to the world. I usually, and rarely, use the word master with classical musicians but, for me, this man was a musical master
I had the privilege and good fortune to see Stevie Ray & Double Trouble perform along with Carlos Santana in upstate New York, Rochester, before we lost him. My brother turned me onto Stevie before the radio stations began playing his music. It was ultimately the best concert I've ever been too. There is no one, and I mean absolutely NO ONE WHO COULD FILL Stevie's shoes, or even come close. He is, by far, my favorite artist. I had everything Stevie Ray had ever recorded included all bootleg. Sadly, it was stolen from me. Nothing could ever replace my collection of the greatest blues guitarist ever! He is, to me, the ultimate blues guitarists/ vocalist of all time. God bless you Stevie for no one could ever fill your shoes. I'm so greatcoat to have had the opportunity to see him live. No one could take that from me. One of your truest fans, Gina Macaulay. I love you brother, rest in peace.
Saw SRV in 84' in his hometown Dallas, Tx at the Reunion arena. Member that place? He opened get this for the Moody Blues "Nights in white satin" cool right? On the marquee in big, big letters it said Dallas welcomes THE MOODY BLUES. In small little ones it read just like this w/special guest stevie ray vaughn. No capitals, no nothing. Me and my bud I was 16 yrs old. 8th row just to the right of center, we had 3 fat killer doobs. We smoked and we were laughin our asses at anything because we were high and my bud was just a funny looking guy. So he said well "Billy we gotta sit through some clown named Stevie Ray Vaughn then the Moody's come on". I was like yea cool very cool, but,but first Stevie right, with his SRV NO 1 strat came on w/Double Trouble. Probably within maybe 3 minutes that's all it took. We saw the greatest bluesman to ever live. For me and I've seen so many greats live here's my list Santana, Page, Gilmour, Dimeola, Satriana, Lifeson, J. Vaughn, Beck, S. Howe, S. Stills, Eddie Hazel, Ag. Young, R. Trower, Mike Campbell, L. Buckingham, Jimmy Herring, Jeff Healey. Michael Hedges, Leo Kottke, Stanley Jordan, Pat Methany, Jeff Buckley...A few others I can't think of at the moment. SRV easily the greatest guitar player I've ever seen and man that's sayin something.
Wow that first song on a 12 string (Rude Mood) Just unbelievable no words can describe that talent. One of the greatest the world has ever seen. Rest in peace. He died the year I was born.
Christ is rocking with SRV! Had the honor of seeing him live in four small midwestern venues in the 80s. No matter how long it’s been, his playing never gets outdated or outdone.
7:30 is some amazing finger work.. Just to listen to it blows your mind then to see his fingers fast as lightning. You were one of the worlds premier guitar players RIP/ SRV.
Stevie Ray Vaughan stuff on an electic guitar is one thing. Stevie Ray Vaughan on acoustic is another. Stevie Ray Vaughan on a 12 string acoustic is a totally different animal. He was a true American Treasure because not only was he good on electric guitar with three guys backing him up he was just as good with a twelve string acoustic. Rest In Peace dude.
I was lucky enough to see him live 3 times. The last time with Doctor John, John Lee Hooker, Joe Cocker, and BB King. Fantastic jam at the end. 1990 in Los Angeles. HE WAS THE BEST.
Because he was such a fantastic guitarist, his great, great vocals are too often overlooked. Just gifted all the way around. And, of course, a tragic, heartbreaking loss, especially since he had finally found sobriety and peace.
I always try to point that out to folks as well. Stevie's vocals are so underrated. he was such a great vocalist as well, and a lyracist as well. he was such a complete package, people just overlook everything outside of his guitar playing, which is a shame. I think early on he recorded alot of covers because he lacked the confidence in his own songwriting, but as time went on it was proven he was a fantastic songwriter. his original songs are classics that hold up as well as any of the covers he did. And that voice . Man, he had such a gorgeous tone and he could communicate so much emotion in his voice. I prefer his voice more than Clapton, Hendrix, or any of the Blues greats.
Back when people recognized and loved a musician for their sheer talent. Stevie never needed anything else to prove how great or genuine he was. When you hear his playing, or see live videos like this, you know instantly who it is, and that it’s going to be great, and that’s what makes him so special. His musicianship was out of this world, and he was a really good hearted man. It’s a shame he didn’t stick around with us a bit longer. Thank you always to Stevie Ray Vaughan for the loving vibes and amazing music, and the inspiration to pick up the guitar
I remember watching this on MTV.. and I felt bad for the next act it was a three person group who looked scared to death knowing the three of them could not do what he just did. SRV Legend.
