Couldn't click fast enough🎸🎶💯. Awesome reaction once more‼️. Stevie actually met Jeff when Jeff was only 19 and helped expose and promote him. Nothing but mad respect between these two, playing their hearts and souls out of love for the music. If you want to have a high energy blast from Stevie Ray, check out his opening from Daytona Beach Florida 1987. He plays Love Struck Baby(an SRV original) and Rude Mood combined. He plays behind his head while dancing a jig and simply stuns us with how much fun he is having. The video isn't the highest quality but audio is great and is a must see🎸🎶‼️. Thanks as always✌️❣️
I'm certain I'm not the only one who's going to tell you this, but it was Stevie Ray Vaughan who discovered Jeff Healey in the first place. Greatness recognizes greatness. I'm just glad this video exists so we could see them together
I saw them both perform august 26th 1990, (night 1 of the alpine valley concert, Stevie died after night 2.) Best concert lineup I've ever seen. Robert cray and the Memphis Horns, followed by Stevie ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, then Eric Clapton and halfway through Clapton's set the lights went out. When they came back on Jeff Healy was sitting on stage and played the rest of the set with Clapton. Best concert ever! (Hearing the news about the helicopter crash 2 days later was devastating. R.i.p SRV)
See Aileen!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE, the way you LOVE LOVE LOVE, the MUSIC!! It brings something out of you that really separates you from other reaction channels. And your SMILE OMGOSH Aileen, your smile makes every song you react to a joyous occasion. From a person who has lived through things that No Other Human should have to endure, just a simple beautiful smile, can make that persons day. And that’s what you have done for me today. So thank you very much!! Jeff Healy’s “ See The Light” will BLOW YOUR MIND! As a blind musician, he’s a musical prodigy.
They definitely brought out the best in each other with this song performance! 2 greats that are revered and missed, especiall by us guitarists who were totally in awe of them! Bravo for your enthusiasm as you explore all these classics!
Kudos to two of the absolute greats in one room and the respect and love shown each other. And you too Aileen. We can feel your enjoyment and passion. Spiritual isn't it? Beautiful.
Both were gone too soon, but not before leaving their mark on the music scene. Such talent! Glad we have video clips like this to preserve their legacy.
SRV was a fantastic guitarist and Jeff Healey was the best blind guitarist that ever lived in my opinion. Heaven is a better place because of these two.
I knew you'd love this performance.! Two of the greatest ever! Jeff's ability to play like he did was incredible. To see him jump up and shred like he did, literally playing/holding it simultaneously, because he had no strap, amazes me every single time! Thank you so much for doing this performance! 😘💕🎸
Ok, since you asked... SRV twice in Sacramento, CA: 1st x Sac Comm Center, 2nd x ARCO Arena - he "opened up" for Jeff Beck that night. Saw Jeff Healy twice in Pittsburgh, PA: Opening for Bonnie Raitt during an outdoor show and, later that night (or maybe the next night), in a nightclub he was the "surprise" guest for Colin James - the best $1 I ever spent!
We all know about SRV, but did you know that Jeff Healy was in the movie "Roadhouse" with Patrick Swayze. Theres another Blues Duo that is fantastic as well. Joe Bonamassa w/ Eric Gales, there are a bunch of their videos on RU-vid. When these 2 get together they battle back and forth, trying to out do each other, My favorite is the Live version of "I Want my Crown"! Both Joe and Eric are at the top of the Guitar world! R.I.P. Jeff and SRV!
I just don’t know what’s better to get me into the Holiday Spirit Aileen, watching these 2 IMMORTAL GENIUS’S play!!!???…. Or watching you react to them!! So I didn’t comment last 3 times I RE-WATCHED, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU. Another really tough year behind us, and another one coming. We always have 2 children’s seats missing every year. My grandson would have been 6 on Match 7th. And we lost our oldest daughter Tiffeny in 2017. She was 34💙🙏So from my heart, to yours, Sincerely Love You To This Moon!! Chris and Toni Stone. Billings Montana💙🙏💙
Great to see your reaction/analysis to this video. I watched your "Texas Flood" reaction and smiled as you tried to process what you'd just heard and seen. And I would say you weren't posing for the camera or giving us a fake reaction; it was genuine all the way! You were truly stunned by SRV's intensity and skill, and it showed. I appreciate the honesty and lack of hype. I have just subscribed.
I was at CBS Records years ago meeting with someone, the floor was open with tons of cubicles and I was in an office on one side with the door open. Out of the elevators on the other side comes Stevie Ray Vaughan, wander around the floor flirting with the secretaries, absolutely plastered drunk. The guy I was meeting with holds my record up and yells at Stevie, "Hey Stevie, check it out!". Stevie glances over, then gets distracted by another secretary and eventually stumbles back to the elevator and leaves. That's my not-so-eventful Stevie Ray Vaughan story.
Stevie starts out good but notice when Jeff takes over he starts tearing it up Stevie goes wow and then he turns it up and they riffing off each other!🔥👍
Stevie Ray Vaughn is my favorite guitarist of all time but Jeff was a monster too. My favorite part of this video, if you watch close...there is a moment just after Jeff jumps up during his solo that Stevie looks over and looks shocked and almost confused about Jeff's solo. It was like he couldn't believe how good Jeff was! Jeff stole the spotlight on this performance in my opinion. Absolute Legends!
