First Time Reaction | Stevie Ray Vaughan - Riviera Paradise LIVE | Reaction

[@brheinfeldt]

Reese Wynans really got to shine in this video and showed how he could truly compliment Stevie Ray's music! ❤

[@rogerdaly6326]

After Stevies passing everytime i listen to this song i think about if he had not passed the music he would be playing today. The piece shows the jazzier direction he was venturing into and this song is masterful.

[@212x3]

His song "Mary had a little lamb" from this same concert (Austin city limits) will blow your mind.

[@piedmontish]

Yes!!

[@midnitesunblues]

When Stevie says "This goes out to everybody who's suffering in any way" he Really Means it. makes me cry like a baby, every time.

[@wesalker3479]

That guitar is "Lenny" given to him by his wife, Lenora and a few friends that purchased it for him cause, it cost more than he could afford, at the time. It's the gutiar that he plays "Lenny" on, dedicated to his wife.

[@whiteroses47]

This song is stunning, just beautiful. It makes me sad that Stevie Ray Vaughan is gone. And even though this lovely tune is mellow, it stirred up emotions within me. When SRV was pulling at those strings, he was pulling on my heartstrings. How kind and humble of him to dedicate the song to those who are suffering. I think SRV was clean and sober for a couple years when he did this song. And the keyboard player is Reese Winans. The band was very much in tune to Stevie Ray. Great team!

[@ronaldelliott4373]

This was both, his final written composition and last track on his final studio album (In Step) before his passing. It’s also his final performance from the brilliantly produced show called Austin City Limits. Should just review each song from this episode. Audio and video supervisors along with the show’s crew are Top Shelf, as was his entire band. 🍻 Here’s to a great artist and a finer person. God rest his soul…

[@conniehorton1981]

Thank you for revisiting SRV❤️. Absolutely no one else speaks to my heart and soul like he does. In my opinion, I would rather watch him than anyone else!!! This guitar is named Lenny. His former wife, Lenny, and some of his friends threw in to come up with the $350.00 to purchase this guitar from a pawn shop for his birthday. It sold at auction a few years ago for approximately $653,000.00. From what I read, Guitar Center in Austin owns it and prominently displays it in their store❤️❤️❤️

[@jackscott5593]

SRV ~ 🎸🐐 The goatiest goat in all of goatness

[@midnitesunblues]

Always here for Stevie. Thanks for getting back to him.🎸

[@vomhausmann]

Yes....me too....always here for the master!

[@pablozee6359]

While Stevie played Number One/First Wife on many songs, it wasn’t exclusive. If you continue down the rabbit hole, you’ll notice a few guitars. It always sounds like him, though.

[@oldgoat9227]

Stevie will always be pure magic

[@wesalker3479]

- - - - - THIS . . . is the REAL SRV . . . along with "Lenny" and "Little Wing" (live) . . . . . ALWAYS look for Stevie's live videos.

[@Donnagilbert6497]

Lenny and Little Wing from El Macombo!! A must!

[@Donnagilbert6497]

Pretty sure the name of this particular guitar is “Lenny.” He had Butterscotch, Charlie, Number One, and several others in full rotation along with many more.

[@Donnagilbert6497]

Reece Wynans!

[@jessisanchez8150]

One of my favorite cities to visit is Austin, TX. SRV passed away in 1990, but to this day you can find murals of Stevie at venues he use to play at. LEGEND

[@skipjohnson7255]

One of a kind , you'll never hear anyone better ! RIP Stevie we miss you !

[@shirleybuffington6420]

This song is perfect to put in and listen to when you have had a really bad day sit in a room with headphones on and close your eyes and just let it take your stress away .

[@TexasMagnolia]

Been too long. There is so much great live performances from this beautiful human being! A Marathon is a Must….Next: Soundtrack (amateur footage) Life Without You

[@linngrinch8471]

GOAT. During your guitar journey, please check out Jeff Healy. Jeff was discovered by Stevie Ray Vaughan in Toronto and went on to have a successful career of his own. Jeff Healy- As The Years Go Passing By (Stuttgart Jazz Festival)

[@kathyyoung9539]

No he is better then all of them combined. He is still to this day No.1 and always will be. Period. ❤❤❤❤

[@danapierson7207]

Beautiful song! I listen to this sometimes before I go to bed to relax me and take away all the stress of the day. Thanks for reacted to SRV. It has been awhile. SRV THE Goat!