Watching again this morning, tears stream down my face. The pain of his loss overcomes me here and again, when I listen to that magical gift our Creator bestowed upon our beloved and humble SRV. "Another six stringer gone home..." We all love you, and love, along with your music never dies.❤ SRV ❤
@@pietbliksem Or, it's downvoted by those individuals in their hopes that RUclips will filter out Stevie instead of constantly recommending him. Don't ask me, I'm just guessing.
+Ian Mastrangelo yeah, but satriani is a shredder and srv a blues player, even if shredding is harder, srv is one of the few blues player who can really make a blues be hard to shredding levels.
I remember when i first saw this. My Brother and I were channel surfing one night and stumbled on this. We just sat there, jaws on the floor ...... R.I.P. SRV you are missed.
Best blues guitarist ever. Name one other that had more of an impact than him. This guy put blues on the map. And the radio. Everywhere. Miss you Stevie.
Saw SRV in 78 at Fitzgerald’s in Houston. Before Double Trouble was formed. I had heard a lot about him. I told a coworker that played guitar we have to go see the show. We went and it was impressive. Over the years in just got better. Unfortunately only saw him and double trouble one more time before his death. I still listen to their music. I’m 66 yrs old native Texan. SRV and Double Trouble were very much responsible for rejuvenating the Blues rock in the US and the World. Amazing 👍👍🇺🇸🇨🇱
This is legitimately my favorite live performance from any artist ever. Sucks he died before I was born. I would kill to to see him play live in person. I showed this to a coworker and she told me her boyfriend could do this because he is soooo good at guitar. so I told her to send him the video. He told her to apologize. Can you imagine thinking someone is a better guitar player than SRV? Ignorance.
my 12 string watches this when im not at home
Lol Valdemar!

Jimi is influential and did a lot for the guitar like giving the tools For Srv to be awesome but i think in the end the both of them had different vision in music but i have to say srv i think the fastest shredder but again maybe Jimi didnt live to his full potential
@@lucas123bigman there was only a 2 year gap in their careers, before their respective deaths.
@@lucas123bigman so I wouln't say neither really did.
@@lucas123bigman Listen to SRV doing Little Wing. He plays it better than Hendrix. That's how you know SRV is better. SRV has all the soul of Hendrix, but he is on another level of technical ability.
not testify, fail
12 string. Genius. Thank God this is here for us to see. No one would believe otherwise.
Just thinking about the same.. Out of this world!
T.J. Ash I forget where I heard this from but evidently Stevie borrowed that Guild 12 string from a friend and by the time he was finished playing this show, Stevie had cracked the neck on it. If true, that’s insane how hard he played.
Pretty sure SRV could play any guitar....or shovel or anything with strings for that matter
@@mathematicsiscool1434 He played 13 gauge strings on a guitar built to his specs. Eric Clapton tried SRV's guitar one time and handed it back. He didn't have the hand strength or dexterity to play SRV's guitars. He often broke strings playing and his crew had multiple guitars to switch out. I have read he could go thru 3 guitars a night when performing. He often used baking soda and gorilla glue on his fingers and nails to close wounds or reattach calluses from playing.
Yeah STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN played 12 @13 strings. Never heard him until 2020 he was singng "WITHOUT YOU" brought tears to my eyes. HEARD THAT GUITAR JAMMING I"ve got 100% songs on my telephone. He made me want more, AND more so I'm very much a fan of our TEXAS BLUES ROCKER UNTIL I DIE, FOREVER STEVIE💛=Love🤠= STEVIE.🔥=HOW HOT HE COULD JAM OUT THOSE SONGS ON HIS GUITARS.
It's heartwarming hearing the applause for SRV during that insane acoustic session. Back when actual musical talent was appreciated.
It sure in the hell was BEST IN THE WORLD.🤠👍🔥
SO DAMN GREAT GREAT COMMENT ON STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN'S ACCOUSTIC SESSION. THANKS.🤠🔥🤠
Stevie’s guitar playing was so great, people tend to overlook his fantastic singing. RIP
if stevies not playing pride and joy in heaven I don't want to go
For real dude
Put me down for his rendition of "Leave My Girl Alone" in heaven.
Life by the drop for me
Ha!
