Platinum Ganster Rapper First Time REACTION to Stevie Ray Vaughan - Voodoo child

Stevie Ray Texas Flood Live at El Mocambo. Insane

[@robinbobbin75155]

One of the greatest guitar performances ever!

[@danw2276]

must watch KK

[@jameslay344]

Most definitely Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo!! ✌️❤️🎸. Stevie was a channel that music just flowed through.

[@jojones1082]

Yes, Steve passed on August 27, 1990 in a helicopter crash. That guitar he's playing was a 2nd hand guitar he picked up at a pawns shop. He named it Lenny after his wife (Lenora) to whom he was married at the time. The story goes that the pawn shop was asking $300 for it, but Stevie didn't have enough money to buy it, so his wife and friends all chipped in to buy it for him and gave it to him as a birthday present. He said he like the way it felt in his hands and the way it sounded (it's a 1965 Stratocaster), and it used to belong to another musician (Christopher Cross). He was and still the all-time guitar GOAT, in my opinion.

[@mattsmalley3.14]

His "Lenny" guitar is actually a different Strat (you can see him play it on live performances of the song Lenny). The one he's playing here is his "number one" Strat.

[@conniehorton1981]

@@mattsmalley3.14yes you’re right.

[@bswizzle5227]

Saw the show the night he died. We watched the helicopter fly over the parking lot, and then when we heard the news on the radio on the ride home, we all thought it was a joke. Unfortunately it was not.

[@BlackSmokeDMax]

@@bswizzle5227 agreed, same story, heard that news when we got back to Madison that night. Kinda glad we didn't hear it while driving.

[@bswizzle5227]

@@BlackSmokeDMax no one believed it until we got home and saw the news on MTV. We were all shocked to our cores.

[@RobFritz-n6t]

Texas flood live will make you cry, true music, he puts his heart and soul into it.

[@RonnyWestberry]

Stevie Ray Texas Flood Live at El Mocambo is my favorite. he was known to improvise his solos like many guitarists do. this time he nailed, his intro on the Texas flood was amazing and truly separates him from all the others.

[@timbeatty8411]

I've been playing guitar for 40 years and I still say this is the most talented guitar player ever.

[@balzacfaraday]

Nobody ever mentions the great work done here by Double Trouble, the rhythm section. Aptly enough, Hendrix also had an excellent and very underrated rhythm section in Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding.

[@edwardmarchildon2343]

we are all just one breath away from not getting out or here alive. the gods are enjoying SRV

[@JasonSmith-ot5pq]

Great reaction to the greatest guitar player ever in my opinion RIP SRV 🙏💛

[@johnnyb6067]

It hits you in the feels because it’s a human at the top of his game pouring his soul out for us through his instrument. There’s no computers making everything perfect, prerecorded beats on a loop, or auto tune. It’s real

[@spineynorman7378]

First off, shout out to Black Pegasus for introducing me to you. Your reaction channel has quickly become one of my favorites, just like SRV is one of my favorite guitarist. You mentioned the Strat he is seen playing on most of his videos. He purchased this axe from Charlie's Guitars in Dallas so I have been told. He grew up in the Oakcliff section of Dallas that was close to where my grandparents lived. He and I were close to the same age and I would go see him play at the clubs around Dallas with his brother Jimmy Vaughn. Thank you for this reaction and I'd love to see you react to "Cold Shot". PS: I enjoy watching your reactions with the Mrs. Peace

[@imweakfordeaky]

Stevie, *as always*, was great in this… but let’s give props to Tommy Shannon on bass and Chris Layton on drums - they are *killing it* back there. Since Stevie’s playing has lots of improvisational parts (and is different at every performance!), Tommy and Chris had to bring their A-game on focus, concentration, and musicianship EVERY SINGLE TIME . And they did…every single time. They are top-notch on their instruments too.

[@lookmanohands1966]

SRV is missed for his outstanding playing and his humanity. He was a special human cut off too soon. He single handedly brought the blues back from dead in the eighties and always brought a message of hope to anyone struggling at all his shows. The night he died he was a guest performer with famous guitarists and he mopped the floor with them all according to them.

[@JoeSchwartz-yx3jg]

In Texas Flood SRV plays his guitar behind his back.

