Texas Flood at El Mocombo will blow her mind.

You have to watch "Texas Flood" live, you will lose your mind. RIP SRV

My father introduced me to the blues by showing me Stevie on Austin City Limits. I was probably 8 at the time. He told me to come in the living room, then he smiled at me and said "Sit down son, you're gonna want to see this." One of my favorite memories of my dad.

I love to see the younger generation discover the music of my generation. Gives me hope.

Please show her Texas Flood (Live at the El Mocambo). When I saw it for the first time in blew my mind.

Some folks don't realize how great he really was. He literally feels the music through his fingers, half the time if you watch he plays with his eyes closed.

Welcome to the wonderful, amazing world of the blues guitar and the amazing music of Stevie Ray Vaughan. The more you watch, the more you’ll be amazed. Keep digging into the world of SRV, you won’t be sorry. Stay Cool 😎 and… \m/ Stay Metal \m/

Texas Flood live at El Macombo is one she'll love. And Mary Had a Little Lamb. Jim

Texas Flood live at the El Mocambo for sure

Do Texas Flood live, her mind will be blown.

Now that Alexis has lost her Vaughanginity, Texas Flood live at El Mocambo must be next! This tune is good but Texas Flood is the best video of any of his performances!

I was at Stevie Ray Vaughn's last concert the night his helicopter crashed after the show at Alpine Valley, Wisconsin August 26th 1990. The fog was so bad that we stopped on the way home and got a hotel room. The lineup was SRV, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray and Buddy Guy. RIP SRV!

BORN IN DALLAS LIVED IN AUSTIN AND WAS THE GREATEST GUITARIST WHO HAS EVER BEEN AND EVER WILL BE RIP SRV WE ALL MISS YOU

My mother's name was Joy so, she loved anything with Joy in it. There were few things she loved more than a great guitar player. The first time she ever saw Stevie Ray, this was the first song he did. It was instant love. This reminds me of her. RIP Mom and Stevie Ray.

I saw Stevie in L.A. on his last two tours, BB King opened up both shows. Amazing. Show her "Texas Flood" for a real blues experience!

SRV was my intro to the blues and I've been hooked ever since can't go wrong with SRV

1989 Albq NM... i worked security right in front of the stage under SRV, i keep looking over my shoulders to see him sing and jam out quite a few times, my boss came over and said 'hey! watch the crowed.' The next year we heard of the tragic accident.

When I watch great guitarists, I watch their hands. Been watching hands for 40 years. All of them. In particular, and this makes complete sense, the two people with the supplest hands are Stevie and Jimi. Sooooooooooo relaxed. Just effortless in movement; zero tension. Beautiful to watch and epic for the ear. Great post.

You have got to show her Texas Flood... Great reaction, as always!

I started playing guitar back in the mid 80s and SRV was one of my first guitar idols back then. I had been huge fans of many other guitarists like Clapton, Paige, Rhodes and Hendrix but SRV was one of the first guitarists that amazed me by his tone alone. There was so much power and energy in his tone that it sounded like he was channeling pure lightning from his strings to the amp. A great memory for me was that I got to see SRV live during his "In Step" album tour. Even better was that my best friend's older brother, who was friends with a number of people in the music industry, knew the guy running the sound for the concernt. He was able to get us back stage passes to meet Stevie. I wish I had some great story where I got to meet him and jam together but it was really just 20-30 people who got to line up, shake his hand and talk to him for a minute or so. Still, for a 17 year old kid who had been playing guitar for a few years at that point it was absolutely amazing to me. 😁

I was fortunate to have met Mr. Vaughn and the rest of Double Trouble in Old Orchard Beach Maine.Mr. Vaughn came off as ever so humble.

Never heard of him and now you'll never forget him

SRV had the absolute respect from the OG Blues guitarists. He could jam with the best of them

Love, Love, Love ❤SRV(RIP) I was blessed to see him couple of time's in concert and meet him and shake his spectacular, angelic, hand 😅 And tell him how much he was Loved by his fans❤ he was very happy, kind and humble, Beautiful soul and of course I told him how wonderful his voice was, because he was very self conscious about it 😅 but we all know how great it sounds ❤ amazing🎉and his guitar playing was off the chain!!!!😊So he knew he was Loved very much💯🥰 Thank you for jamming Stevie Ray,🤘🇺🇲🦾🎸🙏👍👍✌️🎧 Maybe you could jam🎶 Life without you? It's a great song 💯Love your channel and your reactions 👍🙏🎧🤘Rock on and Rock hard 🦾💯🙏✌️🤘📀❤😻🥰

Stevie learned to play guitar in an amazingly short period of time when he was still a teenager. You are right when you said it was "like breathing" to him.

STEVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best.

I'm anxious to see what Alexis thinks about the live performance of Texas Flood.... Blown away will be an understatement!

