    Technically, a lot of guitarists can play exactly his songs and style note for note, and emulate his sound nearly perfectly. But to duplicate his voice, that is another matter. And to duplicate his live stage performance while also playing and singing just like him, well, forget it.

    SRV was just an insane talent. Even other great guitarists have been in awe of him when they seem him play. Most guitarists, even the really good ones, seem to think as they play and you can see them think their way around the fretboard, but not SRV. The music flowed from him through the guitar. What makes his playing even more impressive is that to get his tone, he played heavy gauge strings and could still bend at the first fret and play that fast... amazing.

I was in this little bar Lubbock Texas with some friends there was probably only 7 people in the whole place. He was being social with everyone. After a bit he went on this tiny stage played for 20 min straight after having just played a concert. He blew me away then. He will be greatly missed

He freestyled everything. You can watch him perform the same songs at different venues, and they are all unique and all incredible. We have a statue of him here in Austin. You should come down and see it sometime, if you're ever in Texas. Stevie Ray was a natural born world shaker. Enjoy yourself as you work through his music. 🤠🥳👌

    your so right he just plays his souls music and his expression is always original, I find it a bit frustrating at times that people and even musicians and guitarists seem to think when they try to play a song like this that they need to try and copy, they must spend hours and hours trying to do everything a master like SRV does and I think they often dont realise that Stevie just played without even thinking, he was just following the music in his heart,, I really dont like to try and copy a lead break another guitarist has recorded, firstly its just way too much work and secondly my heart and soul have their own music that I want to play,, I will never sound like Stevie or any of the other greats, but i do sound like me and i think thats something we should all aspire to as musicians,,

He said that Stevie became transfixed, completely lost in his music. That is more than just talent. That is what you witnessed here. And that is what sets Stevie apart from everyone who has ever played, no matter how good they are. You can see it and you just know it.

She immediately said that his middle name will be Vaughan. He took up the guitar when he was 15yo & within a couple years turned into a hell of a blues/rock guitarist. He's now a consummate all round musician and recording engineer. We still still tell him it is the essence of Stevie & the name 'Vaughan' that gave him the talent. He's a hell of a guitarist now.

    One of the very best of a small group of blues guitarists who rule the genre. Outstanding voice and a master of his instrument. There were a few others, each with their own style and strengths, but Vaughan had a passion that couldn't be surpassed. Johnny Winter, the Texas Albino, is another one worth a listen, and his brother Edgar, (also an albino,) playing keyboards and sax had a magnificent voice. Rick Derringer, a guitar wizard in his own right often played with both of them. Of course Hendrix when he played straight blues was pretty magical. And if you want to hear someone who's a perfectionist at his craft listen to Eric Johnson. But you picked a great one to start on that journey. Stevie Ray Vaughan was very special.

He had already premiered on David Bowie's album Let's Dance but his own first album had not come out yet. He was quiet and in between playing one hour sets at the club. Fitzgerald's held about a thousand people it was packed. Saw him again many times, many places. Before he got well known, we were all looking forward to him being a great success and when the record came out it was a great success.

Being a devoted fan of the man for 40+ years it does my heart good to see reactions like yours to his " magic." From the beginning, I saw that the guitar work he put into one song, would be albums worth of songs for the average band. I saw him live 4 times. Always that same intensity!

    Most people have ZERO idea how good he was. He was one of the few people on our planet who could become one with his guitar. If you watch this specific performance and are not moved emotionally, you are a zombie. Guitarists often try to imitate SRV, but nobody will be able to duplicate his sound, precision, speed, and delivery. Nobody. Ever.

    I am so glad you got to see this. The one thing I wasn't expecting from my reaction to your reaction was that I would start laughing so hard I was tearing up. Your reaction to him playing behind his back was priceless, especially when he started singing at the same time. I don't think I was laughing because it was funny, as much as it was a joyful reaction to you seeing something amazing. I think you summed it up best by saying he was a magician.

    I would think that Stevie made mistakes in his playing just like every other guitarist especially an improvising genius,, its just that no one would ever be able to tell because he knew how to use every sound and note and even if he landed somewhere he didnt want to be he just made it right,, we will never know and it doesnt matter because it always sounded amazing,,

    Oh wow you already watched it! I enjoyed your reaction! I knew you would be blown away, and you surely were blown away. He is the greatest guitar player ever recorded. I have heard so many from the past but this man stands head and shoulders above the rest. I had the pleasure of seeing him twice live. The first time Jeff Beck who in my opinion is the second greatest guitar player ever recorded, opened the show for Stevie. They played together at the end and it was awesome seeing them together, but Stevie was better. The second time I saw him was a Friday night show at the Kalamazoo county fair the weekend he died. My ears were still ringing Monday morning when I heard on the car radio that he died. I had to pull over and wipe away my tears and recompose myself. Rest in Peace Stevie, I hope to see you in heaven.

It's hard to pick the GOAT but he is in the Top 5 for sure if not in the Top 2. If you want to see a recorded concert of him at Austin City Limits, it's out there. It's a must see.
