You have no idea the rabbit hole you just fell down with Stevie Ray. This gentleman was the greatest, hands down! He grew up in North Texas and anyone that likes (or loves) music, knows who Stevie Ray was. If you get an opportunity & you haven't reacted to it, please check out Pride and Joy. One of my all time favorites as wells as The House is Rockin'. The man could do no wrong when it came to his music. Thanks so much for the reaction. (And no, you weren't born in the wrong era. You're here to bring back the great music that a lot of us grew up on & we appreciate it).
Stevie used heavy 12 and 13 gauge strings that gave his guitar it’s unique tone and powerful sound. He raised the bridge to accommodate the thickness of the strings. There is a reactor that plays guitar and he said that he played the same king of guitar set up the way Stevie’s guitar was set up. He said he couldn’t play more than five minutes before his fingers couldn’t take the pain. Rock guitar legend, Eric Clapton was in awe of Stevie. Eric was asked to play in a concert with Stevie on the bill. Stevie played first and when it was time for Eric to go on he didn’t want to go on. When asked why, Eric said, “How am I supposed to follow that?!”
Man, why would anyone give you crap? That isn’t right! I am the age where I just realized that I am getting old. I’m just glad the younger generation are appreciating these greats!! You do you Cliff!! I’m here, ride or die!
“Little Wing” from this show is the most beautiful instrumental in a pure power and aggression but still with emotion way I’ve ever seen/heard. Again, his version doesn’t have the words, but it’s my favorite between his and Hendrix’s.
SRV, Jimi, Beck….those three will never be equaled. Nobody can even copy them well. I can play all their stuff, but I can’t PLAY it if you know what I mean.
That riff he did right at the beginning was one of the first things I learned to play on guitar. It's the starting point for all blues music. I can still play it, but definitely not like he could. You have got to do more SRV. His family is in love with the fact people are rediscovering his talent. There is nothing but love from them.
Love your channel! More Stevie Ray please! Texas Flood from that same performance is 🔥. Shout out to Double Trouble, the band. Chris Layton on drums and Tommy Shannon on bass. ☮️❤️😎
Great reaction brother! 🤙🏼 I’m sure it’s a challenge to find the right balance between commenting and letting a vid play so as to not interrupt the artist’s flow and energy. There are many formulas out there. You’ll keep getting better. I had no issues with this one. By the way, Stevie does sing. In fact, he has an AMAZING Texas blues voice! The man was placed on this earth to do exactly what he did. Just would’ve been nice to have him here a little longer. RIP.
@@rickb.4168 Jeff Beck, Gary Moore? Both incredible Guitarists I agree, but not in the same class as SRV ...Watch the video again, REALLY watch then consider the other Two.
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a beast. He does not have to sing one word and he will take you down an emotional roller-coaster ride and just make you feel what he wants you to feel. RIP
Just so everyone understands the context of this iconic performance. The El Macombo is a small, maybe 100 people crowded into a room blues club on Danforth Ave in Toronto Canada 🇨🇦
Just gained a new Subby! So stoked you did this song from this show - hardly ever reacted to and it is one of my favorites cuz he just RIPS into his guitar - his tone and ability to let it all hang loose, this one really puts it on display. Bro, I love how real and cool you rep about yourself and caring about others. That is the real stuff. AS FOR SRV!!! This whole concert - he is ON FIRE. You can do every track from El Mocambo (not to jinx but they seem to make it thru YT for other reactors) and his energy and intensity and magic music never drops off one bit. He sings plenty but does some instrumentals like this and some slow jazzy ones - like "Lenny" from this same show - that are so beautiful and powerful they just leave you mind blown, like most of his work) He is amazing regardless, a truly GREAT voice. But on this one, he just ripped into that Fender Stratocaster (he called it 'NUMBER 1' an old beat up 1962 that is arguably the sickest - and most valuable - guitar on the face of the Earth). This show captured him in the year before he was 'discovered.' He can lay into a groove and rhythm like none other. Also, he is improvising 50% or more while he plays - he has some go-to licks and patterns, but he lets his spirit drift into some other magic land and he gives 200% and brings the magic back to us and is just straight-up channeling from another dimension in real time up there. You can see it in his face. Peace/
People that get upset about pausing are ridiculous. I’m here for YOUR reaction. The man is great and I want see how you respond. If I wanted to just watch the original, I would go find it.
