Anyone doing vocals on his songs loses something only his vocals can convey. Never was the blues/ TexMex ever done so expertly on both sides of vocals and his guitar being a separate entity on stage for most but SRV never sacrificed the vocals for the guitar or guitar for the vocals. Too bad Jimi couldn’t of seen SRV cuz he would of been entranced while also being entertained smiling throughout his set. SRV was never trying to copy Jimi but pay tribute while making Jimi’s music an extension of Stevies set but not just some garage band copying their heroes music.
I met SRV in 1984 at Antones on Guadalupe St. in Austin, Texas when he came up to my table during a sound check for Doug Saham. I bought him a beer and we talked for about 30 minutes. Then the year of 1985 his career exploded. I went to his memorial in Austin with Jimmy and His mother, Martha. Then I contributed to his statue on Town Lake/ Lady Bird Lake. His death was the end of the uprising of the blues which started when Eric Clapton started using blues legends as opening acts. I use to play drums for James Cotton of Cotton/Winter fame. What a great I've had playing drums. RIP Mr. Vaughan.
Incredible story! You are so lucky I am positively envious of you! You were there and experienced things we all can only dream about! You must have special favor with the Cosmos! All I can do is cherish your part in the big picture... Thank you for enriching us all!
I met Jimmie a few years ago in Santa Cruz CA. What a nice person. I can only imagine what it must have been like to meet his brother because the Apple didn't fall far from the tree. Love Your Story too!!!
@@craiggoodman7 Yes, my 52 years as drummer has been quite a ride. Meeting and talking with SRV would be the greatest happening in anyone's life but for me it was meeting Roy Orbison in 1988 here in Austin and Chuck Berry a few years later. Man, talk about a mind blower!! Glad you enjoyed it and I'm gonna write a book one day.
Although his mainstream career only spanned seven years, he is considered to be one of the most iconic and influential musicians in the history of blues music, and one of the greatest guitarists of all time.

