I think Stevie was more technically proficient than Hendrix, but Hendrix was more the visionary and changed the way guitar is played forever and for that he's the GOAT
@@westpsmity yeah & no. Stevie Ray fucking Vaughan isn't a random dude in a guitar store playing a sub-par rendition of Texas Flood. Stevie Ray Vaughan was a visionary who absolutely elevated everything he touched, including Voodoo Chile & Little Wing. I don't care at all if you disagree, SRV was the better guitarist in every way. Jimi was disgustingly good, especially live, but SRV can not be touched by anyone else, alive or dead.
@@aircraftnut15 I could play Rude Mood cleaner than this when I was 12 years old. I'm sorry, but the bar SRV set is way higher than where this dude's ass is currently resting.
I love this!! SRV is my fav! Still listen to him all the time. His music will never get old to me. Always jamming to him. What a treasure, gone too soon. My husband actually met him and Rod Stewart in Hollywood Florida years ago. He said Stevie had a beer with him and they shot the shit. He said he was soo down to earth, a very humble kind person. Wish I could have met him. He's my guitar HERO!!
@@seanmccloskey7873 It's not anyone's fault if you're too stupid to understand "context"... If someone mistakenly calls you by your your girlfriend's ex's name... NOT a compliment... if someone refers to you as a living embodiment of one of the greatest at ANYTHING... It's not anything less than their version of saying you are worthy. NOBODY thinks it's SRV's actual son. It's not too late... Be smarter.
Doesn't anyone have any originality anymore? Play something that is only yours, instead of trying to be another artist 40 years ago. I'm sorry, but I get tired of hearing someone butchering a great song.
@@brianlanders8028: None of your business... 'I'm sorry' but he has a right to play Whatever He Wants! And fortunately, we don't all share your opinion either. He Sounds Great!!! :)
@@142horizon : Yeah, it is my business, because I hate listening to shit music from people that don't have any talent. Just because he's SRV's son doesn't mean a thing.
Thank you Stevie for leaving a piece of you on earth your son. Learning someday he might be a tear in your eye. He does play like you someday he might be a master! Let’s hope so!!
@@6ixstringsonfire12 Goths dress similar, kind of like Bluesmen, or metalheads. Doesnt mean much. If you listen to the majority of his playing, he covers other people too and wears things other blues artists wear. But you have no idea what they are.
He is NOT S.R.V.'S son. But l LOVE the fact that he is young and hopefully keeping his music alive for a new generation. I saw Stevie play at a small out door venue at Winter Island out door camp grounds in Salem Massachusetts. He took his guitar and spun it like a top while playing a ripping SOLO! Never seen anything like that before or after! This young man has a bright future! 😊
My wife saw him at the Saturday show. The crash happened after the Sunday show. I skied at Alpine Valley the next winter. Might have skied over SRV DNA.
That is a copy of SRV's famous guitar. Stevie broke the neck a little while before he died and after he died his brother had the original neck fixed and it has never been played since. Jimmy Vaughan has it put up. Looks a lot like it though
Close your eyes, and beside it being the legendary strat that it is (wondering if Jimmy let him play it since he's the present owner, or a meticulous custom rendition of it), and you'd swear that it was Stevie playing it. Kid even plays it with almost the same soul as Stevie with the expressions on his face. That guitar holds beautiful deep gut power and blues history's.
I don't know about SRV having any children but this dude's got it going on. I was at Stevie's last concert that fateful night in Alpine Valley Wisconsin and the Sky Cried that night along with all of us
I had a guitar lesson the next morning and my teacher was super bummed. I was young and didn't know much about Stevie until he died. So sad. Especially after he got cleaned up and was doing well.
Awesome. Steve Vai said after a show a guy said, “I’d do anything to be able to play like that.” Vai said, “Yeah? Would you practice twelve hours a day for twenty years?”
SRV is loved more and more as the years go by. The respect he's earned is absolutely unimaginable. I remember buying his cassette tapes and totally enjoying his videos, with my younger sisters, as a child in the 80s,
My favorite guitarist, with my favorite style of guitar, now has a signature set with my favorite, string company?! VINDICATION!!!! I was sponsored by them years ago, when I was still playing music in my old band, and these are still the best strings I have ever played on. Bright like Elixers, endurance and strength like D'Addario. I have a stack of custom sets now, of different gauges for different instruments, and I will pay for these every time. I think they are worth more than what they currently charge.
The saddest thing are these ignorant dipsh!ts who make these claims to seek attention for their 15 minutes of fame no matter how they get it even if it's being an imposter of an iconic legend like Stevie Ray Vaughan. WTF-OVER! "Get Your Mind Right"
@@Bella1neverknows670 Calm down, just because you're shouting doesn't change things. IDK who told you what, when or where but Stevie never had any children boy or girl, period.
Excellent! I met Stevie at Antoins’ on the Drag at Austin Texas. He was larger than life! You are blessed just to play his riffs. Keep it up whether or not you are his son.