I'm from Northern Ireland (tiny country) and I have definitely heard and listened to SRV even the set he played on MTV on acoustic guitar in real time. SRV was on a different level playing his own lead and back up at the same time. Played with those big ass 13 strings. Its said all the greats have their own sound Stevie created his own. Brought blues from his guitar to everyone's ear. Yes you could totally understand what he sang from those strings but his voice was also fantastic. There will never ever be a replica replacement or even anyoneclose. He is the guitarist's guitarist admired by all his so called peers even the greats BB King, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Albert King to name but a few. He was sensational. One of the few GOATS
SRV is one of one. The greatest to ever do it, imo. Funny how you mention how good he is without even having words in the song. His version of Lilttle Wing was the first time I ever truly felt music. He's been my favorite musician ever since I first heard that song.
"Little Wing" is my favorite 'song' in the Universe. The 2 1/2 minute original by Jimi Hendrix, melted me with his soft, sweet voice. I was barely14. And any amazing version by Stevie Ray. Beautiful composition by genius J.H.
I greatly enjoy watching you, and others, discover "new" genres/eras that you were not exposed to previously. Keep doing what you're doing and we'll keep appreciating it.
Ahh, the Pause Police, always ready to pounce. I'm okay with pausing as long as it's not long and/or frequent. But I love listening to detailed reactions , and you really came through. Speaking of Roadhouse, have you heard SRV's "Willie the Wimp"? Watch "Voodoo Child" Nashville, breaks a string but still plays it behind his back. Definately react--"Little Wing", el Macombo. Watch "Tin Pan Alley"with Johnny Copeland. Watch "Tightrope", another el Macombo show. Scorching solo. Gone now, but never forgotten if we pass down his music to each new generation. SRV fans love him that much. RIP, King SRV, we're still listening. 🎸👽🎧
SRV the pride of South Oak Cliff, Dallas, TX! Standard 12 bar blues there, with pure improv from Stevie. I love it!! He does have other songs with lyrics and other people have mentioned them. Keep on keepin' on, man!
Stevie when singing or not could speak though his guitar. When he recorded his 1st album it was done during a Thanksgiving weekend. A musician named Jackson Brown let him used his studio for free. They recorded the album without doing over dubs it was recored as played live. Go listen to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble at Austin City Limits. There are 2 shows a earlier show before he went into rehabilitation. The second show is after he came out of intensive rehabilitation. When he came out of rehab he didn't know if he could play or perform again he had never done it without drinking and doing coke in later years. But he picked it up and played as good if not better than before. On stage he looked healthy happier but still played from his heart. Double Trouble had written a song called " Walking the TightRope ". The words if you listen to them can have various meanings, but to me it has to do with Stevie and Shannon, the bassist getting clean. If Stevie had not sought treatment when he did he would have died. He had been putting coke in his whiskey which tore his stomach up. Listen to these 2 performances completely and maybe you'll have a better understanding of who Stevie was a a musician and person. I met with him a few times. He was extremely kind but also believe it or not shy. We talked about music, I've played guitar all my life. He showed me his guitars and lest me play #1 stratocaster and Lenny, and others ,he gave names to his guitars. I call mine my ladies. I had built a acoustic 12 string from raw wood th as t had been dried but I had to cut it so it could be used to make a instrument from. It was not a kit guitar but actually made all by hand. He played it and told me it was one of the best sounding 12 strings he had ever played. It just so happens that Inset my guitars up exactly to the same specs as his guitar is set at. I just use thinner strings. When I was younger I used the same strings. I use the same gauge strings on my acoustic, same brand and I play and practice on my acoustic a lot makes your hands stronger plus you learn to play cleaner you can hear every mistake you make. It seems that the musicians that come along and make a difference and change in music seem to die to early. Stevie died after a outdoor concert from a helicopter accident. Eric Clapton would have been on that chopper but Stevie wanted to get back and call hid girlfriend so Clapton said take my seat. He died with some of Eric Clapton's crew on board. Everyone said that during that day Stevie was in great spirts all day long, more so than usual, extremely high spirited. He played that night with a vengeance and the last song " Home Town Chicago" with all the other well known famous musicians, and he hit the 1st note and it was so loud it took Eric Clapton and everyone by surprise. They said he stolen the show with his performance. Stevie could play all night and not play the samething, you'll hear riffs but he goes off into his own world. When he's making the faces that's not made up that's what he's feeling his heart he speaks from the heart. When you hear him bends notes and breaks them down like they're crying that's his heart. I could tell you enough about Stevie I could write a very long article on him and his life. I know this man inside and out. When you listen to him sing and play listen to his voice and the words he makes his voice express the songs feeling along with making his guitar speak the feeling of the song what he's singing and feeling. He's a true blues artist who brought back a genre of music and art that people were losing. People still listen to Stevie but they should go and listen to his influences to get more o picture of where his music and he came from. He left home at 15 to pursue a music career same as I did. I'm alittle older than Stevie. He just had it in him that he was going to play music no matter what. He wasn't the original singer. But after the 1st singer left LoAnn he stepped up to the mic.
