Recent college graduate here. Young adult. Stevie Ray Vaughan fan. God how I wish I had a time machine. It's almost depressing how downhill mainstream music has gone. This concert was a Spring Break event, the audience being comprised of mostly college students. Think about that and compare it with the environment and touring artists you'd likely encounter at any major Spring Break attraction today. Compare the positivity, musicianship, and integrity here with what's commonplace among college age events today. No vulgar, mindless lyrics relentlessly spewed to interrupted dance rhythms. There's no violence here, just positive vibes and good times while imbibing to some of Stevie's best.
Found Stevie Ray on RUclips fell for his way of playing the blues and his guitar playing floored me and his voice my, my WOW so damn great. Great f-ing song my all time favorite. God Bless Mr. Stevie Ray Vaughan.🧡💙💛💚❤💜💔🖤🥰🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍👍😭😭 I'D LOVE THIS PLAYED AT MY CREMATION. HE LOVES GOD HE WAS SAVED FROM ADDICTION. THANKS TO GOD.
I ask this question with all due respect and the understanding that it may be a completely ignorant question - but what is the difference between a “grown man“ and a “grown ass man?”
@@Kristina-cd3nb I actually died a few times after I was shot at 24y/o in the military. I don't feel bad about getting shot, I am distressed about the hell my family endured. Prays for you my heart goes out to you.
Into 2021 with the one and only..Stevie Ray Vaughan and his fantastic band..Stevie is a. remarkable man and if he could have lived out his life..I'm certain there was much more to this genius..and music icon and legend of blue's and rock..r u with me? What a talented man and so humble in life..Stevie is missed heart and soul by all his fans and friends..God giveth and God taketh..RIP Stevie
Every time I hear this version it rocks me to the core. It means so much more now then just 3 yrs ago since I lost my son. He's my Angel along with SRV
Stevie probably never thought not only his sensational guitar playing would be great but..also he had the. Talent and vocals to sing besides..Stevie had all it took to become the legend of blue's and Rock and be the best entertainer that could be in his young life..had a terrific band also..Stevie brought a lot of fans enjoyment through his music and showmanship every time he set foot on a stage..every performance Stevie did was done with greatness and gratitude of all..It was a joy to meet you Stevie Ray Vaughan and hear your fantastic music and songs..The electric guitar was the most terrific thing I believe in Young Stevie's lifetime and something he could relate too and hold on too..The guitar knew Stevie and Stevie knew the guitar..God bless..RIP Stevie
I was lucky to be in Texas 1981 to 1983. Saw him play so many times cause his rocket was igniting but was not yet in the stars. His guitar licks are like kisses.
I can go for a year and not shed a tear but Stevie playing this makes me break down. How he conveyed emotion through playing is like nothing I've ever seen. He thanks God he is alive and dies 3 years later.
STEVIE SINGS WITH HIS HEART ON HIS SLEEVE, SINGING TO HIS FRIEND HE LOST TO THE DRUGS!!!! SAD!! HE GOT CLEAN. THEN THE ANGELS TOOK HIM , SADLY MISSED SRV, ONE OF A KIND! R.I.P. GENUIS X X X
This song and performance by SRV makes me cry every time since I am a window and SRV was my husbands favorite singer. rest in peace SRV and Bob England
His struggles are no more. Seeing who he was and hearing his testimonies, I truly believe that he is in Heaven with our Lord now. He is at peace. Fly on Stevie! I look forward to the day when we can jam together haha
@@guitarhero2022 You still do, you're just not self aware enough to understand that. But Christ is no fairytale, He was a real man born about 4 BC, lived a sinless life as God incarnate, willingly became the sacrifice for our sins, and now all who put their trust in Jesus as their savior will be given the righteousness of Him in the eyes of God, therefore being washed clean of our transgressions against God and allowed into Heaven when we die. I tell you what though, if this is a fairytale, those first century "peasants," as you folks like to call them, were the greatest creative writers this world has ever seen. You must at least give them credit for that if you're going to be an ignorant sob and say it's a fairytale xD
r.i.p stevie , gone but never forgotten man i wish i was able to see you live.. my one musician i wish i could see live is by far stevie ray vaughn, rest peacefully stevie.