If we'd only had youtube back in the 80s, I wouldn't have taken so long to see how good SRV really was. I never saw him live but I remember when he died, in 1990 if I remember correctly. It wasn't until earlier this year I watched Texas Flood and I just couldn't believe it

great reaction to pride and joy. its nice to bring his music to a ' YOUNGSTER ' BB king called his guitar LUCILLE. stevie called his guitar LOVER BOY. stii considered top 5 blues guitarist of all time. his music transcends time 40 years later. R.I.P. SRV

SRV was a unique talent and revitalized the blues for a whole generation. You should listen to Texas Flood!

His playing is so effortless, it’s truly amazing.

SRV literally played HIS FINGER TIPS OFF....He would have to glue the tips back on with super glue....INSANE. I remember hearing on the radio, sitting at the James K. Polk Motel near Nashville when they announced his death.

I love the reaction Alexis and this was a great choice to break you in to SRV......I had the please of seeing Stevie shortly before he passed away at a concert on the west coast and it was mesmerizing to watch him play live.....he had soul flowing thru his veins and I have read he was one of the most unpretencious musicians around....it was painful to hear he passed away because he was a true legend...RIP SRV🎸❤

Stevie Ray Vaughan. the song Texas Flood .1983 at the El mocambo. Jaw-dropping.

"Mary had a little lamb" is one of my favorites.

I'm not surprised anymore when 'youngsters' never heard of SRV. First time hearing him...all caught up. 🎸👽. ☮️to all.

You should show her the brothers playing together on the double neck guitar

Anything from his Austin City Limits concert is fire! Recommend Tightrope Noone really reacts to it. SRV is the goat

Another great blues guitarist is Jeff Healey who had cancer as a small child and was blind his live version of “see the light” in 1988 is awesome. Became popular to all novice people when he was in Road House with Patrick Swayze.

Wanna blow her away? SRV Live at El Macambo... Texas flood. What he does with the guitar 3/4 through the song is nothing less then mesmerizing.

I can always count on SRV to give me goose bumps. Sipping a tasty whisky and listening\watching SRV , for me It's heaven.

I love how the Bass was noticed and seems to always get unnoticed. Shannon is a badass bassist

BADLANDS 🤘 DREAMS IN THE DARK...

Alexis would really enjoy hearing SRV's song, "Life Without You" live at the Capital Theater, Passaic, NJ.

❤❤❤

SRV was as talented as they get! I saw him with Joe Cocker a month before he passed away. What a show that I remember fondly.

What's crazy , he didn't want to sing just play. But when the female singer left he took over and KILLED IT !!

I had the pleasure of seeing SRV at a few different venues and was blown away every time. The first show (Grandstand seating at a racetrack) will always stand out though. The played Couldn't Stand The Weather with a thunderstorm filled with lightning developing in the distance behind the stage. Eerie and hauntingly beautiful.

Stevie made Oak Cliff TX proud my he never be forgetten.

Guitar wizardry!

He is one of the greats, when it comes to guitar players. Love SRV.

Can't ever go wrong with SRV & Double Trouble... love seeing Alexis get introduced for the first time to SRV!

Great teaser , to the Mind Blowing performances to come....please continue !!

Tightrope and Leave My Girl Alone from his 1989 Austin City Limits show are a must see!

I love SRV!!!! I was fortunate enough to see him live in Kalamazoo Michigan the day before he died.

My heart belongs to SRV ❤

It's a blues based shuffle. I think the lady's head's gonna explode when she sees him do TEXAS FLOOD (Live) at the El Mocambo.

He is one of the pinnacles due to his unique style. Check out a few other songs young lady you will love it!

Life without you, capitol theater NJ will touch her soul !

Another amazing guitarist of the era...blues-rock-jazz fusion...Eric Johnson, also from Texas

Fantastic Musician

First time i her life, she is hearing real music! welcome to the music!

Love this song!❤

Got to see him alive a couple months before he passed away. There are so many songs that really showcase his playing other than this one. Don't get me wrong it's a great song but Texas flood, 10 pan alley, one that nobody reviews Riviera Paradise, Lenny any of them is incredible

Not necessarily for a reaction - but if you like SRV - do yourself a favor and RU-vid his MTV Unplugged special. Watching this man play a 12 string guitar is like a religious experience. So so so great.

Believe it or not I got to go backstage at 3 concerts in 1984 ,1 in Davis CA,1 in Sacramento CA,& 1 in Chico CA 3 nights in a row with my first husband and his boss....... this was in Stevie's Dr*g days, but so freaking awesome ✌️

Not the song I would've picked as for many guitarists (myself included) say the hardest part of this song is the riff and licks while singing. The dynamics he uses and the ability to mute certain strings while letting notes ring through and changing constantly. Hybrid picking bends all while singing. I can play all of the notes in time. I can't sound anywhere near him and I've only heard maybe three guitarists sound like him. RIP my hero.

We saw Stevie open for the Who in the Astrodome, September 6, 1989. Pete Townsend came out right after SRV finished grabbed a mic and said, "I don't think I can follow that." And walked off. The Who of course did play. I just thought that was one heck of a compliment to SRV.