[@tp8030]

He was just hitting his prime at the time of his passing. GOAT!!!

[@DianaMiceli-Billingsley-kj4ln]

SRV was and still is the GOAT! Hendrix comes after SRV and everyone falls under these two GOATS. They’re cemented.

[@tinabailey8859]

Tin Pan Alley with Johnny Copeland and Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo are a couple SRV performances you definitely should check out.

[@michaelculpepper6699]

His favorite guitar and great musicians put in untold hours of practice to get to that level of mastery. That's why his guitar looks that way.

[@diveplane05]

Let's not sleep on The Bassist. He's holding down the rhythm and melody at the same time when Stevie goes off on his leads and solos!💯✔️🤙🤙✌️

[@pennyhill7680]

You have to check out, Texas Flood live from El Mocambo, an absolute must😂

[@ei_thedrummer]

Stevie is the goat 🐐🎸

[@m1k3g3tz]

the brighter the candle burns, the sooner it runs out ...

[@anthonysolomon709]

The foot pedal was given to him by Jimi Hendrix’s family because SRV admired him so much. Great tribute to Jimi by SRV.

[@randyhall5165]

He had just got his life straight. We missed so much.

[@maryshaw5578]

Life Without You by Stevvie Ray Vaughn Live. Great song!!!

[@boxerpaws55]

SRV had much respect for my fave Hendrix. He did this great cover of Voodo Child. Texas Flood at El Macombo is right up there. nobody can touch that one. SRV and Johnny Copeland did a great live too. cover all his tunes. blows ya away. Helicopter Crash took his life. People switched seats on another helicopter. that change took his life but the pilot should have known better to fly in the conditions that night.

[@Ncxgroup]

I met Stevie for the first time in Austin, TX, in the late 70s when I was at the University of Texas. He was a massive talent then. Stevie was the first act at the time to be booked 7 nights a week in Austin. Stevie was playing that guitar then. He had that thing since he was a kid. That distress on the guitar is him wearing it out. He was still playing it when he died. I saw him in LA at the Greek Theater about 2 weeks before Stevie passed. You need to check out Stevie playing "Texas Flood" at El Mocambo kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXSYeWyGaatoi80 He is the greatest guitar player of all time. I've seen most of them live, Eddie, Billy Gibbons, Angus, Jimmy Page, BB King, and more. Stevie is the best.

[@l.l4456]

You can find a video here on you tube of Ray Henning who owned the music store where Stevie acquired this Fender Strat guitar. In the video Ray tells the story from start to finish how Stevie just fell in love with this beat up, piece of junk guitar (Ray's description) the moment he picked it up. Stevie named this guitar #1 or sometimes referred to it as first wife. His brother, Jimmy Vaughan now owns iconic guitar & does loan it out to museums from time to time. I saw it in the Rock & Roll HOF a few years ago. Jimmy Vaughan is a great player in his own right. Stevies guitar tech Rene Martinez can also be found on you tube explaining the way Stevie repaired his shredded fingers because he used custom strings ranging from 13 guage on the heaviest. He would rip the calluses off on the super heavy strings, often described as playing on telephone wires.

[@marklynn3994]

Love your reactions and happy to see your channel growing and the great collabs you do with BP. Fun. You gotta check "Texas Flood" live at the Mocambo. It will melt your brain.

[@mariaportengen2959]

G.O.A.T no question about it

[@redbeard6669]

You probably want to cry because it's one dead legend playing another dead legends song. Jimmy and Stevie were some of the most influential guitarists for their genre.

[@ChrisRoberts-jt4iy]

It’s a 1959 Fender Stratocaster. Listen to “Leave My Girl Alone “ and “Tightrope “ from that same show. AMAZING!

[@TerryL421]

SRV is so incredible! I think you should listen to him play with Canadian Jeff Healey who is a blues, rock, & jazz guitarist, singer, songwriter. Jeff lost his sight at the age of one from retinoblastoma and learned to play the guitar at three in his own style. Search Stevie Ray Vaughn & Jeff Healey - Look at Little Sister and pick the one from Jeff's channel. They are fire together! For Jeff Healey on his own try "See the Light", "Angel Eyes", and "When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky" from the movie Roadhouse (starring Patrick Swayze and Sam Elliott) he played in. Unfortunately we lost Jeff too soon as well from cancer at the age of 41 in 2008.

