It was reported that when his brother was at the crash site...he found the Coptic Cross Stevie wore in that video in the debris field....kinda a letting know all is alright. Ya feel me? Plus his drummer would talk about a dream he had of Stevie and they were jamming...and after a bit in his dream, Stevie would say, "I have to go". Ever wonder if in our honest dreams, it could be a possible real connection to loved ones? Adios hoss 👍 keep rocking! UP THE IRONS!!!

This. Exactly. One of my favorite Jimi tracks is the long form "Voodoo Child", not slight return. Jimi was a pioneer, and flipped guitar on its head, with some otherworldly talent and amazing tracks/performances. Stevie was an evolution of Jimi that was damn near from another dimension. I love them both, and it doesn't really seem fair to compare the two, even though they're really the only ones you can compare the other to.

@@subzero308 Stevie himself stated he was INFLUENCED by the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Albert King, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters and Jimmie Vaughan(his brother) with whom he accredited his love of playing guitar. Nobody said Stevie did it first, they are saying he was able to carry on a dying genre of music and he put his own signature on just like Hendrix, Albert and many more did before them. Personally I prefer Stevie's singing voice over Hendrix's, but there are things about Hendrix I that I'd prefer over Stevie's version. Stevie had his own sound that was influenced by people he looked up to and Hendrix had his own style that was influenced by people he looked up to. At the end of the day they were both out of this world talented and had they ever met I would like to think they would have gotten along, but that's something we will never know.

I could never pick who I loved the most Jimmy or Stevie I come at it like a mother I love them the same but for different reasons.

this dude CRACKS me up every single time. please never stop making videos dude. of all the quote-worthy things you said and things you did in this video (like trying to light up behind your back lol), my favorite thing is how you fall on the couch to start the video. always like how genuine you are as well.

Dude you're hilarious😂😂 Your videos are like showing a friend something you love and hoping they love it too, and they do😄 And Stevie was clean at this point! Nothing in his body but blues and soul😌

“I’ve said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.” - B. B. King

Jimmy was still in his 20s when he died, and Stevie was in his mid 30s here and at the top of his game. I'm sure Jimmy would have kept on getting better and better. Peace and RIP to both.

He's my favorite!! The only guy I could literally listen to all day long, for days. ❤❤❤

I never get tired of seeing people react to this clip. Stevie was a Blues conduit to God.

not only did he break the e string by bending but he plays with big number 12 strings. the man has strong hands. legendary. flawless.

Stevie didn't die, GOD wanted to see him play live.

At that point, he'd have been sober ~3 years, so all he'd be sweating out is awesomeness.

If I'm not mistaken, the string broke on the guitar he called "number one wife" or "wife number one" and the guitar that he switched to was called "Lennie" his actual wife's name.

OMG he was da bomb! I miss him so much. BEST GUITARIST EVER!!! Thanks for reminding me once again how he just took your breathe away watching him do what he loved!❤️

Stevie started playing at 8, began playing professionally at 13. He grew up 8 miles from where I live, in the rough part of town. Worshipped the great blues artists. By the time of this video, he'd been playing around 25 or 26 years. He would play in his sleep. He had the blues in his veins instead of blood. One of the blues greats said he was the blackest white man he ever seen. I just visited his grave on Xmas. RIP Stevie.

The mind wanders as to what he would have given us, had we not lost him. RIP SRV

Stevie was something special and so was his guitar tech. that dude is a pro.

Stevie was so smooootthhhhh and laid back while he is performing miracles with guitars and his voice!

This man can play any riff in the universe with...his...eyes...closed and guess what, he does.

I named my daughter Stevie Ray. The man was the best ever to hold a guitar in my opinion God given Talent at its most. I was fortunate enough to watch him live in concert three different time before we lost him.

it is quite amazing how he was so slick at the switch.

He broke LOTS OF STRINGS! He was 🔥!!

I’ve been to hundreds of concerts since the early ‘80’s. Most of them rock. I never saw anyone that makes playing guitar easier that Stevie. The guy truly is incredibly!

