- "Lenny (Live at the El Mocambo)" by Stevie Ray Vaughan
Stevie Ray Vaughan was a legendary blues guitarist and singer from Texas, known for his soulful playing and powerful vocals. He rose to fame in the 1980s with hits like "Pride and Joy", "Texas Flood", and "The Sky is Crying", which showcased his incredible guitar skills and deep love for the blues. Vaughan collaborated with many other artists throughout his career, including David Bowie (on the song "Let's Dance"), blues icon B.B. King (on the album "In Session") and his brother Jimmie Vaughan (on their “family Style” album). He was also heavily influenced by other blues legends like Albert King, Freddie King, and Jimi Hendrix, whose playing styles he incorporated into his own unique sound.

You know it's serious when SRV sits down.
haha, i know, right? 😁
No denying ..as much as l live for this sound..cant get enough of the unique hats SRV wears..so sue me for noticing..my privilege as a woman 🇨🇦
…
Yes. .....
Helps a lot with the whammy bar thing
Yes sir
It's the single stratiest strat sounding strat song in the stratosphere.
This comment gets my and (more importantly) my strat's approval. Ain't married yet but that ol' girl is definitely my better half lol.
Gotta change the the tubes inv my amp tho (AC30, love it), at least one of em is dieing on me(probably a power tube). It's very temperamental, if I turn it up too loud or push too much signal through it (i.e. pedals) the volume will start to fluctuate randomly. I used to play it so loud the floor would shake and I'd have to stand out 10-15ft from it(one time when my dad picked me up from my dorm he said he could hear me playing from the ground, I was on the 6th floor lol [I remember that day well, I was playing along to the Rolling Stones "gimme shelter" and had the amp cranked way up] , that was when I planned on being a musician for a living (3 or 4 years ago). Now I'm double majoring in Biology and computer science, both of which I love.
Life is a strange ride
@@matthewwynn3025 word yo i wish i had a strat
Say that 10 times fast
I agree but you might need a tissue.. jus saying
As I sit here, with my strat, reading this, only the words "fuck yes it is" come to mind.
This is a simple fact in life that NO ONE can deny…. There will NEVER be another guitarist that can play like he could….simply unbelievable talent….
Agreed!
There already is… they just aren’t famous or known
Amen
ruclips.net/video/5GsRt4wi3a8/видео.html
There are folks like this out there, with a minimal following and all the talent and feel in the world. It's one thing to be able to make such a stunning cover, but it's another thing to come up with such a piece out of thin air. That's what makes SRV so legendary in my mind, the creativity.
you apparently never saw him play in person. The music played him and he translated it to the guitar....you can just as well watch him as the music plays him. Hardly anyone is able to do that. Most people just sit there and play the music.
I still remember the day Stevie died. I was 5 years old . The day after my my birthday. My parents were still partying and everything got somber. It rained and stormed as I saw they were all crying. My aunt said it was Stevie beating his way into heaven....
Could you imagine how much fun life would be if you could play like that...... Undeniably one of the most talented musicians to ever walk this earth. Absolute monster
Imagine practicing for 10,000+++ hours alone in a bedroom or garage. Imagine the sacrifice and the hundreds maybe thousands of missed days and nights with family and friends. Imagine the sacrifices in everything and every part of your life. I doubt it’s as “fun” as you think.
@@freeestyleobsessed I would definitely argue that Stevie was having fun.....but I get what your saying lol
@@freeestyleobsessed I learned to play Lenny just by sitting down in my free time and practicing. Given, it took a lot of my free time and my playing is not now nor ever going to be comparable to Stevie's, but I never had to forfeit days or nights with family and friends. I only had to sacrifice those things which I knew I would not benefit in the long term, such a watching TV, scrolling through social media, or other time wasters. I don't know if Stevie had fun 100% of the time, but I do think the joy he received and gave by playing his music made up tenfold and obviously he did not have to sacrifice his love for his wife to do so, which is how this song came to be written in the first place.
@@freeestyleobsessed It's true. But it simply takes more than 1 lifetime to be able to play like this. Stevie had something in his heart, in his mind, whatever it is, that nobody will ever have.
@@freeestyleobsessed its fun if its what you love dont twist it
I read about how his wife scrapped up $350 to buy him this guitar from a pawn shop because he couldn’t afford it.
He stayed up all night and composed ‘Lenny’ as a sign of gratitude.
Personally I love the soul of the song.
SRV is a human being just like any of us.
