[@cavdragoon]

Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar), Charlie Sexton, Johnny Lang and the remainder of Double Trouble. Wow. What are super guitar line up.

[@Sibyllblues]

Hey, here's the best rhythm section in Texas, the legendary Double Trouble! And the guitarist, Denny Freeman & Charlie Sexton, such amazing texan musicians! And Gordie Johnson (it's his song i think)& Jonny, who was discovered very early age(just like Charlie)...If people couldn't respect what they're doing: just keep your opinion 4yourself...

[@Katy7540]

No matter how many times I play this, its always SO GOOD! Never get tired of it. Love Jonny Lang too.

[@woodyhayman]

I remember watchin this performance, the other song he did that night was a Dr. Jon tune, that one was probably the best blues performance I have ever seen, wish someone would post that one, I think it was called "No one like you"

[@kingwinky1914]

They Murdered This!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 One of my All Time Favorites!

[@Jesrama1]

very nice performance. Love Jonny and miss Stevie, the one and only, soooo much.

[@williep1626]

One of the best performances I've ever seen.

[@shelayne4]

Damn Jonny is amazing!!! Love it!!

[@holstenfull]

His voice is so er what we call in England bloody good .Just hits the right place with his guitar playin ,WOW!

[@chazz7667]

I miss Stevie Ray, as much as I know he could do it. Johnny would never and should never try. I love both of them for who and what they are. Bless the blues and bless Johnny lang! felt good to see this!!!

[@nvs617]

He always has the best telecasters... I dream of having the one he's playing in this

[@g13maverick]

One of; if not the best performances !

[@zgolijan]

Goose bumps, very inspirational. What a great sound, this people is proof how important the rythym section is, you can be a great player, however, it's the engine room that makes the difference and the cream on the cake. Thanks for posting, I'll be watching this on a few times, lol.

[@ajh909]

That's an impressive stage. So; I am new to Johnny Lang, but I'm in...I'm all in.

[@zestify1623]

This song kicks Ass, Jonny is the king.

[@wendykrautz6762]

Fantastic is all I can say babe.

[@bbqtom1400]

I was there that night. I was asked to feed the band and ACL crew but after watching rehersals I just had to stay. wow.

[@jhnstn1]

You wouldn't happen to have his solo Austin City Limits show from around this same time would you? It's killer.

[@sergeanttibs6345]

Thank you Gordie Johnson for this masterful song

[@Sibyllblues]

What a band....woooooo!!! Jonny, Denny, Charlie, Tommy, Chris and Gordie...

[@Tracer9GTRider8]

Jonny can really bring it!

[@larken558]

What a band !

[@seethrusin]

Gosh that was outstanding. Awesome groove

[@cindybutters4374]

Love it!

[@jfbegley]

great voice!!

[@CrazyHenkie777]

amazing voice!!!

[@speclk19]

He's actually on tour right now, mostly small venues in the South and near California. He & I are the same age so he was a big reason why I first picked up a guitar. I had the opportunity to see him at the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC about 6 years ago, great show. Just do a search here on KZbin, you should be able to find some of his new work. It's a little different than this, but still good.

[@shirleumcdaniel]

AHHHH THE "BLUES" GREAT!

[@lsujester]

Yeah, that's Charlie Sexton. I have the SRV tribute CD 'Been a Long Time' that this song is recorded on, along with the whole Austin City Limits show on DVD. It's a great CD and concert if you can find copies.

[@buddyzroadie]

Hey thanks Truthislife! I got turned on to Jonny a little while after we lost Stevie.... To see him play with Double Trouble just kicks ass!!! Thanks again!

[@ljm792]

Gordie Johnson :)

[@LordKenebutch]

Yes he wrote this great song.

[@BiAjGi]

I can't believe that he is doing that bend at 3:10 . amazing energy . . .

[@Katy7540]

Jonny Lang is the best!

[@ashtalk8]

Hey johny you rock , one of the bests DT

[@phunkidruma]

@spudgun2006 u know stevie is looking down with his thumbs up....rip stevie is sooo missed but u see how the torch ALWAYS gets passed!!!! Brilliant musicianship..........

[@СтарыйГрузин-л2л]

great!... fantastic!...

[@fendrbendr72]

You gotta hear "touch" by jonny lang. his best i think

[@blusismylife]

Jonny at his best momment!

[@lsujester]

Bought it off of eBay several years back from some guy who recorded the original broadcast. I've never seen any official video release for this particular show.

[@TorturedNacho]

double trouble being inductee to Rock and Roll hall of fame brought me here . Love this sound.

[@moldowan]

an interesting story behind the studio recording of this song: i read this in an interview circa time of release. the intro ryhthm guitar part was too hard for lang to get ( believe it or not) and they scratched him from doing it on the album and got either charlie or denny ( not sure which) to record it. as you see live the story is the same. hard to believe lang had such a hard time with the timming of this song huh? but it's true!

[@brentjohnson5171]

I know this is resurrecting an old comment, but the guy that wrote the song is Gordie Johnson, he's the one in the red shirt playing the white SG. He had a band with Chris Layton for awhile called Grady. Check out the original version of this sometime by Gordy's band Big Sugar. He's an unbelievable player, and while I prefer Johnny's vocal, the original of this is great. I always figured that was Gordie doing the rhythm on the record. Certainly could have been Charlie or Denny though!

[@Dogheadj]

Neither Buffet or Reznor are in this video. As noted in another post, Gordie Johnson is playing the SG. "Yellow Strat" is a guy named Denny Freeman who was a contemporary and friendly rival of SRV during his Austin days.