Riviera Paradise
no point talking about his guitar playing. out of this world.
but his voice...
always perfect and so expressive
SO TRUE....amazing, perfect!! the best! Sharing my admiration with a British on the other side of the ocean, with the first Jack Bruce...
Stevie, you have no idea how much we want you to return to this earth and bring us some rocking blues!
Man do we miss you :(
I'D PICK STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN TO COME BACK AND JAM 1,000 000X THAN HE DID.🤠🔥🤠
Playing like that on a fkn 12 string acoustic. WOW.
Gibson Blues A fucking 12 string!
+Gibson Blues Am I the only one that wanted to punch that annoying host in the face?
Phlem Phlam It's his damn Pauly Shore voice.
yea crazy. and hitting all those clean notes at the Same time
with that giant ring on his left ring finger... what a monster.
Back when MTV actually played music.
***** you mean VH1?
+Kris Prutzman Yes. I am pretty shure the clip is from MTV unplugged though...
+Christopher Hitchens It is from MTV if you watch the video they say it's MTV Unplugged. They are owned by the same company. The video was taken from a VH1 broadcast.
Christopher Hitchens theres a vh1 watermark on the screen you guys r dumb
No we were alive and in front of the screen when the MTV Unplugged episode aired in 1990. Google the facts before calling anyone dumb. If VH1 aired it at a later date, that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that this was shot and aired for MTV Unplugged.
DEAR GOD WHAT A TALENT!!!.. Obviously when you speak of SRV you think of the guitar virtuoso that he was BUT He had The Voice to complement that guitar...Then let's not forget the look the soul and the person he was.. RIP SRV!!!... Brilliant!!!!!
+Steve P Voice???? You mean like Muddy Waters? Albert King?
+Steve P He was even more amazing live, serious shit, loved ever drop of sweat he hit me with, I had to get to the front & center stage, small venue, fanfuckingtastic!!!!
better than Muddy Waters or Albert King? were you his lover? lol!
+Steve P There were a lot of awesome blues guitarists out there, but damn! Texas Blues? I love it!
+Arnold Ehret I would put him above those two. It's a matter of style of course, they're all great.
What I find even more impressive about this is the fact that he’s playing a 12 string and still not missing a single note
I was there that night. SRV and Joe Satriani didn`t want to play together, even MTV tried to arrange it.Different playing styles was the reason they said. I came there to see my idol Joe Satriani live, but i have to admit.....Stevie Ray Vaughan was in another league.
I envy you. That must have been some night.
strange, since Satch is heavily influenced by Blues.... not like SRV, but still....
Was there some kind of beef between them?
@@bigmike2464 : I wouldn't want to play with SRV, either. I'd have to keep stopping to pick my jaw off the ground. Very uncomfortable. Must safer to just listen 'n' watch the man.
You have no idea what idea I'd do to see him live, twelve string or not. I bet this was amazing.
That's when MTV was good. Good old times.
And when it was about music too, not just teens humping.
Oh how the mighty have fallen.
MTV 91=Stevie Ray Vaughn and Joe Satriani
MTV 17=Fetty Wap and Miley Cyrus...
Well music has been sucking for a good while now lol I really don't blame MTV
I’ve never heard anyone play a 12 string like this. Amazing!
Leo kottke is one to listen too. Not to take anything from SRV
Check out Glen Campbell
Glen Campbell
Stevie wasn't just fast, he could be very melodic and rhythmical at the same time, while keeping his originality (a kind of "bloody" texan blues) that's why he sounds so good, it's a mix of good stuff...
His hands and fingers are quite strong. Each note really pops. That is very hard to do.
@@raicebannon1936 Those big bends he does at the first fret on a 12 string are just about impossible to pull off, it takes amazing strength.
@@raicebannon1936my great uncle Bunny got to see Stevie in concert back in the day and told my granny, “He has the strongest fingers I’ve ever seen”you’re quite right. Especially here he’s playing a damn 12 string
The action and string size on his strat made this level of acoustic dexterity possible. He was a beast, yet super smoooooth
goosebump raising performance, this is why we call him "legend "
You can still hear that undeniable pure Stevie even unplugged.
No one had any idea how hard it is to play this piece on an acoustic guitar...the way Stevie could mute all the string's he want to while all the while letting the strings ring out that he wanted...and to it on a twelve string is almost impossible... I've tried to so it and I couldn't even come close to making sound like this...we all sure miss your genius Stevie....🎸🎸🎸
on folk is so hard
While playing it on a 12 string acoustic, too. I cant even imagine how shredded my finger tips would be after playing this song lol.