They have both left us to play in Heavens band! Both too young to be taken from us! I can only imagine what they would be playing today and how great it would no doubt be!
You should check out some footage from some of Eric Clapton’s Guitar Festivals. Sometimes there are as many as six or eight of the best blues and rock guitarists in the world on stage and playing together.🇺🇸🇨🇱🤘🏻😎
Stevie always loved playing with the greats, and sharing the stage, he never hogged it, or tried to outdo the other, he was always extremely humble in that way.
Just loved this reaction! At the beginning when Stevie is playing rhythm, the cool lines in background are coming from Jeff! They were good friends & you nailed it...They were not 'competing' but jammin' & having fun. I honestly think that Jeff was only Player who could keep up with Stevie
You can not go wrong with Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healy!!! Little Sister is the perfect song for them to play together!! SRVs voice is Awesome! I am so glad you are continuing to listen to such Great Artists! May the Rock gods bless you! More Power to you and good vibes always! Luv ya Aileen ❤️💛
Aileen, we're so thoroughly enjoying your reactions. You talk about SRV and Jeff playing with so much emotion and passion but so are your responses. So many other reactors seem to be hamming it up on purpose and it makes me wonder how sincerely they're liking what they're reacting to but yours are so obviously real and sincere. You're bona fide! Keep 'em coming.
As an older classic rock lover, I usually come in to see your reactions to classics I love. Someone should have been recording me, because while very familiar with both amazing players (and a player myself) I NEVER saw this performance and my mouth was open in awe for the duration. RIP both absolute LEGENDS.
I saw Jeff in Germany. It was a very small theater that held maybe 300 people . The 6 of us were standing front stage, off to the left, right in front and kinda to the side of where Jeff was sitting. German youths don't express themselves quite like us Americans, especially us American soldiers in the U.S. Army!! After every song, we would hoot and holler and whistle etc... After about 4 or so songs, Jeff would finish the song then thank the audience, like he did after every song, then he turned and pointed right at us and said,"Now these guys over here," pointing at us, "I'm going to say without a doubt, are from America, probably servicemen. Right?" , man, we went off!! One would think we all won the lottery the way we were jumping around, acting just like the good ol, hard working, beer drinking American soldiers we were supposed to be! That was a great night. Boy, I'll tell ya...that white boy can play a guitar and sing!!
Hi Aileen, I love your music reactions! An amazing song to react to by Stevie Ray Vaughan is "Life without You" at the Capital Theatre, 1985. This one has alot of amazing things happening during the song that make it a must see.
Jeff Healey was a true Canadian legend who left us far too soon. You should check out his video of "See the Light", the man could play or his remarkable voice on "Angel Eyes". RIP Jeff and thanks for the memories and music....🙏
Plus Jeff is Canadian so was quite widely known in Canada. chatGPT: Yes, Jeff Healey was Canadian. Jeff Healey (1966-2008) was a highly talented and renowned Canadian musician, known for his skills as a guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter. He gained international recognition for his blues-rock style and unique guitar-playing technique. Jeff Healey was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and he made significant contributions to the music industry throughout his career.
One song by SRV you need to hear if you haven't yet is "Life Without You" at the Capitol Theater NJ! As much as You like SRV YOU'LL LOVE SRV EVEN MORE!!
Two more guitarists you should add to your list are Jeff Beck and Gary Moore, both are on par with Stevie Ray and Jeff Healey. Lovely reaction again, you are so excitable when you get into your reactions ;)

May I suggest… if you love really good instrumentals…. That you check out Charlie Daniel’s Band “The Devil went down to Georgia” Charlie was active I the 70’s and 80’s… died in 2000 I think. Took “😢Country” to a whole new level with an instrument that was rarely used. Commonly known as a “violin”, in Western and blue Grass terms it is referred to as a “fiddle” This song will blow you away😢
Hey there pretty lady, I saw it was your video and I had to click on it. PLUS it is Stevie and Jeff. It is unbelievable how good Jeff was. Vision impairment be damned...... He is in the movie "Roadhouse". I hope you are well............. I see you have your horny headphones on again!! Hey pretty lady talent is TALENT. You cannot fake it. It is there OR it is NOT. One or the other. I had never seen Jeff play standing.... So thank you for this!!!! You young lady are so special.... These two were ROCK giants AND their guitars were a part of them!! GREAT........ Thank you pretty girl......
I will NEVER understand all the hype around Vaughn sorry. When you grow up with ACTUAL blues legends like Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, Muddy Watters and Jimi Hendrix then I'm sorry but SRV is just another pretty good blues player. Even here the guy was blown off stage by the inimitable Jeff Healey. To be totally and utterly upstaged by a BLIND guitarist says it all really. I have genuinely seen better blues men in my local pub than SRV.
Another great guitar virtuoso to check out is Joe Bonamassa, check out the skng "Woke up Dreaming" live to the Royal Albert Hall, also the song "If Heartaches Were Nickels" live from the New Day Yesterday concert is f**king amazing, during that particular concert Joe was actually borrowing Eric Clayton's main Fender Strat "Blackie" that Clapton pieced together through his career from other guitars. So that should tell you how good Bonamassa is that Eric Clapton was willing to loan him his MAIN guitar for a concert