He loved his craft and his wife Lenora...
More folks could learn from the man.
RIP
such lie should not be allowed
She came from the star and her name was - Lorena
interesting...thanks for sharing
what you really meant to say is .. more wives can learn from Lenora. Am I right? :D
Woahh
This is a masterclass in dinamics. Sometimes its hard to believe how good this guy was, every single aspect of music: tone, timbre, dinamics, technique, expression...you name it, he was a master of it.
Dinamics is guitar jargon? Dynamics perhaps?
Yep, you're right. I stand corrected.
No. Pedro is right. A misplaced letter doesn’t negate his assertion. Which is dead true.
I love when the drums are at a very restrained minimal mezzopiano and the guitar is nearly inaudible, like ppppp
masterclass yet he didn't know more than basic music theory and couldn't read music. he literally just played what he felt and became one of the greatest blues musicians because he became the epitome of blues and just let it flow from the soul
2:36 I love the one guy just screaming his heart out in the audience.
You know people talk about him and lenny having a rough marriage but in this song he pores so much passion into this and his flow is amazing you know he loved that woman deeply
I was there. Fifteen years old. Spent two days hitch-hiking to get there. Life altering experience.
No you weren't. No you didn't. No it wasn't.
Horseshit. Iirc, this was a rather impromptu performance.
Moataz Mamdouh Crazier things have happened.. its bizarre how in people's own worlds, past their experiences they cannot see.. out there beyond us all are infinite possible lives to be lived..
It was worth it sir
I love You Tube stories that don’t need backing up! I was there too! Fourteen! Walked uphill the whole way to get there. Took me two weeks. But it was all worth it when Stevie played this sweet lick. I was so close, I got hit with Stevie’s sweat. I bottled it... Still have it to this day. Sometimes I take a sip when I want to feel excellent
This song and Riviera Paradise are two of SRV’s finest works
Dude love those songs!
Riviera Paradise definitely soothe the Savage Beast
Chilling con carne another one too
i 'm going to have these two songs played in my funeral whenever that day comes .
Agreed
Still missed, millions try but can’t touch SRV
Amen!
No need for an alternative high, the Blues can set you free!!
ironic considering the laundry list of drugs this man was off that night
Big up to the rhythm section following this man to another planet and back. Groove well supplied. Yeeeeeeeeeah brooo.
Played that whole concert with a pink pick too, what a complete badass..
Guys, I know times are hard, but think about it... this is the music we turn to when we have time to relax after having a few drinks. And we think, "Wow, I wish I was here!" But guys, we were so lucky that this was recorded and it sounds amazing! Just close your eyes with your modern headphones on. It feels like you're here, you know what I mean? Goddamn! All this technology and AI and stuff, but we still come back to this! And it's amazing! I hope you guys are having an incredible time! I love you all! This is what life is about! I love you and I wish we could share this together!
God bless
You're awesome lol
I think we just did brother.. and we can be proud to say so. Keep on spreading that ❤
And here we are.
Cheers
One of the most beautiful fucking things I’ve ever heard in my life.
This song is for my brother who passed yesterday. He was only 32 years old and loved this guy. This is for you little brother. Give the uncles and cousin a hug and kiss for me. I miss and love you. Always. Cheetah
So
Sorry about your brother
Ah man I'm so sorry to hear that you lost your brother, he clearly had great taste in music and who knows maybe he's chilling with stevie right now, enjoy your life my friend
Same here: my brother died in 1989 at age 32. Listening to SRV gives me sense of peace and acceptance .. may the Lord be with you. :)
My sincere condolence 🙏 💔👏🙌🙏✝️
actually he said its for his wife forever and always.
Every single note that he ever played came out of the depths of his soul. That’s why no-one could ever duplicate his sound; try as they may.
So right. It was the tempo and emotion in the very notes. He was raw, honest, creative and passionate, true.
That's what he would have us do when we play. He said once something like " dont try to remember what you did ( technically I suspect.) when you sounded good, rather let emotion drive the instrument. He practiced what he preached.
He expressed himself through the guitar. Unlike most musicians today, you can hear and see his soul when he performs. Unreal talent, undoubtedly sent by God to inpsire. RIP, never forgotten.
type in Tolow16 your welcome
He also practiced a lot, I believe
Stevie Ray played with so much passion the guitar wants a cigarette after the song's over 😉
This performance is such a perfect demonstration of dynamics that every guitarist can learn from.
Absolutely, think the same.
