I was there that fatal night in Alpine Valley Wisconsin. The ticket was Robert Cray, Stevie Ray & Eric Clapton; guest stars were Stevie's brother Jimmy (Fab T-birds) & Buddy Guy. They all jammed together well past midnight. The last song Stevie ever played on stage was Sweet Home Chicago. Funny thing is that's where the copter was heading when it went down with him in it. It is still the foggiest night I've ever known in all my 60 years

I’ve seen Robert Cray, Eric Clapton, Jimmie Vaughan and Buddy Guy. I’d trade them all for ONE SRV concert. 😢

Thank you so much for keeping Stevie Ray's legacy alive. I love your reactions especially when he does his stink face. Why are the greatest ones taken from us too soon? RIP💔 SRV🎸

Stevie didn't make faces, his heart pulled his brain to his hands leaving his face free to dance to the music!

The keyboardist, Reese Wynans is still performing. Primarily as part of Joe Bonamassa's band. And he is still amazing. A living legend.

He is INCREDIBLE. Why else would he be playing for these legends?

My eyes tear up for Stevie when I see him so happy and healthy, done with his demons, the band of brothers still solid with him. If ever anyone has earned and deserves his place as a Legend in music history it is SRV. God bless his soul.

I had the extreme pleasure of seeing Stevie Ray live!

this song is one of the best. such a pure jam. Thanks for viewing this Jamel!

Man, I miss SRV. Such a great guitar player. Gone way too soon.

Watching you react, your face, your body language, your true honest emotional reaction to the music. AWESOME!!! Love watching your reactions. This is now one of my favorite videos you've done. Thanks Man!!!

I am in love with Stevie's music....heck I am in love with Stevie! So talented, so accomplished. There are no words...

SRV can even make kids song sound good.. the man is fire

I cry every time I watch him. I was there in 80’s in Austin on 6th Street. We lost him way too soon 😢

I was stationed in FT. Hood Tx. In 85 & 86. SRV was everywhere, fell in love with him. Seemed like he was just starting to get national attention and then he passed away 😢. Enjoy your reactions always. Would love to have a beer with you and your brothers.👍

This is originally a Buddy Guy song. Buddy Guy and Stevie are the only two guys I know cool enough to pull off “Mary Had A Little Lamb”, with Double Trouble, of course. I saw Stevie play with Buddy Guy the last time Stevie played with Double Trouble in Austin, May 4, 1990. Buddy played in Austin last Saturday. He’s 87 now, and has been recording since the 1950s. Hendrix studied him. You should check out the great Buddy Guy. Thank you for this!

The whole band is amazing

My all time favorite guitarist. Thank you for reacting!

Stevie's Bassist, Tommy Shannon, and Drummer, Chris Layton, played with the ARC Angels backing up Charlie Sexton and Doyle Bramhall II. Might be worth a listen. Love what you do, keep up the good work!

I was so fortunate to see him live in NYC 1987. I didn't know who he was, I wanted to see Greg Allman who opened for him. Now I'll never forget who he is, the greatest guitar player I've ever seen. RIP, brilliant man. I thoughts that I'd see you again.

Legend! They have a statue of him here in Texas! It's in Austin, TX on Town Lake!

Damn. I miss this man.

As awesome as this song is from this concert, which was an appearance on "Austin City Limits," the two tracks that stand above all the rest are "Cold Shot," the rare Double Trouble song where it's not Stevie Ray playing the best solo in the tune, but Reese Wynans on the Hammond organ; and the instrumental "Riviera Paradise," which Stevie wrote during rehab and named after the facility where he got clean. It is a gorgeous, yearning, beautiful jazzy voyage, fully imbued with the pain he endured and overcame. He introduced it at the show the same way he did every time he would play it live for the rest of his life: "This one goes out to everyone who is still suffering in any way." My eyes get wet just typing out that sentence. I cannot recommend that song strongly enough for you, Jamel.

I think my brain just melted and dripped out my ears!!!

Stevie played with Buddy Guy on occasion, also Albert King and BB King.

Great reaction! I can tell you can hear SRV by your face, you get it. SRV = THE G.O.A.T.