@@eldiablo3794that’s a 6 string
@@perijon00 it's a 12 string, dumbass
A lot of it has to do with his strumming hand. As guitarists we often are, rightfully so, focused on what our heroes are doing on the fretboard, but SRV was as skilled an unique with his picking and strumming as with anything going on with the neck.
Truly one of a kind.
When I think of the musicians I've admired that died early, Hendrix, Janis, Ronnie Van Zant, Gary Moore - Stevie Ray Vaughn's is the one that hurts the most and gives me the greatest sense of loss. I believe he had so much more to say, musically, I believe we got to hear just a fraction of the talent inside that man. RIP SRV
And not a single false note in the whole video. This dude was in absolute control of that guitar and every single sound that came out of it. Truly incredible.
I remember seeing a John Mayer interview several years ago, where John said that SRV was untouchable because of his raw energy. Stevie would bring it every single time he touched a guitar. Some guys might get close for maybe a night or two throughout their whole tour, but he was doing it every night. You really can hear the pure talent and energy in every song of his.
And really a great voice...and my favorite part of the video is when he finishes that last song, after nailing like four straight licks in a row, he looks up and grins and I can tell he's like, "well damn that was cool."
Best quotes I've heard ....
Stevie Ray Vaughan played the guitar like it owed him money...
The guitar needed a cigarette after Stevie was through...
Stevie Ray Vaughan didn't play guitar....he was the guitar..
Stevie made a deal with the devil. Not sure what Stevie got, but the devil got guitar lessons.
Now that is funny
my fave was a quote from clapton himself...
"stevie was an open channel. music flowed through him. even i have to sometimes stop and think about whats coming next. not stevie. with him it was effortless."
John Mayer said Stevie played like “a rage without the anger”
Stevie didn't play music; the music played Stevie. He was the instrument, the channel the music was coming through on. His whole body intensity and groove was how he stayed on the beam.
He is one of the best guitarists, if not best ever.❤❤❤❤❤
Never thought I'd see someone abuse an acoustic guitar like that. This is amazing
That's no abuse, that's called making love to your instrument!
He always said play it like a fucking man! Haha - we miss you Stevie!!
I heard he broke the neck of that guitar from playing it that night
Then you havet seen Tommy Emmanuel...
@WE GRABBED TRUMP BY THE BALLOT hate to break it to you bub, he did.
Even 29 years later, That SRV performance STILL Amazes Me!
Man funny you say 29 years later cuz I'm 29 and watching this for the 1st time. Been grooving to the man for a minute but didnt know he had a unplugged set, nasty
This song will take a lifetime to learn and what he played on acoustic would take 2 tifetimes to learn. No bends and just pure love and drive! Stevie is the best gift our generation ever received!!
Saying he took the blues to a whole other level is an understatement. Rest In Peace legend
I'm most amazed by the fact that the audience was clapping on beat.
It's a smaller room so the sound hit the audience in time enough for them to actually keep time with his time
That's pretty normal for me lol
@@jomama3236I see this on every comment by you. Not necessarily true. They might just be on time
he had to have had the strongest fingers known to man....totally amazing
I have heard stories of Stevie crazy glueing skin from his callous feet to his finger tips.
Some brute strenght indeed. It came from his soul I guess. Just the human body doesn't have that strenght
@Savage Buttsniffer well it was actually 56 - 13s but he always plays it in eb tuning. speaks for its self really
@@daveberswick5372 most
@@YAN-vi1ct Weren't the middle strings thinner, though? I've read a few times that only the E strings were from a set of .13s.
What a talent. What a loss to the world. I usually, and rarely, use the word master with classical musicians but, for me, this man was a musical master
Stevie Ray Vaughan was a giant of singer and player. I think he married the blues, rock and jazz together. Miss him so much!🙏🤗❤️
I am so damn glad that I had the privilege of see this legend live.
just simply one of a kind, bloody brilliant playing a 12 string like no other blues has been done solo...RIP
I had the privilege and good fortune to see Stevie Ray & Double Trouble perform along with Carlos Santana in upstate New York, Rochester, before we lost him. My brother turned me onto Stevie before the radio stations began playing his music. It was ultimately the best concert I've ever been too. There is no one, and I mean absolutely NO ONE WHO COULD FILL Stevie's shoes, or even come close. He is, by far, my favorite artist. I had everything Stevie Ray had ever recorded included all bootleg. Sadly, it was stolen from me. Nothing could ever replace my collection of the greatest blues guitarist ever! He is, to me, the ultimate blues guitarists/ vocalist of all time. God bless you Stevie for no one could ever fill your shoes. I'm so greatcoat to have had the opportunity to see him live. No one could take that from me. One of your truest fans, Gina Macaulay. I love you brother, rest in peace.
