Stevie Ray Vaughan - Interview Part 1 - 1/1/1985 - Lone Star Cafe (Official)

[@levinmoser4001]

Such a sweet man. On stage, he looks so badass that you think he's probably so mean, nobody can talk to him. But, his speaking voice is so humble and sweet. His smile is precious. This man is so missed. There hasn't been a great, mean, hard, soft white blues guitar player since he died.

[@cristinachaliandroi1369]

He didn't

[@NothingMaster]

Aside from being an absolute guitar genius, and a decent human being, he was almost singlehandedly responsible for the revival of the blues and reintroducing it to the younger audiences/generations. He was blues when blues wasn’t all that cool no more. In fact, he was nothing short of the modern savior of the blues [some might even call it rock blues; I call it SRV’s Blues].

There was a Fender Stratocaster he saw in a pawn shop he really wanted but he didn't have the money so his wife Lenny went to several of her friends and got $10 to $30 from each of them and bought the guitar for him, when she gave it too him he named it Lenny after her and sat at the foot of her bed that night and wrote the song Lenny for her. It really is a beautiful song.

Stevie, such a kind, gentle, sweet guy...The saddest day ever, hearing on the radio, riding round Dallas, my home town, about such a tragic gut-wrenching, unbelievable, news flash about his death via chopper running smack into a mountainside in the cold, dense fog... just upon leaving a concert. Damn. How sad cannot be put into words... The loss was so palpable. Every windshield in the State of Texas on Every road, read RiP Stevie, Love, love, miss you, so much love the ppl showed. Complete total disbelief. Everyone came unhinged. Then his packed funeral at I-35 at the cemetery, where you'll always find guitar pics on his grave.. Total respect by all... His dad buried by him in the family plot.... Its been at least 10 yrs since i was there, then left Texas... STEVIE LOVED AUSTIN... AND BACK THEN IT WAS A SMALLER CAPITAL TOWN, NOT TOO BIG, LOTS OF MUSIC, Art, DRUNK SCENES, 6TH STREET BARS, EAST SIDE... STEVIE COULD BE AT PEACE OUT & ABOUT... BE HIMSELF. ★ BUT TODAY, AUSTIN IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE 70s, 80s, 90s... Extremely left wing politically in a conservative Republican Red State. He wouldn't recognize it today. Totally quatripled in size, population, traffic, a lot of big money, rich, way more greedy of a takeover. Oh its beautiful, yes. Its in Hill Country. Lakes, expensive huge homes, high taxes, its grown immensely since SRV passed. He'd really be blown away, maybe in a good way. NOT SURE... Mayne not. He certainly loved it when he moved there in 72... But it was smaller, little more private, cool, & he felt peace & serenity... He wad a shy, private cat.😂 Especially with his new wife & home at the lake... He was a man in a happy time & place. 🍀 It ended way too soon... ★ He was mesmerizing on stage! The one & only SRV, true Texan who loved his craft..... SRV & Double Trouble was (possibly most unlikely) to succeed into the higher realms of greatness, and they surely tore it up & lit a fire under that misconception, and turned this God willed, determined, man full of NO-STOPPING ENERGY, AND TO SEE HIM ON AUSTIN CITY LIMITS WAS MELLOW & MIND BLOWING! HE WAS THE GREATEST, IMO. I never tripped while watching him live, but I might have enjoyed it.... You couldn't take your eyes off him... Men & Women. He was a star burning ever so brightly! WITH INFLUENCE FROM Jimi, Clapton, Muddy, Buddy Guy, & so much more, including his brother Jimmy & the Fabulous Texas Thunderbirds.... He soaked it all up as a youngster with the odds against him, and he proved to be the genius he didn't realize he was. He was MUSICAL, A GUITAR WILDMAN, & thank God he stayed out of political circles & controvery. He was smart like that. Like Elvis too... Carefully spoken. Yeah, I bet Stevie would be a bit heartbroken over the later disposition Austin became extremely left winged, in a Solid Red, Conservative, Bible Belt state I cant help what he'd feel about Austin now, but I have a feeling he'd be doing what he always did: played badass guitar, stayed in his beloved home on the lake with loved ones. He loved his surroundings, and kept his political opinions to himself, and grew larger than life cause he was solid in his craft. I think he was an angel sent from heaven to spread love, peace, intelligent talks, & hopefully been in true love/happiness/content & maybe had a few Stevie Jrs, or otherwise. The sky was his limit. He was almost too good, too kind, too loving, too unselfish, too good for this world, that's ever growing out of control. Just like Jimi Hendrix. Ahead of your time baby!! Im glad I seen him, met him, loved his persona, smile, laugh, and Felt such awe for him while it lasted....💞💔💕💗💛💚🤍💙💜💖 RiP with your soul hanging out with Jesus. I know you were saved & took Jesus as your saviour!! God knows what's going down. Stevie was in the right place at the right time, even on his last night, cause he's a son of the Most High God. Amen. Love always, you Oak Cliff Miracle. Cant wait to see you in the spirit world. What a pleasant sight. RiP my buddy Stevie... 🌷🌳🌹🌿

