Absolutely

[@tomaleshire4145]

Stevie Ray died in 1990 in a helicopter crash. He was, is, and forever will be the pride and joy of Austin 🇨🇱! I saw Stevie at least 20 times! We used to pay $3.00 to see Stevie live at clubs in Austin. He was a regular at Antones, the world famous blues venue where everyone from Muddy Waters to B B and Albert King played and always let Stevie sit in if he dropped by. Loved and respected by ALL the old blues masters. Absolutely one of the all time greatest guitarists! A true guitar god! RIP SRV! 😥 Thank you for the music you left for us.

There is no one comparable to SRV. The great Eric Clapton once said he could only listen and watch Stevie for one or two songs before he had to leave or he would never be able to play a guitar again. Stevie was that amazing.

[@selkiepeople3722]

💯💯💯💯

[@dgreene4234]

I was at his last two shows at Alpine Valley where he died. Eric Clapton had to follow him as the closing act. Clapton came on stage after Stevie finished and proclaimed Stevie the Greatest of All Time. And then Clapton asked the crowd, "How in the hell do I follow that?" He proceeded to play all love ballads because it was all he could do. His show became a couples concert. By then we were so blown away by Stevie we hardly listened to Eric. We just sat there in awe for hours. It was a spiritual experience. I've been to hundreds of shows and that performance still ranks #1. I cried like a baby when I got the news of the crash at work the next day. That damn fog made my drive home a bitch. His helicopter pilot had no business taking off in it.

[@deltawhiskey1398]

Eric said that when he first heard Stevie, he was driving....and he had to pull over and find out who he was....right then.....he couldn't wait. He said that Stevie was the first guitar player to impact him like that since Jimi.

My first week of college. I had just taken a pass on his previous tour TWICE WITHIN 90 MINUTES OF MY HOUSE, because I said to myself, "Now that he's clean and sober, he'll be around for a long time. I'll catch the next tour." There never was a next tour. 😭😭😭😭😭 That was 29 years ago, and it hurts just as much now as it did the day he passed.

[@joeday4293]

@james crowe A few short years after he got clean, after years of having a shot of Crown Royal with a pinch of cocaine in it for breakfast every morning. He finally gets sober, records the best album of his life, and then dies in a damn helicopter crash. There ain't no justice in this mean old world. I mean, not a goddamn shred of it.

Chris Duarte is the guy that has filled SRVs shoes, since 1990... and ironically enough Chris's from Austin Texas. He comes from the same generation and Tradition, as SRV but Chris is heavily jazz influenced and it puts him in a relatively obscure place but he's probably the best guitar alive. Hell Eddie Van Halen even said in response to: "what's it like to be the best guitar player alive?" Eddie's response was, "I don't know, ask Chris Duarte." Just figured I'd fill you in.

[@5siggi]

In 2 days it will be 29 years since his death 😢 My friends were at his last concert at Alpine Valley in East Troy, Wisconsin. It's a ski resort and after the concert it was very foggy. SRV got on a helicopter to take him to the airport in Chicago but it crashed into a ski hill, just after midnight, killing him and 4 other people. The pilot Jeff Brown, agent Bobby Brooks, bodyguard Nigel Browne, and tour manager Colin Smythe were also killed. The concert was SRV and his band Double Trouble featuring Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray and Jimmie Vaughan. What a horrific tragedy and loss to the music world and families! Even though there are other great guitar players, he was one of a kind!

[@pat_in_va8605]

Clapton let SRV take his seat on the helicopter. It was quite a bit before Clapton got over that.

August 27, 1990 was a very sad day for me and the world. I was headed to the Jersey shore (Wildwood N.J.) right after I heard the news. My first stop when I got there was a custom airbrush T-shirt shop where I had a shirt made of my own design in honor of my hero. I still have that shirt. I felt his music, and the fact that we shared a birthday 10 years apart resonated with me. He was born October 3, 1954 and I was born in '64! I felt like I knew him! I truly miss him.

A little before my time, but I’m grateful my mom passed along her taste in music. As far as modern guitarists, I’m going to recommend Allegaeon “Gray Matter Mechanics”.