SRV IS UNMATCHED EVEN TO THIS DAY !!! GUITAR GOD !!! PURE LEGENDARY GREATNESS !!
Dude, he was playing that on a 12 string guitar. Those things are freaking hard to play! He is such a legend man!
Saw SRV in 84' in his hometown Dallas, Tx at the Reunion arena. Member that place? He opened get this for the Moody Blues "Nights in white satin" cool right? On the marquee in big, big letters it said Dallas welcomes THE MOODY BLUES. In small little ones it read just like this w/special guest stevie ray vaughn. No capitals, no nothing. Me and my bud I was 16 yrs old. 8th row just to the right of center, we had 3 fat killer doobs. We smoked and we were laughin our asses at anything because we were high and my bud was just a funny looking guy. So he said well "Billy we gotta sit through some clown named Stevie Ray Vaughn then the Moody's come on". I was like yea cool very cool, but,but first Stevie right, with his SRV NO 1 strat came on w/Double Trouble. Probably within maybe 3 minutes that's all it took. We saw the greatest bluesman to ever live. For me and I've seen so many greats live here's my list Santana, Page, Gilmour, Dimeola, Satriana, Lifeson, J. Vaughn, Beck, S. Howe, S. Stills, Eddie Hazel, Ag. Young, R. Trower, Mike Campbell, L. Buckingham, Jimmy Herring, Jeff Healey. Michael Hedges, Leo Kottke, Stanley Jordan, Pat Methany, Jeff Buckley...A few others I can't think of at the moment. SRV easily the greatest guitar player I've ever seen and man that's sayin something.
Thanks for sharing.
Billy Pilgrim i know a musician by the name of Mike Campbell is the one you are talking about from Kansas City?
Given the other people listed, he's probably referring to Tom Petty's lead guitarist.
No UbraFractus is right it's Tom Petty's guitarist.
You're right it was Tom Petty's guitarist I was referring to.
His groove is so tight that when he does any accent it just feels incredible. And he’s accenting all the time. Incredible.
Whenever I fantasize about playing the guitar, I come back to SRV. Can’t imagine what it felt like to have this kind of gift. What a beast.
Wow that first song on a 12 string (Rude Mood) Just unbelievable no words can describe that talent. One of the greatest the world has ever seen. Rest in peace. He died the year I was born.
Stevie...you're our pride and joy.
Christ is rocking with SRV!
Had the honor of seeing him live in four small midwestern venues in the 80s. No matter how long it’s been, his playing never gets outdated or outdone.
Most people don’t talk about his voice. Amazing.
Every time see a new video of that man playing is incredible, watch Texas flood from the Elmacombo
Not even in my wildest dreams could i imagine having SRV's level of talent and skill. Gone too soon.
7:30
is some amazing finger work.. Just to listen to it blows your mind then to see his fingers fast as lightning. You were one of the worlds premier guitar players RIP/ SRV.
I agree..!
90s Blues, Metallica, Grunge the Best of Times
Just how Stevie said "pride and joy" when asked what he was gonna play mAkes me love him that much more.
just a comment to appreciate Stevie's voice...his voice was made for blues as Layne Staleys voice was made for grunge...both incredible live
Im a big AIC fan and SRV cool you would bring up the great Layne.
@@josephhornbeck4710 nice to cross paths with you fellow kindred spirit
Definitely appreciate the Layne mention 2 of the best at what they do gone to soon .
Stevie Ray Vaughan stuff on an electic guitar is one thing. Stevie Ray Vaughan on acoustic is another. Stevie Ray Vaughan on a 12 string acoustic is a totally different animal. He was a true American Treasure because not only was he good on electric guitar with three guys backing him up he was just as good with a twelve string acoustic. Rest In Peace dude.
I was lucky enough to get to see him twice! He would mesmerize the whole audience! Rest In Peace, Stevie Ray Vaughan!
Stevie had incredibly strong hands and he was an amazing player.
I was lucky enough to see him live 3 times. The last time with Doctor John, John Lee Hooker, Joe Cocker, and BB King. Fantastic jam at the end. 1990 in Los Angeles. HE WAS THE BEST.