[@TheFoolintherainn]

Don't bother with his studio albums, if you want his real flavors stick to live and bootleg stuff. That's what really stunk when we lost him.. he used to play in hole-in-the - wall-bars, unannounced, or barely announced that's how I was introduced to him. And when he passed away, we were stuck with studio albums. It was tough to get live bootleg stuff back then - you had to get it out of Mexico or Europe. Having the internet let's us go back and see some of the concerts we heard on albums, that would not necessarily be heard in Austin the collaborations he did with Buddy Guy and dozens of top musicians... That's where he's come back for his older fans - we get his live stuff on KZbin. His concerts far beyond any studio album. One night you'd hear a 10 minute version of Mary had a little lamb, or Superstition, the next time you'd see him play? Theyd jam on 1 of those songs for 45 minutes... Or go back and forth between those two songs We didn't "listen" to his live concerts - it went through us. Totally bypassed the ears, and went straight to your soul.

I’m sorry but Stevie Ray is just THE MAN! Pure and simply the man

[@kathrynsheartland]

Damn I miss him! He was one of the kindest people I knew.

[@judydonegan7280]

he was so beautiful

[@Julie-jq1sy]

Aaaww, very sweet. I really liked his attitude. He seemed very grateful also. RIP SRV.

[@youreallygotmenow4855]

Google User Grateful and graceful in manners.

[@judydonegan7280]

@Frank Lopez Bruce Willis reminded me of Mickey Rourke when they were both young, too

[@deborahc.crawford256]

More than you know.

[@sophiawolthof1238]

He was beautiful

[@REACHMUSIC1]

If SRV could see the music business now he wouldn't be happy at all. I miss him and I can only imagine what he would have become. #srv is the best

[@bensblues]

the one benefit of him dying young... at least he didnt have to hear the trash now. His ears were to precious to let that damage them

[@stevevai8759]

This interview gives you some insight on Stevie, what kind of person he is, how close he was with his brother and how big Texas really is.

[@chrisbauman2562]

Stevie I wish you could see me rip the blues in a small town of Concord new Hampshire. You'd be proud to see blues in such a small place

[@woodsbikes6130]

We miss you Stevie. You're one of the best. RIP and thank you for your music. 🙂

[@MEKKRUB]

Love and miss you forever. SRV 💙

[@strangefruit8776]

Man after hearing that snake story it makes me want to be his friend even more. It’s not very often you get to hear from a guy with such talent but can still shoot the shit like a normal man. Kind of makes you wonder about the rest of us when only the good die young.

[@clintweaner]

Yea the snake story was the best!

“If I stop learning I’ll quit.” - SRV ❤️‍🔥

[@tmaddrummer]

We open all night and most the day....... count me in! Missing Stevie.........

[@shaykay6215]

His hands look massive in this interview; truly 🌟God-given talent this man was given and thankfully shared with those of us with ears to hear 💫

[@johndoe-pm1ql]

He was the Chosen One, the One who will deliver the message. A message of hope for those who choose to hear it and a warning for those who do not." Stevie ray ahead of his time...