HEY, I'm copying LITTLE WING TOO!
what's dynamics if you have the time to explain, I'm starting to learn the guitar now that I've just finished school
@@werndogga To be simply put, it's just like softening and loudening your voice when singing. It helps in adding your playing more pronunciation and expression. If you look at Stevie's playing, not all the notes are played with the same aggression/picking. Some are picked hard and some are kept calm by picking gently. It adds up so much expression to the song. Hope you got that doubt cleared now, cheers!
@@werndogga lmao what?
About a year into me picking up the guitar, I was smoking a blunt with one of my buddies, and this concert came on PBS. At the time I had no idea who SRV was or even what blues guitar playing was about. I can still remember being completely floored. I had never seen anything like it before and as a guitar player still in his infancy, watching Stevie's command of the instrument was like watching someone do the impossible. I had barely learned my basic open chord shapes and couldn't fathom how he was able to play all over the fretboard and make such insanely beautiful music. Fifteen years later, his playing is still magical to me. Although I've learned many of his songs and licks, I can still see the beauty and complexity of his playing. But no matter how many of us guitar players can sit down and play Lenny note for note, I don't think anyone of us will be able to play it with the amount of soul and pure expression as the man himself. What a gift.
Totally feel the same way
Damn straight. Couldn't say it better.
beautifully said my man :)
I just read your comment and this song started my life after my first blunt with my father, and I could remember exactly how I felt with those first harmonics.
Well, he wrote the song about his wife and it's very personal, so there's no way anyone could replicate the soul in it. The only way you can play something with the same amount of passion as he does here, is play your own stuff.
There is nothing more crossroads than this. Love you Stevie Ray
Stevie will ALWAYS be MY number 1 guitarist. I was raised old school and my pops used to keep me up all night while he watched documentaries on Stevie. Also, I’m from Dallas and anyone from here knows we take pride in the fact Stevie is from oak cliff.
it makes me tear up how fucking good he was
This song is still massively underrated.
By who?
I'd imagine bards don't play it in Westeros ay ser barristan
@@codythedoggo7671 Stevie Ray Bard
I’m rating it PG 13, some grandparental guidance suggested
Sure the fuck is what a legend he’s playing for the man up stairs snd giving him lessons greatest White Boy to ever play the bules nobody even comes close light years away how great I am to be able to grow up to this Just WOW he dose it with ease
Straight outta heaven! You can't convince me otherwise.
Many copy, but none will ever be on his level. The songs he played will always be remebered as his.
I don't know if I'm more amazed by Stevie's performance, or the fact that 839 people disliked this.
There's a lot of lost souls out there
I figure it is just a way for us to figure the ratio of people who meant to click thumbs up and accidentally hit thumbs down without noticing, no other explanation is plausible.
@@kenthomas4668 yes it's happen while watching this through small monitor
Such mastery of the instrument only comes from a phenomenal dedication to practice. And Stevie started at such a young age, too.
He makes that stratocaster sing.
Really nice! -Peter age 73
When Stevie got to heaven God asked Stevie to teach him how to play guitar.
Then God is the luckiest guy in the universe...😊
Stevie makes smoking look so badass.
Smoking still gives you lung cancer, man... The licks and solos are badass, not the cigarettes...
I like to think SRV and Hendrix are jamming in heaven...could you imagine what that would sound like?
Not for our earthly ears to behold
pure soul brother
Well, one day we will!
Oh wow, that'd really be something...I don't know why but thinking of that blew my mind for a second....it'd be too incredible for us mortals and somewhat inconceivable
Stevie, good probability after talking to Bassist Tommy Shannon. James Marshall, probably in Hell
No kidding!
SRV once said Jimi Hendrix came to him in a dream one night and taught him how to play like the legend once did. Sounds crazy, but I think you would be silly to not believe that’s the god honest truth. No one on earth has played the guitar with more expertise and pure musicianship than Stevie did. We’re all waiting for someday, hopefully soon, to hear that he came to someone in a dream and passed the torch just like Jimi did. Fly on sweet angel SRV Forever
One of the best ever. Like all the other greats, when he played he poured every ounce of his soul into his music. He was a tortured soul and its that pain and suffering that wails and comes thru in his music. This can't be taught. I see guys on youtube cover this song note for note but it just doesn't have the same impact. They are copying and trying to replicate but what Stevie had wasn't premeditated or scripted, he was just speaking thru his guitar. He opened his heart and showed it for all to see. When a musician does this, thats when they connect with the listener on a different level. Stevie, I love you man, so sad you are gone...may you rip
….but still underrated 😢😢RIP Sir . Best Guitarist ❤
I think this may be one of the most beautiful songs ever written
This is the most beautiful song ever written
This is the song I want at my funeral I'm 70. It speaks to all the love. Treasure and hardshps of life. It's a perfect love song.