[@michaellockhart554]

3 greatest guitar players of all time, any genre, and in any order, Stevie Ray, Jimi, and Terry Kath. Mic drop, period

That performance was on a hill top in Austin, Texas. The Capital Building can be seen in the background.

He is/was one of the top 10 greatest guitar players ever. RIP Stevie! He died in a helicopter crash in August of 1990.

You should also check out Texas flood and life without you

[@davidlagassee8236]

his sound check is better than most concerts.

[@proudarmymom8657]

SRV is THE 🎸 🐐

[@skmarrama]

When SRV plays, the song always ends too soon, I don't care if the song was 5 minutes or 25 minutes long. That is a Whammy bar on his guitar. I might've spelled that wrong. The man was a rare talent and I enjoy every time he plays. He studied and collaborated with the great Albert King. I believe he revered these great artists and soaked in everything he could when they were together. SRV did pass away in a helicopter accident. He was coming back from a tribute with other great artists. So sad! I think of Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and other artists who died young and think of the music that was never made and it breaks my heart! Many should still be alive and with us to this day.

[@Rattled76]

You gotta watch him play live Texas flood.

[@joyous-b8j]

That's got to be the Best SICK ASS KICK ASS VERSION of that song STEVIE does because He plays it so Smooth,Clean,Pure and Straightforward!! There other versions He does of that song which are AWESOME too!! 🐐🎸🔥❤️😢RIP STEVIE!!!

[@robinbobbin75155]

He was blessed by Jimi Hendrix' family with his waa waa accessory. That's an official musical term. 😂

[@DSmith264]

Stevie played numerous guitars, but referred to this one as his #1. Also has called it his "first wife. She hasn't left me yet She doesn't scream AT me...she screams FOR me!"

[@Jeffbambam]

The absolute GOAT ! One of the greatest hidden gems of all times! SRV understood soul and feeling of sound and to take you on that emotional journey with out words and he made you feel what he was projecting through his guitar!!! ❤ watch (Life without you ) capital theater nj 1985 . He swaps guitars with a broken sting in the first minute of the song but you might miss it ! Also breaks a tooth !

[@mikemclaughlin3306]

That, sir, is a fender stratocaster..... greatest guitar ever made. And yes.... SRV is the greatest guitarist

That guitar is #1 and was his primary guitar for pretty much his entire career. It is a Fender Stratocaster.

The guitar name is Number One in case that wasn’t clear.

[@uncledavesbrigade7106]

Stevie died in a helicopter crash just after a concert with Eric Clapton, Roger Cray, Muddy Watters and a few others. Eric Clapton said they were in awe of his performance and said he was the best on the planet! Next song, live version of Floodin' Down in Texas

[@redddo1]

For the greats, the music lives on......and on

[@gabreel8112]

SRV was a chopper just like you and Tech. The word chopper is an old blues saying. It's when a guitarist battled another guitarist. They called it chopping heads.

[@squibbles666]

he was a premier blues singer and musician, Look into his cover of Stevie Wonder's "Superstition", or the video for Crossfire.

[@danw2276]

KK, I tear up a bit watching him. Saw him 3 months before his untimely death and he was incredible and being a guitar guy I left there awe struck. I've seen tons of greats, BB Clapton Robertson Winter and the list goes on but nobody played like SRV. Most play the guitar but Stevie dominated it slapping it around a bit and showing who's running the show. BB though we was black, and when he finally saw him on stage playing he was with Eric Clapton. BB said he's the darkest white man he ever heard, and Eric said after 5 mins if he hears any more he'll quit playing.......RIP SRV😢

[@andy60234]

t’s apples and oranges dude. They all bring stuff to the table that make them goat status. I saw a picture of Eddy the other day with a caption “ just push play, I’ll always be with you.”

