I named my son Stevie Ray. He was born 6 months before we lost SRV in 1990. Thank you for this post. Stevie touches your heart. I said Stevie didnt play guitar. He put his soul through an amplifier. Life without Stevie has been sad.

HIs stank face is the emotion he puts into his notes, basically that guitar is an extension of his soul. He was so in tuned with his guitars that he would Feel what he was playing rather than just playing it. It is why he never play a song the same twice.

Excellent comment!! Although he doesn’t start the song off with “Charley”. His first strat goes out of tune at 1:33 and he Opts for charley and continues to one the arguably best guitar performance ever. If this song doesn’t rise emotions you’re dead inside. Much respect ✊

I agree, Beautiful! He was a Showman... and he played behind his back, with his teeth, behind his head because nobody else could the way he could or if at all. His fingers were so strong and the calluses so deep, he would break his strings regularly, despite using the heaviest and thickest gauge of string. 🤣😂🤣😎😎😎 RIP SRV! ~ THANKS, JT, GREAT JOB!

The thing about SRV that sticks out the most is his improvised playing. It’s like there’s a constant flow of inspiration that just never stops. Like Clapton said, it’s not a matter of having practiced enough. He was just an open channel. Rest In Peace Stevie.

Hey there ITZJT TV! I want to Thank You for sharing this with all of us. As usual, You're awesome & so is your reaction. A little bit of info about what's going on here: You probably didn't even notice this but... SRV began playing this song with a completely different guitar and early on, into the song he changed over to the White Guitar, (Charlie), that we see him finish with. There's a good reason for this and that is because SRV and a custom guitar builder, named Charlie were really tight friends for many, many years. Charlie passed away and SRV wrote this song, "Life Without You," just for Charlie and the White Guitar is a Guitar that Charlie built, by hand, especially for SRV! So you can see how everything fits together here and you can feel SRV's emotions as he plays too. A touching performance indeed! Keep Smiling...