Hello Baby-How have you been? I'm melting!! His voice was amazing along with his guitar playing. He seriously had something so SO very special. Plus he was a gentleman and was respectful of everyone he met. His sobriety brought him so much happiness for those last few years and it shows here, even in his eyes. I sure hope to meet him on the other side and I'll ask him to sing this song to me! LOVE YOU SRV
As a surfer we talk of being in rhythm with the ocean and feeling in-sink with nature.. SRV is a guy who is in-sink with his instrument and in rhythm with his music. When you see it it is something that you cant ignore.
Stevie Ray Vaughan,,, THANK YOU SO MUCH for giving us your music !!! You were,,, and still are the GREATEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God took you MUCH TOO SOON !!!!!!!! I miss you like family !!!!
Ooh, ooh now baby, tell me how have you been We all have missed you, and the way you grin The day is necessary, every now and then For souls to move on, givin' life back again and again Fly on, fly on, fly on my friend Go on, live again, love again Day after day, night after night Sittin' here, singin' every minute, as the years go passing by, by, by, by Long look in the mirror, we've come face to face Wishing all the love we took for granted, love we have today Life without you, all the love you passed my way The angels have waited for you so long, now they have their way Take your place
SRV does more for others from eternity, than he could have done from earth, its all in HIS divine plan....I just recently reconnected with SRV...I don't remember why at the time but I do now!
This is the best overall version of this song I’ve heard start to finish; they all have impact sung with souls no matter how bad his health was. My favorite song and this video is how I like to visualize Stevie: amazing performance, smiling, full of life and love, appreciating everything. Feels GOOD😎
@@shirleymuhleisen683 it's actually recorded really well, too. I converted it to mp3 and listen to it in my truck now, along with all of my Duane Allman and Allman Brothers stuff👍
He recorded this concert after he got well. The difference from when he was partying to when he stopped is unfathomable. I hope my son is with SRV in heaven watching down on me. RIP JAKE AND STEVIE.
Ok so today I created a RUclips account just to comment on this "GOD"! I seriously SEE his HAPPINESS in his EYES when he's talking to the crowd. Oh I so much thank him for giving my kids the desire to play guitar, they love him, (25 and 23 years old) SRV had passion and HE PLAYED THAT GUITAR LIKE NO ONE ELSE COULD EVEN COME CLOSE TO! HE'S NEVER GONNA DIE! And yes I agree with the guy who said FU*CK HELICOPTORS!!!!!!!! LUV U SRV!!!!!
all I can say is that anyone who had the luck to see this cat in a show has seen the best there is or ever was! This guy had a guitar for a soul..... ....pure guitar genius!
@@gmandersonjr Same goes for the great Rocky Athas & if your from Texas i need not tell you who he is. Shame Rocky didn't get the same credit his good friend Steve Vaughn got as he's a monster guitar player as well.
GOAT gets thrown around a lot nowadays, but for me no one is even remotely close to SRV. And it makes his death all the more difficult to handle - especially given all he overcame. I just... it's still just hard to accept. God bless you Stevie, thank you. What you have done will live on forever, and no cruelty in this life can ever take that away.
applause please I was at Alpine Valley when the helicopter crashed, sorry to say I wish it was Clapton that took the seat, he stole most of his music from the Delta, never paid those old brothers a cent, greedy fucker, are you aware of how many famous artists that took licks from the Delta went back, and gave those old musicians, cash money hung around and jammed with them secretly, without blowing their horns about it? Clapton just stole their shit and laughed as he flew over Louisiana and Mississippi he's a good guitarist but he's a shitty parent and a greedy Brit, you know if I had a child and it fell out of a window of my condo I would still be in jail for child neglect, he didn't receive anything but sympathy for being an un awear parent, nothing against his guitar style, the guy is talented , so don't repost a bunch of bullshit to me, I play guitar I've done plenty of research I know what I'm talking about Dylan went back to the Delta unannounced and spread all kinds of cash around, because he got a lot of his ideas from Delta blues, I wouldn't pay a dime for a Clapton CD, he's got everything he needs and more, and takes credit for everything, half of his music is stolen from people that have to hunt their food are go fishing every day for supper, been there done that
Steven . I was never a Clapton fan myself . Hendrix put him in his place and he never really recovered from it. Before Hendrix came over to London, they were calling him "God". After he was just a priest , living in Earth with the rest of us.
