    You need to watch Texas Flood live at the El Mocombo, by Stevie Ray Vaughan. It is arguably the greatest piece of live music ever performed on camera. I'm serious. Stevie was the greatest musician to have ever graced this world. Lenny, a song he wrote for his wife, literally brings tears to your eyes, not just for its beauty, but because you know that however long you could try, you could never express your love so clearly as he could with his instrument. He played his songs differently every single time he played them, not one being the same as the last!

I was fortunate enough to see him live 3 month's before his untimely death. I remember hearing of his death on the radio. I was in my car and had to pull over to let what I was hearing sink in.

    Jimi created this song but Stevie perfected it! Stevie idolized Jimi, this was his tribute to Jimi. Texas Flood live from the El Mocombo is the most impressive performance I've ever seen! Stevie on stage was a beast but offstage he was a kind & humble soul. He had so many hurdles to jump in his short lifetime but he overcame it all & spent the last 4 years of his life clean & sober and using his spare time helping other people do the same. He is playing in heaven now with Jimi and all those other great bluesman he loved so much.

    Eric Clapton was once quoted as saying something along the lines of not being able to watch Stevie Ray play live for more than a half hour or so without beginning to doubt himself a little. Where others played music, music just flowed from Stevie. You mentioned it, no breaks, he just starts playing and it begins to flow. Somewhere on RUclips there is a lo-fi video of Stevie Ray doing a sound check early in the day before a concert, yawning and looking as if he just rolled out of bed and threw on a trench coat. I think you'll find it nearly as stunning as this, though the sound quality is a bit lower than this is.

    👏🙌‼️ great reaction guys💯. This is an artist so meshed and melded with his guitar that they share the spirit and power of a musical tsunami🎶. He started playing at age 7 because his older brother (by 3 years) played. He instantly got the bug and spent every waking moment playing. He would listen to records of all the blues OG's and taught himself. He found if could sound out the note with his mouth he could find it on the guitar. And because he couldn't see the performances he believed a guitarist should be playing both rhythm and lead so he plays both and sometimes at the same time‼️. I will suggest checking two different performances. One is from this same night at Austin City Limits 1989 called Riveria Paradise written by Stevie after his rehab and recovery dedicated to those still in the grip of addiction. It is a beautiful instrumental showcasing different skills sets with a bit of a jazzy feel. The other is Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland Montreux Jazz Festival 1985. It is a master class in down and dirty blues by two of the best to do it.💙💙🎶 and real magic was happening that night.
    Side note: Double Trouble was a trio for many years but in 1985 they brought on a pianist that brought so much richness to the group. He is top notch as they all are. Thanks for bringing this today👏✌️🙌

    Jimmie Vaughan is still living & playing. He won a Grammy 2 or 3 years ago! He is Stevie's older brother and a self-taught guitarist who inspired 9 year old Stevie to likewise learn without lessons or the ability to read music. Jimmie was a prodigy well known in the Dallas area & dropped out of high school to pursue his dream, eventually settling in Austin and forming the renowned blues band "The Thunderbirds". At 17, Stevie quit school for the Austin music scene himself and after several years of playing clubs with various bands, formed Double Trouble with Chris Layton on drums & Tommy Shannon on bass. Later, Reese Wynans was added on keys. Stevie gave, and gained, respect & admiration from guitar greats such as Albert King, Albert Collins, BB King, Eric Clapton and others, many of who he played with and footage is on RUclips. He died in a helicopter crash in 1990 after a show at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin, at just 35 and nearing the peak of his career. Months before his death, he and Jimmie got to fulfill their dream of making an album together. Family Style, released after Stevie's death, included the song Tick Tock, which was played at Stevie's funeral.

    Jimmy Vaughn is Stevie’s older brother and played guitar first. He had his own band, The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Check out their brotherly love in Pipeline. Enjoy! I always do.

    Great review once again guys. Thank you. I'm so glad to see you dive into the world of SRV. This is an amazing version of Voodoo Chile but you've only scratched the surface of his talents. "Texas Flood" is another great performance. And if you really want to hear a guitar cry, check out this performance of "Riviera Paradise".ruclips.net/video/3c_8VUL5jks/видео.html The guitar actually cries at about the 6:34 mark. Thanks again. You guys are awesome.

    4:17 He had a foot pedal that was a killswitch, that cut out the signal from the guitar to the amp. He would bend a note, and then repeatedly hit the killswitch as he released the note. It's an awesome sound, produced by a fairly simple technique.

    Great reaction!......that guitar was recently tracked down and the body was remarried to the original neck. He had worn out the frets. It now resides on display... " SRV1" is its name.
    He played 13 gauge strings most of his career...13 gauge!...can you imagine ?

