He's not playing the guitar behind his back, he's shredding the guitar behind his back. GOAT! RIP! Deeply missed.

This song has a special place in my heart. My family, from New Orleans, we do our morning and crying at the start of a funeral, at the end, we sing and dance and eat. When my mother passed, a few hours before the service, we heard this street performer playing on the corner. 18th Street Red, was his name. Rocking out on a beat up guitar, the man took the first money someone gave him and bought a can of tuna fish and a small loaf of bread. Split the loaf and filled it with the tuna, then tore it in half and gave half to his dog. My aunt and I asked if he knew Texas Flood, he did. Asked if he would play it for us during the service for $50 and all the food he could eat and take with him from the gathering after. The parlor wouldn't let us bring him in, so my brother and I barred and locked the doors as he played. He was so good my stone-faced step father broke down before he even started singing. The parlor workers banging on the doors. He brought down the house. Tried to give us our money back at the gathering. Everyone pitched in to give him what we had, his dog was shocked by the food given and love shown. He hung out with us for the next 3 hours. Damn, I love Texas Flood...

OMG SHAQ YES FINALLY PLEASE, PLEASE DO "VOODOO CHILE" EITHER NASHVILLE 1987 OR AUSTIN CITY LIMITS 1989 Edit: Thanks so much for checking Stevie out, man. Stevie was one of the most humble guitarists this world has seen. And he knew more than just blues. Check out "Riviera Paradise" as well. Preferably at the Austin City Limits 1989 show, but KZread took it down forever ago for some reason. Stevie was deep, deep into drugs and alcohol by 1986, and cleaned up after a near death experience. He composed the song as a "Thank you" prayer for coming out alive. It's probably one of the most beautiful pieces of guitar work I've heard. His story helped me through my own demons, and his 1989 album "In Step" (named after the AA program,) is 100% the reason why I've been playing guitar for the last 8 years.

He performs it during an interview while in Japan during 1985, using a Flying V. And he then mashes it up with Lenny during the Tokyo performance during the same leg of the tour.

SRV is making those faces for two reasons: 1. He's feeling it!. 2. The gauge of the strings on his guitar are of a size that novices cannot handle. He could probably crack a pecan with just his thumb and index finger. Lol

Ur second reason...mixed with how hard he playd those gauge strings was why his guitars were often covered in blood after a show. Man always went hard on the strings.

My dad was a huge fan. In fact, my dad was in high school when SRV was playing around the DFW area and he played a gig at my dad’s school in Garland, Texas. My dad fell in love with his music; his step brother actually knew Stevie through friends because the local rock scene was very close to each other. SRV died about 5 years before I was born, so I grew up listening to his work because he was one of my dad’s favorite artists, the only rock group that’s as linked to Dallas is Pantera, so it only makes sense that the Dallas Stars (the hockey team here) plays Pantera as their theme/goal song and home wins get “The House Is Rockin” by Stevie.

"Ain't nobody fuckin wit you bro!" that is correct, good sir!

“why’s he so mad at the microphone” 😂. That man gave it his all when he performed R.I.P stevie I hope to be like you one day

It's true. Santana is really good & does alot within his ability, but Vaughan is on a whole 'nother level. For one thing Santana keeps the majority of everything he does around the key of A. Vaughan uses multiple key signatures.

Man i can't believe it's been 4 yrs. since i watch this video with you. Wow!

is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will. The stories you hear about this man, if nothing else, have been watered down”

GasserGlass cool that you knew that. You ever see them back in the day when the t-birds would open for Stevie. Saw him few years ago with Dylan. Dylan should have backed him up. Great show little meet and great after his set. He is so humble wouldn’t it be great if t-birds got back together.

Always great to see someone discover Stevie for the first time. "He doesn't know the rules, he's coming out the gate all crazy and making faces". Those of us who know who SRV is are just thinking "Oh, just wait, he's barely getting warmed up!" And those were his clean years. The universe will never know another like him. I'm busting my ass on the guitar trying to get 0.01% of his greatness to radiate through my fingers...

😳 This guy, the reactor, is TOO much fun to watch. His enthusiasm, respect for SRV & presentation are off the charts entertaining.👏🏻. 1/‘24

Best reaction ever my guy! I think it's awesome you pay a visit to the legends! Peace and love to you and yours.

My friend this man was the greatest guitarist of all time and he was a humble man in life.you are getting blues direct from the source when you listen to S.R.V.

He was loved because music flowed through him and he let the music be the most important thing. A lot of players try to make themselves the most important thing by playing, "look what I can do" and the music takes a back seat thereby robbing the listeners of the experience. SRV made it about the music and that is why everyone feels it. He found a way to channel the music through him and surrendered to the music. A great musician is all about the music and not at all about themselves.

He is the best blues rock guitarist, iam so proud, i have saw him live on stage, her energie was crazy ♥️👑