My absolutely favorite version of any nursery ryhyme!

Love it! How about that keyboardist?!!! Four great musicians on that stage! ☮️❤️😎

Jamel, you go man. You're listening to the best of the best. ✌️🎩

Also Stevie never had a problem with somebody else taking the spotlight. Yeah a lot of respect for a lot of musicians

I love Stevie Ray ❤

The “stank face” is alive and well!! LOL I LOVE IT!! 🤣🤣

The Amalgamator of every great blues lick that ever was, and a good few lines of his very own. One of a kind. Never to be seen again. Blessed be.

"Any reason to funk out, take it" - SRV... This is another transcendental song where he takes us on our tour is different sounds and temps, and we keep asking that magical mystery bus driver to keep driving. I am waiting until you discover CHANGE IT.

Keep listening to Stevie you're going to have permanent Stank Face. Love your channel

Jamel really enjoys listening to SRV and it fun to watch him feel the groove!

Jamel + SRV = a stank face party. You can't help but move, I see you. Great reaction as always.

Love it!! SRV is getting our Friday off to a very cool start☺Thanks Jamal!!🧡

Jamel got the cheek cramps from Happy Stank Face ! 😂

When in college and waiting tables at the Premier Family Pizza Shoppe in our area...Everybody in the neighborhood showed-up to the weekly Friday Night SRV Jam with Pizza, Beer and GREAT COMPANY to make it the most fantastic 'Tip Night' to pay for all those credit hours that saved money on Student Loans. Saw him in Indianapolis right before the tragic crash and his was a show never to forget. Fantastic man always available to his fans leaving a huge mark in music...Gone from the world way too soon.

SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness

Nice to FINALLY react to this song. Thank you

My favorite SRV song

Love your shoulder dancing...

Fabulous!!!!!!!!

The keyboard player is Reese Wynans... Reese currently plays for Joe Bonamassa.

One of the best songs I hard in a long time and the band kicked it up a nach playing all the Instruments so great.

There will never be another STV. Love his music

Loving these today, Jamel.

How the hell do you turn a nursery rhyme into that? When I saw the title I thought it must be a play on words! No, it was no play on words! He flat out blew my mind. The thought that comes to mind is: Someone said "I got a song you can't get a rise out of!" Stevie said "Hold my beer!" Wow!

RIP Stevie Ray

... When the reactor just forgets that he's doing a reaction and just has fun! Great to see you enjoy this gem- The band really was COOKIN"!!!

The keyboard player is now with Joe Bonamassa and has been for a while.

Gone too soon... The legend SRV.

👍😎 SO SO SO GOOD,

Absolutely sick!

So nice listening to this masterpiece and watching you jam out to this and watching your stinkface come out, I love it, thanks Jamal for making my day.

Unbelievable!

❤ 😊 ❤ 😊 Awesome 👌

Graet band behind Steve

can you imagine that as a nursery rhym??

You get Stevie. Also awesome you call out the band. They are phenomenal.

Hot time! Thank you Jamel.

I saw him in 1985 in a small club in New Jersey. It was crazy good. I'll never forget.

Another great reaction to Steve. You can tell he feels every note in his soul.....

You should check out some Joe Bonamassa.

Haven’t seen the “Stank Face” for a while. Better than Groovy is what I say. Brought the “Stank Face” out. Could you imagine Johnny Winter, BB King, Jimi Hendrix, and SRV all on the stage together. What might have been. I really didn’t get into the style of SRV until after he passed away. I regret never getting to see him in concert. What a talent. As they say “the candle that burns twice as bright often burns half as long. “

Hi Jamel, there is a fabulous singer named Imelda May that has some amazing music. Her style is big band/jazz music. She has also performed with Robert Plant Jeff Beck Ronnie Woods etc… she not huge commercially ( which I don’t understand) because she is incredible. Please check out Big Bad Handsome Man and Voodoo Working. I think you will love her

I'd like to see you react to SRV on acoustic guitar, "Life by the Drop". Not sure if there's any video of him playing it live, it came out just before his death.

Shout out to Tommy Shannon on bass and Chris Layton on drums. They have been with SRV since the early days. Reese Wynans on keys was added late in the game. Not that it knocks his skill at all.

