Glenn, Jim Gardner here. I sat by you at the Balcony Club about 5 weeks March 2023 when you were videoing Junior Clarks Saturday night gig. What I didn't know at the time, is what all you have seen and captured on video throughout the years. I have watched this Dec. 2nd 1988 show with Kim, Duke, Preston, and Stevie Ray, sitting in for Jimmie that night. I saw Stevie many times but what you preserved for all to see this night is a great piece of history and how great he was. He was unselfish, and brought out the best of the other band members. These memories will live for ever. Thanks for making this possible. Jim
I was lucky enough to be at Stevie’s El Mocambo show! In subsequent years I became good friends with Duke, and particularly Jimmy Vaughan, who I’m in contact with to this day! (I was a Blues Club owner, a festival operator and a radio DJ) Now I’m old and live on memories! lol Peace
Stevie Ray Vaughan was the greatest guitar player I have ever seen. R.I.P. SRV God Bless his family. I miss him so much. To watch him playing was amazing and I will never see another player like this again
@@mattmay7109 Without Jimi you wouldn’t have a Stevie. With out Albert King you wouldn’t have a Jimi or a Stevie. Which is something your dum azz knows nothing about. If it was a gun fight Stevie brought a knife. 😂😂😂😂 you keep thinkin George, that’s what ur good at. 😂😂😂😂
Stevie Ray Vaughan is fantastic and sooo good at playing the electric guitar..He surely out does himself at times..Amazing ..sensational musician..Good quality is Hard to come by..r u with me? Never be forgotten..RIP Stevie
My band opened for Duke at the original Lupos, in the 80s, and not only can he play, he’s a very nice person, who was very gracious to me and my fellow band mates, the way you would hope everyone would be, but they are not! Good to see Duke getting a little love, he deserves it!
I was in Houston in 90-91 the fab T-Birds had Duke and Kid Bangham on guitar and went to hang out with my friend Preston Hubbard they were doing 2 shows a night.Had a blast I got Duke to tell me his infamous Belushi story two nights I'll never forget.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is loose as a Goose on this stage and running away with it..What a night of entertainment this is and everybody feeling like swinging..its a great mold..terrific band.. .The rhythem and lyrics are outstanding and phenomenal..
I was lucky enough to be at a T-birds show in the early-mid eighties and SRV came on to join his brother and the band. They did a few tunes and then the whole band took a break. When they all came back on, and as it was right before Christmas, they did a whole set of Christmas tunes! It was one of the best shows I've seen. By anybody. Also, SRV and JLV did a tine with one guitar and passed it back and forth both playing the shit out of it. By the way, it was Jimmy's Strat they used.
@@kevincoleman8121 My band used to open up for Duke Robillard starting back in 1990 at The Last Call Saloon, and unfortunately just missed those great days when Stevie and Jimmie, and The T-Birds were around the area regularly.
He oozed everything he played. The blues was so in this man's blood and dna. God bless him.❤ I will never understand why the good are taken so young. 😢 (Year 2024)
Love seeing Stevie come back from where he goes when he's playing. Opens eyes, and he always looks so surprised...hey I am here...when did that happen! Winding down that last song in the very beginning was classic Stevie reentry to land of skinsuits.
Duke Robillard is a local native to upstate NY he went to Texas and showed the South that the North knows how to Rock the Blues! SRV shined as always he also traveled to Rochester played at the Red Creek bar on his way to Toronto to play with Albert King...
Thank God for GUITARS and thank God for musicians and singers..Duke Rolbilliard is a legend and Stevie Ray Vaughan is stringing on. That sensational guitar of his ..Kim Wilson is fantastic on harmonica and singing to all this phenominal music going out..what a performance with all these legends..RIP Stevie Ray Vaughan..you are remembered..
Stveie ray vaughan was one of the best .i saw him in a small club in the bay area .he totally rocked the shit .i named my first daughter .haley vaughan. I wish I could have met him .steel 💘 his music and will never forget him. California Terri.
Wow..legends performing all on stage with each other..how AWESOME is THAT..Stevie Ray Vaughan having the time of his life and so he is..incredible night and everyone is fabulous..
Dear God, he was fierce! I miss SRV every damn day. What lucky ducks got to see this thing! And with one of my all-time fave singers - the Mighty Kim Wilson! Thanks so much for this, Glenn. Hot DAIM!