This is the most beautiful song ever expressed... love , heartbreak, hope, defeat, resolve.... I am 70. This song speaks truth to everything that is called living...life.
@@katejohnson2683 i don't give a damn what they play on my funeral tbh
Can not do anything but agree..
🙏🏻❤️🎸
This jam is so fire. No doubt SRV was the king of the blues.
0:12 "play smoke on the water!" hahahaha
There are dislikes on this? WTF?
Some people suck
Jealousy and ignorance!
Idiots
There is no shortage of bad taste on the internet . SRV Rules .
Play this at my funeral❤️
Roses are red, violets are blue.
When I listen to Stevie, my neighbors do, too.
Collin Thibodeaux 🏆
ed h with all respect, I don’t think it is... ✌🏻❤️& SRV
fuckin A right!
Best comment
wish i was yr neighbour =)
True Stevie fans stay til the last note, what a performance omg we need Stevie back, Lord....rip
The quiet bow aches my heart. Miss him everyday
No words needed, take notes gents
I remember in 1983 nobody in the guitar community cared about the blues. Everybody was into Eddy van Halen and stuff. Then - whoosh! - SRV appeared. The guitar-world changed forever. He tought us to put emotional meaning into every little tone. The El Mocambo version of "Lenny" is a superb example for this.
Everybody do yourself a favor: Lean back, listen to this with headphones, put every source of interruption (telephone and stuff) out of reach. Just you and the music. Allow yourself to dive deeply into it and listen to the story, Stevie tells. Maybe you'll see colors or pictures.
I do this on a daily basis bud 👍
Kind of hard when you're watching with your phone lol
That same thing happened to some of us older players when we heard, Albert, and Freddie and B>.B way back and then came Clapton and Hendrix. Soooo
The shame of EVH's influence is that he spawned a whole load of soulless copycat shredders when his own playing was remarkably ferocious and full of great blues and feel. I mean it'll never be SRV 'Lenny' or 'Riviera Paradise' level (what is?) but there is some great stuff in there.
Yes! To be honest I'm not too impressed so much with listening to stuff like "eruption" it's not really something you can listen to over and over for hours and feel a sense of beauty....not like SRV's performance here, this is beautiful....I'd rather hear playing like this than playing that is "too acrobatic" - Jeff Beck......
"Please don't put me out yet. Just a little longer." - SRV's cigarette
It STILL amazes me when top ten list of Guitarist are published and they don’t have this absolute master on them. He is one with his instrument. There is no beginning nor end. A partnership built out of love and respect for each other. Simply put, Stevie Ray was the guitar. R.I.P.
He’s among the 5 most of the time cos of stuff like this I swear
Love and miss you forever. SRV 💙
The best guitarist on history. He played with soul, heart, honesty and love. No other like him. Thanks for so much, Stevie. Love from Argentina❤️
As far as "guitar heroes" go, nobody could match this guy.
I keep telling people this! You’re the best my brotha! I miss you big time Stevie! We all love you too! Love Jimmy!
What about the green day guy lolol
This makes me want to go play the guitar, and quit all together at the same time.
You should get inspired by his playing
I feel you, bruh! Amen!
Jeff Russell I completely get what you’re saying
SRV would not want you to quit
Each time he does one of those licks I just think to myself "woah! I'll try to add this to my own acoustic playing style :D, sounds cool!"
Breaking out the Buddy Guy cerca Stone Crazy. Love it.
I can't seem to not ,go a day , not listening to Stevie Ray Vaughan.. l will listen to other stuff, but I will always , come back to his music.. because I can't live without him , in my life..His influence, on me , I will take to my grave.. He was a musical angel, sent to earth , to inspire each & everyone, of us, to be better human beings, he taught ,how to be nice to everyone, he spoke to me & I listened. Got rid of my vices, because of him, his message of love.. To this day I will always ,love him ,his music, forever..
He's my spiritual food, & ever so ,tasty.......🙏❤️🥂🎸🎶🎹👍😄👏😲👍👊
Yes!! A day without him doesn't feel complete. ❤
It's simple folks.