Love watching those exceptional musicians channelling through themselves - you see it with Stevie, you can see it in Ren. It's like they just need to let it out - it's such a privilege and pleasure to watch!
SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness There is much to say about SRV, but what you need to know first is that he was a kind and humble soul, but also an alien. He was such a special talent that he had to be from another planet. 👽 😂 ABSOLUTE must-see SRV vids: **Texas Flood at El Macambo** **Voodoo Child at Austin City Limits 1989**
Sorry for the heat you took pausing, I actually expect it during reactions. That being said I know people like to close their eyes & feel the music but you can miss so much with Stevie. He’s such an animated performer. ❤ one of my personal favorites in the 1982 Montreux Jazz Festival performance of Dirty Pool, it’s badass & he sings. 😁
We’ve heard these songs a thousand times! If someone wants to hear it without pauses, they know where to go. I watch for your reactions, pause when ya need to, ask what questions ya want to and don’t worry about those that bitch about senseless crap.
Here you go, You'll never see anybody else make nothing out of something. He never missed a lick. STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN - Look At Little Sister || a string breaks ||
The greatest part about watching SRV live is realizing that, on an instrumental like this, he was just warming up. He started every show with one or two instrumentals, just to get going. And THIS was him just starting up. Enjoy your trip down the SRV rabbit hole. I was blessed to see Stevie Ray 6 times and every show was absolutely incredible.
Thanks, Cliff - I appreciate your reaction to this one, b/c I have often seen "Texas Flood" from this concert... most played... he is just the GOAT... on everything.. I wouldn't eve bother to listen to "studio" anything... he is a LIVE guy.. you will certainly find some of his singing.. also amazing...
I remember when Jazz Fest first started here in New Orleans saw Stevie Ray 2 years in a row sitting both times in a field barely anyone there. Sat right up by the stage and ate pot brownies. I cried when he died.
SRV passed away August 27 1990 at the age of 35. Dead almost 34 years and his music is STILL influencing and amazing generations of people. The power of his music!
Damn it Cliffy dropping a whole classic rock batch today. Stevie Ray Vaughan is probably one of the best sit and drink a glass of whiskey at the end of the day types. Throw some of this on and sit back with a drink and just enjoy the audio ride you get taken on. If you like Stevie you will most likely like Kenny Wayne Sheppard.
You need to do from the same concert "Taxas Flood" live at the El Mocambo. Then you , loving bit of a harder edge, need to do his cover of Hendrix's Voodoo Chile at Austin city limits 1989!!! You are not ready! Enjoy the rabbit hole!
My heart breaks for your generation. Gen X was the last group to be born and raised on the best recorded music in history. You’re discovering it now and I’m so happy for you!!! It’ll open doors and your mind in ways you don’t know yet.
Yep, I am a Gen X'er coming up on 50 pretty soon. We got to experience the old music all the way back into the 1940's still being popular (thanks to our parents and even grandparents), and we got to experience the musical explosion that was still popular from the 1960s to the 1980s, and then got to experience artists like SRV, Gary Moore, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Johnny Lang, and a few others, who were influenced by the old music and put out great music from the mid 1980s into the 1990s. Then came the 2000s... we won't even talk about that, lol.
Stevie Ray Vaughan was amazing, Life by The Drop is a good song! There's another one that's really good too ...Steve Vai. When he was young he played with Bowie. Actually played on the Glass Spiders from Mars album & tour.