In Wisconsin and Missed the Concert and have had DEEPEST of Regrets.... SRV a Legend, an Icon, and for so many Guitarists a Damn Great Mentor and Influence on how to PLAY a Damn Guitar... GRIP IT AND RIP IT BABY....Play it like you MEAN IT...
It's nice to have a new Stevie Ray Vaughn anyway whether he's his son or not. The super legends of the 60s, 70s, and 80s are the greatest to be preserved forever.
I remember watching him sing at a brewery in Greenville South Carolina when he was 18-ish excellent guitar player, fantastic voice, even at that young age!
Stevie Ray Vaughn had no children, just cause this young man has taken interest in the beautiful blues, does not mean you can lie to people for better ratings. RIP SRV!
Cause there's a bunch of ignorant dipsh!ts out there seeking their 15 minutes of fame no matter how they can get it. Even if you're an imposter claiming to be the son of an iconic legend like Stevie Ray Vaughan. WTF-OVER! IDK who it is but if it was Marcus King I'd say with certainty this video would of been taken down already or at the least the title changed. Marcus has to much respect for SRV & in himself to pull some BS like this no bout a doubt it! ++Peace & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Souls++
Keep at it young man your pops Boots will be hard to fill seeing he is was and will always be the absolute greatest of all time G.O.A.T hands down bar none
Awesome! Sooo glad I got to see,listen to you! ...I LOVED,your Dads ,AWESOME MUSIC !😍 HE WAS ,AND ALWAYS WILL BE ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITES! ❤May he rest in peace.✌️💞💖💞
@@Dakahrii if that’s the case, I didn’t know. I just listened to music. But I don’t know anything about wives and children. Oh well. Somebody puts out a video about his son and apparently I got duped.
Was lucky enough to grow up in Austin and enjoy the incredible music scene. Before SXSW and all the big venues. Hanging out with Cliff at Antones, catching after shows at the Cadillac Club or the best venue, the Dillo. Seeing Buddy Guy ir Johnny Winters at places like The Vulcan Gas Company. Catching gigs at Auditorium Shores. I was so blessed. My hometown is no longer weird.
I was shopping at Walmart and there was a tee shirt in the bargain section with a 3 piece band on it that looked exactly like SRV’s band with the likeness of him up front, with exact likeness of the clothing & hat he wore, and guitar he played. Except they were all skeletons. I played for years, doing countless gigs, in bars, casinos, parties, festivals, ect. And when I saw that shirt, the Lord said to me, That was you! Dead in trespasses and sins! Seeking after vain glory, dead while you lived, all for vanity! I purchased that shirt, cut out the picture and put in on my studio’s wall! To remind me of all the years I spent seeking vain glory, and the praise of the audience, when actually I was dead while I lived in it! I was living gig to gig, seeking the next high, but never being fulfilled! Always had to find a new way to fill my empty soul! But then I found the only thing that could fill it! Jesus Christ! And now I consider all of that life equal to the crap I left in the toilet! Sex, drugs, and rock & roll, are all lies, that promises fame, and fortune, or at least admiration. But deliver nothing but regret, and addiction, and a short lived worthless high! Turn to Jesus, and serve Gods Kingdom and true fulfillment, and true joy will be eternal!
I Feel for you, dude. Turn to the guy that is also technically his Dad? His dad kills him (technically, himself) to save us from... him Do you see why they tell you that you aren't allowed to question god? Plus you have to pay the guy telling you this? That is the definition of extortion sold as salvation. Look up both works Isn't suicide a Mortal Sin? So, who automatically went to Hell? Jesus? God? Both? Neither because they don't exist. You don't need faith in things that are real, yo. Rock and roll helps people every day. Religion never doesn't harm society. Look back in history, it has always been religious folks killing tons of people. Rock and roll groups don't have fan bases like that
I don’t understand why anyone would spend so much time, money, and energy on being someone they’re not. You know what is WAY more impressive to me? A beginner guitarist who is attempting to write their own material rather than copying someone else their whole life. Congratulations dude, you just achieved something that was already done better 40 years ago. He could tell us how it feels to be playing 1983’s hottest licks! And to further prove how pathetic it really is, he’s most likely playing a COVER of a SRV song that was COVERING Hendrix or Albert King who was covering Muddy Waters who was covering Robert Johnson who was covering…it goes on and on. Just think, if he were born 140 years ago he would’ve been right on the cutting edge.
@@Tyrannosaurine I agree but I gotta give it to the guy he done an amazing job but your right Stevie already done it first way better. I tell you what impressed me here recently is chicken picking style guitar playing in the 70', 80's, and 90's country music
People, this is a British kid who started playing and showing up in videos three years ago at this guitar shop in the UK- sixty sixty sounds. He loves SRV and emulates his style.
Sooo happy to see a young kid being talented in today's age ! Don't get fucking discouraged bro! I mean that from playing since I was a kid was well , just diff generation. Awesome on that genre of music as well!
One bit of advice I would offer this kid, because he can definitely play the guitar, but find your own identity, I think that will take you further and make people want to hear, who you are. And you can still pay tribute to the great SRV
