    To be so young AND so talented! So much better than "top-40" garbage on the radio today.

    On a business trip to Austin in 1995, I took my neph (an UoT student) to Antoine's for a beer. About 10:00pm, and to a half-filled bar - this skinny, long-haired kid (he was 18 at the time) came on with a drummer and bass player, and he just ripped the place apart. It was an unknown Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and he played his heart out. SRV, Johnny Lang, KWS - Texas grows some of the best, biggest-hearted, most humble, and IMO under-appreciated musicians anywhere!

    I think both Jimi and SRV would be proud and I'm sure they are both smiling down on this young man for keeping this music alive. Good job KWS. Cool guitar too man. Looks and sound.

      Miguel de Sousa you've just nailed it with that comment this is just a ripping cover of a great song. Very talented is mr kws cheers 🍻

    • @mauimig380
      @mauimig380 7 лет назад +2

      Haven't been here in awhile, and think KWS taking a leftie guitar (Hendrix) and turning it upside was a direct tribute to Jimi taking righties upside down. Very very cool tribute homage. Hats off to KWS. and this version is so good to come back .

      Miguel de Sousa Noah has a great voice no doubt saw them here both are shorter than they appear lol Kenny s original vocalist on Ledbetter Corey Sterling was a great vocalist sadly lasted only one album enjoy the old videos with him

      +Julien Prégent True enough, but what he hears is the significantly stronger Blues element that is missing from most Rock music since the 80s.

  • @littlewing4813
    @littlewing4813 11 лет назад +2

    3rd best rendition I've ever heard. Obviously that's a compliment considering he's only being out-done by Jimi and Stevie themselves. :)

  • @BluesBoyJonny
    @BluesBoyJonny 14 лет назад +1

    Through his father's connections, KWS was able to meet SRV backstage when he was seven years old. SRV went on with the show, but with KWS sitting on his amp. With an experience like that, how could KWS not have turned out any other way?
    Whatever you want to call it, stealing, or imitation, it is regardless the highest for of flattery and respect to the originator(s), and I think SRV, JH, and all other musicians would be proud to see what their influence turned this seven year old into.

    Fair play for the tribute to Jimi.Great playing by Kws till 3.24.Because then the songs soul and anarchic otherworldly energy, is lost and gone. Trying to add something to Jimis virtuosity?........Impossible and foolworthy.In the studio version he never lets up at all, till someone fades him out.Leaving your soul shaking,clamouring for more.True genius........... never be....equalled....or heard again..... in that genre.

    I'm a Kenny Wayne fan. With that being said, I consider this a valiant effort, but NOBODY will ever be able to pull off the tone, and more importantly, THE FIRE that SRV poured into this song!! Anybody who wants to try it, I say go ahead, but just know it will never be as good as Stevie's WORST time playing it! I know I will piss a lot of people off by saying it, but there are many more that will agree....you know Chris Layton is thinking it as he plays behind Kenny....written all over his face. Chris saying to himself "Stevie really set the bar, but I'll help Kenny make a run at it!". At the end, Kenny saying to himself, "Damn, that's all I got! Only one I'll really impress is the only one that never heard Stevie's version!" Kenny definately "playing" the notes, but not "HITTING" the notes like Stevie. Missing the FIRE and the FURY in my opinion. Kenny is an awesome guitarist though. I got to see him once when his first record was out. Played a hole-in-the-wall club in Johnson City, TN called Rafter's. After the show he signed some autographs and was really cool.