Do the entire El Mocombo performances, Plenty of awesome music you won't regret watching all of it !! My personal preference is Texas Flood, But the entire show is indeed awesome !! God Bless
I took guitar lessons for a year. Before that, I taught myself but I wanted "more" I guess. At the end of the year, I had a final test to move to the next level. I had to learn how to play some chords and some solos and I could choose one last thing to play. I'm a perfectionist, I wanted to choose something not too easy but something I would nail but I took too long to decide, so my teacher chose something for me. He made me learn how to play the intro riff of Stevie Ray Vaughan's version of "Mary had a little Lamb". I had never heard it before and when I did, I was petrified! How was I going to play that?! Remember, this was my first year! I didn't nail it but I passed the test.
I just subbed hoping for more SRV!!!❤. Your reaction was great. It’s your channel, so you do as much pausing to avoid copyright issues as possible. If somebody doesn’t like it, tell them to start their own channel and do it their way. And YES to Texas Flood from this same concert. It’s just amazing ❤❤❤
I was at the last concert at Alpine Valley where afterwards he died in a helicopter crash 😢. And I love your pauses and comments . Here for the reactions ❤

Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo is the one you want to see. It'll blow your mind!!
The Greatest Blues guitarist ever!!!, you need to do Texas Flood at the El Mocambo. RIP Stevie 🙏
Yesssss
You have no idea the rabbit hole you just fell down with Stevie Ray. This gentleman was the greatest, hands down! He grew up in North Texas and anyone that likes (or loves) music, knows who Stevie Ray was. If you get an opportunity & you haven't reacted to it, please check out Pride and Joy.

Have you watched his live performance of Texas Flood, recorded at El Mocambo. Best EVER!
Stevie used heavy 12 and 13 gauge strings that gave his guitar it’s unique tone and powerful sound. He raised the bridge to accommodate the thickness of the strings. There is a reactor that plays guitar and he said that he played the same king of guitar set up the way Stevie’s guitar was set up. He said he couldn’t play more than five minutes before his fingers couldn’t take the pain.
Rock guitar legend, Eric Clapton was in awe of Stevie. Eric was asked to play in a concert with Stevie on the bill. Stevie played first and when it was time for Eric to go on he didn’t want to go on. When asked why, Eric said, “How am I supposed to follow that?!”
Stevie had freakishly strong hands for a guy his size, and that is why he could get his tone.
Oh he sings quite well too
He does songs with lyrics. He was an incredible blues singer
Man, why would anyone give you crap? That isn’t right!
I am the age where I just realized that I am getting old. I’m just glad the younger generation are appreciating these greats!!
You do you Cliff!! I’m here, ride or die!
Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo will blow your mind!
“Little Wing” from this show is the most beautiful instrumental in a pure power and aggression but still with emotion way I’ve ever seen/heard. Again, his version doesn’t have the words, but it’s my favorite between his and Hendrix’s.
In my opinion, the greatest guitarst of all time---and a heck of a blues singing voice to go with it!
SRV, Jimi, Beck….those three will never be equaled. Nobody can even copy them well.
I can play all their stuff, but I can’t PLAY it if you know what I mean.
The greatest guitarist that ever was. Could play behind his back better than most guitarists could play in front. Watch Texas flood!!
This is an instrumental piece he wrote but he could definitely sing his ass off too 🎤🎸🔥
The G,O.A.T.
Check out Pride and Joy and Texas Flood!🔥
That riff he did right at the beginning was one of the first things I learned to play on guitar. It's the starting point for all blues music. I can still play it, but definitely not like he could. You have got to do more SRV. His family is in love with the fact people are rediscovering his talent. There is nothing but love from them.
Stevie is your favorite guitar player’s favorite guitar player.
Well said...
Love your channel! More Stevie Ray please! Texas Flood from that same performance is 🔥. Shout out to Double Trouble, the band. Chris Layton on drums and Tommy Shannon on bass. ☮️❤️😎
" life without you "at the capital theater is a must see for sure!!! Srv will always be the goat ❤ great reaction cliff. Thanks
Love to see younger people appreciating Stevie Ray vaughan
Great reaction brother! 🤙🏼 I’m sure it’s a challenge to find the right balance between commenting and letting a vid play so as to not interrupt the artist’s flow and energy. There are many formulas out there. You’ll keep getting better. I had no issues with this one.
By the way, Stevie does sing. In fact, he has an AMAZING Texas blues voice! The man was placed on this earth to do exactly what he did. Just would’ve been nice to have him here a little longer. RIP.
