@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...

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."

Chaparelle last night at Music Hall Williamsburg Brooklyn —- cool show and the bass players bibs were pretty trippy.

A pretty ambitious song to try and cover,and they do a really credible version.Their overall sound reminded me of another band called The We 5. @SKT

Only got into Fuzz recently and I think they're pretty cool.
They also did a nice cover of '21st Century Schizoid Man'.

[SKT]

@Jett129 that’s great, thanks for posting. Iove Jeff breaking up the fight at the beginning, funny

[Jett129]

A couple of F-Bombs in this one. A really great groove.

@Jett129 I really like Hank III, he has so much of his granddad... I was lucky to see him live the one time he came over to Europe, in the early 2000s.

[Jett129]

@tody That was great,Thanks!

@endo Fuzz is great, as is most of Ty Segall’s stuff. If you haven’t already, check out his punk project Gøggs. Love it…
