[@lizardkingof1968]

Double Trouble is probably the most under rated 3 piece band ever.... and later added Reese Wynans on keyboards...pure fire👊🔥

[@DwarfsRBest]

Seconding this. They are incredible. If it ever seems like they might have not shined so brightly, it's only because they stood next to the sun.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

And Reese is still going strong with Joe Bonamassa. Just saw him last month. Incredible.

[@SGTJDerek]

No doubt but Chris' 2 are right behind them. No disrespect to Dusty and Frank but it's a different animal playing behind sombody like Stevie and Chris.

[@blakerbnsn]

If you like Double Trouble, you need to check out the ARC Angels. You might recognize a few of the members and the music is incredible!

[@rottenrobbie66]

Am a purist , I like the original SRV & double trouble 3 piece power trio.

[@user-dc2tp3tk1m]

Little fun fact about SRV and the pedal he's using . He went to Jimmy Hendrix Father and asked him if he could use his pedal to do his song with and Jimmy's father gave it to Stevie to keep.

[@wallymcguire2033]

That's incredible

[@leegoldsmith8395]

I never heard that , cool

[@suhey34]

Chris "Whipper" Layton is a very underrated drummer, glad to see you show him some love. Great reaction as always!!!!

[@blytheguy7510]

I mean, that rhythm section has to be damn good just to play with Stevie.

[@csi2448]

​@@blytheguy7510DAMN good! And to think, Stevie said you know what, let's make it even better and add Reese Wynans!

[@gsparkman]

Mitch Mitchell was such an integral part of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, it’s great to hear another fantastic drummer able to do justice to Stevie’s tributes to Jimi.

[@UglyDoug304]

I agree. Layton was the best I’ve ever heard incorporating the Texas Shuffle beat into heavy blues. It fit perfectly. Not to mention the pure talent it took to play with Stevie’s 50 different ways to play every song live!Chris and Tommy are both phenomenal musicians ❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@craenor]

Can you imagine trying to play an hour long set with Stevie? You have no set list. You have no idea what songs Stevie might choose to play. You have no idea in what unique ways he's going to play every single song on the setlist. You have no idea when he's going to suddenly drop dynamically. You have no idea when he's going to drastically change the tempo. All you can do is watch Stevie for the cues to the changes and play to the absolute edge of your extensive talent, skills, and experience.

[@docmason9677]

Stevie Ray was so cool, the way he dressed, his hat, cowboy boots, Southwest Indian style shirt or gypsy, jewelry and top all that off with him being a Guitar God, GOAT. No one to this day can out play him. He even surpassed Hendrix on Voodoo 'Chile'.

[@wickedPrints3256]

Jimi was an inspiration to Stevie. I love both versions but Stevie's has so much soul in it!

[@mavjimbo]

It's like a Ferrari and a Lamborghini

[@sjd5750]

I always get goosebumps with the line, "If I don't see you in this world..See ya in the next one..Don't be late" considering the two guys who made this song famous both met their ends way too prematurely.

[@SRG1966]

So many reactions to this song but almost none of them ever pick up on that line. It always gets me too.

[@joeybossolo7]

Indeed a point lost by most reactors out there. 😢

[@juliemanarin4127]

So sad for both

[@Motownmike73]

​@@juliemanarin4127😢

[@jimporter7602]

Pride and joy has good vocals

[@kevinsiegel]

The best way to describe SRV's playing was stated by no less than Eric Clapton: "Whenever Stevie put on a guitar, he opened up a direct channel to God.". Perfectly stated.

[@srv2217]

Tommy Shannon was also a PHENOMENAL bass player and when they added Reese Wynans on keys it took their sound up a notch to say the least.

[@ag3478]

My mom had a friend who was a bouncer at a place in Austin TX back in the day and told me Stevie Ray after a performance and the place closed would sit at the edge of the stage playing his guitar with a beer to his side and cigarette in his mouth. Said he played venues often before his fame and would leave him in awe with his talent and mentioned he was an all around down to earth guy.

[@fredkrissman6527]

An excellent cover of JimiHendrix's incomparable VoodooChile; thanx very much for this lovely reaction Aileen! The Hendrix estate is notorious for its overzealous policing of reactions here on YT, but I hope you'll have a chance to explore Jimi's oeuvre. I just rewatched the film of Jimi's performance at the original Woodstock festival ('69), and it reminded me of when I saw him at the LAForum in '68, when I was a mere 13 yrs young. That concert changed my life!