I'm former army combat medic and incurred a tbi from a gsw. Like Stevie said we are all living on borrowed time. I understand his message...we just need to go on and do the right thing even when no one is looking.
Just an incredible performance by Stevie and the whole band . Did you see toward the end of the song his strap became disconnected but didn't fall off. I'm almost 100% sure he had many angels in his presence and he channeled his music. Such a gift
miss you Stevie Ray Vaughan what a great loss, he was one of the best and one of a kind ,if he was still with us can you imagine what he be performing now ! so talented .
Stevie Ray Vaughan is an inspiration to all that sings and puts all there inner feelings into the song...this is phenomenal..and a terrific band..what a great performer and entertainer..The music just flows right along from the soul of everyone on that stage..melody is terrific and stays with you..RIP Stevie..U left too soon .
This is decidedly the best version of this song except for his performance of this song on the New Orleans riverboat from 1988! Personally I always liked his “speeches” during a song, he always praised, acknowledged his band, tour crew members and many others as well as gave the crowd good advise from true experience and sincerity!!!
Love You SO much Stevie Ray! I wish I could go down to Texas in October for the SRV Annual Remembrance Ride and hang out with all of his fans!! That would be heaven! Maybe next year! I'm clean and sober with his help and God's! He's an inspiration in SO many ways!
I was at this concert :) I was a little girl and it was bike week... a biker put me on his shoulder so I could see better and take pix of SRV.. I still have those pix and I've been a fan ever since. I listened to Live Alive every night before going to sleep.
What a music Artist and a music legend and singer on blue's and rock n roll in Stevie Ray Vaughans young carreer..terrific band..He began producing his own recordings and was great at it..Stevie was awesome on that electric guitar and there weren't anything on that guitar Stevie didn't know about..Great entertainment on every performance this man did on a stage somewhere..RIP Stevie..R U with me?
Life Without You Stevie Ray is So Sad,but I have to say You Tube has kept his Music alive Thank you All for that Rest in Peace Stevie Ray Missed Never Forgotten ♥️
I will always love you Stevie Ray Vaughan and I will always be grateful for the love you passed our way. The Angels have waited for so long. Go ahead take your place! Give God the Glory! 😇
Just lost my Mom on Sunday night after a short battle of numerous health issues. She passed with my Pops on one side of her hospital bed and me on the other holding her hands. SRV could really pull out the emotions with his playing. RIP Mom.
God love you Stevie... If, and I Mean If, I could make a sound come out of my guitar as awesome, as Passion filled as Any he just played, I'd probably pass out , fall down, crap my pants, and die a happy man...
The whole song is amazing and around the 10:00 mark when the smoke and lights make it look like some power from the sky is decending apon Stevie. Dang that man could play.
And then SRV gives the sound guy credit for "making his guitar sound so sweet" AND TAKES NO CREDIT FOR HIS PART?? NOW THAT's JUST PLAIN CRAZY!!! SRV you just GOTTA GOTTA KNOW YOU F-ING ROCK!!!!! I know you do! UP THERE with the angels. Thanks FOR ALL THE LOVE YOU PASSED OUR WAY!!!!
2023 and watching this , people looked so much happier back in the day that’s crazy and beautiful to see , no hate , just everybody having a good time all together !! Rest in peace Mr.Vaughan you are a legend thank you for your warming music ! And you can see that there’s no concentration there , you can tell he’s just feelin it
I work for a bunch of different local crews. I have set up for Lynyrd Skynyrd to Avenged Sevenfold......That's all I ever wanted was a good job. You did great. And to hear from Stevie got me bad. No one ever thinks of the labor involved in a production like that. And I actually take pride in knowing I help entertain the masses and keep em happy. Dude is a legend. Pretty sure an angel in human form until he went home.