Stevie Ray was born in Dallas and raised on Glenfield Av in Oak Cliff section of South Dallas. His childhood home marked on Google maps. He began playing in Dallas bands in his early teens. He left home at a very young age and moved to Austin where he played for a number of years, very well known blues guitarist in area very quickly until he gained national exposure in early 80s. He always considered Austin his home base.

Johnny Lang and Kenny Wayne Shepherd are two I think are cut from a similar mold as Stevie but there is only one and will never be another SRV.

[@anthonyrodriguez625]

Johnny lang is awesome! I'm just starting to listen to Kenny Wayne Sheppard. I can tell from listening to Jonny lang? He he has that same kind of soul when he plays.not to mention he was only 13 years old when he recorded his first album

[@Coach15Advo]

Had the pleasure of seeing KWS in Denver a couple years. Very talented guy who admits that he was influenced by SRV.

[@anthonyrodriguez625]

@@Coach15Advo that's awesome, kws was heavily influenced by stevie ray Vaughn. John Mayor to.a guitar player a lot of people might not be familiar with is from a group called Los lonely boy's. He's a big stevie ray Vaughn fan as well as Carlos Santana. If your interested in checking him out? Look up there first album under the same name. The whole album is awesome

[@jerryp8263]

Don’t forget Derek Trucks

[@csi2448]

KWS is a massive SRV fan. He's had Stevie's drummer Chris Layton playing in his band for ages now!

[@edwardhayes2465]

There is, almost, a world wide universal reaction to him playing behind his back. I love it!

[@stevew585]

THE MASTER!

[@tonyborton1544]

I saw him at Red Rocks. I cried. He and the guitar were one. It was weird and spiritual. The guitar was an extension of him, and we felt what he was feeling. I can’t explain it. I wept. Seriously.

[@lindanoel1853]

So many of us who have heard Stevie and Double Trouble have cried watching these youtubes (especially THIS one) but although I didn't go see him when we were both in Seattle 1985, I get chills and tears and gratitude when I listen (and dance with my basketball) and see him here. Linda 75 yrs.

Look back to BB King, Muddy Waters, and further back to Robert Johnson, Stevie Rey Vaughn is the the best I have ever heard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@waynestumbo2408]

That's not sweat. That's his soul dripping out. RIP Stevie.

[@DaRkHoRsE-_-]

When you want to go down to the river and be saved..its because of artists like SRV...no one compares,, to yu SRV ... and not resting in peace brother, but tearing it up with the angels...

[@Pilot545]

Haha. LOVE to see newbies’ reaction to SRV! Great pick for your first one. More more more!

[@mzluna313]

He was born and raised in Dallas Texas and we lost him on August 27, 1990

[@ritamead6318]

Luna... Awesome!

[@nyfrankie9460]

He never looks at his guitar…..or what he’s doing! Amazing. Honestly this left me speechless!

The Greatest of all time! Mr Stevie Ray Vaughn!!! Joe Bonamassa comes close to Stevie today.

[@jackscott5593]

Is anyone like SRV today? The short answer is no. And it's not even close. There are many talented cats out there, but none can come close to measuring up to Stevie. There is one bad a$$ dude still alive that is in the same vein as SRV and the other greats, and that's Buddy Guy. Dude is 80+ and still killing it! Gotta check him out. PS - Buddy and Stevie were tight. Check them out playing Champagne and Reefer together. Daaaaaaayum!

[@humboldtharry4248]

Jack Scott check out Marcus King

[@CatherineRhoadsNC144]

Banamaso. His fingers have their own brains.

[@anthonyrodriguez625]

In my opinion? The only guitarist who could possibly set the neck of the guitar on fire with his speed and agility. The man was truly from another time

[@shirleymuhleisen683]

SRV was from Dallas. These days some good guitarists are Joe Bonamassa, Eric Johnson and Kenny Wayne Shepherd (who plays Electric Blues and does his own and some SRV songs really well. and has an excellent lead singer Noah Hunt). SRV is my guitar hero of all time tho: RIP😎🎸

[@MRBrien77]

Born in Dallas migrated to Austin. Kenny Wayne Shepard is my next Stevie. And the 21 people who put thumbs down have no musical taste what so ever

[@shark7352]

I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed. - BB King