[@terrylandess6072]

Yes - Reaction not required - but checking the source material is always welcome.

[@csi2448]

Janie really is something else. I got hit by the estate many years ago for a soundcheck of Steve playing Little Wing (his last known performance of the song in 1989). A damn soundcheck!!!

[@eddunn4121]

You’re on point about this sounding like more than a trio-SRV was so fluid moving between rhythm and lead that it felt like there were two players; and Double Trouble were exceptional. It reminds me how John Lennon referred to his favorite band the Everly Brothers as “the five Everly Brothers” even though there were just two of them. Their harmonies just seemed so rich that it couldn’t be just two people.

[@AJ........]

If you wanna hear more of his vocals check out life without you live at capital theater NJ 1985. Great seeing you get into this legend and appreciate how great he actually was. He was THE MAN in his time...absolute legend

[@csi2448]

It's never usually reacted to, but I'd rather she did the Nashville 1987 performance, which was a little less than a year after Stevie almost died and then finally got sober. Stevie's speech about drugs and alcohol is must watch/react!

[@pascalkorn-newe5734]

​@@csi2448the whole show in Nashville was awesome, especially the version of voodoo child at the end always makes me laugh 😃

[@GorillasAndGardens]

This entire show is amazing. I personally love Couldn’t Stand the Weather. Groovy. You can’t stop yourself from dancing, wiggling, moving however.

[@ostlandr]

"The sky is crying" may get overplayed, but still a great tune.

[@submizeddubz9075]

This is the best srv voodoo child performance kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIGyo42cgK2dn6ssi=u2AjhZ8Le_A1ox0j

[@geneaikenii1092]

Beautiful. SRV was the man. Very nice, Aileen. Love ya and this channel. Thank you. Shoutout from this old, longhaired, hippy dude. I remember when we lost him. What a tragedy that the world will never get to know what his music could have evolved into. R.I.P. Stevie Ray Vaughan. Peace.

[@artsilva]

SRV was one of a kind. So glad you picked up on his greatness and his band. Together they were a force to be reckoned with. He definitely customized his own sound with the guitar setup he created. Gone way too soon. Awesome reaction Aileen, you're the best. btw, watching your birthday chat stream as I write this and congrats on your race win just a few minutes ago, hehe. Even though I am not a twitch user or a gamer, your streams are so fun and your interactions just might make me join 😊 Have a great day and happy belated birthday to you you fellow late august baby.

[@michaelbriefs9764]

With the drums, yes, he was much more aggressive on this song. But what I liked in particular was how "tribal" the drums got, in that section that came after the mid-point of the song. He was breaking it down by moving from a straight-ride pattern to playing more of the Tom-Toms, along with Stevie's scratchy guitarwork. They all got into a more primal or tribal treatment of the song, at that point and it was freaking killer!

[@csi2448]

You can really tell Stevie and company were fully in tune with life and subsequently the music! People usually go for the early, drug and booze fueled days. But for me, 1989 and especially his last year on this earth, 1990, were Stevie's best years. His playing, his singing, his songwriting, all of it, were at their all time best!!!

[@midnitesunblues]

Tommy Shannon, his bass player, said that as good as Stevie was at playin' he even more beautiful as human being. Everybody liked Stevie and Most Loved him. ❤‍🔥 profound loss.

[@dattexaspenguin]

If you happen to find yourself in Austin for SXSW, ACL, or whatever, check out the Stevie Ray Vaughn memorial statue on Town Lake. For those of us growing up in Austin right after his death, he took on near mystical status.

[@JoshRein9]

Oktaf Kanis - Come On, for the next reaction, thank you Aileen 🙏🏻

[@LisaEvelyn08]

You must do 'Come On' from Oktaf Kanis 💕

[@user-wc5wq7uc5y]

I was in Alpine Valley Wisc.August 26 ,1990 for Stevie Ray Vaughn's last show(Lineup: Local band, Robert Cray ,Stevie Ray Vaughn ,Headliner Eric Clapton .) After Eric Clapton finished an amazing two hour set the encore "Sweet Home Chicago" featured Eric Clapton Stevie Ray Vaughn ,Robert Cray ,Buddy Guy, Stevies' brother Jimmie Vaughn and Hubert Sumlin . My girlfriend and me cried all the way back to Ohio the next day after hearing the sad news . I am very grateful I was able to see him live at four separate venues including the first time in Dallas , Texas 1979 !