[@conniehorton1981]

Don’t hesitate to do the same song from different venues because he never played the song the same way. You’ll get a totally different experience. An example would be Tin Pan Alley featuring Johnny Copeland is imo even better than the Tin Pan you reacted to from Capitol Theater. Also, Mary Had A Little Lamb from this same Austin 89 concert is amazing. There are still lots of SRV reactions left for you to do!!!

[@skipjohnson7255]

Oh , he's better than anyone !!

[@dreww1609]

Much respect to all the respect you've given Stevie over the last couple years.

[@claireburling8547]

Beautiful. There's a reason, it all came from within. Just love him so much for who he was and everything he gave. ❤

[@lisar.6670]

If there is ANY compositions, both lyrical and instrumental, that Stevie Ray covered and/or penned but never got to release .. I wish somebody would make contact with his brother Jimmy and discuss putting together a box set entirely made of unreleased material. Any 'never-seen-before' videos would be awesome also. I'm assuming Jimmy has custody rights to all his/their music. Anyone who grew up with the Vaughan brothers and still has a relationship w/Jimmy .. I HOPE YOU SEE THIS. Jimmy's 73 and life is ticking by. Just one of many, many fans! T.Y. RIP Stevie Ray ... RIP🌹🎸

[@bluesrock1]

The 59 Strat was his favorite, but it's not the only one he played. Stevie had 4 or 5 guitars on stage at his live shows.

[@tuckylady71]

This is my favorite piece. I love so much of his music but this one can make me either chill out or cry depending on my mood.

[@brheinfeldt]

Check out his song, Tick-Tock. That song actually debuted at his funeral.

[@murraytomlinson6562]

I love listening to many different guitarists. David Gilmour is great. Of course, Eric Clapton is legendary. Jimmy Page has always been a favorite of mine. I could mention more, many more. They each bring something unique and special to music. Stevie Ray Vaughan, however, is my all-time favorite. It's like coming home. No guitarist touches my spirit like he does. I feel every note in my soul. I really can't explain it any other way.

[@MrBarryb505050]

This is my favorite SRV piece of music

[@shibolinemress8913]

This and Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland are two of my favourite songs to help me unwind before going to sleep. And Love Struck Baby/Rude Mood get me going in the morning! 😊

[@xers999]

There're so much emotions packed into this song. The pains, the regrets, the memories... (the gentleman who plays keyboard is Reese Wynans who's with Joe Bonamassa these days)

[@nethanelmasters5170]

All the great girarist of the 80's played with Stevie Eric Clapton said when they played at festivals no one ever wanted to follow him because who could. Stevie mentors. BB King, Albert King, and all the other great blues players and singers.

[@Niteowlette]

Stevie had a style all his own. Another great guitar master who is very much missed. Check out the duo SRV did of Pipeline with Dick Dale. You might want to check out Dick Dale as well who was a left handed upside down guitarist. While you're at it, have a listen to Gary Moore. You will love Parisienne Walkways. 😊

[@debrawardlaw4558]

Stevie had several guitars, some with stories behind them, most notable the one called "Number One" or "Number One Wife", that beat up strat with finish missing. Also, the story behind the "Charlie", his white strat which was made especially for him by Charlie Wirtz. He uses it on the song "MIssing You" and he does a spoken message that was really special after he collapsed from alcohol and drugs and got sober....special!!!!

[@KennyRansom-l5k]

If Someone accuses SRV of "Only" playing the blues , play "Riviera Paradise " for them to shut them up . The story of the studio take that got on the album is in itself amazing . The band had been working on the song all day & couldn't get it . One take to slow , another too fast etc. The engineer had kept tape rolling through out the session & they try again and this time they are On It ! But the reel of tape was running out & the engineer knew he had the take , but would they finish up before the tape ran out ? He gets drummer Chris Laytons attention finally & signals to him to wrap it up and they do so just in time as the tape ran out right after they concluded that take . Sometimes Luck smiles on you 🙂

[@KennyRansom-l5k]

A Little something more. - What Clapton thought of SRV's playing during his last few days: “The worst thing for me was that Stevie Ray had been sober for three years and was at his peak. When he played that night, he had all of us standing mere with our jaws dropped. I mean, Robert Cray and Jimmie Vaughan and Buddy Guy were just watching in awe. There was no one better than him on this planet. Really unbelievable,” Eric Clapton said.

