@@GranpaMike love it. Tommy Duncan and the rest of the Texas Playboys yes. Bob Wills was from Oklahoma thus making him ineligible for the throne. But it’s a “sliding scale” Monarchy and the Kingdom divided up amongst SRV, TVZ and Waylon & Willie with Billy Joe holding a newly created lesser position of power in an advisory role. The real question however, is will anybody else be worthy after Willie’s gone?

Nay, burn the vacant throne and cast the crown to the barbarians -- let them fight for the scraps as we raise our cups and remember the legends of old!

@@GranpaMike well done Sir Michael Jennings. Well done indeed. Shedding my method writer not actor persona, three things immediately come to mind. 1) it's blatantly obvious to the rest of planet that we probably maybe need our own show. 2) we must do whatever it takes to keep Willie alive. Even if it turns out to be nothing more than a Weekend at Bernie's existence. 3) in lieu of burning the vacant throne. I think it rightfully belongs to Billy Joe Shaver.

That's a bold statement with all the musical greats from the Lone Star state, but one I won't argue with either.

Can we take a second to also recognize the brilliance of Double Trouble. The perfect rhythm section for SRV's guitar-playing. Incredibly tight, in the pocket, and perfectly attuned to what he was doing.

If you haven't listened to it yet, "Pride and Joy" is one of my favorites! You and your wife can dance to it. ❤❤

Can't count how many times I've watched this performance. One thing that probably goes un-noticed: Of course we're amazed at how fast he plays, but also notice how fast & seamlessly he works the pickup switch and tone knobs. He's constantly making adjustments while he plays, and unless you look closely, it's easy to miss.

He was a bit of a perfectionist when playing. If he wasn't getting the exact sound, he'd adjust in real time. David Gilmour of Pink Floyd is another one. Many times he'd wander over to Roger Waters and re-tune his bass mid song.

before he broke big to the rest of the world I got to see him a very small club (200 capacity). I was sitting about 5 feet from him with my college roommate who was friends with Stevie and played with him on occasion in Austin. Stevie Ray changed the standard by which I judged blues guitar players. To say he was amazing understates his influence since he passed. Long Live the King!!!

When the comment is made, "A musician should make their instrument an integral part of themselves." this is what is being talked about.

He just casually kills everything he does! A perfect description of SRV.

Y'all are beautiful! Thanks for throwing my Texas Boy a bone! Can you imagine Jimmi and SRV jamming in the clouds!

The way he bends those notes!! He played with the heaviest strings you can get as well!! Blows me away every time. Truly a master of his instrument, what a loss to the world of music that he died so young.

You have to have her back on to watch Texas Flood live in concert! He plays behind his back and everything! It will blow your mind! It blew mine!

Glad people still bring up the one of the Greatest guitarist in history and enjoying it today. Thanks and may Stevie R.I.P.

he just casually just kills everything...yep .Stevie

Stevie has been gone for quite a while. But he is still one of my favorite guitarists. He was pure guitar magic.

Thanks for covering SRV, my favorite blues guitarist, scratch that...favorite guitarist of all time. Also your gal is lovely, high five. Just liked and subbed for ya'!

SRV, he is the GOAT! No one even compared to him!

Then he turns around and walks off the stage like a BOSS-!!

Audio is awesome in this video ! perfect 👌🏼

The only man I've ever seen play rhythm and lead guitar at the same time. And I was first row stage when I saw him play this a year before he perished in the helicopter crash at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin.

I had the honor of seeing him live twice. The first time he was playing solo; no backup band. He KILLED it! The second time was at Madison Square Garden, on the same bill with Jeff Beck. My God! You can't even imagine what it was like being in the same room with him when he was playing. In the morning of August 28th, 1990, I went to work. The radio was on and the news that he'd died in a helicopter crash came on. I had to go into the back room, I was in tears. We'd lost a great musician.

Stevie Ray Vaughan the GOAT.

Thanks for your love of music 🎶

just imagine what we missed out on...but the caliber of guitarists is so good now...you could see a local muiscian killin this.

Who is this guy? The greatest guitar player that has or will ever walk the Earth...that is who that guy is.

Love this channel!

Great reaction guys. Perfect

Let's not forget. He got his inspiration from the real goat. Rip jimi. Rip srv.

SRV's technical expertise is beyond mortal man's & woman's imagination to understand lol

The Late Great SRV, The Best Blues man there ever was !!! : D

Everything, everyone has said about SRV, but Double Trouble is deep in the pocket on this. Chris and Tommy are just killing it, the only two that could keep up with Stevie.

There are millions of guitar players, but Stevie's guitar spoke an entire different Language.

Just turned my jobs secretary onto SRV💜❤️🎹🎸🎼

Jimi and SRV are one person, just right and left hands of that person. What a gift!

This show was when he was sober. On the cusp of great things.

Another great guitar performance is Prince playing with Dire Straits and Jeff Beck playing the song My Guitar Gentle Weeps. Prince stole the show with his insane guitar playing.

Good stuff! Thanks for sharing.

I know, it doesn't have anything to do with this awesome vid or review, but.......to my bro Rome...... OK, so you often talk about how we should keep going, no matter what. I've been in a bad motorcycle accident 5 years ago, and watching your vids have been helpful for me because I see a new generation discover the music I grew up with (yeah, I'm old!). Listening to you talk about how we should keep trying to work for better has pushed me to start walking again and I hope to one day be able to play guitar like I used to so I can play my wife's and my song again (Been married 31 years and counting now!). You often say that Rome wasn't built in a day, and that's true. My marriage to my beautiful wife wasn't either. It's been worth every step of the way though! I have a whole list of songs I'd love to see your reaction to, but the most important one is our song, "Ready For Love", by Bad Company. Would you favor an old biker and give it a listen?

Watch him jam with one of his mentors: Albert King. There's an hour-long session with those two playing & bantering. Then there's Johnny Copeland & Tin Pan Alley.

You really haven't gotten the full S R V experience until you do "Riviera Paradise". It rounds him out. And it would be perfect for you and your wife. Try the Live in Austin, Tx. video. You won't regret it, and as usual with Stevie, you'll be amazed.
