Stevie Ray Vaughan Riviera Paradise 102789 Amarillo TX

[@IPPhonesRock]

This song is one of his best. The keyboards are a nice compliment, and the guitar work is still meat of the song. I think its great.

[@johnnieutah]

The most beautiful instrumental Stevie has ever done. I miss him and can't believe he has been gone 19 years already. I was lucky to see him in Syracuse, NY in August 1989.

[@peterbiltroy]

This may not get the airplay that it deserves, but it is one of THE best instrumentals ever recorded in my opi.ion!

[@Iw-Files-UFO]

This song always makes me feel melanholic..beautiful one....pure love !

[@mytracks]

I cannot tell you how many times I have listened to this one on "repeat"... just can't get enough of that place Stevie took us to................... I will always love SRV!

[@gaspo2180]

"and this goes out to anyone who's suffering in any way."

[@trentjanszmusic]

+gaspo2180 best quote!

[@AnthonyzWeiner]

Possibly the best instrumental ever. Pure magic!

[@cheryldunmore8204]

When I'm driving & hear this song, I want to pull over & just close my eyes and let Stevie Ray take me to another place!

[@rexoates4484]

Stevie was beyond talented. He was just given a gift of playing with inspiration.

[@gwenpookie]

this is a very romatic song, you can just mellow out and shake off your day kind of song. I miss his music. may he rest in peace and his music lives on

[@dacordova]

I only had to hear it once.......and was hooked. My favorite instrumental. This song doesn't get the air time it deserves. Much better than Joe Satrianis instrumental...and that gets overplayed.

[@jazzgirl232]

There are no words for this masterpiece of a performance -

[@SRV4evr]

For me, this song expresses what was in Stevie's soul - love, passion, tenderness. A beautiful song written and played by a beautiful person. Love you so much Stevie.

[@CooManTunes]

My absolute favorite SRV piece. Takes me back to my younger days.

[@lucasmedeiros5383]

I'm still young. 18 years old only. But this is by far, my favourite song. I hope I only live enough so I can hear it a million times. This means a lot to me. I could find the well end of my depression. As SRV said himself: "This goes to anyone who's suffering in any way".

[@MultiKZB]

This is nothing short of genius...many can play fast, but to play with such soul and technique is remarkable...RIP, Stevie Ray...

[@mistysnowe9]

One of my fave songs of all time, rock on Stevie!!!!

[@goltjen]

Absolutely a masterpiece. With elements of blues, jazz (in both the traditional and modern styles), rock, and classical this song hits every note, so to speak. Absolutely great.

[@mistysnowe9]

I think this is 1 of the finest songs SRV has done, and a favourite of mine as of all his music, god bless u SRV!!!!!

[@515tuber]

I had the pleasure of seeing SRV about a year or so before he passed, something I'll never forget...simply mindblowing! Funny though, he opened for Robert Plant. Now who in their right mind would want to follow SRV?? Plant's promoter didn't think that through too well!! RIP Stevie

[@mistysnowe9]

I saw him do this song live, I couldnt take my eyes off of him, wished he were still here today, miss u n luv ya SRV!

[@DLMaston1]

As I sit here listening to this, there are tears streaming down my cheeks. I still feel that tragic sense of loss from SRV's passing, and this song captures the emotions so beautifully. Yet, I also know these are tears of love and appreciation. I feel honored to have been alive to experience his artistry first hand. God bless you and RIP SRV.

[@IMmoreRANDOMthanYOU]

I just bought a 1990 camaro and my favorite part about it is that it has a cassette player. Nothin better then driving around listening to SRV. I wish I could have seen him live. I was born into a shitty music generation were everyone has to rely on computers to help them play. RIP Stevie

[@Jesse-B]

One of Stevie's greatest works.

[@turtlemouth]

I like how SRV could melt into the shadows and let his band mates shine. Musicians like that are few and far between.

[@jagstang2100]

I get chills listening to this...and when one stops another starts

[@heypaola16]

How can you not help falling back inlove with this man and his guitar...... OOOOoohhh man!!!

[@turbokevin]

This concert was on my 25th Birthday.. I'm so glad I got to see him as many times as I did (10) but I sure wish he was still here.. I'd love to see how he matured and evolved as a player.. He was simply brilliant and I can't help but wonder how much more so he would be now~ RIP SRV

[@llano52]

My memory of another show, not this one. December 7, 1981. I think it was a Monday. The venue was The Texas Moon Palace on Georgia Street in Amarillo. Headliner was George Thorogood and the Destroyers with SRV opening. SRV had that place rocking. So much so that when he finished, George and crew took the stage with looks on their faces that obviously said ... "we have to follow THAT?"

[@nellgit]

im so lucky to have seen him live twice-he taught so many of us to feel the notes and breath!more importantly he turned our generation on to his influences!thank u Stevie!u r loved!

[@mistysnowe9]

I think this is 1 of the finest songs SRV has done, and a favourite of mine as of all his music, god bless u SRV!!!!! Oh, n yess, seeing him perform this song live, I'll never forget!!

[@brenault22]

The gift of being musically inclined is one thing, but to be a musician that is a genius is something entirely different SRV is a genius ... passionate and soulful

[@mistysnowe9]

To me, this song, is by far, the best romantic song ever written, SRV we love you n miss you very much!