Stop for a moment and think. Can you imagine all that he could have accomplished in the 24 years since his death? The man was only in the mainstream for about 6-8 years. He was only sober for about 2 of those. That helicopter crash did not have to happen. It should have never happened. A little bit of bad weather and an unqualified pilot came together in the worst possible way. I recently read for the first time about that pilot's background. He briefly had his license suspended once before. That is bad enough by itself but is nothing compared to the fact that he did not have an instrument rating on his pilot's license. You may already know what that is but for anyone who doesn't know it is training that teaches you to fly without any visual cues or visual aid of any kind. They put a big cone shaped visor on you which looks alot like those huge cone shaped collars they put on dogs to keep them from bothering a wound of some kind. The purpose of it is that it keeps the pilot from being able to look or see anything anywhere but down at the instruments. You are then required to fly using NOTHING but what your instruments tell you. If you don't have that rating then it is illegal for you to fly during bad weather or low visibility. Please correct me if I am wrong but I don't think you are even allowed to fly at night either. That pilot basically did EVERYTHING that he wasn't allowed to be doing that fateful night. However, like I said... I could be wrong about some of this. I am only quoting what I have read in news articles from back just after it happened. Anyway... I am sorry for ranting. It just shows how someone else's irresponsible choices can have a severe impact on innocent people who just happened to be nearby. This helicopter crash didn't have to happen. It should not have happened and could probably have been avoided pretty easily. I started playing guitar sometime around 1995 when I was 14 years old. It was Stevie Ray Vaughan who first inspired me to play guitar. He had already been dead five years. I sure do wish he was still here with us.
Its a great post man ..You vented very well for all of us who had their lives changed by SRV .".He had passed 5 years before before you were inspired to play guitar" .I was in a small town in OK when I first heard him and already playing a little but he changed my world like so many others. Im talking strobe lights and vinyl and the cops coming and telling us to turn it down . I heard the news that day in my early 20's ..No cell phones or internet ..At first I hear Clapton had died in the crash and was actually sick to my stomach ..then as the news became more clear I was sick again . Good post man .
@iaintnoprophet I'm 21 and I agree. There will never be another like him. Playing on .13 gauge strings clean, with the toggle switch up, smoking a cig. Eye hits didn't happen to SRV, because he never had to look. I'm not a big blues person, but I'll listen to SRV anytime, none other.

The emotion in his guitar playing alone is more than enough, makes you really feel the message that he is trying to convey.
You got it bro
I’m with you 100%
Amen
What college?

This song makes my heart ache knowing he is no longer with us 💔 Gone too soon RIP Stevie!
I'm a grown ass man sitting here with tears streaming down my face. THAT'S how POWERFUL this song is!
Mane Gucci real men cry brotha
ME TOO .... at 70 yrs old !!!!
I ask this question with all due respect and the understanding that it may be a completely ignorant question - but what is the difference between a “grown man“ and a “grown ass man?”
It certainly is a powerful song. I'm using it at my 24 yr old sons funeral tomorrow.

Lamento mucho tu perdida. El te guía desde el cielo y algún día lo verás de nuevo
I’m with you ❤️ angel mom to angel mom
Wish i had time to hit the like button a billion times!
Play this at my funeral. Its Beautiful.
Me too...xx

Time ta head home to the main office, that's all.
everytime i here his words in the middle of song i get humbled i listen to it often to remind myself
My heart has never healed since he has been gone
Not just 'hear' but to see him. Wow, I mean he has so much rhythm flowing out of him. He was a true gift.
You can't help but see what Stevie's real purpose in this life was, and it wasn't just to play fabulous music.
cause
life without you is such a drag. so grateful we can still watch and listen to a legend
STEVIE SINGS WITH HIS HEART ON HIS SLEEVE, SINGING TO HIS FRIEND HE LOST TO THE DRUGS!!!! SAD!! HE GOT CLEAN. THEN THE ANGELS TOOK HIM , SADLY MISSED SRV, ONE OF A KIND! R.I.P. GENUIS X X X
Welcome into 2021..Stevie Ray Vaughan always in memory and Remembrance..never forgotten..God bless and RIP Stevie...still with you..r u with me?
Absolutely. 💯♥️
This song and performance by SRV makes me cry every time since I am a window and SRV was my husbands favorite singer. rest in peace SRV and Bob England
I lost my father . I think of my mother and other widows an widower, so much pain joy love and happiness. Ur not alone Sandra we are all connected
His struggles are no more. Seeing who he was and hearing his testimonies, I truly believe that he is in Heaven with our Lord now.