[@OldJoe212]

You are the only one I've seen that realizes how great the drummer is.

[@mandyrhee]

(Reaction Request) Oktaf Kanis - Come On 🔥

[@yavorshopov7958]

Ms,i can see you attending a gig like this back in the day and having the time of your life!My father’s generation was blessed to live and grow in a great era of music!

[@sylviapotter6328]

Stevie Ray Vaughan was beyond amazing he was the true G-O-A-T, he had talent that we will never see again in our life time. Stevie started playing guitar at the age of 7 when his brother Jimmie Vaughan who is 3 yrs older then Stevie got an electric guitar that Stevie fell in love with and would play it whenever Jimmie left the house. On Stevie's 7th birthday he got a toy guitar and on that TOY GUITAR he learned to play Wine Wine Wine and Thunderbird by The Night Caps. Stevie joined a band when he was 10 yrs old called Krackerjack along with basses for Double Trouble Tommy Shannon, their first gig was at a roller rink so Jimmie gave Stevie his electric guitar, Stevie had that guitar and used it occasionally until his death. Jimmie is a great guitarist In his own right, he had a band called The Fabulous Thunderbirds and still plays today. Stevie started a band in 1977 called The Triple Threat Reuve, he had a female singer named Lou Ann Barton, Chris Layton the drummer for Double Trouble joined The Triple Threat Reuve on September 10,1978 and was with Stevie until his death. On November 24,1979 Lou Ann Barton left Triple Threat Reuve with and Stevie replaced her on vocals, in 1980 Stevie Ray changed the name to Double Trouble, Tommy Shannon joined Double Trouble on June 23,1981 and Reese Wynans joined Double Trouble on June 7,1985 on keys. Stevie Ray's career only span 7 yrs but he accomplished so much and got many awards, starting with his album Texas Flood that was released June 13,1983 that album put him on the map and Stevie became a big Blues artists that every old and newer Blues artist loved and respected on December 13, 1983 Austin City Limits video, this video you're watching was voted Guitar Player Magazine's Best New Talent, Best Electric Blues Guitar Player and Best Guitar Album with Texas Flood, Stevie Ray and Jeff Beck are the only 2 Triple Award Guitarist in history. On November 18,1984 Stevie won a W.C.Handy National Blues Award, Entertainer Of The Year and Instermental Of The Year, Stevie was the only white man to win either. In 1982 Stevie was the first musician to be inducted into The Austin Music Hall Of Fame, in 2000 Stevie was inducted into The Blues Hall Of Fame and in 2015 he was inducted into The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. Stevie won 6 Grammys, 10 Austin Music Awards, 5 W.C.Handy Awards and many others but sadly Stevie never got to enjoy a #1 hit until 2 months after his death with a song called Crossfire. On August 26, 1990 Stevie Ray flew to East Troy Wisconsin to open 2 shows for Eric Clapton along with Robert Clay, Buddy Guy and his brother Jimmie Vaughan, Stevie came down from his hotel room and told Jimmie and the band he had a weird dream that he died, he was looking down at all these people crying, he said it was weird but he felt at peace. On August 27,1990 after Eric Clapton finish his last show Stevie Ray, Buddy Guy, Robert Clay and Stevie's brother Jimmie came on stage and the last song Stevie Ray ever performed was Sweet Home Chicago by Robert Johnson. On August 27,1990 Stevie boarded a helicopter that crashed into the side of a mountain right after takeoff and everyone on board were killed instantly. The pilot had just failed his test on using the gages for that helicopter, he never flew that helicopter and he never flew at night. You're right on point when you say he is sadly missed every day, this show was recorded only 10 months before his death and it breaks my heart sometimes watching his videos but happy to enjoy watching him at the same time. Great reaction.

[@jameskillough3376]

Nope sorry Jimi was and is the first and only goat ever Jimi showed all these guys how it was done they followed.