You can think of the Blues as a train chugging along telling you a story. That's why blues sounds the way it does.

Introduced all my friends to Stevie back in the 80s. Sadly never got to see him live. I was living in London when I heard the news of the crash. Love watching Alexis's facial expressions. Side note observation I got a laugh out of... New-generation Alexis is using Beats headphones, and Burch goes old school with his AKG. :). Love my AKGs, too.

Amazing my favorite guitar player. How about some love for Double Trouble backing him up great reaction.

The greatest guitarist of all time in my opinion

this was the 82 performance at Montreux Casino Jazz Festival ---- the audience booed him! They wanted jazz, he played blues. Legend has it: David Bowie was there and discovered him! The full Montreux concert was on youtube but got taken down

SRV was exceptional. I'd like to suggest you take a look at another exceptional blues player that doesn't get the attention that SRV gets, but who was a groundbreaking legend of a guitarist, the late Rory Gallagher. Listen to the 1984 performance in Belfast of "I Wonder Who" for a sample of Rory's electric blues. For a different take, try listening to his acoustic version of "Out on the Western Plain". Or he and Bela Fleck performing "Walking Blues" in 1994 at Montreux in an impromptu set-neither artist had any idea they would be playing together and had never done so previously. You can feel the fun these two artists were having. Thanks!

The guitar change in the middle of "look at little sister" on Austin City Limits. Proves her is a guitar god.

Alexis the thing you like is called vibrato. (Vuh-bra-toe) Vibrato is used to add expression to vocal and instrumental music this is effect consists of a regular, pulsating change of pitch and the pulse rate. Similar to a tremolo effect on guitar.

Pride and Joy on Unplugged after he sobered up was awesome as well

First time I saw SRV in concert was warming up for BOSTON (weird billing). Never had heard of him and it was one of those "OMG, who is this guy?" moments. Lucky to have seen him 2 more times after that, the last time with his brother Jimmie's group The Fabulous Thunderbirds.

Dude! You have to show her Stevie's "Mary Had A Little Lamb" live in Austin. One o his most awesome performances.

I agree with some of the other people who have commented on this that you need to check out Texas Flood Live At The El Mocambo.

I'm excited for Alexis to hear early Van halen... Edward Van Halen G.O.A.T 🎸🎸👑👑

I’m stoked to see what y’all are bringing up for reactions. Just saw your Rush “Tom Sawyer” & this popped up! SRV is the greatest ever imo, just for the soul & ability he put into every single note…the guitar was part of him almost. Looking forward to seeing more of his work.

Another great video is the live version of Luchino Pavarotti and EricClapton and their version of “Holy Mother” live with East London choir

The Goat hands down

I saw Stevie Ray Vaughan the night before he died in Alpine Valley Wisconsin. It was Stevie, Jeff Healy and Eric Clapton. Concert price $20!

React to his song Look At Little Sister from Austin, Texas. You both WILL NOT be disappointed !!

He grew up in Oak Cliff ,a suburb of Dallas .

I can't believe it's been 30 years.

Riviera Paradise !!

"You better leave my little girl alone" would be amazing for her to see. As well as the unforgettable duo performance he did with Johnny Copeland (Blues Legend) called "Tin Pan Alley" many regard as one of the best Blues performances ever. Stevie's genuine and obvious respect for him is so humbly evident. And you can look very closely to see the amazement in Mr. Copeland's face during several of Stevie's ad-lib deep dive solos. Absolutely phenomenal performance. Where old school and next level meet, trade off and respect each other. As the famous quote states: "Good blues guitarist legends can play it in sentences...Stevie plays paragraphs." RIP Thank you for showing this wonderful young lady legendary music. She may also get a real kick out of his version of "Mary had a little lamb" which floors allot of the younger people. Liked, Subscribed, Bell hit. Wonderful YT Channel.

Texas flood-- ultimate Stevie!

Part of my holy trinity of greatest guitarists and I'm so sad I never saw him live when I had the chance. You gotta do "Voodoo Child" next. Maybe the greatest live guitar playing I've ever seen.

You need to check out Hey Little Sister. A string on his guitar, and he changed out his guitar without missing a beat, while still playing. And it's an awesome song. Another one gone way to soon.

There are a few guitarists who are identified as "game changers"... in that there is "before and after" when they became known. Page, Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Yessss 😂 we got a newby fixing to listen to SRV and I'm pretty confident wether she likes the song or not.... Steve's Guitar will get her either way 😂

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healey duetting on "Look at little Sister" is absolutely unbelievable.

Texas Flood Live. Please do it :)

Stevie Ray was a Martian. I remember exactly where I was when the news came over my car stereo about the helicopter crash on 8/27/90. such a huge talent lost that day.

SRV - greatly missed. Slow Texas blues - Ain’t Going to Give up on Love, Leave my Girl Alone, and Life without you at the Capital Theater are great songs to listen to understand the connection he had with Blues music. ❤🙏