He is at peace.
Fly on Stevie!
I look forward to the day when we can jam together haha
I stopped believing in fairy tales when I was six.

I couldn't have said it any better. RIP Stevie. You are still missed by many....
Stevie was the best!
nothing but pure soul!
One of the coolest cats ever. I miss the music he never made
Stevie Ray is rockin the heavens I am sure! What a legacy.
You know you're right Michele Marie.
He better be. . . And if Stevie isn't in heaven then I don't wanna be their either. . .

Especially his playing ,,Right ??
I miss him so much. He played with so much passion.
Me too I'm the closest thing to playing like him I've seen every concert video of his and learned by ear he's the reason why I play the blues
But only thing is there will never be another Stevie Ray Vaughan
As a surfer we talk of being in rhythm with the ocean and feeling in-sink with nature..
SRV is a guy who is in-sink with his instrument and in rhythm with his music. When you see it it is something that you cant ignore.
Best live version of this masterpiece.
A beautiful soul taken way too soon! Miss and love you Stevie ❤
Woke up with an odd tune in my head and discovered it on the web: *Life Without You* ... Stevie strikes again!!
Stevie Ray Vaughan,,, THANK YOU SO MUCH for giving us your music !!! You were,,, and still are the GREATEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God took you MUCH TOO SOON !!!!!!!! I miss you like family !!!!
Ooh, ooh now baby, tell me how have you been
We all have missed you, and the way you grin
The day is necessary, every now and then
For souls to move on, givin' life back again and again
Fly on, fly on, fly on my friend
Go on, live again, love again
Day after day, night after night
Sittin' here, singin' every minute, as the years go passing by, by, by, by
Long look in the mirror, we've come face to face
Wishing all the love we took for granted, love we have today
Life without you, all the love you passed my way
The angels have waited for you so long, now they have their way
Take your place
SRV does more for others from eternity, than he could have done from earth, its all in HIS divine plan....I just recently reconnected with SRV...I don't remember why at the time but I do now!
He left us precious gifts that keep motivating and inspiring people. He was a special soul and then he left.

His swagger and sway......Every move seems to bleed music.
The message is.......all we have to do in this life, is LOVE.....share it. That's really all there is.
10:56, such a small thing, but yet so much feeling. RIP to the greatest!
I, can't get enough. making this my Theam song for my 62nd Birthday n Aug.

.
one of the best guitar players EVER !!!
Man what I would give to hear him play just one song
This song goes out to my son, who was verbally abused by his father and then gave into him by taking his own life.
Stevie is the best person ever...giving creds to the guys behind the scene, who does that!
No gets out of this life alive, be thankful for those that helped us...

I may never have his ability, but I can carry and never lose that inspiration!
Just lost my Mom on Sunday night after a short battle of numerous health issues. She passed with my Pops on one side of her hospital bed and me on the other holding her hands. SRV could really pull out the emotions with his playing. RIP Mom.
+blocksize I'm sorry for your loss :(
blocksize condolences my friend!
Stevie Ray U ARE PURE HEAVEN!!!!! XOXOXOXO. 1234 always!!!!
why does this AMAZING performance only have 2,724 views?!?! -___- ... favorite SRV song hands down!
Words can't express how much I love this man.
He was best I ever saw. I saw this guy in 82 at Billy Bobs, in 86 in SA and in 88 in DC. He was out fucking standing.
still heartbroken.
lot of great comments, hard to add much to it, we love you Stevie, RIP our brother.
*N E V E R be another Stevie 💖🇺🇸
God love you Stevie... If, and I Mean If, I could make a sound come out of my guitar as awesome, as Passion filled as Any he just played, I'd probably pass out , fall down, crap my pants, and die a happy man...
Love u Stevie, always
The whole song is amazing and around the 10:00 mark when the smoke and lights make it look like some power from the sky is decending apon Stevie. Dang that man could play.
Makes me cry almost every time- To the Ones I love who've crossed over♡
couldn't imagine life without stevie nope
One of the best SRV and Solo !!!
Couldn't have put it better!!!!!