[@GarethLone]

Aileen, you should do COME ON by Oktaf Kanis, thank you 🙌🏻

[@manicmonday-3833]

'Come On' from Oktaf Kanis, for your next reaction Aileen 💕

[@venomdust1]

Sometimes the Universe shows the meaning of perfection and SRV is one example . 🤘RIP

[@marvinsarracino116]

Great reaction to great music! I'm so happy you listened and enjoyed SRV! I like the way you Groove it makes me groove and enjoy the vibe too! 😊 A SRV song with more vocals is crossfire. Thanks again, Luv ya Aileen ❤💛

[@unholydriver4987]

Aileen, if want to experience an emotional ride with SRV, I suggest you check out "Life Without You" - live at the Capitol Theater. What a sweet song, with a wonderful spoken message during the performance. Also, you get to hear a softer, more sensuous side to his vocals....I think you'll love it.

[@csi2448]

I think she needs to do the Nashville 1987 performance. Him talking about almost dying because of drugs and alcohol will be an eye opener. The ability to open up like that in front of thousands is something that will get to ya!

[@DavidPolish]

Love your reaction Aileen! Next do a reaction to 'Oktaf Kanis - Come On' thanks!

[@ariessmith4910]

Great reaction! Suggestion- stevie ray vaughan, "life without you" live capitol theatre 1985. This is a must watch! He has more tricks on the guitar and You also learn something about his character and who he was as a person in this... Peace 🤘🏻

[@gsturnerjr]

The most heart-felt performance!!!

[@PaulThoresen]

Now you are talking! Such an awesome song, and such an awesome version. Enjoy!

[@flownif]

Great reaction again! So amazing to see also is that his right hand is constantly adjusting the volume and tone knobs, especially after the first solo which sounds a bit “sharp”. You can actually hear that the guitar tone is much smoother after his adjustments. So besides playing a very fast song, he’s constantly thinking if he’s producing the best sound. Stevie truly was one of the greats….

[@srv2217]

[@SRVfangirl]

I couldn’t agree with you more!!! 👍👍

[@scythe0722]

Great reaction Aileen, please do Stevie- Life Without You! It showcases his voice a little more.

[@humpy936]

Yessssss!❤

[@MRBrien77]

Stevie and his brother Jimmie doing pipeline IS A MUST

[@VictoriaQueen11]

Amazing reaction! Next you should do a reaction to 'Come On' by Oktaf Kanis, thanks Aileen!

[@JAshton1973]

watching Stevie is totally different that just listening. When you see him play, you see every single cell of his being goes into every note. Even when he made it look easy. Double Trouble.....what more can you say? Incredible band. DAMN I miss SRV. @ 9:54 Yes, it feels like 2 vocalists, the singer and the guitar. That is The Blues. Check out BB King. Him and Lucille did some mighty fine singing together.

[@jimgates7293]

As a Bass player myself I love it when you mention & appreciate the Bass players ❤

[@grandwazoodebris1015]

When you said the guitar looks like another limb, that caught my attention. That's the thing I remember about the first time I saw Hendrix films, the way he moved w/ the guitar, it really was like an extension of his body. I don't mean the flashy stuff, playing behind his back or with his teeth, I mean just standing & playing or dancing a little, it was like another limb. SRV is similar, it's just part of them, it's pretty crazy. I suppose its some combination of untold hours of playing, amazing talent, and just doing what they were meant to do.

[@Gort-Marvin0Martian]

Stevie Ray along with Chris Leyton (drummer) aand Tommy Shannon (bassist) were Double Trouble. As always, so much fun watching you react to greatness. As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.

[@Gort-Marvin0Martian]

@@G-BUD_Budlong Of course.

[@KeepinItRealAlways]

Stevie Ray Vaughan is a f’ing LEGEND!!!!

[@michaelheller8841]

The great thing about SRV is that he didn't use a lot of stompboxes or pedals. He has his Vox wah wah, Tube screamer and not many other effects some of the older Electro-Harmonix effects. His main tones came right out of his Fender Strat and Dumble Amps. Very expensive gear to buy and sound like him but at the time Dumble Amps didn't sell for over $75k and Strats were not that crazy expensive as today. The key to SRV is his hands and incredible talent. Cool reactions from you and I like that you pointed out the drums and the bass, Double Trouble was fantastic.

[@Rick-or2kq]

The bass player is Tommy Shannon, who early played with Johonny and Edgar Winters. There is a video on YT of them doing the song "Tobacco Road" with Tommy on bass.