    There's never been a better "guitar player" on this planet. He also uses 12 to 15 gauge strings which would rip the fingers of many players, including Stevie's. But it gave his tone a unique sound.

  • @kristahartmann6712
    @kristahartmann6712 Год назад +1

    His voice is a spectacular Texas blues voice...best displayed in the Live video at the Capital Theatre "Ain't Gonna n' Give Up on Love" which he wrote..... that peels paint off the walls...& a solo that gets an ovation & a little smile from SRV as acknowledgement.
    Buddy Guy and SRV horsing around onstage at Buddy's nite club doing "Champagne & Reefer" is fabulous....AND there's a live amateur video of SRV and the great Jeff Beck doing "Going Down" that is wild energy from both.
    All other performances are so compelling by this guy...u WILL be massively entertained.

    You can watch this man play in many videos and you can't help noticing his unique style and tone. Many suggest that the equipment or large gage strings provide these unique qualities. I'm sure these things may contribute to his tone, but it's really just Stevie. You watch him play a song, the string breaks and yet he keeps playing and doesn't miss a lick. He then switches guitars in mid-song and, again, he does it without missing a note.
    I saw a video on RUclips where Stevie was in the audience at a club in Texas where another band was playing on stage. I don't know all the circumstances, but Stevie is seen making his way up to the stage. He greets the members of the band to the applause of the crowd in the club. The lead guitar player of the band hands Stevie his own guitar. Stevie takes the guitar, plucks a few warm up notes, and then launches into the opening riffs of a song they agreed to play. That tone that is so unique to SRV was vividly evident. He didn't tune the guitar, make any adjustments at all. He just took off and ran with it. I think the man could have played Voodoo Chile on a ukulele.

    SRV is on my guitar Mt Rushmore along with David Gilmour, Eddie Van Halen, and the originator of this very song Jimi. When SRV finishes a song we all need a smoke and so does the guitar.

    That "something about him" statement that you used, what it is or what is it? It's a drawing in, it's a powerful attraction/addiction. Most people can't put the right words together to express what they're attempting to communicate about what they are experiencing, emotional, physical, etc. Complete package of what true greatness does to a person when they hear it.

    So, SRV respected Hendrix so much and wanted to buy Jimi's pedal, but instead of sending someone out to talk with Jimi's dad, he got on a plane flew to San Francisco to make an offer for the pedal in person. That pedal in the video is Jimi Hendrix's pedal.

  • @RedSinter
    @RedSinter Год назад +1

    FYI, the WaWa Pedal he's playing with he received from Jimi Hendrix father after he went to him to ask if he would be offended if he covered Jimi's song, because Jimi was one of if not his greatest Idol.

    The two times he squats down during this performance. He actually dropped his pick.... For anyone who has never held one, they are no more than a millimeter or two thick. That he retrieved it without missing a beat....😮 Welcome to a world with SRV in it! Your mind will be completely blown in this rabbit hole ...

  • @sylviamc56

    Pure God given talent! SRV used the heaviest gauge strings made and was able to bend them like no one else could, and breaking them at times only to continue on until he could change his guitar, in mid song. His band ,Double Trouble started out with just the drummer, Chris Layton, and bass player, Tommy Shannon. They added the keyboard player, Reese Wynans to complete the band later. They are all great talents that had to be to keep up with SRV and the way he played. He never played a song the same way. SRV could not read music, purely self taught. His influences were his brother Jimmie Vaughan (Fabulous Thunderbirds), Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Albert King and pretty much all of the blues artists that he grew up listening to. He loved and respected them, and they felt the same about him. Great reaction! You have quite the SRV rabbit hole to go down. "Texas Flood" live at the El Mocambo, "Look at Little Sister" live at Austin City Limits, "Mary Had A Little Lamb" live at Austin City Limits, "Life Without You" live at the Capital Theater. Live is the only way to react to SRV. RIP SRV...

    ooooooo weeeeeeee Born and raised in Dallas! That Texas boy sure could play! RIP Stevie!
    I used to go to bar down in Austin, TX where he used to play. It was called Joes Generic Bar, on 6th street. Tiny place, could hold maybe 75 people at a time, only sold bottled beer, folding chairs only and their sign outside was a bar code. Uneven floors and a small stage, behind which was shrine to Stevie. In the early nineties one night there was really young kid with blonde hair shredding it. When he finished playing he introduced himself as Kenny Wayne Shepperd. True story

    In my opinion, one of the top 5 greatest guitarist (if not the best) ever. That Texas Blues sound is just fantastic, & Stevie's talent just makes that guitar sing with soul like very few others. Glad you guys did this, hope you do many more...he is amazing.