We got the rhythem going on and Stevie Ray Vaughan ain't missing a cord and those strings are being strummed till the echo and sound is out all over town..All these legends are sensational..The best entertainment is going out to those sitting and viewing these legends in person..what a thrill to all of you in attendance and capturing these legends in action..The Best
Two great guitarist! I grew up with Duke in Rhode Island he taught me some licks. I've seen him play a thousand times Never disappoints. One of the best shows was with Johnny Winter! Time goes by so fast! RIP Stevie and Johnny 2 guitar slingers!
Come on Stevie Ray Vaughan..Work it out and About..sensationally Awesome..so sadly missed by all that ever knew and heard this legend play a guitar and sing..phenominal
Well, East Coast Blues Duke Robillard was the interesting thing for me. Grew up in 70s seeing Duke and Roomful boogie the F every weekend beaches in R.I. - T Birds and Stevie played in same town coming up obviously of the Texas blues idiom and in Stevie's case some Hendrix DNA whereas Jimmy V and Duke were more traditionalist. I'm wondering how East Coast boy approached and felt about the jam with the Texas guys. This sh*t is smokin' No filler, no fat. 💥
Just came upon this amazing treasure fine. Stevie, absolutely fantastic as always! Man, that man could play that guitar. Ty, for sharing such a gem to us go enjoy❤🎸
Here we go..Stevie Ray Vaughan the legend is sitting in for Jimmie Vaughan and the house is arockin..r u with me? Stevie and Kim Wilson are fantastic..Stage of professionals filling the airwaves of Blue's and rock..what a mix..
Glad to see a footage I haven’t seen of SRV! Without a doubt my favourite all time guitar player! Could play all types of music and good, too! I especially love to see him jam with other bands, and how humble he is and not hogging the spotlight with his hero’s!
So great! Stevie wrestling with a bolt of lightning at the solo at around 8:00.. the intensity and raw tone is amazing! So glad this was recorded..thank you 🙏
Stevie Ray Vaughan and the Duke are good together..Kim Wilson great on harmonica and singing..band is sweet..Stevie Ray Vaughan plays that strat so sensationally sweet..Stevie is a great fill- in on stage..They make great music coming out to the airwaves to bring us a beautiful sound.
I used to see Stevie and The Triple Threat Revue at The Rome Inn on Sunday night and he was great, I moved back to Kansas City, Missouri and Stevie was going to play at Harlings Upstairs , it was a small club and this was before Stevie had cut any records , anyway we got there early and when we walked in Stevie was playing pinball, I walked over and introduced myself, and told him that I used to see him in Austin, he sat down and we had some drinks, after the show we went to his motel room and talked, we invited him, Tommy , Chris , and Cutter , to lunch the next day, anyway they came to my home and my wife cooked a big meal for them , we drank alot of beer ,smoked some good Oxacan weed and became friends, those guys were all gentlemen, Stevie and the guys kept in touch through the years and the world misses Stevie
@@SchooleyGT Those guys were so humble, at one point Stevie and I were talking and I told him that I thought he was a better guitarist than his brother, he looked at me and said don't ever say that, and I started to repeat myself and Stevie put his hand on my shoulder and said don't ever say that, I looked at him and said I have a big brother too , and he smiled, he was a wonderful person
Duke Robillard and Kim Wilson are both legends..Stevie Ray Vaughan is legend for real and that guitar just talks to Stevie..what a night this is and music is flowing over whelmingly out to the crowd of people..love listening to these legends..wow
Grew up with Duke Robillard use to see him play in the Bon Vue in Narragansett Rhode Island as well as many other places great player. Never knew he jammed with Mr.Vaughan Thanks for posting a great video !!
Legends on stage ..Stevie Ray Vaughan at his best,sounding out the best sound coming from a guitar ..Kim Wilson on song and harmonica with sound going out to the fans,music going out and over the airwaves..
Great video! Thanks for posting this, so glad you 'showed-up' - Robillard, SRV and Kim Wilson! SRV is especially hot on this night....amazing solos! So good to be reminded of these MAESTROS of the blues!
Glenn: Thanks so much for sharing this video clip! Great Stuff! Duke is still churning out the blues up north some where. Miss Stevie for sure! Thankful to still have Jimmy V!
Wow again! Stevie from 7:00 to 9:30!!!!! So goooooooood!!! And then Duke..............amazing. Simply amazing. Literally 2 of my most favorite guitar players of all time. Thanks again.