[@ccrowe256]

I love your reactions to Stevie Ray Vaughan. I find it interesting that you mentioned it sounded like the guitar was singing in paragraphs, because BB King said that when he played, he played in sentences, but when Stevie played, he played in paragraphs. The music just seemed to pour out of him. Eric Clapton, and others said that it was like he was an open channel that the music just flowed through. I will continue to watch for more SRV reactions from you. A couple of suggestions are “ain’t gonna give up on love“ from the Daytona Beach concert and also “tin Pan Alley“ with Johnny Copeland. You will definitely get more of his vocals with those two songs. Stevie Ray Vaughan was a once in a generation talent, and there are those who will imitate him, but no one can truly even come close to his musical genius.

[@markdecker6190]

Yes, his playing can be very sexy at times, especially the way he bends and holds those notes at the end of this song, almost makes you reach for a cigarette afterwards!

[@skyleralaniz2361]

Wow, you actually did it ❤❤❤

[@UglyDoug304]

Hey Aileen. You’re the same age as my youngest daughter. Happy birthday. Anyway, I love seeing young people discovering the great music that us old folks grew up listening to. Your descriptive narrative while watching and listening to music is awesome and refreshing. I’m a lifelong musician from Texas where SRV is Royalty. Keep bringing us great music reactions. The Black Crowes are a band you might find extremely addictive. Thanks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@ezsmith3765]

I highly recommend reacting to SRV doing yet another Hendrix cover... “Third Stone from the Sun” 1983 in Germany at “Rockpalast”. Actually if memory serves correct SRV does a bit of a Mini Hendrix medley. So actually he starts out playing a beautiful instrumental version of “Little Wing” then instantly transitions and shifts gears going straight into “Third Stone” It’s a legendary performance. No other guitarist would even dare to attempt to cover Jimi in this manner. Meaning that SRV played these Hendrix classics just the way that Jimi wrote them to be played AND SRV even added his own flair in places. Bold, brave, beautiful !!

[@shelleyking8450]

SRV plays so hard, it even makes YOU get guitar face just from listening. Unequaled, dark, dirty soul.

[@csi2448]

'Leave My Girl Alone' from this same show will give you an even greater appreciation of Stevie. You'll know you've reached the point of no return when Stevie's eyes roll into the back of his head. When you see that, hold the fuck on, cause he goes OFF!!!

[@redrum482]

Great reaction! The Drums and Bass are laying it down hard for this whole song so Stevie can surf on it.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

Those guitar sounds that Jimi Hendrix brought to us and that Stevie is thrilling us with here……the incredible bends, the wa wa peddle, the distortion…..those are my favorite sounds in Rock. Goosebumps even after 55 years.

[@one007guy]

I love Slash...but my God! When you see Stevie, and then you hear this song...Powerful!!!

[@MRBrien77]

It was once said that Stevie was an open channel and the music just flowed through him

[@davidhodge2983]

yes and it was none other than the great BB King that said that of Stevie!

[@RobertRose-ki6qp]

SRV is a master and the whole band are great on this. Great Stuff!

[@lonnieedwards5843]

That guitar is sitting in the Music Museum outside Phoenix. The museum is amazing for true music lovers, takes 2 days to get through all the world exhibits.

[@papabob1127]

Stevie’s Bassist and drummer were known as Double Trouble. After Stevie died they became the Archangels

[@poodster]

Love the SRV reactions! You definitely should react to Life Without You - Live in Passaic, NJ, 1985. It’s a real tearjerker especially if you do your research on the song.

[@tn_bayouwulf2949]

Stevie's technical proficiency was on point, in this performance. I'll repeat my statement that, you should watch the video at the El Macombo of "Third Stone From the Sun."

[@csi2448]

She'd have to start with 'Little Wing' and then do that right after!

[@user-zq5jd7ee9n]

Others may have already told you, so I'm sorry if this is a repeat. I just wanted to say that your first video with him was in July 1983 at the El Mocambo. He had not gotten clean from his addictions yet. This song here, though, is from the Austin City Limits TV show that they did in October 1989. He had been clean for about 3 years at this point. In this particular show, he did have an additional musician. Reese Wynans was on keyboards by this time, so Double Trouble was now Stevie plus three. You should really take the time to watch all the videos from this particular night. Final note: he did normally use 13s for his strings. This night, he was using 11s.

