SRV ~ 🎸🐐 THE goat of all goats The more you watch Stevie with other gun slingers, youll notice that he would always let them show their stuff while he would lay back. He never wanted to disrespect anyone and that is just another reason why Stevie's the goat. He was the total package...mad guitar skills, great vocals, showmanship, stage presence, and humility.

Our Stevie! Absolutely one of a kind. Where are people like this anymore dear Lord? And why couldn't You let us have him longer? You just don't see performances equal to this in the past few decades. Sadly, it seems that humanity has taken a back seat to fame and fortune. Not saying there aren't good people in this world, but the music industry is turning out anybody these days. ☮️. to all. RIP Stevie and Jeff. Still Jamming.

Jeff Healey was incredibly talented. Most people don't know that he was also an accomplished Clarinet and Trombone player. In addition to rock music, he also loved Big Band and Swing music and also made a few albums of this type of music. He had a collection of nearly 100,000 78 RPM records by the great band leaders and musicians (Glenn Miller, Benney Goodman, Duke Ellington, and so many more). His death was a tragic loss to the world.

@@michaelasay8587 Jeff was only 41 when he died in 2008 from sarcoma. But I sense that this is not what your comment alluded to. Did you mean that Jeff was too young to be familiar with the Big Band era of music? If so, what does age have to do with the music a person likes? Right now, today, there are a lot of people in their 20's who like The Beatles. The Beatles broke up 52 years ago. Lots of people still listen to Big Bands Swing music.