To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life.
His playing is absolutely unparalleled. The cleanest live leads I've ever heard. He does not make mistakes!!! An earlier reviewer said it best..... He doesn't just play the guitar, SRV is the guitar and the guitar is SRV. RIP, your brilliance will live on forever 🎸🤘🏼❤
his Voodoo Chile solo is a masterwork in and of it's own, he knows exactly where he's going with every detail of it, yet it has all the dangers and spectical of a raging chemical fire.
His playing is so natural and organic... it seems like he is not playing the guitar he is the guitar... at that level you can do anything with an instrument. To me the best there was and ever will be.
I was looking for that kind of comment here. 100% agreed. Like you said, he was not playing guitar, he was guitar. I have never seen any other guitar player to play so natural way with this instrument. It's like he was born with guitar and guitar was part of his body. Just pure talent... Great loss. Still having some tears when thinking about him...
I always told my dad he's the only player I've ever seen play and then thought to myself, the guitar 🎸 is not good enough for him. He just has such total control and command of it at all times. Damn mind blowing shit.
And I thought Angus Young was the best guitar player alive when Back and Black came out. I apologize for my ignorance Stevie! You remain the greatest to this day.
I’m with ya man. I’m 45 and just learning about Stevie’s brilliance now. What a talent , I wish I would of clued in years and years ago. Simple fucking awesome ! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 !
Stevie was one of the greatest blues guitarist ever! I would however like to give a shout out to the drummer who had the greatest talent filling in with Stevies offbeat and his tendency to never play the same song exactly the same so the drummer had the difficult job of keeping on beat. He did it with a professionalism like no other! And so then the beat goes on...
Hats off to you for bringing that up. A lot of of people don't realize what a tough time accompanying musicians have with such a fluid, yet ever-changing variety, (due to talent), in a song. They all came through! All professionals 👍
you're right, when someone is so entwined with the guitar it speaks directly from him, without thought , pure emotion. it is rarer than people think, but SRV was the greatest exponent in my opinion
Thanks - that does not get mentioned enough. Double Trouble was an apt name for his rhythm section - tight, creative and always locked in to what Stevie was doing.
Thank God for this video. This will still be played 500 years from now. They may wonder about the pipe and the hat, but the ass kicking face melting blues will still grab them
3 of the tightest musicians ever,every time i watch footage of SRV,you can see how much Tommy loved been up there with him,R.I.P. Stevie,love ya man.❤😢
I'm so glad he got clean & sober, and had a few good years to genuinely enjoy his life, off stage and on! Like Jimi, he was a humble, unassuming, and kind man at heart. Thanks for posting this gem! RIP SRV
Goat! Best guitarist ever! He owned that piece of wood and ive never heard anyone play as precise and hard driving with such intensity for a whole show in my life! Stevie was indeed the best and played with such feeling and soul just phenomenal, extraordinary a once in 100 lifetimes kind of talent and he got better in the years ahead when he became clean and he talked about how close he was to overdosing and that he was sober and clean and wanted to help as many people as he could! Exemplary human being with a big heart , a damn good decent caring person who didnt give a shit about fame and just wanted to play!!! Absolutely devastating loss for all of us, I hope I can meet him on the other side! CJS....
I can’t imagine him losing his title. He is so rare and there isn’t a single thing anyone could to improve anything. Not one note. Not in feeling or passion or skill - clothing choices - : ) Not - nothing. He is it. WThe only thing anyone else could do if they had this level of magic and skill (Ha!) would be to have fantastic new songs. And everybody (me) would pine even more Stevie. And I’d be back here. But that person at best would be as good…. Nope that’s just ridiculous. Because it’s all the elements of art and precision and not “playing” but being with his guitar. I can’t explain it. Not going to happen. Someone great but different will come along but there’s great and then there’s Stevie. I really love this guy. He got me through hundreds of miles driving in the dark during a horrific divorce - my kids grew up singing in the car… I guess his struggles make him so likable - I root for the underdog, but he’s hardly an underdog but for difficulties. So he seems sweet, human, best guitarist in history past , present, future… no - no one will ever come along that would be in his league. Not sure why I even went through that exercise, but the answer never changes. He broke the mold - and some guitar strings in the process. He’s the GOAT. He should get a Medal of Honor or be posthumously Knighted. Nah - hed love to dress up for that though. Oh, what a fun, wonderful being. He had a temper. He just seems so human.
We were lucky to have stevie for as long as we did ,he was not just the GREATEST GUITAR GENIUS EVER , but a great person !!! R.I.P stevie and thank you for all the love you passed our way ❤!!!
Catch a band called The Hoax their guitarists Jesse Davies and John Amore have the techniques and tone down to a fine art , The Hoax toured with Buddy Guy and there’s video of BG conceding to JD in horse shoe shaped jam , there’s a lot of vids here on you tube well worth watching , the influence of SRV is obvious and their sound derivative but it doesn’t detract from their brilliance
Stevie didn't bring his Dumble Steel String Singer on this trip so he's playing out of 2 Vibroverbs (one powering the Vibratone Leslie), a Super Reverb, and the gap of the Dumble was filled by two cranked Twin Reverbs! Insane tone!!
I have to say the same. I thought I've seen every SRV video there is on YT but somehow missed this one. There is something a particular special about this performance. And especially, Texas Flood. He found entirely another level to represent "home" while abroad. It's perfection.
Talking big balls...bassist Tommy Shannon played bass for two of the greatest guitarists to ever live...he was Johnny Winter's bass player when Johnny first started as well as being in Stevie Ray's Double Trouble. Nice!
Tommy Shannon is one of a very few people who can say that he played at the original Woodstock God bless these guys they're all my original Texas homeboys and they make me proud as a papa.🇨🇱🎶🎸🎙️☮️🤟👍
You have had alot guys who came after Stevie that were trying to sound like him and cop his stuff....and you have had a few that have done a pretty good job of it...John Mayer...Kenny Wayne Sheppard..and a few others...but make no mistake about it...no one and I mean no one will ever touch this guy... period...🎸🎸🎸🎸
Россия! За Стиви и всех Отцов техасского блюза за всех родоначальников этого направления оторвёт башку! Не смотря на войну, и все санкции с наушниками в ушах,и АК 7.62 в руках , будет рвать всех и вся на своём пути...🎸🎸🤘🤘
One of the best Power-Trios ever compiled. Great move adding Reese Wynans a few months after this. The keyboards filled a lot of empty space and gave Stevie the ability to stretch a bit stylistically.
The tour of Japan rocked the blues with that voice of Stevie Ray Vaughan and the way he played his guitar on the floor my God what an amazing man he was.
So sad he died at 35. Wished he wouldn't have gotten in helicopter after dreaming of seeing his funeral. God showed him he was gonna die, but not when or how. So sorry music lost him, but for me, he lives on.
What he does with the guitar seems so effortless. He could go on for hours & never play the same riff twice, it was all new. No one can top him & no one ever will. He had a gift from On High.
He is great but that's not a clean tone. That's an amp in full overdrive pushed by something and a chorus. It just sounds clean because it's a glassy tone.
man that transition from tin pan alley into dirty pool is soo fuckin sick. the way he just turns to his band and yells "DIRTY POOL" and they know exactly what to do is so masterful.
Nobody talks about his vocals. The man could sing, too!
not wrong there..
That's what I'm saying! Loved his vocals as well!!!!!
So fucking on point
Anyone doing vocals on his songs loses something only his vocals can convey. Never was the blues/ TexMex ever done so expertly on both sides of vocals and his guitar being a separate entity on stage for most but SRV never sacrificed the vocals for the guitar or guitar for the vocals.