[@jlmain5777]

There are so many Texas guitarists to explore going back to the very beginning of recording Blind Lemon Jefferson, Lightnin’ Hopkins, T-Bone Walker, Charlie Christian, Albert Collins, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown, Johnny “Guitar” Watson, Freddie King, Willie Nelson, Buddy Holly, Johnny Winter, Steve Miller, Stephen Stills, Billy Gibbons and Stevie’s brother Jimmie Vaughan. Many more.

[@MsRmaclaren]

For years, while I was a musician in the Bay Area gigging all over the place, I tried and tried to play as well as SRV. It never happened. I became a bassist which gave me lots more work than I ever though possible. SRV and Jimi are what kept me in bands. Love SRV.

[@jonathonhuber7855]

Such a good song

[@treystevenson9872]

SRV and his band Double Trouble were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015.

[@AnthonyDavio-yu5ci]

Got to see him twice live 3rd row both times Merriweather post pavilion in Maryland. Otherwordly being there. No words. I cried all day when I got the news. Still do when listen.

[@user-bh5jv8hi3b]

Stevie's backing band , Double Trouble , Chris "Whipper" Layton on drums & Tommy "Slut" Shannon on bass knew what their job was . Just lay down a good fat groove and let SRV do his Thang . The guitar SRV is playing in this video is his beloved guitar known as "#1" . That guitar has it's own interesting biography you might want to check out . 🙂

[@Tarkus_]

You should know, Stevie and the entire Double Trouble band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015, including Chris Layton (drums), Tommy Shannon (bass) and Reese Wynans (keyboards). Reese came along later, to make them a four-piece, and he was a ridiculous talent himself. Yeah, they were a very talented band.

[@davidaquarius9089]

I always shy away from 'the best' or 'the greatest' labels on artists. Each performer has their own magic, their own soul they imbue into their gift. Stevie is one of the greatest guitar players ever to have graced our sad universe. He brought his talent into our lives for just a short time, too short but we are grateful for what he gave us. I listened to Jimi Hendrix long before I heard of Stevie and thought that there could never be anyone good enough to stand next to him. But as I became familiar with Stevie's gift, I realized that the spirit of Jimi Hendrix smiled on Stevie from the beginning. Imagine right now, in Rock and Roll Heaven, Jimi and Stevie jamming together for the angels. Lucky goddamn angels! Wonderful reaction, Aileen. I am enjoying your venture into the world of Stevie Ray Vaughn. As you travel into his music, you will lose your mind but nourish your soul. Blessings!

[@AnitaAshhh]

I recommend to Oktaf Kanis - Come On, thanks Aileen 😊

[@dthur1003]

I think you hit the nail on the head saying the guitar was the 2nd vocalist !!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@SRVfangirl]

Check out early Stevie’s 1982 Montreux Jazz Festival performance, Dirty Pool. It was before they even had a record contract. Amazing soulful gritty blues. One of my personal favorites that for some odd reason seems to not get as much play.

[@markyncole]

You should check out any of The Vaughan Brothers Family Style songs,it's Stevie and his big brother Jimmy playing together,it was SRV's last album. He also played his last show the night he died with Jimmy,who asked Stevie to stay and hang out after the show but Stevie had prior engagements to go to so he had to get on that helicopter to make them.

[@ErickSowder]

Absolute master on the guitar!

[@oldmanghost219]

Stevie Ray Vaughan at Austin City Limits. I have this whole video. It is great. I think it is in the song ...Look at Little Sister ... that he breaks a string. The switch of guitars is so smooth that we viewed it many times without noticing that he finished playing with a different guitar.

[@allendesalme197]

He does Mary Had A Little Lamb - yes, that song - there is one that is just titled "Sound Check" and one where he plays French jazz - the guy is amazing

[@kathyyoung9539]

Stevie Ray made the Guitar talk. He did it all the time. Waite till you hear Lenny and Rivearia Paridise. Both song's where written for his Wife Lenny. ❤❤ She loved em. She knew exactly 💯 % knewevery word he was sayin' with just the Fender Strat Guitar. ❤❤ I loved that man to death. ❤❤

[@redjeepjo]

... the best analysis/description of Stevie Ray that I have ever heard 💥💥💥 ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎

[@jxstified7558]

Top 5 guitarist of all time for me, just so talented and insane.

[@petermurphy7901]

Stories have been told that Stevie would push the strings so hard that he would rip the skin of his fingertips. Then go backstage and super glue them closed then come back and wail for another hour plus. 😍 There is another video of him doing this same song at the Montreux rock festival im the mid 80's and that video is over 11 minutes long.

