Ally Venable - Lenny - 4/29/22 Dallas International Guitar Festival

[@tommcgeethree]

Stevie Ray Vaughn died in a helicopter crash here in Wisconsin after playing at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in 1990. There will never be anyone like him ever again. Thank you Ally for keeping his memory alive. Bless you. 😁👍🍺

[@dinorockwell3196]

I was at that show at Alpine.

[@tommy2chips]

My favorite SRV song of all time is “Tin Pan Alley “

[@robertnighthawk6724]

Stevie Ray never played an original notevin his life. Contrast to any BB king solo

[@kevinmiller7208]

Yes this is a wonderful ride down Stevie Ray lane. I am thinking keep your eye on Ms Ally. She is gonna be bringing some magic blues to the arena.

[@_leopold_butters_stotch_]

​@dinorockwell3196 no you weren't but nice try

[@markhoffman2237]

Fantastic playing! Anyone who can play Stevie Ray convincingly has my respect. I loved Stevie Ray and saw him live from backstage at Bumbershoot in Seattle in 1984. I was supposed to interview him there for a magazine story, but he couldn't do the interview because of his drug problem. Only a few people who were backstage knew how bad off he was before the show; you wouldn't have seen it in the audience because he played so well. Not long after that show, he cleaned up and played far better. He was an amazing player and from everything I could tell, a really nice, humble man.

[@N8_515]

Wow just wow, not many people can even cover srv let alone turn one of his songs into their own style and make it fucking rock, and she just did, thx for blessing my ears, I know srv would be proud ❤

[@robcreel4257]

I literally just discovered this kid, holy crap, I've been missing out. I can't seem to get enough of this amazing artist.

[@darvinclement3250]

She did that absolute justice. Not many people can pull that off and she nailed it!

[@nebaldeby5369]

Beautiful girl, Beautiful playing, Beautiful SRV tune!

[@theoak64]

I love KZbin for this very reason. I stumble on talented musicians like her. Amazing version of Lenny. You know Stevie was sitting that audience just a smiling. Sayin damn I wish I could play with her.

[@RickGraziano]

I miss Stevie so much, and had been listening to his music today. Then I came across this video, and tears are pouring. Damn, what a soulfull, emotional playing of a song Stevie wrote for his lady. Huge talent, and better than just talent, this lady has the feel for the song. Thank you for giving us this.

[@SuperEvilworm]

Holy **** Ally plays like a god! She can sing, she can play and she is beautiful. What more can you ask? This is one of my favorite artists.

[@latkagravas986]

Yep, Great to be Man (us)

[@faizalyahya]

She's my wife😊

[@Rayoflight888]

Released an EP at age 14 -- and you can tell she's been honing her skill for years. Great choice of a tune to play, and so evocative. God, she's good!

[@MAGAMANPATRIOT]

I love to see so many young player's coming up lately. They'll keep the old music going and layin it down like Ally here.

[@МаминСибиряк-т4у]

Согласен с тобой ))

[@bumpyroad3251]

I hope so...

[@jeffstapleton8695]

Stevie was taken from us & it wasn't drugs or alcohol he died tragically in a helicopter accident at the age of 35 but we all know his music lives on through ally & every other artist that has picked up a guitar & said i want to do this 4 the rest of ny life this is my dream job, who knows why things happen but while stevie was here he played with the greats albert & bb king buddy guy etc & now ally in her way is paying homage to her hero, R.iI.P. STEVIE GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN 🙏🎸🎸🎸

[@jimmyrecce8787]

It warms my heart to see these young musicians keeping Stevie's spirit alive... especially these young ladies...this is good for guitar...keep up the great work Ally.....🎸🎸🎸

[@rusty-times]

Not only Stevie but 'all' their parents/grandparents music. Some realize this was rock music at its peak. (It wasn't Madonna 😂) Couldn't get any better... imo 👉 This was good stuff! Hope we'll be seeing more. Beautiful playing!

[@planeandsimple431]

Jimmy Recce... Warms my heart as well. That's why I will continue to drop amazon links for SRV Live At Montreux 82/85 DVD to the younger generation. Trust me, it will be the best 12 bucks you ever spend.

[@SnoopDougieDoug]

@@planeandsimple431 FACT-a-Mundo, Homie.. Belongs in ANY serious music lover's collection, regardless of preferred genre. Performances like that cross over so many boundaries and is that magical stuff that powerful influences on future, yet uncreated, genres...are made of. The kids that will listen to that performance, and then go on to align the planets with their very own totally unique flavor of "Wyld Stallyns" music ,,, ,,,those kids have yet to poach that old school silvery disc from the back of dad's closet and figure out how the kids in the 80s used it to doenload OUR streaming tunes. But one day they'll crack that code That will feel akin to my finding the Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck guitar and drum only tracks that I scored at a thrift store in 1987. It wasn't the Summer of '69, but you can bet your 4th point of contact that I "Played until my fingers bled". Stevie and Jimmy are the only other two that ever managed to coerce me to blood-let my fret hand, voluntarily, I'm shocked by the level of blessed my born in 1975 ass has been to be ALOIVE at the same time as so many of these GIANTS. This gal covering the tune is restoring my faith in tomorrow. A lot. She impresses the living SHIT out of the old retired Sarge, here. " " Our God is a Generous God...(is He not?)\

[@luisg6163]

Agree we need more girl players. Most of time women sing buuut they play guitar just as well. Making that strat sing.

