I heard his voice described once as "honey poured over gravel". I think that just about covers it. And the way he clings to the guitar; it seems like the one thing in the world that is holding him together. I have to stop watching these live performances for a while, I just start crying every time...how unfair that he's gone!

You and I know the story when Eric was to follow Stevie on stage but as he stood to the side of the stage he became so frustrated he turned and walked out the back door of the venue. His people followed him out to get him to come back in but Eric was adamant, "what's the use? what's the use?" He was coaxed back in but EC later said "Stevie was just a channel, he'd go from one idea to the next without a pause" He said, "sometimes I'm out there and get lost thinking 'what do I do next?' but I never heard Stevie miss a note or not close a phrase."

One of the members of Double Trouble once said in an interview I read in a guitar mag about 20 years ago or so that (to paraphrase) some artists don't play a song the same way twice. SRV didn't play a song the same way once. Not sure if it 100% makes sense as a statement, but it speaks to just how spontaneous and on-the-edge Stevie's playing was, which was a big part of what made it so special.

SRV was a musician that used his guitar as an extension of his body. They worked together as one unit...the vocal chops are often overlooked because of his supernatural guitar skills, but he could sing the blues with the best of them. This man took the blues guitar to another level all his own. There will never be another musician like him again...RIP. gone too soon.

My parents grew up going to Stevie concerts way back when he we was playing dives. He would be thrilled someone said he had an incredible voice, and you're right. But he really worked on it. In the beginning he was always a great guitar player, but an absolutely horrible singer. He probably worked harder at singing than he had to at playing guitar.

I found this video by accident, but very glad I did. And I had to chuckle, from the very beginning. People always used to joke with Stevie about what they called his "guitar face." All those facial expressions he made when he played, especially leads. Stevie always took it in stride and would make fun of himself about doing that. When the music started, YOU started making that "blues listening" face. Your eyes closed a bit, started bobbing your head up and down, back and forth a bit. You were feeling the soul of it all. You feel it watching a video and listening to this over a computer...imagine what it was like seeing Stevie live, being in a small room or concert hall, REALLY hearing and feeling this. It was absolute magic and there was nothing better. Stevie was a good friend and mentor to me. I was just a teenager. But I saw him live a lot, mostly from the side of the stage or in the wings. If it didn't affect or move everyone in the room, then something was wrong with some of those people. Stevie's an example that, you don't have to be a good singer in the mechanics and technical aspects, to BE a good singer. Same goes for like Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash. But they all had their own style, their trademark sound, you could instantly recognize their voice on anything they sang on. Stevie never meant to be a singer. He just wanted to play guitar. But in some early bands, they had a singer that would run late, or just not show up. So, Stevie would step and sing out of desperation. Despite his blues, soul and rock influences, Stevie never tried to sing like anyone but himself. Never tried to be like anyone but himself in every aspect. Like his guitar playing, which he very much made that guitar sing...his voice was always so full of soul and emotion. It would make you FEEL. Stevie called it his "chainsaw voice." The way he thought it sounded, but also the way his throat would start to feel, after doing long stints of touring. He gave so much of himself performing, he'd be absolutely exhausted afterwards. But also invigorated, by the response of the crowds. He always gave more of himself than he ever wanted or expected to get back. I hope you can truly hear that in all of his music.

So much fun to see you connect and groove to SRV’s guitar playing! No surprise at all. And yes, that’s his band Double Trouble, including drummer Chris Layton and bassist Tommy Shannon, who were with the band from the beginning, and apparently still active as DT today (per Wikipedia) even though Stevie has passed (killed in a helicopter crash). Stevie admired Jimmy Hendrix and covered his song “Voodoo Child” in the same concert.

AGREE! Me to - Girl you must watch Stevie his entire performance.. At least at first.. Let him close his eyes and feel it and I understand why you get caught up feeling it with him.. I read a com recent of another reactor closing his eyes or looking away often (may have been Voodoo Child) and someone said two rules to watching/listening SRV - first best live performances and 2 open your eyes look at him.. Stevie's voice was phenomenal as it came from the same place of great depth within with such pure raw passion heart & soul as his guitar.. Hope to meet you on the other side brother in the everlasting plane of existence the Spirit realm once this temporary flesh passes away.. Beth if you read this, great reaction I understand why you stop it often as seeing hearing much important to com on in the moment but listen/watch uninterrupted to any and more of Stevie on your own.. And share more with us all experience together.. Glad you are discovering him now.. Much love for Stevie and double trouble, and passionate gifts (for the world) of their music..

Beth, do glad you've taken on the evaluation of Stevie's voice. So many just talk about his phenomenal guitar playing. Backstory on this particular gig at the El Mocambo in Toronto. He is playing with his band ,Double Trouble, and just before they went on stage, they always had a huddle. This time, Stevie told his road manager Cutter Brandenburg "Brace yourself. I'm not stoppin'."

At 1:32 is when stevie would have started singing this song in most performances, you can see him approaching the mic, but then the urge to strike another solo instead was too powerful and the solo itself took Stevie along for the ride that time haha Stevie live at El Mocambo will always be one of the most legendary performances of any musician ever. I have seen no finer example of a performing musician so flawlessly demonstrating a passionate and virtuous performance, and to see a vocal coach analyzing this is just too awesome haha. But foreal, almost every song he plays at Mocambo is the best live version of that song. If you like this check out Little Wing and Lenny. Thank you so much for evaluating one of my favorite things ever!

Thank you! 7:57 “You can’t be flat at any moment. It is an emotional tension point.” 9:37 “I wish I knew more about guitar so I could impart something” Me: I play guitar (Mediocre) and I already learned something about guitar from you. ⬆️ see above. 10:03 “It’s amazing how important dynamics are. People often think that their dynamic range is big. When actually it is in this small space. But… How quiet he went there. Absolutely tiny. You can do that vocally as well. 10:22 “I find it a shame on modern music that they compress it so that it is always within a certain range. It is one of the reasons that I prefer listening to live versions. Especially modern artists. Because their recorded versions you don’t really get to hear their dynamic range, their performance, their emotion. Because it is kind of produced out of it a lot of the time. “ Again thank you for this today Beth!