SRV THE GREATEST Blues/Rock Guitarist to ever walk the Earth..No Man comes close to this GENIUS.
Gary Moore, Jeff Beck?
@@rickb.4168 Jeff Beck, Gary Moore? Both incredible Guitarists I agree, but not in the same class as SRV ...Watch the video again, REALLY watch then consider the other Two.
@@stevew585 I disagree, but hey! It’s all subjective. And as long as we have the music of them all…..who cares! X
@@rickb.4168 Very true :) However, we'll agree to disagree 🙂
@@stevew585 especially over a pint or two. 😀
Stevie Ray Vaughan is a beast. He does not have to sing one word and he will take you down an emotional roller-coaster ride and just make you feel what he wants you to feel. RIP

You don’t need to hear lyrics, you just feel it 🔥🔥🔥👵🏼
Just so everyone understands the context of this iconic performance.

Exactly. It's the point of the reaction genre. Some folks are exceedingly dumb
It's ok you're doing fine... This guy was on another level... When it comes to blues he was the best... Just unlimited in his power

Now you know why I am all Retro
YOU ARE THE BEST MR BEATS. XXXXXXXX
"So Excited" was always an instrumental, usually used to lead off his concerts.
Love watching those exceptional musicians channelling through themselves - you see it with Stevie, you can see it in Ren. It's like they just need to let it out - it's such a privilege and pleasure to watch!
That's what I love to hear... One more person who says he wants to hear more of SRV. Subscribed.❤
Respect and love…. RIP
Legend
Srv and Jonny Copeland, Tin Pan Alley (live) is one of the best performances ever.
You can’t get more fly with it than that 🔥
Love that classic 12 bar blues.
Not just how does he DO that? But, how, at times, does he make it look so effortless?
SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness
There is much to say about SRV, but what you need to know first is that he was a kind and humble soul, but also an alien. He was such a special talent that he had to be from another planet. 👽 😂
ABSOLUTE must-see SRV vids:
**Texas Flood at El Macambo**
**Voodoo Child at Austin City Limits 1989**
Oh , he sings !
OMG Stevie Is a Legend dude! The song Pride and Joy though!
Sorry for the heat you took pausing, I actually expect it during reactions. That being said I know people like to close their eyes & feel the music but you can miss so much with Stevie.

Please do All of him! He’s the goat literally
RIP SRV...
Here you go, You'll never see anybody else make nothing out of something. He never missed a lick.
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN - Look At Little Sister || a string breaks ||
The greatest part about watching SRV live is realizing that, on an instrumental like this, he was just warming up. He started every show with one or two instrumentals, just to get going. And THIS was him just starting up. Enjoy your trip down the SRV rabbit hole. I was blessed to see Stevie Ray 6 times and every show was absolutely incredible.
His voice was awesome...Texas Flood at the same concert, he sings.
Thanks, Cliff - I appreciate your reaction to this one, b/c I have often seen "Texas Flood" from this concert... most played... he is just the GOAT... on everything.. I wouldn't eve bother to listen to "studio" anything... he is a LIVE guy.. you will certainly find some of his singing.. also amazing...
Every time a younger person reacts to music of the time ever, it reminds me how lucky i was!!
It came from his head he played how it felt at the time
And from his heart.
I remember when Jazz Fest first started here in New Orleans saw Stevie Ray 2 years in a row sitting both times in a field barely anyone there. Sat right up by the stage and ate pot brownies. I cried when he died.
The band is tight
SRV passed away August 27 1990 at the age of 35. Dead almost 34 years and his music is STILL influencing and amazing generations of people. The power of his music!
Damn it Cliffy dropping a whole classic rock batch today. Stevie Ray Vaughan is probably one of the best sit and drink a glass of whiskey at the end of the day types. Throw some of this on and sit back with a drink and just enjoy the audio ride you get taken on. If you like Stevie you will most likely like Kenny Wayne Sheppard.
Hey bruh don't ever be sorry for stopping the video , it's your show do what you want people just hate for no good reason !!! 🤘🎸🔥🇺🇸💯...
You've got it.
I was at his last concert and it was amazing. He played with Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy. Such a shame to lose him too soon.