You lucky bastard
What a line up
Because he was such a fantastic guitarist, his great, great vocals are too often overlooked. Just gifted all the way around. And, of course, a tragic, heartbreaking loss, especially since he had finally found sobriety and peace.
I always try to point that out to folks as well. Stevie's vocals are so underrated. he was such a great vocalist as well, and a lyracist as well. he was such a complete package, people just overlook everything outside of his guitar playing, which is a shame. I think early on he recorded alot of covers because he lacked the confidence in his own songwriting, but as time went on it was proven he was a fantastic songwriter. his original songs are classics that hold up as well as any of the covers he did. And that voice . Man, he had such a gorgeous tone and he could communicate so much emotion in his voice. I prefer his voice more than Clapton, Hendrix, or any of the Blues greats.
Well i watch this again and again ........and again.............and.......i just vant believe it......!!!!!! Its f.....g unbelievable....!!!!!!!!
Back when people recognized and loved a musician for their sheer talent. Stevie never needed anything else to prove how great or genuine he was. When you hear his playing, or see live videos like this, you know instantly who it is, and that it’s going to be great, and that’s what makes him so special. His musicianship was out of this world, and he was a really good hearted man. It’s a shame he didn’t stick around with us a bit longer. Thank you always to Stevie Ray Vaughan for the loving vibes and amazing music, and the inspiration to pick up the guitar
He was an amazing guitarist, I could never be as good as him if I lived a 100 life times, musical genius!
All the MASTERS of the instrument, bow down!
I used to close my eyes and just listen back then, still do still awesome.
I remember watching this on MTV.. and I felt bad for the next act it was a three person group who looked scared to death knowing the three of them could not do what he just did. SRV Legend.
GaWd damn son. Kill'in it. SRV was not from this planet. He never died, he just went home.
Best comment. SRV ruled.
Yep!
omg i can't breathe....I'd give my liver to have seen him live....
I saw him live right around this time in Manchester N.H. with Joe Cocker and America. Was an incredible show. It was an outdoor show in veterans Park.
***** LUCKY! I was only 6 when he died
Rhiannon Kyle
Yes it was truly an amazing performance.
I wish he was still alive. I'd go to every concert. He was truly amazing and brilliant.
Rhiannon,
You're funny
Watching again this morning, tears stream down my face. The pain of his loss overcomes me here and again, when I listen to that magical gift our Creator bestowed upon our beloved and humble SRV.
"Another six stringer gone home..." We all love you, and love, along with your music never dies.❤ SRV ❤
2022 back in the blues mood, I can go back and appreciate this every now and then. R.I.P SRV
Amazing that 80 people did not like this performance, guess they don't know what music is all about. Feel sorry for them.
Not liking this when you took the trouble to listen in the first place sounds suspiciously like a green, sticky, bug-eyed case of wannabe envy...

There’s absolutely no reason for a “dislike” button on this video.
30 years later-still get the chills. He was one of a kind.
Played that 12 string with such ease, still impressive to this day
ghostrid3 TIL THIS DAY!!!!!!
It was a borrowed 12 string and he cracked the neck from playing
Saw SRV in 78 at Fitzgerald’s in Houston. Before Double Trouble was formed. I had heard a lot about him. I told a coworker that played guitar we have to go see the show. We went and it was impressive. Over the years in just got better. Unfortunately only saw him and double trouble one more time before his death. I still listen to their music. I’m 66 yrs old native Texan. SRV and Double Trouble were very much responsible for rejuvenating the Blues rock in the US and the World. Amazing 👍👍🇺🇸🇨🇱
This is legitimately my favorite live performance from any artist ever. Sucks he died before I was born. I would kill to to see him play live in person.
I showed this to a coworker and she told me her boyfriend could do this because he is soooo good at guitar. so I told her to send him the video. He told her to apologize. Can you imagine thinking someone is a better guitar player than SRV? Ignorance.
She loves her boyfriend!
That's a cute story, tho. Ignorant as hell but it's cute she thinks that way.
It’s cute but her boyfriend’s reaction is the best part of this story
exaggerate much? kill what? a human? smh

I'll simply say this, I miss you Stevie, what you gave the world of music is a legacy, wish you were still with us, RIP Stevie Ray
Istanbul time I have seen him on acoustic, got to be 1 of the best ever, so quick 😮
Cantaba como los dioses y tocando la guitarra era un tornado salvaje. Un blues muy distinto a todos los demas. Desde Argentina.
Well put!
