When Albert King puts his arm around you and says "You're the only white boy with a black daddy." and begins introducing you as his son... You are the GOAT. Period. End of story.

[@no.441]

Srv was on a whole other level than anyone I've ever seen I miss you stevie God took you too quickly from us

[@thatsmyassbrostop]

That's actually pretty fucking weird to say.

[@spddiesel]

Let's take a moment to appreciate Double Trouble, one of the best damn rhythm sections ever. 👍

[@timmurphy479]

This song has been done by many people but Stevie Ray is the best version

[@UglyDoug304]

Isn’t it amazing that he never hesitates. Clapton said it best. “Stevie Ray Vaughan was an open channel. The music flowed out of him naturally. Never lost. Never a mistake. Just incredible. One of a kind that we will never see the likes of again…….EVER!❤

[@midnitesunblues]

You guys noticed how Stevie doesn't let up at this show. Before the show, Stevie actually said that he was gonna go out there and 'Not let up.' It happened that way for real. Chris and Tommy said that they didn't even have a chance to grab a drink between songs. Stevie never played from a Set List - it was all from his gut and heart and the guys were right there with every beat flawlessly backing him.

[@gl15col]

Yes, we should never forget Double Trouble kept up with this madman without ever missing a beat. They were righteous brothers to a great Texas bluesman.

[@shirleybuffington6420]

Yes he did in one tour he was on tour with Jeff Beck and they demanded he use one and he said that was so restrictive and did not like it at all he likes to just go on stage and play whatever song he wanted .

[@shellycasbeer3775]

I know you guys would enjoy Stevie Wonder and SRV doing Superstition together. It's amazing. So much to enjoy when you think of either artist. SRV was simply special🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

[@AirplayBeats]

We just watched that. Video of that should be up soon

[@itsmeshay8089]

Wow I gotta check that out! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@subversivelysurreal3645]

SRV was suuuch a beautiful person.❤

[@kwanshiyin]

Shout out to his band, who never knew where Stevie Ray was going (he never played anything the same way twice) and had to be ready to follow him.

[@jamesknox7171]

This show is one of the best live performances ever recorded. I've said it before, but it is well documented that Stevie was very high on cocaine for this show, which explains a lot of the sweating, and yet it is still one of his best shows ever!

[@debbiegrubb6235]

That's what always made it even more amazing to me - that he could be as high as he was and still never miss a single note. Ever. SRV = GOAT!

[@mrnobody9104]

There has never been another guitarist that had a flow like SRV. I always wondered if the well would run dry at some point but he'd reach down in that bag o tricks and there it always was. The man stood on the shoulders of all he idolized before him...

[@scottpatton9112]

There are no labels when it comes to this music. They are the best at what they do. There is no better than they’re just is.

[@tjmasson1013]

Never been a more mesmerizing player. Like hypnosis watching him flow

[@mikecalderon5251]

Can you imagine playing a Jimi Hendrix song and have your eyes closed the whole time and still play it to perfection? That's what sets SRV apart from all of the others...

[@rbking9296]

Y’all gonna love Hendrix’s original version Jimi sings the lyrics of the song and the lyrics are great! Beautiful song

[@wesalker3479]

You're gonna love "Riviera Paradise" and "Lenny", a tribute to his wife.

We did both of those. Check out our SRV playlist

[@AirplayBeats]

[@ldelcors]

Not going to lie. I started following you guys a little while ago for your reviews on SRV. But, this is the one song I was waiting for you to see. It's always good to see a younger generation show respect and appreciation for what was done in the past. You guys have a blessed day.

[@johnwick7790]

That song from SRV was an homage to Jimi Hendrix mother. Notice he didn't sing because only Jimi could sing to his mother. He also played small parts of other JH songs because he was SRV influence to play for other people.😊

[@ryanmetalfinishing1083]

to show you how great he was, watch the 'soundcheck' he does. just amazing what he can do stone cold to unreal in 1 second.

[@jeffkocik8345]

The studio version of this song is amazing. You should definitely check that out on your own time.

[@scottlaughlin9897]

Unlike the other songs he covered by Hendrix the almighty. This one he really made his own!

[@jacqueline4514]

This is Jimi Hendrix's song, and Stevie absolutely did it justice; I like the fact he made it purely instrumental; it seems more respectful that way. He made the guitar sing ❤

[@Azabaxe80]

True. This is one of Hendrix's signature songs, and SRV didn't deviate very much from the original arrangement. Very respectful, but oh so soulful. When I was a kid I slagged SRV for being a Hendrix clone, but very quickly I recognized the error of my ways. Unfortunately, soon after I realized how great he was, he passed. One of the few regrets I have in my life is never having seen him live.

[@gdb520brig8]

That guitar didn't have a chance, not with those handsThat guitar didn't have a chance, not with those hands. Best quote this week

[@AM-qc3vk]

Stevie had laser precision on the guitar. He never played the same song the same way. He just needed the basic riff to work with!

[@1skyofrog]

He is the only person I know of who took a Hendrix track and made it his own.

[@ledzep570]

The best compliment to Jimmy hendrix that he worked so hard to emulate him

[@merrillhess5626]

Do a KZbin lookup for Jimi Hendrix Little Wing solo. SRV's cover is essentially a faithful rendition of Jimi's solo but embellished with Stevie's style. Both are fantastic and hearing Jimi's original (improvised) version shows just how great he was and why SRV admired him so much.

[@richardbarton6146]

Truly God gifted talent!!! He just took over from where Hendrix left off..

[@mik9124]

No words, just listening the tribute to Jimi's best Song ever

[@pokethebear5788]

Tin Pan Alley performed by SRV and Jonny Copeland will blow your mind . Blues at its electrical roots !

