STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN- VOODOO CHILD (REACTION VIDEO)

[@greatunz67]

The greatest guitarist who ever lived, he wasn't a player, he and the guitar were one, he was a conduit to the music which just flowed through his hands, he could play anything.

[@bigtasty8401]

Bonamassa and Satriani are in that category.

@Jeff Fowler I'm not a guitarist so it's tougher for me to argue but i know some phenomenal guitarists that would argue that Bonamassa and Walter Trout are possibly the best ever.

He was actually adjusting one of the knobs on his pedals. The tone wasn't quite right for him. Another fun fact, Stevie was legendary for his strong hands. You'll see he has his eyes closed about 90% of the time if not more. He used 13 gauge strings which are some of the thickest and are difficult to bend but he would still break strings.

[@larryg7126]

I agree Stevie would be appalled to be compared to Jimi as being better. He certainty was as good and had much better pedals and equipment plus had Jimi as an example of where to go with his sound which owes more to a number of blues masters than to Jimi.

[@michaelgross8635]

I was lucky enough to have seen SRV play just one month before he died in 1990 - one of the best shows I ever saw. What made it doubly tragic was that he was newly clean and sober and was playing at the top of his game (as you observed). He was so grateful to be alive and made a point of letting the audience know. If you want to get a taste of another side of Stevie, I highly recommend this emotional track (Riviera Paradise) from the same show you just watched (Austin City Limits 1989). This is one of my all-time favorites: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZTCaYmLgZqdodU - it was one of the last things I watched with my Dad before he passed earlier this year.

Exactly, and I am a HUGE prince fan and while prince is actually a very underrated guitarist and was one of the best.... SRV is in a tier by himself.

[@watchthis7767]

Prince is an amazing guitarist, songwriter and performer. But, as far as guitar playing alone, I agree, Stevie’s got him beat. For me Stevie and Jimi are in a class all by themselves. No disrespect to Prince, Clapton, Gibbons, Page, May or any of the other legends, but I think they’d even agree.

[@GBlues1]

John Perry no Prince isn’t an amazing guitarist. He could play, but he couldn’t land on the root note, on the beat, to save his life. His solo, the one everyone talks about, his Rock n roll hall of fame solo was absolute trash. Didn’t follow the rhythm or the music at all. It was just about him trying to show off, and all he showed was his Ass. Great songwriter? Matter of opinion. Mediocre guitar player... I’d say it’s observable. Just my take.

[@markzegarac8574]

I see where a few people say he bends down to adjust the knobs on his foot pedals to tweak the guitar tone, but that's what the foot pedal itself is for. When he's bending down it's to quickly grab himself a new guitar pick as he had just broken the one he was using. Right there on the floor in front of him is a little rack holding a boatload of them as he breaks so many throughout each song and show. Great reaction, I was fortunate enough myself to see him live two weeks before his fateful helicopter crash.... I'll never forget that show...

[@TheBlaster54]

To say Stevie is talented is a colossal understatement. Stevie was one of those rare, once in a generation, supremely gifted people that were born to do what they do. Stevie idolized the great blues players of his time and those that came before him. Whenever he would play with the likes of B.B. King, Albert King and, Johnny Copeland and the rest he always showed them the greatest respect and admiration. Stevie was a very humble person. He received the highest honor, praise and respect from the best blues players of his era during his time on earth. Stevie was heavily influenced by Jimmy Hendrix and all of the greatest black blues players during his time, but his greatest influence and mentor was Albert King. Stevie idolized Albert. He would spend as much time with Albert as he could so that he could learn how to play like Albert. Rock guitar legend, Eric Clapton was so impressed by Stevie’s talent that when he was scheduled to play after Stevie during a blues concert Eric, refused to go on. When asked why he wouldn’t go on, Eric said, “How do you follow that?” Eric said, “I have never seen a man more at one with his ax than Stevie Ray Vaughn is. Stevie received high praise from B.B. King, Albert Collins, Howlin’ Wolf and so many other great blues players. It was at the time of Stevie’s death that he was finally receiving the national recognition that he deserved. Two weeks before Stevie died in that helicopter crash my brother saw Stevie at a blues concert that had Joe Cocker head lining with Stevie and Double Trouble backing him up. My brother didn’t know who Stevie was before the concert and when he described his concert experience to me he said Joe was good, but Stevie Ray Vaughn blew him and the rest of the crowd away.