I love that there are great things on RUclips. SRV lives on as we watch him repeatedly on our screens.

Judas Priest fans in Japan know how to throw down. They were captured historically as great recordings.
Japanese people are very emotional underneath the social structures❤

Well, Angus always said he wasn't even the best guitar player in his own band, or even his own family.
My dad got so him live.. ever since I was a kid I’ve got to enjoy this excellence, spoiled
Don't apologize. You just hadn't heard the true gospel yet. Welcome to the fold my brother.
This is one of the greatest guitar performances ever recorded, A true master of the art of Texas blues backed by a superb Double Trouble on this.
yup, and he couldn't read music

That guitar didn't get off so lucky either. Best way to burn out your car battery I'd say!
😂😂😂
lmao
You need to keep the car started. And for a powerful amplifier, you may need an alternator mod as well.
Stevie gave Voodoo child justice better than any other artist could.
I believe the word we are all struggling to say is virtuoso. His command of the guitar.is unparalleled. Amazing.

It's Friday night, just worked 10 hours and enjoying a beer hearing this concert for first time. God bless SRV.
igual! desde Argentina
Oh my god how I wish you were still alive and playing RIP we miss you ❤❤❤❤❤❤
His music changed my life. And I don't play guitar.
Great Testament! You Should Find Out More About Stevie The MAN! He Was The Sweetest & Most Caring Human On The Planet!!❤❤❤ I Miss Him SO Very Much!!
Same for me: Not a musician, but amazed how deep SRV was in the flow/zone... like Neil Young or Prince.
@@inlakesh555very true and an Amazing musician like Prince, Stevie Wonder or Elton John on Stage with Real players music and true musics...

A legend that can never be replaced
you're right, when someone is so entwined with the guitar it speaks directly from him, without thought , pure emotion. it is rarer than people think, but SRV was the greatest exponent in my opinion
He managed to produce the sounds of multiple guitars on most of his songs. RIP WORLD'S BEST GUITARIST.
we lost him? no, we always have him. in our heart
May God’s peace be with you in times of trouble, offering you solace and reassurance that He is always by your side, ready to support and uplift you.
I have three words for this, only three; BEAU - TI - FUL! Gentlemen, as far as we listen to his music SRV remains alive.
As a trio, they were great, but adding Reese on keyboards was the topper! Truly, one of the best...SRV, my favorite!
He plays with Joe Bonamassa these days😎
He had kick ass bandmates
Thats how!!
Thanks - that does not get mentioned enough. Double Trouble was an apt name for his rhythm section - tight, creative and always locked in to what Stevie was doing.
Still in complete and utter awe even after all of these years.
Holy CRAP!!! First time watching this one, and I'm just...there are no words. RIP SRV

