      No, he's the top Blues guitarist ever. He could make love to and f*ck his guitar in the same song. There are others in different genres that are as good. Even considering the Blues, Gary Moore was quite close to Stevie. RIP to both. Tommy Emmanuel is the GOAT acoustic guitar player.

  • @23gobears
    @23gobears 6 месяцев назад +92

    Stevie is arguably one of the greatest ever. He used to play until the callus's on his fingers would fall off. Then he'd super glue them back on and keep playin! True Legend. ☝🏼🙏🏼👊🏼

    • @mkelly1347

      Saw him at Anotones in Austin, split a finger wide open on a nasty slide. Finished the song and on the side of the stage, he SUPER GLUES his cut. Ran an emery board over it and started playing agin. Like it aint no thing.

    Yes, the greatest guitar performance ever captured on film. It had all the elements: fantastic technical precision, incredible tone, tremendous feeling, spectacular showmanship, and unparalleled physicality. One has to understand that he did this on a guitar with extremely heavy-gauged strings and high action! What I love most about Stevie, however, is that he was a sweet and humble man. Thank God for the wonderful legacy that he left---as a musician AND as a person!

    Behind the back, behind his head, with his teeth, on the floor riding the guitar like a surfboard & playing it at the same time. You name it, he did it! There certainly are a lot of great players but only one SRV! Can you imagine what he would have done if he had more than 7 yrs of a mainstream career?? God must have needed guitar lessons.

    Along with B.B. King, Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Roy Clark, Frank Zappa and Brian May.

    @stevedahlberg8680 6 месяцев назад +10

    I can't remember which one, but there is another popular live video of him where he's playing the song and he breaks a string, and the stage tech brings out a replacement and the transition between the two guitars is just flawless while he maintains his guitar flow. It's pretty mind-blowing.

    I spent the better part of this evening choked up and in tears watching Toby Keith reactions, including yours, and then this came up on my feed. Stevie was so loved also, and his death so tragic. He died August 27, 1990, only about a 30 minute drive from where I live here in Wisconsin from a helicopter crash, taking off when it was way too foggy. Heartbreaking. The band in Heaven just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
    RIP Stevie 💔 RIP Toby

  • @tricitymorte1
    @tricitymorte1 6 месяцев назад +1

    Every time Stevie played, the guitar needed a cigarette when he was done. He made guitars do things guitars didn't know they could do. He knew his instruments inside and out, understood exactly how they worked, and played around figuring out how to manipulate them.

    Yes, yes he IS playing behind his back. Which means he's basically got to hold the guitar AWAY from his back, in order to give him room to play it. On my Mount Rushmore, for sure. SRV, Clapton, Hendrix, and Eddie van Halen. I feel like he plays HARDER than most guitarists. He's really working on that thang. Also, all-time great stank face.

    “When I play, I play sort of like talking, you know, syllables, you say a sentence here, a sentence there and then, I’ve to stop and think for something else to keep my conversation going. But his didn’t seem to be that at all. It was fluent, he flowed when he played. He could get something going and it was like a song and it would just go on and on. Ideas continuously flowed, I don’t have that. There is not a lot of people that I hear that have that but Stevie had it.” - BB King

    There is a 15 year old guitar player named Taj Farrant who is getting closer to being as good as SRV. He's a big fan of the blues and already has a string of number one hits on the blues charts. Youngest guitarist ever endorsed by Gibson guitars. Played with Carlos Santana, Rob Thomas, Orianthi, Kiss,Diesel and others. He's touring America and building his fan base and stage skills. Do yourself a favour and check him out. You won't regret it.