When God spoke.
Stevie Answered.
RIP SRV
And he said srv you will copy
LITTLE WING
my god, he must have loved her!!! ... beautiful
the fucking soul and feelings he gave when playing..
a great loss
Mayer and Asato take much of this. Licks and sound, so typical.
RIP SRV. Legend.
I've watched this countless times, doesn't lose any of the magic from the 1st time to the 100th
Same. Been watching for several years and it never gets old.
My ringer on my phone. Stevie calling?
Man the direction he was heading with his music one can only dream of hearing what Stevie would play today
Stevie making love to that guitar is a beautiful thing and it sooths my soul on so many levels...thank you Stevie...the world truly is better because you lived...💕
Had a gifted Nashville guitarist friend play this as my wife walked down the isle. It was perfect. Thanks for everything Stevie.
SRV is the man but I’m always so impressed by Double Trouble, always so cool and collected behind Stevie.
I got the chance to see Stevie twice in Los Angeles before he passed away I just wanted him to keep on playing his songs it was so awesome
Undeniably the greatest of all times says I
Is anyone else here celebrating his life on this sad day? RIP Stevie. We love you.
I cant believe its been 30 years since we lost Stevie...his music can still drive me to tears to this day...we lost so much that night 30 long years ago
So him and jimi both died in September ?
The GREATEST!!!
Yes I did just can't believe he's been gone so long. Going to order his book today Texas flood.love you stevie ray vaughan. I'll shake your hand one day in heaven. There no one like you are never will be. Missing you
@@john-zf8ig Stevie passed August 27th, 1990
And 9 months later the guitar had a baby
Classic comment man.
You are cliche Angel, hence your comment, but I am sure you will disagree as a matter of course, what I'm not sure of is whether or not you know the true meaning of the word or it's correct contextual placement. Yes yes making love to the guitar and all that, but this man is one of the rare few who actually does, or "did" I should say.
Ah, I see you're a tele man. i can respect that.
Classic youtube.
The comment arguing is the whole reason I come to RUclips.
Legendary player. I love SRV'S voice in the beginning too, it's so damn cool. "Goes out to my wife. Always." 🔥
A women is the reason for this.. and I love it! Thank you SRV and thank you lenny..SRV FOREVER
The passion in this song is the way I feel about the love of my life, and Stevie is the only one that gets it 🎸
so beautiful and also so terrifying. The sweat dripping from his face, the cigarette shaking in his lips, and the guitar playing. I'm glad he as able to get sober before he died, rest in peace stevie ray vaughan
Not really. If he were a drunk when the helicopter crashed he probably would have lived as most drunks do in crashes.

Я искала эту запись,!
И теперь я в восторге как ребенок!!
Seriously, he is probably the the very few if not only musician that sounds waaaay better live than the studio recordings.
Jyst fyi, thats what jazz is all about.
01warmus this is the blues man c'mon.
Well said
If you think this performance sounds better than the original, you are high or have bad ears, I could hear every time he was flat or missed a note, can never compare to studio version!
Hendrix was the same.
I don't think I've ever seen a man lay open his heart for everyone to see quite like this.
Good LORD is he awesome.. 💗to his wife. that remark about him sitting down is right. SRV forever. :)
I miss the 80s and I've never even been there
The El Mocambo was magic and Stevie here is In it
This song has single handedly kept me from blowing my brains out on more than one occasion. Thank you SRV RIP
Stay strong brotha. Holler if you need anything or someone to talk to
Amen that's what it was meant to do touch someones life in a positive way
Same man, same.
This here medicine is the good stuff. 🎵🎵🎵
gotta love the riviera paradise too.. he rips that at the "El Macambo' too but I'm having a tricky time finding it
I miss srv so bad!
Such talent!! He made that guitar talk and scream. Love!
I'm 13 and discovered Stevie thanks to my grandma. The day I learned of his passing I was crushed, we love you Stevie! Keep rockin' out in heaven!!
He was a mastet
Grandparents and family can be such a source of great music and knowledge, hold them dear
Im so happy for you to discover Stevie, and grateful to your Grandma for introducing you to this rare being and the joy of his music. I also am showing my Granddaughter this magic. She's your age. Making sure this legend will never die. RIP, King SRV.
I thank your Grandma for showing you the true meaning of great music!! She is raising you right young friend!
Youngin (probably 14 now) I hope you still come to these songs. I will say this cherish the moments of music with your grandma. Those moments are memories you won't ever forget I'm grateful for the ones I had with mine.