[@curtisprice9806]

I needed that emotion in an ugly place in time. Music with heart felt feeling. Great guitar playing!

Holy crap. Was not expecting that. SRV is smiling.

[@calsurflance5598]

Stevie himself would be giving this a standing ovation! Well done young lady! Just beautiful and serene!

[@AFloodofSolaceJohnWhigham]

Amazing.

[@syfman6]

So great to see the youth falling in love with music, keeping Rock and Blues alive! Awesome! Great plating! 💚 🎸

[@johnwilson2414]

Just stumbled across Ally last night, omg she is extremely talented. It makes me feel good to know there are young people who can feel the greatness in my era of music. I would like to see a tour with Ally and Samantha Fish, what an absolute great show that would be.

[@rickchipman4477]

Outstanding tribute to one of our greatest...Texas rocks!

[@Deliquescentinsight]

Really nice version, genuine feel and a wonderful tribute to Stevie's classic Strat tone piece-thanks

[@JS3music]

One man band here kzbin.info/door/7KP4FMP1a934I1Ob1Uvtsw

[@garysilva2567]

Thanks for that great Tune it warms the soul of hour great Steve Ray who is Resting In Peace God Bless You

[@petermitchell1191]

Ally is one of my favorite vocalists but I have not been impressed with her guitar work until now. Bravo!!

[@guineapig4701]

I saw her in Toronto and she is amazing, just amazing.

[@texgarrett7158]

I'm a huge SRV fan and believe that nobody can really cover him as well as he deserves but I'll say this. Ally covers him as well as he covered Jimi. And that's saying something. I really enjoy watching Ally play.

[@MacSoundSolutions]

Stumbled on this, great tone,great playing, feeling and soul. Nice one.

[@williamgorsuch8892]

Ally’s the whole package ! A beautiful woman with great stage presence, great vocals, and absolutely Great guitar skills ! I listen to her guitar videos over & over ! Kudos to her backing musicians as well !

[@carloshenriquedercoles4096]

Beautiful and great music!!!!!!!!!!! Success! Ally!!!!!🤘👋👋👋👋👋👋

[@gregwimmer7375]

She is really awesome i could watch her play all day and not get bored.

[@steveindorset]

Just WOW!! She is killer!! Close your eyes and that could be Stevie! She got the vibe perfect. Was an absolute pleasure to watch. I’d pay good money to see her play live! Awesome!

[@JohnDoe-jc3cl]

“Close your eyes, and it could be Stevie “ Yes

[@andyeve8]

Incredible. What I love about live recording like this. Is you can imagine being in the audience with your eyes closed feeling every single note. As it's played with such feel.❤🎸🎵🎶🎵

[@BigBig-pt9ut]

Ally, you bless my eyes and my ears. Thank you ❤

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Absolutely incredible. Ive never heard a better version. I cried like a baby

[@yaffajaff]

She is FIRE 🔥❤️ not sure how this ended up on my feed but I'm glad it did. Love from the UK 🙌

[@antonrodman5047]

WOW! Stunning and Ally took me on a truly amazing journey with a SRV classic that she made her own. SRV would be proud! Big hats off to Ally and the band.

[@traubentaucher4035]

Ally, you nailed it and you did something special on your own style ...🌹

[@adamlandau5136]

Awesome display of talent and she's what.. 21?! Wow... just wow.

[@artmartinez183]

I’m a fan !! She plays with such heart, compassion and a whole lot of soul.

[@madmex2k]

I have seen SRV 6 times, even got a few friends to jump on the SRV bandwagon. I loved Texas Flood CD when I purchased it, and played Lenny over and over. When he passed, It was the 1st time I cried for a celebrity passing. I listened to Lenny and Riviera Paradise from In Step, over and over. Later I was going through some really hard times from a bad relationship, and she pawned all my music and equipment to support her habit. I had a substantial collection of Vinyl and CDs, Concert Art and such. It was something I loved and I think she wanted to take away all my love and my heart I guess since I would not support her habits. The 1st thing I replaced was all my SRV music. I put this CD in my car stereo straight from the store. and this song made me cry, made me smile, and made me open my eyes and realize I couldn't languish and just die, I had to move on. Tonight you brought all those memories back to me and I was hanging on your every note, like I was listening in person. Damn Good Work! I will be listening for more of your music and especially your blues guitar.

[@pace.musicman5511]

🎸 Beautiful guitar sound🎸 Bravooo 👏👏👏🎼🎵🎵🎵

[@donaldgriffith3491]

[@johnbosman3219]

Just fantastic! You took an SRV classic and respectfully made it your own. Well done.

[@kenmunozatmmrrailroad6853]

I couldn’t agree more. So many would make a heartfelt attempt to copy leaving disappointment; a true interpretation here- brought me to tears.

[@walterbarkhuysen-tacke548]

WoW. Stunning. Stevie would be proud! A Strat definitely has the soul of tone.

She’s awesome! Glad to stumble upon this video

[@jimhoeppner7132]

I really enjoy her playing - very good "feeling" coming through!

[@russellstevens679]

I was blessed to have grown up in Austin when Stevie was just getting started. I think he would have been impressed but I would have loved to hear him play along side her.

[@wileyearly7051]

That sweet smooth strat sound is an amazing groove. It’s unmistakable.
