For those who don't know, it usually takes 4 or even just 3 guitars to make everything fall apart.

So, the very last song that Stevie Ray Vaughan ever played on stage was "Sweet Home Chicago", at the Alpine Valley venue in Wisconsin, hours before the helicopter crash that took his life. Playing with Stevie, in that final song of the night, was Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, and Robert Cray. I'm sure they can't help but think of SRV whenever they play this song, and surely when they join the others that were with them that fateful night.

they did "Sweet Home Chicago" as the finale... according to Clapton's quote, everyone didn't linger but were all discussing transportation back to Chicago. EC said he'd ride, he wasn't in a hurry. SRV picked up an empty seat in the copter with two of EC's people (who also perished in the crash). The caravan of cars had left the area only minutes before the helicopter took off in the thick fog. It was airborne less that 3 minutes before it hit the side of the mountain. So, time was more compressed than we'd like to think it was. The cars didn't know about the crash until they got to Chicago. EC went with Jimmie Vaughan to the morgue the next morning to identify Stevie's remains.

About the "Crossroads" ... 100 years ago there was a blues guitarist names Robert Johnson. (Charter member of "The 27 Club" - musical artist dying at 27 years old ... it's a long, IMPRESSIVE list!) Anyway - Mr Johnson went down to the crossroads, where he met with the Devil , and sold his soul for musical ability. Many blues artists will sing his songs about going down to the crossroads. And Eric Clapton would gather up and AMAZING line up every few years for his "Crossroads Tours".

Back in the days Eric Clapton had some severe alcohol and drug addiction but eventually got clean and sober. Crossroads is originally an old like blues standard written and first recorded by Robert Johnson and when EC was in the band Cream they did a cover version of that song. Nowadays it's a guitar festival hosted by EC and all the benefits of the festival goes to his treatment centre located at the island of Antiqua in the Caribbean.

There's this kid I have been following for years. He opened for Buddy Guy's show a few times this month. He impressed Buddy. The last night he performed with him, there was another kid, 9 7r old Bay who played. Taj Farrant had him cone up and play his guitar with Taj a few months ago. It was fun watching Taj give more of his playing time and mentoring to Bay. You could see it impressed Buddy as well. Taj is an old soul 15 yrs old. Many people swear he's the reincarnation of Stevie Ray Vaughn. Party because he looks a little like him and also because he has similar style in playing. Funny thing is although even though Taj loves and plays some Stevie songs, he's more into Gary Moore. When Taj plays Gary's Parisienne Walkways you just want to hold on. He also is great playing The Sky is Crying. Taj is coming out with his first album next week. He had 6 original songs from it chart at #1 on the iTunes blues charts. Loved seeing him connect with Buddy!

Half the people on that stage were also on stage with Stevie Ray Vaughan when he played for the last time, when they turned this song into a 20 minute jam. And all of them have said many times that Stevie played his absolute best that night. And then they got on helicopters to head to Chicago. It's so ironic & heartbreaking. But at least Stevie had a heckuva great time, with people he loved playing with, in his last hours. Jamel, please react to one of Stevie's most beloved instrumentals, "Riviera Paradise", the version that's live from Austin "One Night in Austin" on Austin City Limits". He dedicates it to "anyone still suffering" & then spins beauty & magic that's been known to make grown men cry.💙🌿💚

Two are friends and sure must be jamming their guitar somewhere out there on the universe .Jimi and Johnny Winter, was lucky to see him live still in good shape , Jimi was too young . Eric first time i saw him at Long Beach , was a courtesy from my friend Dennis , had met him for just over a month. We used two have few beers at least three times a week at the garden where i and his girl lived , her apartment was 10 yards from mine . He never told me , and I had no idea until a girlfriend asked How did you meet him ? Looked around point at him saying ,,,you mean Dennis .Yes where? Right where you are standing at this moment. I'm from Brazil , sure I knew who they were but not their faces. She pushed away and told me ,I know his name, and she was really pissed . I said wtf , what's going on are you mad because i'm having a beer with my friend . There she told me , he is the drummer of The Beach Boys Dennis Wilson , Really he never told me , well she went in and I walked back finish my beer told him what .went on . Did not change a thing , was and still am a surfer knew their music but wasn't never a fan . Besides was not Noel Redding , Keith Moon there was just Dennis . Asked why he never told me , my Brazilian friend first The Band is over also i suck playing the drums . We laugh for at least a minute . One day he asked me if i liked Eric Clapton and i told him about my three big idols . His words , great taste my friend., here is for you take your girl and have fun . There are times in life you get presents no money can buy , tried for weeks to get the tickets . Found scalpers charging waay too much . Two days before the concert the tickets were handed to me at my door . Long drive from S Monica to Long Beach, now walking in and looking for our seats a girl came over asked to see the tickets and said , pls follow me . When she turned right and kept walking and the stage getting closer . She stopped on the second row to our seats . Man Long Beach Sports Arena was the same size as the Forum , where the Lakers used to play and big concerts usually were . Capacity around 13.000 and we at the second roll , Eric had a black Rolex on . RIP my good friend , he died drowned at the Marina , Dennis was an alcoholic , and was about to lose his boat also home . He died around two years later , during that time we became good friends . I hate those guys even more his brother Brian, Over that bunch of crap that i wrote the only survivor is Eric , talking about the older guys . You all RIP J and J get Dennis to play the drums once in awhile ; LoL

Buddy is the shit and Eric is so tasteful! I've been to Eric's Crossroads fests and sat up front 7 times. What an utterly otherworldly experience those were! Nothin' compares. Me and the ol man were just floored; what a thing to share w/the one closest to you. All the musicians are fine ppl too; met some of em more than once. Oh Jamal, I got the privilege of standing right in front of Stevie Ray for 3 hrs, mesmerized and entranced...that was the night he was killed in a helicopter. I'm glad you got to experience this. ( Imagine hours of it bc that's how those shows are). I thk you for posting this so much. God bless

Sumlin!!!! Hubert Sumlin was the lead guitar for Howlin' Wolf and played the meanest rock n roll before they even knew what rock was!

Look up the Blues Counsel and their song " the river is rising" they have like 8 guitarists, bass player, drummer. All the guitarist and the bass player have a solo in the song. The group is made of Christian musicians who play blues style rock. You will only be disappointed if you dont see the live vid of the song. So dont be disappointed, and give it a reaction.