Dude that reaction during the change off was what I was waiting for lmaoooo

SRV died when I was 8, didn't hear the music until 2000. Stayed in the 6 disc changer for years.

Ive been waiting since the first SRV reaction to see you react to the guitar switch.

SRV.....was VERY special I cried for weeks when he died ....I was just getting into him

SRV is a smooth operator

I get chills every time I watch this Stevie was the man. He waited until he started to sing and then they brought him a replacement.

He was a master of that axe. He never missed a lick that's Raw Talent.

Dude I love me some Jimi but Stevie was the coolest cat ever and just watching him is so fucking fun. He had a style all his own from the way he played to the way he dressed. And he was a good person.

I agree 100%!! The best that there ever was!!! The speed of his hands is unreal!!!!

Mr. Video you need a hat like that!

SRV is in a league of his own my friend 💯🔥

"Broke a string, fuck it we up here" pretty much sums it up lol

SRV always left it all on the stage, he never held back!

I'm so glad you watched this! Stevie Ray Vaughan is a guitar God. This clip alone shows the massive skills this gentleman had. It is truly a shame he is no longer here.

You honestly make me feel like there is hope for us yet my friend

He was special,so special God wanted him for Himself

Special !! That doesn't even scratch the service , this man was the "Soul of Texas Blues "

I'm so glad I had the opportunity to see him live in Pittsburgh with the Moody Blues. What a show!

Yeah he was something i cant believe he has been gone 30 years already he would have been 65 crazy.

“Tell him hi for me” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My favorite SRV song and my favorite guitarist!! A great legend and he played with other great legends!

It’s like an F1 pit stop. 8 seconds of awesomeness!!

React to Queen "Who wants to live forever" Live at Wembley stadium Friday 11 July 1986.

The GOAT! Period.

Damn right has still playing. Hes a great musician. Wished I'd seen him in concert before his passing

He was mind blowing 🤯

You got me crying 😂!! I live in Dallas and he is a GOAT here! So underrated!! When he died it was so sad!! The boy made that guitar it's on entity!! Phenominal!! RIP

He was very special. Happy u appreciate him and him music.

Thank the crew he had backin' em up. He had the best crew in the business.

Such a effortless change of guitar's

"Well, I might be living in the wrong time but I don't go by comparisons. I go by the truthfulness or the falseness of the whole thing. Forget about comparing, that's where we make our biggest mistake, is trying to put our ego against the other person's." - Jimi Hendrix...bro I'm just glad you like the blues! As a iimi first man myself, just spend some more time with him. But don't worry about forming an opinion on who's best, and if stevie is your man you literally can not lose. You could listen to these guys for a lifetime and never hear it all. Rock on brother.

His change during life without you video is so awesome that if you are not watching closely you will miss it. He also breaks a tooth when he plays with his teeth.

OMG! Behind your back! We’re only a few seconds into this and you make me laugh out loud! You are goooood! Stevie would be proud that you even tried. 😉

Your channel is fun and it is so refreshing and cool that you are introducing a great variety of music to a broader crowd. GOOD ON YOU!!!

Hat off to the Guitar tec too he is the one that made smooth switch possible.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve stared at the ceiling and had that same conversation with god. “YA IM TALKING TO YOU” lmfao that was gold.

If this was audio only you'd never know anything happened. He wad unique. We won't see the likes of SRV again in our lifetime.

Unf..king real!! He's beyond great!!!! Great just doesn't say how good he was!!!

He did the back playing guitar when we went to there concert in the late 80s. Awesome show.

Brother, you did it again!!!! Mad me laugh so hard almost pissed myself with the lighting a "J" behind your back!!! You are heading to the top of my KZread favs list!

You need to see him do Pipeline in concert on same guitar with his brother.

I'm new to me video now ever time I roll one up and chill have to watch me video respect to him and EM SAME B DAY SO BOTH GOATS. STEVIE RAY VAUGHN SAID THAT JIMMIE HENDRICKS WAS A GOD ON GUITAR AND HENDRII SAID STEVIE WAS THE BEST EVER ALL ABOUT RESPECT LUV IT
