So much soul in his playing. Many have imitated but none will compare to SRV. My all time favorite guitarist. I really wish he was still with us but thankfully his music will live on eternally
This is one of my favorite SRV songs about how love can turn to hate so fast! One day she loves you the next day she leaves you without a word. Cold Blooded! That’s a Cold shot alright! The Late Great SRV telling it like it is! RIP SRV
The coolest of cool. Great playing and his band is just superb. That Hammond, the bass, the measured and calm drummer. the whole package is just wild and marvellous. Unbeatable...
He did so many damn good songs, Life without you & this song here have always been 2 of my favorite, I haven't never seen any guitar player do a whole concert and never even watch his fingers, He played with so much soul and feeling.
lol God gave him the talent but then God either crashed his helicopter or did nothing to stop it. His playing was through practice and passion you utter goon. Don't discredit the THOUSAND OF HOURS he put in by saying it was "God given".
Just found this. I shake my head I miss his music so much. This is one of my favorites. I miss you SRV, so much. I learned to play guitar because of you.
Saw him at Summerfest in Milwaukee, I believe it was 1984. Before they got a lot of airplay. There were only about 2 thousand people. I was able to be in the front row!
This one, and the whole performance at the Capitol has such great quality sound the whole way through. Certainly captures him/them at some of their finest. Such an incredible loss of talent, still tough to think about what might have been...
It’s the way he does the chorus that’s so effin’ brilliant. He does 7 bars of 4, whereas most music would do 8. So it just gets right back into the original groove a bar earlier than you’re expecting and it just rocks to high heaven and is so effortless and damn cool.
I ALSO CRYED THE SECOND i herdit ON THE BOX I WAS 18 AT THE CROWBAR HOTEL IT WAS MY TOP 10 NIGHTMAIRS OF MY LIFE IM 49 AND I STILL WEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
First song i heard of stevie in 1984 and was hooked and went straight and bought the cassette couldnt stand the weather cassette and wore it out R.IP stevie taken way too soon your music means so much to many of us.
I remember hearing this the first time as a teenager in the 80s 1984 to be exact and being blown away like wow whats that brilliant it was like i was waiting for that sound my whole life up to that point after hearing bands at the time like bannana ramma and culture club stuff like that at the time not that theres anything wrong with those bands i mentioned i liked some of that stuff also but stevies playing was on another level just brilliant died wayyy to young i remember hearing that news august of 1990 and realy saddened R.I.P stevie you were brilliant.
only in the beginning,he was one the greatest strat men who ever lived,if leo fender knew men like stevie and others were coming along,he'd built them the same way,strats are perfect,STEVIE PROVED THAT
That would be the one and only Reese Wynan's or as Stevie called him, "Greazzy Wino" - its Tommy Shannon on base, and Chris "Whipper" Layton on drums... "Double Trouble"
I cried the day he pased, it was 4days, before my B.D. I still miss him so much,that i cry whenever i think of that day or hear something a song my husband and i both loved, sadly, hes gone also in sept. it will be 7yrs. He cried that day too.
Barbara hon, I was at Kelley Air Force Base that sad sad day - and I cried too - I was in shock, it felt like I had lost a member of my family, and San Antonio radio stations played Stevie & DT 24 hours. Stevie was and is my musical inspiration - I may play other stuff than the blues, but I always come back to it - and when I just want my quiet time, I grab a guitar and play some blues...... Soul to Soul
Barbara Dempsey I remember very well exactly where I was when I her the news of his death. It cut right to my soul. SRV was, in my opinion, the best guitar player who ever lived. His recordings mesmerize me to this day. I also lost my spouse this April and remember how we both used to listen to SRV together. Sad times indeed.
REESE'S FINGERS JUST BEND TO THE KEY!! HES AMAZING ! TO SAY THE LEAST, LOVE THE ORGAN!! REEZE HAD SRV BACK ALWAYS SAME AS DOUBLE TROUBLE LV U GUYS!! R.I.P. STEVIE NOW THATS THE TRUTH!!!! X
You gotta wonder how they were so tight and spot on yet basically improvised the breaks all while spaced right out of their minds on coke for about 10 years!
Saw him play live in Bangor Maine in the late 1980's and still one of the best shows I have ever seen in my life. SRV is the best guitar player I have seen play live. That night playing this song, he was playing it behind his back, and the E string broke, and he finished the song on the other 5 strings without a noticeable change in sound, and finished it behind his back no less. So pissed off that helicopter company would dare send an unlicensed pilot to fly anyone anywhere, but for him to die that way is just needless.
Stevie Ray Vaughn, And Double Trouble were the best blues rock n roll band ever in TEXAS, playing the blues. I wonder if Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix if they were alive today they would have a ball together playing blues and rock n roll together. what would the Blues sound like today if Stevie Ray Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix were still Alive TODAY? Big fan of both of them and there style of Blues and Rock N Roll. Cheers to the both of you. SRV AND JH as your music lives on through other blues bands in life. Sean Chilton Blues Man
This period when he was so pale and stretched and close to death, really, just gives me the cold chills up my spine. Icarus. Like the El Mocambo show, which probably has the best version of Texas Flood ever, maybe the best guitar playing ever. But what a cost. God rest his beautiful soul in peace.
In A flat. The two guitars are tuned down a semi so they are fingering in A natural, with some nice open strings to fall back on. Poor old Reese is actually playing that organ in A flat, which is an unusual blues/funk key to say the least. Wonderful.
Effortlessly cool, man. Like being cool was his natural state. He would have had to put in extra effort to not be cool, and the moment he stopped, he'd start being cool again.
Yeahhh great music still playing on xM radio 📻 25 The smoke 💨 is double in Minneapolis from drought fires in Canada 🇨🇦 it’s berry sad. We need blues abs rock n roll!!
Great song , cold shot was from the start ! A deal with a few of them that had been made and a scheme to play! Cold shot and couldn’t stand the weather,
To have a memory of seeing Steive is like having the memories of Jimi. Leaving the concert people where actually complaining he was too much Jimi. They had no idea what they just saw.
Yes they did. He never outgrew his influences. Albert and Jimi mostly. SRV was a GREAT guitar player....but too much LUCKS and not enough Melody...for me.