[@chrissiler6075]

I saw Stevie LIVE twice. OMG instant memory of the second time. Shivers

[@aj71169]

I swear that look at 5:15 was him going ‘oh, hey Tommy’ cause he has just gotten back from wherever he went

[@jessisanchez8150]

I recommend Stevie Ray Vaughan "Things That I Used To Do"1984 ft. Jimmy Vaughn his older brother 🔥🔥🔥

[@itstherick]

Every show he did was flat out AWESOME! And he was paying tribute to Jimi with his fills and at the end.

[@jaimeschumann68]

GENIUS.. A BLESSING !!!

[@yvonnepoortinga8170]

A man possessed by the spirit of the guitar 🥰

[@WhoWouldWantThisName]

The thing about Stevie is he never played anything the same way twice. So when you explore other performances of the same sings you are always in for a treat. His brother used to say that he never even played anything the same way once, haha. Oh and yes, this is a Jimi Hendrix song. He also covered Hendrix's Voodoo Chile.

[@KillerNetDog]

listen through just listening to the Bass player, great player, used to play with Johnny winter back in the early 70's, Winter is another guitar god..

[@jamesfoley2658]

He hits all the right notes , he changed the direction of my guitar playing

[@deanreedy4991]

Was just listening to Srvs brother Jimmy's tunes earlier today, him and Chris Duarte another Texas blues guitarist

[@mcyngbld]

ii have been a fan for a long time. i worked secutity back in the day at Hara Arena and saw stevie open for jeff beck. this is the song that i want a female to dance to.

[@minigirl6839]

I'm just gonna keep posting this 👉 Y'all really need to watch : Jeff Healey and Stevie Ray Vaughan-"Look at Little Sister ". I'm not even kidding about that performance. It will blow your mind. Stevie Ray allows Jeff to shine ✨️! It's a once in a lifetime must watch. Jeff was blind BTW. 🥳💯💣💥

[@proudarmymom8657]

This is another Jimi Hendrix song, but Hendrix version had lyrics. Stevie made this song, his own removing the lyrics, and just taking that entire guitar solo to a whole other stratosphere!! Stevie Ray Vaughan recorded an instrumental version in 1984, although it was not released until 1991 after Vaughans death his interpretation of the song won the 1993 Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance.

[@CoolCoyote]

jimmy was wonderfully complex, srv doing this is great, i wish guitar person would try this lol

[@snakeinthegrass7443]

"I like that '83 Stevie Ray". Couldn't have said it better. That's around when I got my very first CD - SRV Soul To Soul. Still have it to this day!

[@fishad09]

Welcome to life after hearing srv you won't be the same after witnessing greatness

[@midnitesunblues]

At this El Mocambo show Stevie moves from Little Wing right into Third Stone from the Sun, which is mind blowing to say the least. Highly recommend y'all get back to this and watch the two together. If you like Stevie, It's not to be missed. seriously. Another great reaction to SRV. thanks for keeping it going.

[@patoriq345]

you totally missed the transition after Little Wing....into Third Stone from the Sun....which is also a Jimi song.....about aliens arriving to earth and the battle that happens...makes missile sounds with his guitar. A must listen for SRV fans.

[@UglyDoug304]

SRV was preaching to the world. What a beautiful human being. I fantasize just thinking of the things that this man would have accomplished musically and spiritually had he lived a long life. We can only imagine but my money is on Stevie ❤

[@WhoWouldWantThisName]

Fun fact. Stevie's older brother Jimmie Vaughan, from The Fabulous Thunderbirds, had a band in the '60s that toured with Hendrix around the south and rumor is the wah pedal that Stevie used he got from his brother, who in turn had bought it from Jimi Hendrix while on tour. I don't know if it's true but I like to think it is that Stevie played Hendrix covers with his own wah pedal. It is possible.

[@212x3]

Thank God someone remembered to hit record at El Mocambo.

[@tomcleland3422]

I saw this same in Detroit on this same tour in 1983. I also saw him about a dozen times after that every time he came around the Detroit or Toledo area. He was the best. He is my number one. I like your guys reactions the best. You do it so intelligently. Keep it up

[@cweefy]

Complete mastery of the instrument

Your passion for caring deeply about the music you do shows how much you are personally invested in and motivated by the music you provide and give us your insights. It's a joy to see the kinds of music you choose and how much you respect the music and your subscribers. Great job guys. Keep up the hard work and commentary. You should give "Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs" Album a listen - Eric Clapton and Duane Allman (from the Allman Brothers) play some amazing stuff on that classic album.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Yes, it's Jimi's song and it has lyrics (from Axis Bold as Love album). Eric Clapton said that Stevie was a channel for his guitar, the music just played through him. I watched a guitarist try playing with 13 gauge strings like Stevie used and he couldn't do it; hurt his hands too much, too hard to bend.

hard to beat his live performances from El Mocambo but i've mentioned to yall before, check out his live perfromances of "leave my girl alone" and "tightrope" at austin city limits. Hes at the peak of his powers.

[@revgurley]

Both SRV & Prince seemed to speak better through guitar than anything else (yet both could sing). Glad y'all reviewed this song. A relative, who introduced me to SRV (and I introduced Prince to them), said they want this song played at their funeral (hopefully MANY years from now). That's how deep SRV reached into the soul.

[@davidlittle966]

SRV doing Lil' Wing, it don't get any better than that.

[@johnfarmer3578]

At the end when he went over to the Amp they were playing just apiece of (1983 a merman I shall turn to be) by Jimi Hendrix. A long instrumental type song with VERY COOL LYRICS. A very very good song I recommend to listen to while chilling with good earbuds. Like your podcast 👌