Fun Fact The El Mocombo was a Bar downtown Toronto and sometimes when big bands ie Rolling Stones known to pop in. You NEED to see TEXAS FLOOD
Testify - first song at the el mocambo, DooDoo -Jam Wayne ,😮Kitty,Daisy and Lewis - Going up the country. 😊😊
🎸🎸SRV🎸🎸
The good ole days 👏👏👏👵🏼
Pause away❤
Please do his sound check! Could be one of the greatest performances that wasn’t even a concert
SRV just takes you str8 to tha stankface! :D
Oh SRV ...🔥🔥🤙☝️😌
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN WAS THE BEST THERE EVER WAS TO TOUCH A GUITAR!!!!
Check out “Pride and Joy” and his version of “Voodoo Child”. Mind blowing. And he does sing 🎤
It was a great idea to explain your youth and cultural background. You teach us more than you realize.
You need to do from the same concert "Taxas Flood" live at the El Mocambo. Then you , loving bit of a harder edge, need to do his cover of Hendrix's Voodoo Chile at Austin city limits 1989!!! You are not ready! Enjoy the rabbit hole!
My heart breaks for your generation. Gen X was the last group to be born and raised on the best recorded music in history. You’re discovering it now and I’m so happy for you!!! It’ll open doors and your mind in ways you don’t know yet.
Yep, I am a Gen X'er coming up on 50 pretty soon. We got to experience the old music all the way back into the 1940's still being popular (thanks to our parents and even grandparents), and we got to experience the musical explosion that was still popular from the 1960s to the 1980s, and then got to experience artists like SRV, Gary Moore, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Johnny Lang, and a few others, who were influenced by the old music and put out great music from the mid 1980s into the 1990s. Then came the 2000s... we won't even talk about that, lol.
Well I'm not gen x I'm 39 and this is the music I grew up on also I may be a anomaly idk
It makes my heart soar that the next Gen is listening and LIKING it!!!!!
Yeah...Gen X was the fk'n best era to grow up in....
GenX from Tex....
✌️❤️🤘....
@@BrianPasko No, you’re not-this person obviously has no idea how Millennials grew up and how varied the musical influence on us was…😒
Stevie Ray Vaughan was amazing, Life by The Drop is a good song! There's another one that's really good too ...Steve Vai. When he was young he played with Bowie. Actually played on the Glass Spiders from Mars album & tour.
Named my son after this man…greatest blues guitarist ever. 🎸
my favorite SRV song....
ONE of the GOATs. Too subjective to name any guitar player the GOAT, imo...
Spot On...... There are many Guitar Gods...All very worthy & distinctive in their own ways.
Yeah... When you get to a certain level, it's more about who you like more
Do the entire El Mocombo performances, Plenty of awesome music you won't regret watching all of it !! My personal preference is Texas Flood, But the entire show is indeed awesome !! God Bless
Unreal isn't he?
1985 Life Without You, Speaks during it, brings chills
I took guitar lessons for a year. Before that, I taught myself but I wanted "more" I guess. At the end of the year, I had a final test to move to the next level. I had to learn how to play some chords and some solos and I could choose one last thing to play. I'm a perfectionist, I wanted to choose something not too easy but something I would nail but I took too long to decide, so my teacher chose something for me. He made me learn how to play the intro riff of Stevie Ray Vaughan's version of "Mary had a little Lamb". I had never heard it before and when I did, I was petrified! How was I going to play that?! Remember, this was my first year! I didn't nail it but I passed the test.
I just subbed hoping for more SRV!!!❤. Your reaction was great. It’s your channel, so you do as much pausing to avoid copyright issues as possible. If somebody doesn’t like it, tell them to start their own channel and do it their way. And YES to Texas Flood from this same concert. It’s just amazing ❤❤❤
Oh that's so sad you didn't see Texas flood. I have the entire concert so you know I enjoy it but that is just a classic. You have to come back and
It's just a joy the way he can can keep surprising ya with his guitar.
RIP STV one of the best , tin pan alley live with Johnny Copeland is epic 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I have this entire DVD. It's such a great show. I'm really glad you got a chance to experience it
Don’t feel bad - my first time too
Oh, you're gonna have questions
I was at the last concert at Alpine Valley where afterwards he died in a helicopter crash 😢. And I love your pauses and comments . Here for the reactions ❤
You gotta watch the Texas flood live at the so macombo
He's a great singer; look for Texas Flood in the same set. Unbelievable!