If it was possible to get the vote all Musician’s and fans from 60’s to the present, SRV would be voted as the #1 guitar player of all time.
the tone of his guitar is incredible
HUGE sound from Chris and Tommy, a freaking trio. Stevie will always be in my heart.
one of the best, gone far too soon by no fault of his own, tragic.
Bad to the freaking bone! I'll never tire of him and his musical genius!
Thank God for this video. This will still be played 500 years from now. They may wonder about the pipe and the hat, but the ass kicking face melting blues will still grab them
Stevie was truly among the very best ever to perfect the craft 🎸
Still shed a tear when I hear him play. What a tremendous loss to the music world. Rest in Rock SRV.
Its runnin down my nose right now
Greatest of all time!
3 of the tightest musicians ever,every time i watch footage of SRV,you can see how much Tommy loved been up there with him,R.I.P. Stevie,love ya man.❤😢
This performance is my favorite by SRV. He was such an amazing talent taken from us WAY too soon. #MyFav #RIP
Seriously, I've watched this so many times! Live at the el mocambo is insane but the intensity and precision he has in this performance is unmatched!
Jumpin' JAKE Flash so much cocaine. He’s brilliant!
Ingvar Zakharov yeah he started to lose control during this time
This man was a gift from god, and now he is ROCKING THE FUCKING UNIVERSE!
I started watching one video earlier this evening & here it is 2:30 am and I can't stop, looks like another all nighter!!!Damn straight!
Paying homage to Albert with the pipe... awesome!
One of the greatest guitar blues players of all times !...
I remember getting a VHS tape of this concert from a friend and I played it so much it broke so I never gave it back, the tape saved my life
And yet we all this on RUclips now . Sure some kids have no clue what a VHS is
Couldn't stand the weather, incredible version
He is the best guitar player in the world
FACT!
Respect for the true Blues he had💙💙💙

At 35:49 you can truly see his love for his craft. The emotion with which he plays is so beautiful to witness. Rest in peace Stevie.

@@hutch_hunta Great player but for me it's Buddy Guy every time.
You have had alot guys who came after Stevie that were trying to sound like him and cop his stuff....and you have had a few that have done a pretty good job of it...John Mayer...Kenny Wayne Sheppard..and a few others...but make no mistake about it...no one and I mean no one will ever touch this guy... period...🎸🎸🎸🎸
Россия! За Стиви и всех Отцов техасского блюза за всех родоначальников этого направления оторвёт башку! Не смотря на войну, и все санкции с наушниками в ушах,и АК 7.62 в руках , будет рвать всех и вся на своём пути...🎸🎸🤘🤘
Total concurrence amigo. Never be a better.
One of the best Power-Trios ever compiled. Great move adding Reese Wynans a few months after this. The keyboards filled a lot of empty space and gave Stevie the ability to stretch a bit stylistically.
The tour of Japan rocked the blues with that voice of Stevie Ray Vaughan and the way he played his guitar on the floor my God what an amazing man he was.
So sad he died at 35. Wished he wouldn't have gotten in helicopter after dreaming of seeing his funeral. God showed him he was gonna die, but not when or how. So sorry music lost him, but for me, he lives on.
Love you Jimmie, Love you Steve! The Vaughan Brothers touch my soul :-) thank you our Lord in heaven
What he does with the guitar seems so effortless. He could go on for hours & never play the same riff twice, it was all new. No one can top him & no one ever will. He had a gift from On High.
Speechless❤❤
Wow! He was an amazing performer for sure. Gone way too soon. RIP SRV.
Played with mostly clean tone true great player one of the best
He is great but that's not a clean tone. That's an amp in full overdrive pushed by something and a chorus. It just sounds clean because it's a glassy tone.
man that transition from tin pan alley into dirty pool is soo fuckin sick. the way he just turns to his band and yells "DIRTY POOL" and they know exactly what to do is so masterful.
Who gave this a thumbs down???????? THAT IS CRAZY.............THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
A idiot