You may be cool
......but you’ll never be Stevie Ray Vaughn smoking a cig while playing Lenny cool
fact!
Michael may your are the money with that comment
Im not srv... but i can play lenny and solo for 2 hours straight whilst downing half a dozen beer and a couply blunts to go with.. time is endless when you love guitar and music.. ask my partner hahahaha
But yes.. agree lmao
@@henarewihapi8054 you are no SRV tho
It's a delicious seeing srv performance inspired to his wife, shows not only the best top guitar player he was but the human in loved too... Actually not a normal human features
The pretties melody to date, yes sir....
I tripped on shrooms for the first time last year in October and I knew I had to sit down and listen to music. While im a frequent weed smoker, the high was so much different. Everything around felt so much bigger than I was. I ended up watching a lot of classic rock in RUclips, but when I got to this video, it just hit me. Idk how else to explain it. Watching this video on shrooms was the best thing I’ve ever done. Some of those close up shots of SRV made it feel like I was sitting in a chair 2 feet in front of him watching him play for. It almsot brings me to tears of joy talking about it. It was like I was discovering guitar playing for the first time again. It was awesome to experience as a human being and a musician, and it really made me wonder if how amazing I felt was how the audience felt in this video. Watching one of the greatest guitarists of all time just plug into his soul and play for you. Seriously. SRV doesn’t plug into an amp. He plugs into his soul.
Yeah dude I love listening to great music high af
That sounds awesome I’m doing it.
Kinda sad that people do drug apology in a stevie video when he tried so hard to make people quit drugs. Oh well, enjoy the music I guess
@@Charlyzard_ssb yeah man, he said that coz he on higher level of mind and soul. all i need to reach his level is do smoke or shroom
That was my first experience with this song. Mushrooms and SRV ⚡️
1:40 When that smoke comes out of his nose and that lick is playing. Damn. Gives me shivers. So cool.
I’m probably 7.2 million of these views. Incredible stuff.
The best that we were ever so lucky to have, me he rest in peace.
1:38
Don't smoke but holy heck, the combination of the music and that breath out was badass.
The music community misses you dearly 💔
Stevie was the best!!! I miss him.
That is why i love the fender strat
Still blows my mind that his primary guitar, ‘Number 1’, which was discovered to have incorrectly overwound pickups from the factory, that gave it its distinctive sound, ended up in his hands. A singularly unique instrument for a singularly unique artist.
Once you play enough guitars you realise there's no such thing as a "standard" or "typical" guitar, each one is so different in how they feel and sound
Kind of like Peter Green's Les Paul.
From a guy who knows a guy that worked at fender , when they looked into the guitar , its was not over would , not even high , 5.6 to 6.Ok ohms , don't no what order.take it with a grain of salt , many folks say this or that, who knows .I do no heavy strings , high action and heavy picking gets close .If you haven't all ready , look at sliders 59 srv pickups and the guy that demos them .Tommy ? For get his last name .
@@hopebrowning6300tommy Katona I'm 98 percent sure
The original Lenny stratr also had big knot in the wood which also gave it its distinctive sound. Fender custom shop talked about it in one of their films
I’m like damn Stevie is playing this slow blues awfully fast?? Then think, well he was messing with the nose candy at this time so maybe?? Then realized I had it on 1.25 speed…. I’m a Dum@$$!! RIP SRV.
I think he was sober here but your comment about how do you play slow blues so fast...I was laughing out loud ❤
I wondered how many of those views are me… I feel like I watch this at minimum once a month.
So thank you for the upload
Nobody that’s ever lived or is alive today can compare to Stevie!!! I’ll die on that hill. RIP
Playing the most beautiful song, named after his wife, on a guitar named after his wife, that was a special gift from his wife... This is inception at its most wonderful i suppose.
There are no real musicians anymore. Only people who sing songs they didn't write, with a voice they don't have. RIP.
Goes out to her. Always. I love you Stellbell. Hope you find this when i'm gone. It was our song.
SRV and this song to his wife is the primary example of a guitar in the right hands!! Stevie was and always will be one of the best Blues players of all time, ask the best of the blues players and they will agree! Can only imagine what he could have contributed to the music industry. The music and the world is a lesser place without him, I know mine is!
I'll tell you I agree for sure
I love this. Let’s be honest though. Without Pablo Escobar we wouldn’t be watching this. I love this dude.
