You should watch that whole Montreaux concert then watch the 85 concert as well which will blow your socks off. I love the blues and SRV is #1. Stevie brought back a blues revival in the 80’s and all of the great artists BB King etc.. had a hey day, make sure to watch his performances with them. He was so respectful of them and they loved Stevie like a son. Look it all up!! When he died they were devastated!! The guitar is with his brother older Jimmy Vaughan and family. You’ve got to hear Dirty Pool and True love is gone. My faves where he hi lights Tremolo Strumming which most can’t do. :)

You have to do 2 songs Life without you live from Capital Theater and Tin Pam Alley live with Johnny Copeland. That is a remarkable live true blues jam. Double Trouble was his band. Chis Layton on drums, Tommy Shannon on base and later added the beast Reese Wynans on keys. It doesnt get better than these tunes

This is where he was discovered so to speak. David Bowie and Jackson Browne were there that night and David talked him into being on his next album and Jackson told him they could use his recording studio free to make an album. The rest is history.GOAT SRV RIP.

This was his first time playing the Montreux Jazz Festival. Listen to the whistles in the crowd. That is their equivalent of boos. The audience was not expecting SRV's blues. They did not like it. But, there was a guy standing just off stage that recognized talent. He talked SRV into being on his upcoming album. So, when you hear David Bowie's song 'Let's Dance', that is SRV playing the solo. The exposure that Bowie gave him is how SRV took off.

They were still a struggling band playing mostly clubs in Texas, getting around in a broke-down used milk truck. Stevie would never give up his blues to make it big and would have stayed playing clubs if it meant giving up the music he loved. We love ya, Stevie.❤

My mother's name was Joy and she was proud of it. She loved few things more than a man who could play a good blues guitar. The first time she saw Stevie Ray was in the early eighties and this was the first song he did. Needless to say, it was instant love for her. When I heard he had died, the first thing I had to do was call to make sure she was ok. I've said before, she died nine years later and I hope she got to meet him in the afterlife. RIP mom and SRV.

For another original and great vocals, check out "Aint Gone 'N' Give Up On Love" as performed at the Capitol Theatre 1985. That guitar is known as #1 and also his first wife. When asked why he calls it his first wife he said because she screams for me and not at me☺️✌️💯. Keep SRV coming‼️ I'll be here for it🔥🎸🎶

I saw SRV live numerous times even his last show in ATL in '89. You have to watch "Life without you" live at Capitol Theatre, Passaic, NJ and see if you can catch all of the challenges (seamless guitar change *don't blink, dropped pick, adjust the amps for guitar change, playing behind his back, the speech mid-song and a lost tooth). Another beauty is "Life by the drop", released posthumously and written by a childhood friend of his.

I had to laugh, I'm an old lady with no teeth and when Stevie comes on I rock out. I'm white, but my adopted mother was black and she was the one who introduced me to SRV. We listened to him play and she would say, "Stevie Ray Vaughn is god." So it tickled me, I had my eyes closed and I was moving and I looked up and you were also rocking out and I just love how music erases all the lines. Love your videos. BTW there is an old school blues man named BB King. His guitar was named Lucille, he never let anyone play that guitar. But after he played with SRV and they got to know each other a bit, he let Stevie play his guitar. Thats some trust right there.

The last I knew, Stevie's #1, which is now owned by his brother Jimmy Vaughan, was on loan for display in the Texas State Capitol Building in Austin, TX. It was valued at around $675,000 a few years ago...but its true value is really priceless to SRV fans. Stevie took awhile to gain confidence in his vocals but had a naturally great voice that has been described as "honey over gravel". Check out "Mary had a Little Lamb' , "Look at Little Sister" or "Leave my Little Girl Alone" live from Austin if you want more of his vocals.

I'm really in to current and recent rock but I can definitely appreciate this old school rock and blues from the likes of Stevie Ray and Jimi Hendrix and the Grateful Dead.

Thing about SRV is that he played every single song like it was the last time he would ever touch that guitar! First time he played the Montreaux Jazz Festival in Switzerland ( 1979/1980) the audience was expecting some dusty old black bluesman on a beat up acoustic guitar as this was their impression of what rootsy blues was all about,- so when this swaggering Texan cowboy started laying down the law with his rootsy americana stingin´ blues-rock they started buuhing him,- loudly and calling him a fake! After the performance Stevie was sitting in his wardrobe feeling gut shot and skinned to the bone exclaiming to his manager: "They buuhed me!!!!" His manager answered: Yes, - they did,- but wait till you see who´s outside your wardrobe door wanting to greet you. Waiting outside was David Bowie, wanting to thank him for the concert, tell him how great he was,- oh, yeah,- and hire him for his upcoming record! Six months later Bowie´s renowned and famous Lets Dance album hit the charts,- two weeks later Stevie Ray Vaughan was a world name,- everybody going: " Who´s that cat on Bowie´s new album playing the guitar?,- Never heard anything like it! " You want an impression watch the official video: David Bowie- Lets Dance

You HAVE to review "Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Cold Shot (Live from Austin, TX)". You absolutely will not regret it! AND, "Do You Feel Like We Do" from Peter Frampton's 1976 'Frampton Comes Alive' tour album. This **AUDIO ONLY** live concert recording is 14 minutes long, but just keeps getting better as you listen. If being introduced to this song for the first time, THIS is *THE BEST* version - please do NOT be tempted by the video versions! It has over fourteen million views so there must be many others that still appreciate it. You won't regret this one either. Think everyone should experience these as we did. Even if just once.

My very first introduction to SRV was "The Sky is Crying" and I have been hanging out in the rabbit hole every since. So much talent and fantastic music in such a short career. It boggles the mind to think about how good the music he didn't have a chance to make would have been. He was definitely top five guitarists ever and my feelings are that there is no way to rank one over the other because they all have different styles, but such tremendous talents. Double Trouble is amazing as well, because they keep that solid steady beat while Stevie just goes crazy on guitar and eventually jumps right back and the song continues. This is an amazing rabbit hole you're headed down.

Early in my sailing days (circa 1991-1992), I was a big SRV fan. We used to pull into Yokosuka, Japan and my watch partner and I would go to the FRA out on the Hounch. There was a beautiful bar tender there and we would ask her to play the SRV "laser disc" (yes that was popular then) - drink about 6 Asahi beers (650 ml each) and just chill. I recall when I was underway on a ship as an engineer later and at a particular breakfast the Captain came and told me about the helo crash and death of SRV. He knew I was a fan. I will always remember that moment for a few reasons - one is the passing of a great. The other is the personal aspect of that Captain who knew I would want to know and how he told me. Of all the Captains I sailed with - Captain Holt was the best of all for so many reasons. He was known as the Pink Panther (due to his tall lanky physique).
