      You are right, my friend. "#1" was an extention of him and that guitar should have been buried with him too. They don't make musicians/guitar players with this much soul and integrity, these days anymore. SRV played REAL guitar!!! Guitar players these days use too many effects, stomp boxes, and digital pedals to try to make their music sound good. I think using too much digital effects ruins the music, to a degree (definitely makes live shows SUCK when they don't play real instrument and just jump around on stage with a microphone). Today, music awards go to folks like, "Pharrell Williams" who thinks they are actual musicians by pressing buttons on a computer/effects processor and making a few beats with a drum machine (SMH,). SRV is what we use to call, "real RAW talent".

      Nothing in the music/audio ... but the way he is acting / moving on stage.
      And after watching Stevie go off on all his solo spots , I realized Stevies eccentricity is the factor.
      So coupled with the fame and eccentricity , he is a chicken that does not know what to do.

      The first time I ever heard his music, it was live. A friend said to me he reckoned I would like it, so I bought a ticket and went. Never heard a single recording up to that point. In fact, got to the venue in the afternoon, found an open door and went in. The band came on stage to sound check (20 minute rendition of Mary had a little lamb) and I walked up and stood at the front of the stage.... So the first time I ever heard SRV play, he was standing 10 feet in front of me in an empty auditorium. The memory is burned into my brain such that it still gives me chills when I recall it, almost 40 years later.

    Stevie Ray is so great he can even play with a huge necklace dangling in front of his guitar

      I don't even like Texas blues much, but damn, I love Stevie. During that whole performance he never gives that Strat a break.

      I'm sure its directed more at the song being called Voodoo Chile than any inherent dislike of the actual song. At least, thats why I'm not giving it a thumbs up as much as I love it.

      Katrina Paton ... I rarely give a thumbs up bc it messes with the algorithm and helps the creator (of which I know nothing about), so I guess with that same logic, I guess one would prefer not to get similar videos in their recommended feed. But this sort, for me I guess, was a thumbs up. I sometimes find it hard to believe that someone would click play on a vid like this without at least knowing somewhat about what they are about to watch.... oh well to each their own

      My wife and I agreed that no matter what happens, our 5th kid will be Stevie. If it’s a boy he’ll be Stephen Ray and it’s a girl she’ll be Stephanie Nicole.
