The way we, today, play a Stevie Ray Vaughan tune, trying to sound as close as we can to him, is exactly what he was doing to sound like Albert. The cycle goes on✨
SRV is a musical ability freak of nature. Only he can cover so many of the legends songs and not only do a good job, he actually adds an intensity to pretty much any iconic song he does. The guitarist in the devils band in hell may be Steve Vai, but Stevie Ray is the lead guitarist in God's band in heaven. He is like higher deity musician. When your playing makes Clapton pull over his car the first time he hears it because he can't believe what he hears and that someone is that fuckin good, and that he knew whoever it is was much better than him.... And people always referred to Clapton as "God", but yet thier god worships another... That really says something.
MR. DICKENS. #1 HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT MR .ERIC CLAPTON. HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT DERECK . TRUCKS ? STEVE VAI.. OH I FORGOT. JAMES MARSHALL HENDRIX! REAVLIUATE.
Closing my eyes….it’s like having a spiritual experience - the “all in” mentality. I’m giving it my all. Does his singing compliment his playing or does his playing compliment his singing. A back and forth serenade.
Stevie Ray wouldnt have known how to play this kind of guitar without Albert King and Jimi. Im glad he didnt quit until he learned the blues. Now they are playing in the next world. May they RIP
Anything that that slides out of Stevie Ray Vaughans lips is golden..and from his guitar cords and strings..sensational to the EARS..you with me? Performance is upward and beyond .
I saw Albert live back in '68-'70 at the Fillmore West in SF maybe ten times as either second or opening the bill there, Bill Graham booked him pretty often back then. Agree strongly with the comment downthread about Albert's double bends being incredible, and SRV absolutely NAILS him, IMHO, having seen Albert do them live! L' homage!
yeah it's that classic Albert King lick. Albert did it so easily because his guitar had the treble e on top, meaning that when he fretted it, his finger would naturally rest on the b string too, so it'd be easy to bend them at the same time. Such a awesome sound though
I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I cut your wood so easy for you, You can't help but say, "Hot Dog!" Some call me Woodcutting Sam, Some call me Woodcutting Jim. The last girl I cut wood for, She wants me back again. I'm a crosscut saw, Baby, drag me across your log. I cut your wood so easy for you, You can't help but say, "Hot Dog!" I got a double-bladed axe That really cuts good. Well, I'm a crosscut saw, Gonna bury me in your wood.

When I was a teenager I wanted to be like him so much that I put .13's on my Strat and literally bowed the neck! Got it fixed and after that just played .11's in standard tuning.
swee abn it’s not that hard to find just do what I do, take a super reverb put on eight find a really good Strat with a 59 style neck pick up a little bit reverb and bingo Bango you’re there
I agree buddy.I been to Joe,s generic bar in Austin,TX.Went there all because of Stevie.A guy by the name Mike James back here got his voodoo guitar power.They gave it to the wrong guy ,it's the same name but my lastname is Fetsko.I seen him break a sting and not miss a note.ALL TRUE!
Glad I ran across this one. I don't know what the hell he's talkin about but I really don't care. Probably some weird sexual inuendo which is fine by me cause it's Stevie. 😍Love this, it's so cool. Anyone care to explain it to this dummy? 🙄 thankX ElmoLewiss. ☮️to all.
Check out John Hammond Jr;'s version, from the late 60s. Atlantic Records, I have the single!!!, somewhere. B side, Brown Eyed Hansome Man. Funkier, more "chunka, chunka".
We all hear things in different ways. When I hear Albert's version it sounds hollow, and like it was recorded in my friends basement. Stevie with all his fret beating and lazy strumming sounds full, and more like how a crosscut saw sounds. One cannot deny the licks Stevie took from Albert, but I think in the end Albert gave them eagerly. Cheers
I agree. Albert King's style of blues was so much more relaxed and just flowed out. This seems more pushed. Don't get me wrong, I like all the Blues players in their own right and different flavours but Stevie Ray and Gary Moore in particular have a style that is too much like showing off for my tastes. I'm trying to learn some Albert King style licks at the moment, it's not as easy as it looks.