[@glueforall]

Its really sad to realize that he was really reaching toward his true potential right at the time he died...too bad....he was really having clarity and coming together with all his skills in force....wow, the '89 and '90 concerts i saw were amazing (esp '89...he looked a bit burned toward the tail of that '90 tour, god bless him)

[@colleendriscoll5273]

He is sorely missed. Sad I never got to see him live!!

[@vegasbabe469]

im so glad i got to see him 3 times. awesome shows. the best one was at UCSD real up close and personal

[@rexoates4484]

+Michelle Berman Damn. Lucky you. I didn't even know of him until he died.

[@dillantaylor2704]

colleen driscoll I was born in '92 and was introduced to Stevie when I was 11. I said to the guy who introduced me to Stevie, "We gotta see this guy!" and that was when I was told that he died. My heart sunk

[@lanayabaker]

I love this song and it was really a treat to get to see him play it on this video. Otherwise I don't think I have ever seen him playing it. His eyes were closed almost the whole time...what a soulful channel...

[@TheMimiof8]

SRV makes love to his guitar paying intense homage to his music. his music stirs intense feelings in the listener. i like to believe he would appreciate these small words of praise RIP SRV

[@mytracks]

...thank you for letting us put down our opinions and anger for a few minutes... this is a Healing song - and if you don't get that - then I guess it will take you a little longer to Get It... so be it. Stevie, those of us who understand want to say Thank You! I look forward to seeing what you see!

[@mistysnowe9]

This song is sooo pretty to meeee, I love it, and glad I got to hear it in person as well, romantic !!!!!! We miss u SRV

[@laylalinquinto6600]

Miss you Stevie, you live on forever in mind and in my heart .

[@mistysnowe9]

SRV, one of the best blues artists of all time, seeing him live, this is the one song I always take to heart the most, besides, if the house is a rockin, lol, rock on SRV!!

[@sweetmaxine]

SRV expressed himself thru his music and he was absolutely beautiful inside & out! R.I.P. SRV you are missed but your music lives forever! 20 years gone... way to soon

[@GoBlue0492]

One of my favorite songs of all time!

[@smallmaniac]

He died two months before I was born. I would have loved to see him play in concert. Such a great player who left too soon.

[@guitarmanrommel3865]

Stevie lives through his music and live forever.

[@Ardak666]

Just wow, it goes straight to the soul

[@bucky619]

I feel your pain brother. SRV touched my soul. His music is so beautiful it makes me think there must be a god. He lives on through us listening to his music. Life is a mystery

[@smoothgroov]

So jazzy and laid back, I love it!!

[@Vaughanaddict]

Lets just please all remember that even tho Stevie was The Best, he never wanted to be thought of as a *God*.., he didnt like that. To him, the music was simply his way of speaking, and he spoke Beautifully. Can i hear an Amen...

[@mistysnowe9]

one of the best times of my life, being able to see SRV playing this song live in Anchorge, Alaska, I am soo fortunate, Joe Cocker was also there, what a show it was, Happppy New Year All!!

[@grits4supper]

I remember seeing an interview when this was released Stevie said he was praying with/through his guitar. I think this is as close to seeing/feeling his soul as we can come on earth. This is as pure and honest as anyone can be with an instrument If that makes sense. Thanks for posting

[@dcm221985]

Yo....I knew that SRV was good but it's a down right sin to be that damn good. I am feelin' this song....this is baby makin' music right here.

[@mcbraniff]

I was in the audience when he played this song at Buckeye Lake,Oh, 1 month before he died. I remember well the statement he made before striking the first chord: "This song is for anyone in the world who is hurting for any reason"...simple, yet profound....

[@shorty69601]

the author of all things really outdid himself withe S. R. V. god bless!

[@JeffWilliamsArt]

I was at this show! I'm pretty sure it was the Tri-State Fair in Amarillo. If it was, I was there and a freshman in high school. My brother worked security and got me and my Dad into the show. They were short on security so I got to put on a shirt and work the front of the stage! It was awesome!

[@Galinblu216]

im only 15 and i love stevie ray vaughan, r.i.p.

[@dcargos]

This great guy always reached his most deep wild and sensitive feelings and express it in beautiful ways...thinking about he never studied music on a formal way, just amaze me....we missed him but he probably feel compassion about ourr situation living in this dirty world and I´m sure he lives know in an authentic Riviera Paradise (heaven) in front of the men who hangs on the cross over his neck...

[@slugsvideos]

What a smooth song!

[@delazzuro]

SRV was the master of the Strat.

[@guywalker29]

I miss him too. He certainly was something to see over and over. Always had something new to offer. If was exciting to watch.

[@pigletized]

Artists like this would never stagnate! They always excell!

[@allfe]

Absolutely Heaven!!!

[@5spartus]

my heart skipped a beat when the music stopped for several seconds around 4:30

[@BlastinAdrian]

[@chuncho666]

simplemente, un genio de la música!!!

[@kennid1023]

I lived in Amarillo at this time. Sure wish I had gone to this concert!

[@mooseydeucy]

Another song that Frankie Crocker used to play on NYC's WBLS FM back in 1989 - 90 when I had never heard of SRV...a huge loss when his plane crashed an we lost him. Great tune!

[@Vaughanaddict]

SRV will Always be a part of my life and a part of my Soul!

[@Slugg-O]

Obviously some audio problems here but it's still good. Tone poured down from the sky for this guy. I never saw him live but at least I'm glad to still be here to enjoy his music. This is why he wrote it folks. Let it live on!!!!

[@brentoman]

20 years today - we miss you, man.

[@Vaughanaddict]