[@jiveassturkey8849]

Isn’t that lyrics from a Tool song?

[@jamestburgess6372]

He was the second coming

[@tfyqa27]

And I didn't graduate from fucking high school...

[@maureendrozda9960]

Stevie Was SO HAPPY To Be Here!!! He Still Is In Some Ways...Soul💞Soul, Stevie💗😘

[@clancypool3160]

What a true gentleman and professional that has a God given talent he made my heart smile

[@KellyCorpening]

I remember that day ,it was devastating

[@thomassmith2056]

Such a humble man. Saw him in 84 in Jax FL. Was epic!!!

[@maureendrozda9033]

Stevie Ray & DT DID NOT Disappoint!!! Wherever They Played!

[@SonsOfThunder229]

I just cant believe he is 5'5". His hands are huge!

[@RoadWarrior-lo9vt]

I love Stevie Ray man. He was one of the coolest cats in music history. I'm impressed with this interviewer. She asks damn good questions. I think she didn't do to bad. God Love Tejas! 🤘😝

[@maureendrozda9033]

It's Horrifying To See Just How Addicted To & Dependant On Drinking (Likely Laced w/Cocaine😭) Stevie Was @ This Point In '85....Before He Finally - Thank God - Hit Bottom & SURVIVED!... In September Of '86 - Then Got Into Detox & A Good Rehab Program & Got Completely SOBER - & Sober He Remained Till He Left Us In Late August Of 1990🙏 What A Blessing!! Stevie's Recovery From That Level Of Substance Abuse Wasn't Likely...But God Had His Back & Stevie Was Willing, Ready & Worked HARD For It! His Sobriety Meant Everything To Him, As He Shared w/His Audience In Every Live Performance After Returning To The Road To Tour.... I Was Already In AA/12-Step Recovery When I Heard Stevie Tell This Story - The Last Time (Of Many) That I Saw Him Live - Just A Few Weeks Before That Horrible Crash & We Lost Him....But I Know It Meant Everything To Stevie To Share HIS Way-To-Close-To-Death Story With Everybody He Could & Try To Warn Them Not To Do Drugs...Because The Cost Was Too High & The Losses Too Great, & Too Permanent....This Was A Very GOOD & Caring Man - Aside Of The Incredible Talent & Personality He Was Blessed With - He TRUELY Was Awesome With People & Sincerely CARED About Them...Especially His Fans - He Didn't Want To See People Suffer Or Die Needlessly! I Sure Never Expected THAT Out Of An International Rock/Blues Superstar In The 1980's....BRAVO AGAIN, STEVIE!! I'M STILL PASSING ON YOUR STORY, STRENGTH & HOPE!!🙏 I HOPE FOLKS WILL KEEP LISTENING! GOD BLESS, LOVE YOU!❤SOUL💞SOUL!

[@michael52250]

And here I thought it was my skill level givin' me so much grief with Stevie's songs... and all this time it was my hands (half his size)... OMG, the hands! Great interview... simply the best, and was only getting better before he died!

[@nicktucker900]

How amazing is it when they break from the (pretty mundane) interview for a few minutes (around 10:50) and tells the story about shooting the snake.....you just see the normal guy in conversation.....soo cool.

[@LisaHam-d5i]

He was So Great Back Then. Its so unforgettable . 😢😢😢

[@jonathanwatson1243]

The best guitar player to ever strap on a guitar

[@pouyan_m]

Maybe after lil wayne

[@jillsmcfarland2001]

From the instant I saw him ,he gave off warm good vibes.

[@robinsl27]

I loved him when I was 15 and I love him when I am 32. R.I.P SRV

[@sophiawolthof1238]

💗💗💗

[@RGVNC]

12:05 thru 15:40 is Gold

[@shariprice9881]

Stevie’s a great musician! I’ve enjoyed his music so much, over the years! 😉

[@firdausHITMAN]

Never seen this interview before. Thanks for the upload.

[@ronniegriffin6728]

Amen!

[@022171]

10:04 "Let's talk about your brother for a while." Stevie's face lights up. "Yeah!" Stevie's favorite guitarist of all time? His big brother.
