I am not familiar with SRV, but stumbled across this on youtube.

It's jaw dropping, if you are a Hendo fan.

I've seen Buddy Guy do a reasonable take on Jimi, but this is next level.

It's like Stevie knows exactly what the fuck Jimi played, then played it.

Master class.

Matt

Do you really not know who Stevie Ray Vaughan is?

Bridger

Hi @Matt, I know of Stevie, and I know he is name-checked as being a great guitarist, but don't know anything about him (other than he has a brother).

I have Riviera Paradise on a playlist, when listening to new audio gear, but that's about it. I am not familiar with his body of work.

I had not knowingly seen any live footage up until that youtube video.

All SRV listening or viewing recommendations are greatly received!

Matt

Well it sounds like you’re in for a pretty epic rabbit hole then. Enjoy.

@Bridger SRV - just start with his 1983 album release 'Texas Flood' and as @Matt says, just keep on going! Live at the El Mocambo is legendary, and thankfully the full set is available on YouTube!

@Bridger , I recommend youtube for Stevie's 2 visits to Austin City Limits, as well. The first one is in1983. The second, a year before his death, in 1989.

I was at Alpine Valley, the night of his final show. It was quite surreal hearing the news, the following morning...

SKT

One of the things I love about SRV are the near mythical stories about his guitar setup. He played these really heavy gauge string with incredibly high action. When you watch him play, his left hand attacks the fretboard with incredible force. I just think it’s cool because normal players couldn’t handle a set up like that.

Anyone biting on the new tame impala?

Im a tentative thumbs up but I think its a going to be a slow burner

@GraemeE Will hear him over the day and report.

NickD

@SKT Yep, he played 13s apparently, for comparison I play 9s.

Matt

@GraemeE I haven’t listened to it but I’ve heard it’s not great. I think the new Lemonheads is tomorrow. Excited for that.

Thanks for the tip @IH-GARY, I just watched the set.

I am pretty sure Stevie got that Strat pregnant during that gig. It was a beautiful thing.

Came across this when going down the rabbit hole @Matt

"Vaughan met Bowie at the 1982 Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland. After SRV's performance, Bowie was so impressed that he later said, “[He] completely floored me. I probably hadn't been so gung-ho about a guitar player since seeing Jeff Beck with his [pre-Yardbirds] band, the Tridents."