And then SRV gives the sound guy credit for "making his guitar sound so sweet" AND TAKES NO CREDIT FOR HIS PART?? NOW THAT's JUST PLAIN CRAZY!!! SRV you just GOTTA GOTTA KNOW YOU F-ING ROCK!!!!! I know you do! UP THERE with the angels. Thanks FOR ALL THE LOVE YOU PASSED OUR WAY!!!!
If that don't get you pumped up I don't know what will? The best the ever was. period!
One word ..Greatest.
incredible.
2023 and watching this , people looked so much happier back in the day that’s crazy and beautiful to see , no hate , just everybody having a good time all together !! Rest in peace Mr.Vaughan you are a legend thank you for your warming music !
And you can see that there’s no concentration there , you can tell he’s just feelin it
SRV.....RIP!
I work for a bunch of different local crews. I have set up for Lynyrd Skynyrd to Avenged Sevenfold......That's all I ever wanted was a good job. You did great. And to hear from Stevie got me bad. No one ever thinks of the labor involved in a production like that. And I actually take pride in knowing I help entertain the masses and keep em happy. Dude is a legend. Pretty sure an angel in human form until he went home.
I very much agree Mr.King
props for acknowledging the folks behind the scenes
Stevie was the truth!
Stop for a moment and think. Can you imagine all that he could have accomplished in the 24 years since his death? The man was only in the mainstream for about 6-8 years. He was only sober for about 2 of those. That helicopter crash did not have to happen. It should have never happened. A little bit of bad weather and an unqualified pilot came together in the worst possible way. I recently read for the first time about that pilot's background.
He briefly had his license suspended once before. That is bad enough by itself but is nothing compared to the fact that he did not have an instrument rating on his pilot's license. You may already know what that is but for anyone who doesn't know it is training that teaches you to fly without any visual cues or visual aid of any kind. They put a big cone shaped visor on you which looks alot like those huge cone shaped collars they put on dogs to keep them from bothering a wound of some kind. The purpose of it is that it keeps the pilot from being able to look or see anything anywhere but down at the instruments. You are then required to fly using NOTHING but what your instruments tell you. If you don't have that rating then it is illegal for you to fly during bad weather or low visibility. Please correct me if I am wrong but I don't think you are even allowed to fly at night either. That pilot basically did EVERYTHING that he wasn't allowed to be doing that fateful night. However, like I said... I could be wrong about some of this. I am only quoting what I have read in news articles from back just after it happened.
Anyway... I am sorry for ranting. It just shows how someone else's irresponsible choices can have a severe impact on innocent people who just happened to be nearby. This helicopter crash didn't have to happen. It should not have happened and could probably have been avoided pretty easily. I started playing guitar sometime around 1995 when I was 14 years old. It was Stevie Ray Vaughan who first inspired me to play guitar. He had already been dead five years.
I sure do wish he was still here with us.
Bradley Smith I have always wondered too...... What would the world of blues be like now if he hadn't gotten on the helicopter?
It was,from what I heard at the time,Eric Clapton that got on that doomed helicopter.
Almost....forgot that word.
Its a great post man ..You vented very well for all of us who had their lives changed by SRV .".He had passed 5 years before before you were inspired to play guitar" .I was in a small town in OK when I first heard him and already playing a little but he changed my world like so many others. Im talking strobe lights and vinyl and the cops coming and telling us to turn it down . I heard the news that day in my early 20's ..No cell phones or internet ..At first I hear Clapton had died in the crash and was actually sick to my stomach ..then as the news became more clear I was sick again . Good post man .
Bradley Smith
I TOTALLY ARGREE WITH YOU BRADLEY. I COULDNT'VE TXT IT ANY BETTER MYSELF IN THATS THE TRUTH! X
Orgulho de ao menos poder ouvir essa musica perfeita....
@iaintnoprophet I'm 21 and I agree. There will never be another like him. Playing on .13 gauge strings clean, with the toggle switch up, smoking a cig. Eye hits didn't happen to SRV, because he never had to look. I'm not a big blues person, but I'll listen to SRV anytime, none other.
best version ive heard so far... damn what am i sayin? all are great! still got enough to listen to haha... lets continue..