[@myownchannel247]

You found it! This piece of music is a real masterpiece and he dedicated it to anyone suffering in any way, that’s because it’s like mercy 🙂‍↔️ Reese Wynans on keyboards 🔥

[@ccrowe256]

Try "Love struck baby"/"Rude mood", Daytona Beach! It is absolutely classic Stevie Ray Vaughan and amazing as always!

[@arthurlangford5861]

#1 wasn't used for everything. Different guitars have different feels and uses for what an artist is trying to evoke. I feel like if Stevie had played a toy guitar, it would've still sounded phenomenal! Reese Wynans was the keyboardists name. I believe he's still around playing with Joe Bonamassa

[@starfire6122]

Yes you left Stevie too soon, so now you have to react to ...Ain't Gon Give Up On Love and Change It both live at The Capitol Theatre please lol!💞✌️

[@leemiracle6840]

Stevie didnt play guitar, he was one with it, it was part of him.

[@chitownlee]

Reese Wynans. Several Months after this was the helicopter crash. RIP 😢

[@jerrypass7135]

It was very close to a year later.

[@piedmontish]

Great Choice! Another excellent suggestion is his version of “Superstition “ (if you do the video version you get the bonus of a very special guest star, who obviously did not mind sharing the song!😄).

[@chrissiler6075]

I saw this Live in KC like 6 weeks before he died in Wisconsin to say I'm emotional is an understatement

[@CatherineFlading]

I feel like you should explore more of Billy Joel. Scenes From an Italian Restaurant, Goodnight Saigon, Summer Highland Falls, NY State of Mind, Pressure, and many many more. I do sooooo enjoy your reactions!😊

[@aj71169]

Generally SRV live is the way to go, but the studio version of this captured a piece of magic.

[@roadkill7314]

I'm impressed by the technical prowess of a lot of the shredders (Eddie for example) and I enjoy their music. But guitar doesn't get much better than this! It's not about speed; it's all about the feel. Stevie and David Gilmour for me!

[@HS-hr5wp]

Big fan of your reactions. You get it. Thanks

[@turntbyhi-lo3516]

Scuttlebuttin, you gotta do Scuttlebuttin.

[@Buds1own]

Great reaction!!! Psalm 138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.

[@MaxBoor]

Stevie used that guitar in calm songs. It's called lenny and it gave a much nicer sound for those types of songs

[@rickfrazier3528]

The guitar you speak of is" number 1"...commonly refered to as his second wife..the guitar seen here is "lenny"...given to his as a gift by his wife and members of the crew...

[@revaflowers3115]

This is just one song in his performance. He has probably changed guitars already for some reason(broken string,needing retuned,this song needs a slightly different sound).

[@MrCrkeenan]

The Album Version is Just as Good, If not Better.

[@onthatdirtroad]

Time for Lenny from Tokyo

[@ezed3902]

I bet the one is worth a lot of money

[@tireshredderjoe8894]

Reese Wynans

[@craigreid7178]

SRV is a phenomenal guitar player/singer but have you heard Gary Moore? He is the true GOAT. I've been a musician since 1963 and have heard many of the greats live including Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Jeff Beck and many more. IMHO - Gary Moore is the undisputed G.O.A.T. The greatest that ever lived. Here's the proof - something that I think is the greatest recorded guitar performance ever recorded. "THE MESSIAH WILL COME AGAIN" Here's a link for you to check out - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZyTaJ1tgch_p9k

[@neilmceachren7112]

Try early Fleetwood Mac with Peter green

[@kurtschmidt9760]

He is really a better guitarist in my opinion, name them all and he is still the best.

[@MrBarryb505050]

Listen to Lenny, and Little Wing

[@shirleybuffington6420]

I think he broke a string earlier in that show

[@roycarney-oe7so]

if not o well

[@kurtschmidt9760]

You are going to get dizzy shaking your head.

[@skipjohnson7255]

Wyans

[@bogdog1755]

SRV is great of course, but Rory Gallagher or Hendrix would actually be the GOAT

[@roycarney-oe7so]

i have some jams you may be suprsed im 63 and i have a lot
