This man picked out my first ever electric guitar and sold it for way cheaper than he should have. Ray was one of the best people I’ve known.

Great video Jeff. We met once, a very long time ago, probably around the time you did this show. I was s friend of your sister. Hope all is well with you.

Too much is made of Blue Cheer being a proto- metal band. They were so steeped in the blues, however.

@lasjok3r97 5 ай бұрын

Agreed, the first 2 albums are indeed acid rock, which is also referred to as proto metal. But people do overlook the direction they took once they started having lineup changes. But heavy blues is essentially what heavy metal is so, it's a fair assessment. Black Sabbath is a great example. Blue Cheer has riff rock songs but they are just so few compared to the jams with blues progressions.

I was at Ft Hood in 82-83. I’d go to Austin on weekends. I’ve been in his place. I’d seen a guy in there one Saturday tearing it up . I didn’t know who it was. Next Saturday a buddy of mine and me went back I asked who it was. He said Stevie he is at Steamboat tonight with Rank and File. We went and the line wrapped around the corner of 6th Street . A year later in Germany someone in the barracks had his debut lp playing.

Ken O, yeah I member my 1st couple years here, Ray was as accessible as any other sales guy in the place. It helped I'd moved in only 2 blocks away from his store. Less than half a year later, I got to play on the Steamboat stage the last week it was open. Magic Times. It's a fuckin mall now.

Awesome video!! Love see how many really do love this TRUE LEGEND!!! I recently posted a passion project - a tribute to the one & only SRV!! I grew up listening my dads SRV vinyl collection & just visited SRV’s grave…such a great man, being one of the best guitarist who left us all so early at 35…We love your Stevie…a True Legend in every way!!

bought a Fender Pro Junior at his location on S Lamar in early '96.....my first tube amp ever! it cost just a shade over 200 bucks. bought a Rotovibe from Ray himself! he screwed the 9 volt battery into the chassis and put it back into it's box for me. I can't forget the fact that he put one of his guys name on the receipt so they would get credit for the sale! he was a class cat! a part of Texas music history!

That guitar is like Stevie. Its life is all over it. Its scars. Its travels. The countless hours of playing. A lot of life seeped into its grain. They were both perfect together.

@tonym2513 Жыл бұрын

He squeezed life out of it and he squeezed his dna into that guitar. Playing that thing with 13’s on it and the action set higher than a cheap acoustic, his hands were so strong he cracked the neck on it more than once and had it replaced. People that don’t play the instrument can’t understand that. There aren’t many players who ever lived that could play that thing. It would be like a chainsaw to the fingers of any mere mortal. You couldn’t get thru one song. Stevie Ray literally bent an unplayable rig to his will. And made it sound like that. You’re lucky to see something like that once in a lifetime. Don’t blink.

@e.l.norton Жыл бұрын

@@tonym2513 You're right about the action. I saw the guitar up close a few years ago. Got some good pictures and video. The action was not low. But, it was the original neck. The fingerboard wear is unbelievable. The frets were holding on for dear life.

@tonym2513 Жыл бұрын

@@e.l.norton I think I did read somewhere that they ended up putting the original neck back on it after he died? But I’ve also read that it never had the original neck. That it was a partscaster from the time he got it. This’ll be a good reason to do another SRV deep dive, for me.

@tonym2513 Жыл бұрын

@@e.l.norton yeah I went back and double checked. From the time he got it, it was a ‘62 neck on a ‘63 body with ‘59 pickups. Stevie always said it was a ‘59. I can’t find the story about him cracking necks, so maybe that’s bs. But it does verify that after he died, his wife had the original neck (had become unplayable due to frequent fret bar replacement) put back on it and gave it to the family. Jimmie owns it now.

@e.l.norton Жыл бұрын

@@tonym2513 Well, It was original in that it was the neck it had when he bought it. I'd imagine it was the same neck that Christopher Cross had on it when he got it, as well. But, that neck has mojo, man. It drips from it.

I'd like to say that I really looked up to this guy growing up in Austin, and as a young teen in a blues band...I grabbed a new stock strat off the rack and he literally came and took it out of my hands and said if you're not gonna buy it don't touch it. I went in there a few other times thinking maybe it was a misunderstanding, and he was always rude.