[@hagmagedon]

Its Also Gordie Johnson from Big Sugar. He is a monstrous player with the of the best tones ever. A good Toronto boy too! He lives in Austin now. He wrote this song for the album which was NOT a SRV tribute album it was a Double Trouble album co written with many different artists. Including KWS, Susan Tedeschi, Bramhall, Sexton, and Malford Milligan who currently fronts Storyville with them. His is the best track on the album.

[@kurtdahle]

Hank Hawthorne Toronto? he grew up in medicine hat and was born in St boniface area in Winnipeg

[@Arkanalegion000]

Thank you for posting this ,I have been looking for the concert since it was on Tv

[@gregory49]

pretty sure that is Grady( Gordie Johnson) With the red shirt playing the SG no?

[@steve89z]

omg this is killer

[@kurtdahle]

ya rock! gordie from winnipeg

[@speclk19]

momagaler222, This video is old, before he was married and before he kicked drugs and started playing more gospel/R&B influenced blues.

[@millwoodss]

@Chakirisan the guy on the sg is the guy who wrote the song...

[@moutsee]

fantastic, great

[@dogfaceman1]

I will always miss SRV.

[@The_Narrow_Path]

GREAT TUNE!! =)

[@tohellwithpurplepeop]

@therealcraigbaxter gordie JOHNSON - represent . the man does the BEST version of this song - hands down - he was NICE to let young lang have centre stage :)

[@srvsgal]

awesome

[@rohofmann]

This song is f***ing great! Thanks for uploading ;)

[@mikemayco7888]

Somebody turn that tele up

[@SixstringMatt]

@Chakirisan The guy on the SG is definetly Gordie Johnson of Big Sugar / Respectables fame. Not trying to come off snobby, and I apolagise if I have, just wanted to answer your query.

[@wgbell11]

Un Fucking believable!!!!!

[@DONDIVA1969]

Gordie is a BEAST

[@chazz7667]

Do you really have no idea who those people are. Wow!! Ok vocalist Johnny Lang, Rhythm guitars-Trent Reznor and Jimmy Buffet. The band Double Trouble as in Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble.

[@giangp]

0:41 AWESOME GUITAR TONE! 6 stars!

[@stevieray09]

wat movie, i always wondered if theyed make a movie about stevie

[@kurtdahle]

ya f'n rights gordie johnson is the man

[@lilrolterBigBluesMama]

Vraiment excellent !!!!! BigMama §:-)

[@Jarkinson]

Do you know who is that guitar player standing on the left? You can see him at 0:42. He does really great job!:)

[@klank67]

@iamthedude4321 Gordie is a Canadian legend and he knows 'em all ;)

[@satexguy1]

@ernieluvsdarian - I don't think Johnny "studied" under SRV - he was only 9 when SRV died. Charlie and Will Sexton did play a lot of gigs with the Vaughns and other bands in Austin in the 80s when they were kids, though.

[@lsujester]

Was it the song itself, or just trying to play it while he sang it? Either way, interesting tidbit.

[@grahmnash1]

With Jimmy Buffet and Trent Reznor on backing rhythm guitars, how could you go wrong?

[@Skavar4000]

That is Gordie Johnson in red playing slide on the SG Don't know where you see Jimmy Buffet...

[@buddyzroadie]

Did anyone ever find the DVD?

[@MCbiscuts]

@drummerboy5142 what album would that be?

[@globey]

No... that was Gordie Johnson on the SG doing that with the slide

[@gregory49]

Love whipper, you in austin?

[@MrRamjam14]

@Boldlynuts9 gordie (capo boy to you() wrote the song!

[@joskam092]

Wow

[@ekipito]

are they the same that played with SRV???

[@DONDIVA1969]

Anybody know if this is on any of his albums?

[@BilnBax]

Mike Myers is also doin' a bio pic about Keith Moon

[@lsujester]

I just got it uploaded for you.

[@longhorn2615]

Charlie Sexton!

[@bluelibra65]

who is the dude on the cream colored strat?

[@BilnBax]

rumor has it that he will play SRV in the movie

[@ryanycy]

is that charlie sexton playing at the start?

[@Skavar4000]

I don't think that is Jimmy Buffet.... at 2:12 he calls him Billy as "yellow Strat" starts a solo.

[@chenjunhao]

would love to see him jam with john mayer

[@seethrusin]

yea. Chris Layton(drummer) Tommy Shannon(bass) = Double Trouble

[@suge52]

@pf71019 He doesn't have to be drugged up to play like this. I've seen him since he turned his life around, and Lie to Me rocks just as much now as it did then.

[@Smudgefizz]

Actually Johnny Lang was more of an Albert Collins disciple.

[@Dvdjnknsn]

Don't forget that's Charlie Sexton there too!

[@AlkoHol62]

Yea, Stevie Ray Vaughn; why did i discover him AFTER he passed...

[@foxyroxstar]

Save Humanity LassieSongsUSA!

[@lsujester]

Now that I think of it, he wouldn't actually HAVE to do both at once recording it. You know, I've seen him live a couple times... he's never come off a great rhythm guitarist anyway. His leads are good, but the heavy rhythm stuff was usually done by the second guitar.

[@kurtdahle]

ya cause he wrote it

[@lfoldi]

he did drugs but its not like he was a "druggie" he just realized he was going down the wrong path...he was never "messed up"....he looks stoned sometimes when he does his solos....but thats just him...hes always played like that

[@moldowan]

i can't remember, i know the producer was like " scratch lang playing on the record, we'll just record the vocals"

[@jmb92555]

But Kenny is a better guitar player??? That's got to give every guitar player worth listening to a good chuckle. I don't normally respond to this guy is better than that guy comments but on this particular day there were at least three guitarists sharing that stage who are better than KWS in terms of technique, creativity, and feel. That is all I got to say about that ;)

[@grahmnash1]

Yellow Strat.