[@kathyyoung9539]

The band is called Double Trouble and they where!!❤❤❤❤

[@Nueral]

I was speeding from twitch here and I got a speeding ticket but oh well I rather not miss a vid 😂😂❤

[@kevincaulder20]

It's time for your jaw to hit the floor again. Please react to Jeff Healey and his video for SEE THE LIGHT. Not only is his talent off the charts, Stevie Ray discovered this young firebrand. You will also notice that he is accompanied by the great Dr. John on the keyboards absolutely destroying the piano along with the rhythm section. And to top off everything else, Jeff Healey blind. Yes blind. You want to see this video before you catch both of them together. Happy Birthday, Aileen !! And enjoy.

[@tonyroma9305]

He spoke a language that spoke to everyone but one that no one else could speak.

[@byrnez2755]

I agree with you on the bassist and drummer of Double Trouble being amazing musicians. Hard for amazing musicians like Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon being noticed when you play with Stevie Ray Vaughan haha. They wouldn't go unnoticed in any other band (haha). As for the song, this is a perfect example of why I prefer SRV over Jimmy Hendrix. SRV's rendition of this song just seems cleaner and more cohesive than Hendrix's original version. SRV talked many times in interviews how much he respected Jimmy Hendrix. The entire "Live at Austin City Limits" concert was amazing!

Stevie is a legend and ANYTHING from his catalog will not disappoint 😊 Check out Jeff Healey's "See The Light" from Night Music 🔥 Jeff was a blind blues/jazz guitarist looked up to by his heros, Stevie included. He had Dr. John on piano, Marcus Miller on bass, and Omar Hakim on drums,quite possibly one of the best ever assembled. ✌️❤️🇨🇦

5:13 "I believe this is who he toured with. I think it was SRV and those were his accompanying musicians." I don't think that they ever really thought of themselves as his accompanying musicians. Double Trouble started as a 5-piece, and only began billing themselves as SRV and Double Trouble a couple years later, after the original singer and the sax player(!) left, and they decided to continue as a power trio with SRV fronting rice band. Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon weren't the original drummer and bassist, but they were the drummer and bassist at the time that they became a power trio. They've had a few other musicians come and go. I really like the live songs when they were a 4-piece with Reese Wynams on keys. I really dig his solos, and what he adds during the rest of the tracks, and SRV always made sure that he, or any other musician who was guesting, had their full space to shine. And Layton and Shannon continued as Double Trouble after SRV's passing, and are _still_ active and putting out music; both as rhythm sections for other musicians, and having others guest on their own tracks. They've played together for about 42 years now. Musicians can develop a feel for playing with each other through experience. But a rhythm section that intuitively clicks and grooves together is special. They were that tight together _four decades ago._ That kind of stage and studio chemistry is indescribable.

Aileen, You have selected a video by one of the best EVER.. Stevie was great. His brother Jimmy is darn good also........... I saw Jimmy with the Fabulous Thunderbirds in Raleigh, NC a few years ago. Jimmie was good, maybe not as well known as brother Stevie. Both gifted guitarist.......................... Rock out girl............... This song is fun!!!!!!!!

Stevie used to get in trouble in HS for falling asleep in class. He was playing the blues clubs in Dallas at 15-16 years old.

Love your reaction to SRV, there was a group years ago in the UK called Ten years after, definitely worth a look if you enjoy this kind of energy. Can’t keep from cryin, I’d love to change the world and I’m going home, if you enjoy drum solos the track hobbit is a great one. Alvin Lee is the lead vocalist and guitarist greatly underrated. Sadly he passed away in 2013.

[@raymcarthur3870]

Good Call, I always feel like his guitar is telling the story. The guy was on another level.

[@fredbarnes2600]

The only person to give Jimi serious competition on this song. Ever. Great reaction!

[@Musicmanrobert]

There's no point in comparing the two. They were the 2 greatest ever . Both had that something beyond that cannot truly be compared .

The Cat in the Hat with a Strat! Gone but never forgotten Stevie.

[@spaceman89100]

Stevie owned a V864 wah that had belonged to Jimi Hendrix. It was given to him by his brother Jimmie Vaughan, who had acquired it from Hendrix himself.

You need to remember that Stevie is creating these bends with what are essentially bridge 🌉 cable!..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋🤠
