Stevie Is The Only Guy I Know Of Who Even THINKS To Arrange The Royalties From One Of HIS Songs To Go To The FAMILY Of The Guy That Inspired His Song! Such A CLASS Act!
@@basspro870 Absolutely but he wouldn't have admitted it if his life depended on it. I admire Jimmie but I've tried really hard to see his mojo and it just doesn't happen. He's damn good nut not great IMO.
2024 still watched, still admired, still respected, still adored. That says alot considering he's been gone almost as long as the man was alive. That's because the man is tge master.
He will always be remembered forever as one of the best, he never sold out, refused to compromise his integrity on being a real blues guitarist even though he could play along with anything. Singlehandedly resurged the genre into mainstream, so today you hear almost every player do his licks especially in the country genres
For those of you who don’t know. It is so incredibly hard to give an interview about history and influences and then just turn on the magic. Talking to an interviewer requires a part of the brain you don’t use when tucking into your guitar like Stevie did. I can sense the difficulty. It’s like blocking a channel you have open to do one or the other. Stevie did it with grace and kindness. One zone and one channel.
He was so talented and so dam beautiful that’s what shines so bright he was real and raw and it showed threw his music and when he talks he’s so real I couldn’t watch or see anything about him after he died it hurt to much knowing he wasn’t in the world rip beautiful Stevie you touched so many people with your heart and soul you are loved and missed ❤ he was so humble and that is so rare and beautiful and his love for his brother and others was so beautiful
Of all the interviews that I've seen of him, he's always humble. He shows respect to those before him that has touched his life. Through all the demons he battled he was always humble. Other than his great musical abilities, he kept to his humble roots. That's an extremely important lesson he has taught to all of us. RIP SRV
Watching him play and listening to his music.. you can see what an amazing talent he is! Watching an interview... you can see what a unique human being he truly was!!
Especially with blues. It has such a history,... I don't think it's something you can just walk into without having an awareness and appreciation for the history.
It is So nice to see all the beautiful words about Stephen 🎸 What a wonderful Human Being to Share The Universe With❤️ He will Live Forever We will Always Love You Mr. Guitar 🎸 Hurricane 🌹🙏🏼😘❤️
I think that at the root of his genius was his honesty and humility. He called it like he saw it, and played it like he heard it. And we loved it! RIP SRV. 🎸💔
I love Stevie Ray Vaughn so much. Such a unbelievable musician and a incredible human. I am a addict of drugs and alcohol and I understand that world. It is so fucked up he got clean and passed away. Life is a trip and I am so happy SRV is apart of my life. One day I hope to clean up.
I hope you do too. I was in active addiction for over 30 years and I’ve been clean now for 6 years. If you truly want it you can do it but do it for yourself!! Bless you and sending you strength and love
yep.. a little strange acting, probably been up a couple days..from coke and alcohol. but it looks like he's on acid or something else? lol RIP Stevie. you know on a good note.. he's still helping people get sober even after death! He's truly special.
I wish I could personally thank the woman interviewing him for asking the camera man to zoom in on his hand while playing. I could watch that for days on end.
I like the way he pauses and articulates his answers very thoughtfully. I watched all four parts here with interest. I love his guitar playing and the interviewer is charming as well, her voice is very attractive.
He was not clean yet that year, but the talent is overwhelming. So glad that he cleaned up completely a few years later which took full medical help for months then became the best clean guitarist at his peak as we remember him.
Stevie has such articulate and in depth answers that the interviewer totally ignores and doesn’t have responses. They just want exclusive shots of him playing material they can use
So Was Stevie!! He Was Very Strong, Brave & Determined To Dig In & Do The Work Required! He Was A 12-Step Brother & I Miss Him Dearly!! BLESS YOU, STEVIE! SOUL💞SOUL!😘
I wish I had known about him when I was younger. Would have seen him in concert. That was my dream after my brother introduced his music to me. God Bless their souls ❤️✌️
I pored svega Stewe je ovde iskren,isti kao što će biti posle svega...samo mnogo srećniji rekao bih.. što je i govorio kasnije jer je bio čistog i bistrog uma ...ali za sviranje sve jedno uvek genijalan .. Stewe je bio najbolji...divan,dobrica...volimo te Stewe! Počivaj u miru ...
I know he's super hammered here but man what a sweet pleasant smile @ 14:14 :) he is missed dearly. Such a humble person so much fun to hear all his interviews. My fingers are itching to play guitar after seeing him namedrop all those blues players. Just the utterance of Texas blues and all those players evokes such a great feeling. true blazing guitar madness is all about the heart and soul.
The slow playing around the eight minute mark. I really liked that. Slow blues makes me like the blues. For me, a little blues a long way. Stevie Ray is so respectful of those who went before him.
SRV..is so humble..this interview is nice to see him play up close in doing these solos..but Imo..the interviewer wasn't shy about asking him to do guitar solos..slightly irritating just seemed just a bit stepping out lines here..could have asked more in depth questions...!!!! SRV..May be gone but not forgotten 🙏!!!!
Steve did his best here & I'm sure he would have rather been elsewhere but when your going to the top you got do these silly interviews which i think he's kind of like, what you want me to do it over again !!! No wonder he was drinking whiskey & a bit stoned . I was surprised one guy he was good friends with & grew up with was Rocky Athas one of Texas best players . They went to school together & played together during their younger days . Steve never mentions him as one of the great local Texas Blues players. Pretty sure he was glad when this interview was over. Also as he keeps mentioning Jessie I assume he's talking the the late Jesse Ed Davis but the gal has no clue & never asks him about him. We know he was not a Texan but the man was an icon even in his early days. A good interview just because she lets Stevie tell it like it is.
Every time I play with my 3 friends and I get to a good mix of drugs and alcohol, I'm not saying that substance abuse makes you a great guitar player, but I can say every time I'm upset by my whole life including while I play some of his pieces I don't just hear my guitar and in my band there are only 4 of us and I'm the only guitarist, but having said that it's as if I were not alone playing and he was there with me, one day I hope to clean myself up and become better, by expensive guitarist
Stevie is so passionate about his influences and their stories, that he loves to talk about it. All that woman wants is get good interview bits😂 She’s getting a little frustrated at the end
This is right before he went into rehab. The 1/4 ounce of cocaine and quart of crown royal were definitely taking a tole. Sounds pretty drunk in this video
Listen to all of these fan boy normies”ong his eyes.” Aren’t you embarrassed to talk like that? Dude, he’s slurring his words, lol. He’s probably hammered.