The method, but not the level
That vibrato while bending gives me the chills.
Those Albert King style double string bends sound amazing on the middle strat pickup😍
too bad it ain't a telecaster
@@JamesSpeiser ??? Why would you want it to be a telecaster?
Thanks for the tone tip!
Stevie's double stops are just disgusting....so much life on that vibrato, my God, it's beautiful.
Turn it up folks, Stevie Ray fully firing on all cylinders.
Cheers from Wild West Oz.

ive never heard stevie play this one, he fucking nailed it!!

Crosscut saw everyday!!! As we get to work...

One and only SRV 🎸❤️
I agree....all his covers were the best when you think of the ones he did..
I think it's one of the best crosscut saw covers I've ever heard. I don't think Stevie woulda argued with you.
The one and only.
You youngings missed it.
Stevie throwed it all with his guitar!! Is just too much...Play it Stevie!!! God SRV.
Stevie Ray is the guitar God period.

never heard this by Stevie before, I had the albert king cd with this on it. This is golden, thanks for putting it up
He’s my G.O.A.T❤️🎸🎩🎸❤️
You have to be a crosscut saw in this world..
Bring it home ❤
Great tune....that sound and tone SRV has...omg..
Just keep the Blues going 💙
This is why the In Session Album happened!!
He should've put this tune, and tin pan alley on Texas Flood.
Amazing and thank you for sharing. I never heard this song before.SRV is GOAT
Early years ❤

Crosscut saw .never quit
2:19 soul just ooooozing out of that Strat. ;)
He blows my mind. Love you always Stevie! Thank you for posting!

The guitar tone of the gods
Auditory ambrosia
Working Men get it done!!!
More please!!
awesome tone to die for
12 gauge, good luck:), i prefer 0:8-9. ultra light, tube lamp amp or something. switch position (fender type: up (right handed).
When I was a teenager I wanted to be like him so much that I put .13's on my Strat and literally bowed the neck! Got it fixed and after that just played .11's in standard tuning.
swee abn it’s not that hard to find just do what I do, take a super reverb put on eight find a really good Strat with a 59 style neck pick up a little bit reverb and bingo Bango you’re there
swee abn sounds like a silicon fuzz face or some solid state amp (maybe a backup?) about to blow up
Enjoy you all!!!
Get it done men !!!
1:38 NASTY!!!
Master learn and play!!
Albert and Stevie are in my top ten guitar players. Stevie could sound just like Albert king if he wanted to. This is an example of that.
So raw superb
for anyone wondering, I'm pretty sure this is at Fitzgerald's Houston Texas, in 1981
Smokin'
GOAT
I was operating a crosscut saw in a cabinet shop the day/minute/instant that I found out SRV died, sorrow and blues.
GOOD LORD MAN
Just having fun playing the blues 💙
Have fun !!
Great video
And coke or whiskey couldn't stop that
sweet lord thats the stuff, thanks man!!
Bends And slides!!
19 tone deaf idiots not liking this great tune. Stevie Ray rules.

Can we have the thumbs down removed for God's sake?
Why is it the good die young

Glad I ran across this one. I don't know what the hell he's talkin about but I really don't care. Probably some weird sexual inuendo which is fine by me cause it's Stevie. 😍Love this, it's so cool. Anyone care to explain it to this dummy? 🙄 thankX ElmoLewiss. ☮️to all.

stevie rocks irish band achilles do a excellent version cross cut saw
One string sounds like a whole chord.
Ya but 2 strings broke them all...
Wonder why some people think this bad is it how he speaks or the fact it’s not as refined?
Goat version
@ElmoLewiss where do I buy it please?
Stevie's got Albert King's licks and feel down pat, but the band ain't keepin' up.
chris layton and tommy shannon aint keeping up? youre crazy man
Este tipo era bueno, pero cuando tocaba temas de otros, por lo general se los cargaba.
2:18
@JSCPYLON Just you personal opinion...isn't it?
try copying THAT! ahaha
508,888,756 views I already did
Try again
Woah i hope that guitar was over 18.
Sister Rosetta Tharpe would have ripped all these so-called gods a new chord.

She was good but not this great.
@@pkspeat yeah right...
Hey guys, check out Antar Blue's lick of Crosscut......awesome.
Man, he was loud! Check this out: -9ePM0b5iJQ (video id) It's Evan Johns doing cross-cut saw. Raw and tasty.
Sorry.....Guys.....Albert's version is still the best to me. This version sounds crude and butcherd