[@laritownsend2527]

Fender Stratocaster was used by Stevie Ray Vaughan for much of his career. Dubbed "Number One" and "First Wife" by Stevie, the guitar was used on all of Double Trouble's studio albums. According to Stevie’s guitar technician, René Martinez he most often played GHS Nickel Rockers (and sometimes Boomers) in the following gauges: .013 - .015 - .019p - .028 - .038 - .058

[@2legit2quitNow]

This was also Hulk Hogans entrance song on WCW/WWE. But yeah that guitar riff is sick, he had those mad skillz for sure!

[@RockinMamaT]

I saw him live in Toronto open up for Robert Plant in 88 and he literally seduced me with his guitar and then he sang...smooth as butter. Texas Flood live from El Mocambo is a must my friend. He went to Jimi's parents and asked permission to do Jimi's song and hos parents gave him their blessing and Jimi's foot pedal which is so cool. Please check out April Wine...Roller. Great reaction and Peace out 🙏 ☮️ ✌️

[@ScreaminNighthog]

Kriss, shout out to Black Pegasus for leading me to your site. I was familiar with your work year's ago as a premier producer, as that wall behind you testifies. VooDoo Chile (a slight reprise) is what you are listening to. If you want the full story behind this song, you will have to go to Jimi Hendrix album Electric Lady Land and listen to the full version of VooDoo Chile not the reprise. I and many other musician's I know, believe this song to be cursed, even before SRV recorded it. Take a look of the list of performer's who actually recorded this song only to pass soon after. It's very strange. BTW if you do check out that album, listen to "(1984 A merman I should turn to be) the backwards guitar work will melt your brain.

[@tombanaski3251]

If you watch the videos, SRV had many guitars, butthis was his main one. As someone else said, it is a Fender Stratocaster. But it's appearance shows how much time he put into his craft, from his time as a kid to the end of his life. SRV is the TRUTH.. As for his passing, Stevie died in a helicopter crash leaving the Alpine Music Theater in Wisconsin. It was foggy and the pilot ran into one of the ski hills (no mountains in Wisconsin to speak of). The same concert had his brother Jimmie and Eric Clapton, both of whom took a different helicopter and made it fine. Stevie's pilot was not rrated to fly in the fog that was there that night.

[@bella-xp7qd]

[@michaellockhart554]

You really need to see Stevie and his brother Jimmy play the same guitar...at the same time

[@DannyBedo]

The way a human plays their guitar is a direct reflection of the way their brain chemistry works. Jimmy was pure psychedelic, Stevie was Texas blues, Eddie Van Halen was cocaine, speed and whiskey from LA. If you need any more proof just watch how SRV plays “Marry had a little lamb”.

[@philsdon8932]

Willie Nelson has had his guitar "Trigger" for 55 years. The body is worn through.

[@ryanzeigler9763]

most ppl have Jimi #1 but SRV is on Mt. Rushmore with Jimi, EVH and #4 is whoever your fav is =) That guitar is famous and is referred to as simply "#1". he had a couple new guitars that he played on certain songs (or when he broke a string). Check out Willie Nelson's "Trigger" or Keith Richards' "Micawber". Once you find a good one, you stick with it. Jimmy Page's "Dragon" telecaster is what he used on most albums but ppl associate him with a Les Paul because that's what he played on stage to cut noise. Mike McCready from Pearl Jam is one of the few guys that can do the Jimi stuff justice anymore. You should check out their track "Yellow Ledbetter" Live from Honolulu where he does an amazing cover of Jimi's "Little Wing"

[@Mikeluvdrums]

Guitar is a Fender Stratocaster, (not sure of the year) When you find the right axe you hold on to that thing and take out an insurance policy . Guitar makers can build 50 guitars in a batch ... but there is always one in the batch that stands out,, and that is the one !

[@mamaalaska]

SRV played his Stratocaster guitar so much that it left Marks from his hands on his guitar. That’s why it looks beat up. He also played with the heaviest strings made for guitars and even then he would break them. He and B.B. King were tight. He died in a helicopter accident just after concert with Eric Clapton and some other greats.

SVR at one time was a heavy drinker and also use drugs. He cleaned himself up in the mid 80's but I guess it did age him as you noticed. As for the helicopter crash. It happened in southern Wisconsin on a foggy night right after an outdoor concert he played at. The concert also featured a number of other great guitarists. I have a friend who attended that concert, and he said it was epic! Very sad.