So at the time SRV was pretty big especially in Texas yeah? The crowd really got their money’s worth and then some. I love this video because you can see and hear Stevie taking a breath before assaulting his guitar. Always thought that sound was from the crowd.
SENSATIONAL..can't get no better then this performance being played by legends on stage and vocal by Kim Wilson is fantastic..Stevie Ray Vaughan is just the best there is when it comes to blue's and Rock...Thank God for GUITARS...
Wow..searching all night ain't no good..R U with me..Kim Wilson is laying it all out on the strings of Stevie Ray Vaughan's electric guitar and the sound is coming through and right on out to you..How grand is this? Terrific is the word I'm searching for..Rhythem and melody is just Boogie Woogie style..and I'm loving it..These music legends are just giving the best performance they can sound out to you..always in remembrance of such a professional outstanding performance..r u with me?
Oh Damn what a Jam it's Sunday afternoon here where I'm at and Damn I would of been sitting at a Blues Club listening to Blues Jam's I miss that,but what a Sunday afternoon Jam on You Tube ✌️♥️
Hi Glenn, is there anyway to know the exact venue and date? When the video starts says 12-87 and I know Stevie did a charity show in Austin Dec 2, 1987, no record of a show in 88'. I would love to have the video in it's original quality if possible, ....., I don't know if that can be!! PM if you want. Thanks again for that gem ;)
srvguitarlegend actual date was 12/2/87. The venue is unknown other than the fact it was an office building warehouse and the event was for Travis County Brown Santa Charity. The date 1988 was used because that’s when I dubbed it. The original was shot on a 3/4” video tape and I have no idea where that is. I transferred the footage to Beta then to digital. This footage is as close as it gets to the original. Hope this helps .
Correction. I did find the original video cassette that I shot it on. My wife said she put it in a safe place. So cool, I thought it was lost. The date on the cassette says November 1988.
Thanks for that fast reply! So if the date is correct the video title will have to be changed? When I was talking about the original video I mean the digital transfer, if it's possible of course. I'm a huge SRV collector, so you know, it will be better than the compressed you tube file I suppose. Thanks again so much!!!
Great entertainment..Stevie Ray Vaughan is ramping up and eases himself into playing great music on his electric guitar ..That's a terrific high quality sound..r u with me? This video is blacker then I normally see things..I'm getting the ECHO..getting every beat in the soundwaves..gonna catch me a couple beats to save along..great performance..Kim Wilson playing that exotic harp so good...and each instrument is coming through the echo..
Who could possibly give this a thumbs down?!?! And imagine if Stevie hadn’t shown up. People would have been stuck with just Duke on guitar. Oh the misery 😄 Great piece of history here! Thanks for posting.
Im 31 a big fan of his thank you for showing up and filming. this is so awesome you can tell hes having a good time and they sound so damn good, every musician.
Hey..this is called SWINGIN..Legends about you..what a performance..and Stevie Ray Vaughan front and Center..awesome..simply AWESOME..wow..Are you with me?
Entertainment begins with Stevie Ray Vaughan and then..we go from here..kim wilson is fantastic ..these legends on stage are phenomenal at what they do..love this music and only the best can perform and sing it..r u with me?
Don't get choked Kim Wilson..singing sounds terrific..Stevie Ray Vaughan is a great guitar strat player and the Duke is great ..The rhythem and lyrics are magnificient..
My friend, Mike, just shared this Video with me ... He said that if I did nothing else tonight that I SHOULD Watch This ... Boy, was he Right ... !! Thank You ... Awesome Video !!

Duke Robillard is very underrated
Great to see and hear. And good to see Duke Robillard in a situation where he was unable to push his way to the front.
He oozed everything he played. The blues was so in this man's blood and dna. God bless him.❤
I will never understand why the good are taken so young. 😢

I Noticed That He Does That - Closed His Eyes & Went "Somewhere Else".....Maybe Where He Is Now....?....🙏❤
go watch Jeff Beck and Stevie doing "Going down". He does the same kind thing, "sorry for upstaging you, it was an honest accident" lol
@@ontariobuds I will definitely do that! Thanks! 🙂
@@xenoscoot let me know when you have watched it.
Stevie Ray Kim And Duke. Whoa. Nothing better
Love finding gems like this! Thnx