This song was written by a great Blues artists named Buddy Guy who was a good friend of Stevie Ray Vaughan's, Buddy Guy wrote this song in 1968 and on July 26, 1968 he released it. Eric Clapton said he was in London Marquee Club in 1965 and he was watching Buddy Guy perform, Buddy Guy picked his guitar and you see Stevie Ray doing that, he played the guitar over his head and with his teeth so when you hear Jimi Hendrix was the original not true it was the amazing Buddy Guy. My husband and I went to see him in Traverse city about 5 yrs ago and what a show, he took the drummers stick and started playing his guitar with the and he was sweating so bad he grabbed a towel wiped his face and started playing his guitar with the towel. Stevie Ray, Robert Clay, Buddy Guy and Stevie Ray's older brother Jimmie Vaughan went to East Troy Wisconsin to open 2 shows for Eric Clapton, Jimmie said in an interview that Stevie Ray came down from his hotel room and told Jimmie he had a weird dream that he died and he was looking down at alot of people crying. On August 27,1990 after Eric Clapton's set they all came out and played Sweet Home Chicago, that was the last song Stevie Ray ever performed and I know you know what happened next 😢

Why does God take the best so early? "If there's a Rock and Roll heaven, you know they have a hell of a band."

Mary had a Little Lamb never sounded so good. RIP SRV. 🔥🎸💔

When you put a guitar in this mans hands, you witness what GOD's talent can do. When it comes to guitars, SRV is GOD. There will NEVER be another with this much talent again. He was self taught. He would listen to old blues icons, and learn it one note at a time. I truly wish that todays artist had a fraction of his natural talent.

Pure guitar Zen. Where would we be without The Blues? And Chuck Berry, and Jimi and Jimmy and Stevie...

You should do some of the songs he did with his brother Jimmy off of the family style album. White boots, DFW, Tick tock, telephone song

Dude you need to do a compilation video of you making your different stank faces, the one you made in this one right when Stevie started his solo was both priceless and hilarious.

I love SRV to the moon. Kenny Wayne Shepperd is carrying on the tradition. Check out the songs on his second album titled Live on.

Don't listen to Stevie without, thinking bout My Baby Brother Ted BIG FAN...RIP To Them

I could be wrong, but you're missing the funkiest SRV song ever. "Couldn't Stand the Weather". He played it at this show. But the one you want is Capitol Theatre 1985.

I figured it be best to comment on your most recent video. I recently got into watching reaction videos and so far I've watched probably 50 of yours. I'm 21 and grew up on classic rock. And I feel the music in the same way you do and I really feel I can connect with you there. Awesome videos. Based on what I've seen, I have two very strong recommendations I'd love to see you listen to. "Drink of Water" by Ambrosia and "My Kind of Lady" by Supertramp. Keep up the great work man! Peace 🫶

I love how seamlessly Reese throws it back to Stevie Ray at around 2:00. That band was tight!

Your channel, I love it.

SRV ,master of the stratocaster .( and the stank face ).

Watch Stevie Ray Vaughan breaks a string! You'll be amazed 👏

Stevie wauu , but the band together outstanding 😘

Mary had a little lamb is a old Buddy Guy song

Great one Jamel!

Hey J, stop havin' so much fun!!! HA!!

Love SRV , Here is a super video " Ry Cooder Concert for New Orleans " Ry Cooder, Buckwheat Zydeco and Lenny Kravitz and The great voice of Irma Thomas. Long video can break t up into parts. Ry Cooder is one of the greatest slide guitarist. He did an album with Taj Mahal last year .

Effortless perfect blues pickin and sliding. SRV live on any night. Sometimes nastier than others. Tin Pan Alley live, I swear I saw smoke and fire coming out around Stevie's nostrils and fingertips. The dude was possessed. Best live performer. All genres. Ever. Rush is best live band on whole but Double Trouble with Stevie out front was a religious experience.

We really watched Stevie touch the sun, didn't we?

SRV is the only man that can take a nursery rhyme and turn it into the blues.

You have to react to him playing Willie the Wimp

This and the live version from Italy have got to be the best versions of this song ever
