Stevie Ray Vaughan - Live 1984-08-25 - Third Stone From The Sun 

You will never hear surf music again.

Good luck trying this at guitar center

” Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, ladies and gentlemen! Great stuff! Now...next up we got...huh? They left? Oh well, I would’ve too. Good night folks!”

Good stuff, moral of the story, don't lend your guitar to Stevie.

I first saw Srevie in the summer of '83. I was fifth row, center. He played this for twenty minutes -- only the first few did he have his guitar around his neck. He leaned it against the two Vibro-Verbs and the two Super Reverbs and played above the nut, the springs in the body -- all the while pumping the vibrato arm. At one point, he flipped the stand-bys on and off -- and he came up with gunfire, I kid you not. I had read that Jimi would do that but when Stevie did it I was floored. Pick up switch in the middle, tone rolled off -- for the shaking and summer-saulting. Then, quite a bit of standing on the body, pulling up on the neck and vibrato arm and letting go -- bam!! Bam! He played the final theme fretting hand only, right arm over his eyes, throwing the guitar up and letting it slide down his left hand, to move positions. Unbelievable. Then, he attached the strap -- checked his tuning -- his B string was out a half percent. THAT might just be the most MIND-BLOWING of ALL!!!! Blessings

Jimi wrote some amazing tunes!

just fucking awesome. we'll not see the like again ...thank you jimi.. and thank you Stevie. now thats talent

I worked as Stevie's escort and bodyguard back in '84 and '85. He was a quaint fellow until he hit the stage!!!💙😎🤙

I fucking hate helicopters, for this man to go through all he did, and then die in a wreck just makes me sad to my core.. I know I miss you Stevie, I hope there is an afterlife where he is playing with all the greats.

SRV-- the only person I'll watch play a Jimi song

7:10 .... Strat neck durability test .... check!

6:58 Guitar tech hands Stevie a pick while No.1’s getting violated. Too funny!!!🤣

The bass player's the real MVP here.

That's one tough Fender Stratocaster. I would never do that to any of my guitars RIP Stevie.

Hendrix Showed God the Electric Guitar God gave us Stevie

In no way do I encourage anyone to ever take drugs because 99% of the time, it's going to fuck your life up, but with that being said, if you have never been freshly baked and listened to 3rd stone from the sun with headphones on, laying on your bed, you need to.

Stevie Ray RIP, when we lose an artist we all lose something and the heavens cry out in sympathy!

The star in this clip is the Strat. Aggressive and excessive use of that whammy bar and six minutes in those octaves are still in tune? WTF.

There are three main parts to this tune but wine you are SRV you can bypass that and just go crazy I guess

I got to jam with him right around this time.... BEST TIME OF MY LIFE!!!! I MISS HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!

Sweet. Thanks, Ryan, from an old SRV fan here deep in the heart of Texas (Austin). Rock on, brother.

This earth would never be the same without Stevie Ray , there is a big hole in the music world !

3:48 literally eating out his first wife ! alright stevie!

Stevie Ray Vaughan was 16 when Jimi Hendrix died. Can't begin to imagine if Hendrix and Ray Vaughan had lived to their 60s and they had had the opportunity of playing together...omg!

0:59 por la razon que llegaste aca, Estoy waton tururuturu...

SRV in a mariachi outfit.

Who else could even attempt this?

they both look at us thinking: they are really insane jim was terrible right. JIMI: Stevie, my guitar is down there ,would U give HER some LOVING if I cant? STEVIE: sure man, did U know that during WOODSTOCK your guitar ....and the ONE from Carlos SOUND the same? JIMI OH, C MON but its the truth!!!!!!

Stevie Ray voughan, um guitarrista excepcional conviveu ao lado de dois monstros da guitarra, eric clapton e jimi hendrix e com uma postura impagável criou e manteve seu estilo....

High volume on amp and experimentation with the volume knob on the Stratocaster are a good beginning to get these outer space tones.

Now little boys of 2024, try doing that with your fancy modern amp sims. (Well, there's no way I could anyway)😢

Third Stone From The Sun is my favorite Jimi Hendrix track, we have to remember that Jimi played the track in 1966, guitar players in 1966 hardly used the wammy bar effect so what Jimi did in that track was unusual, The Shadows used the wammy bar effect but they used it gently while Jimi used it very wildly, i saw on RU-vid Eric Jhonson covering this track from a live show in 2016, he did a fine cover but what Stevie Ray Vaughan did in his cover version from 1984 is the closest thing to the version of Jimi Hendrix, thanks for sharing.

Tommy Shannon must be so bored with that baseline.

Besides being somewhat in awe, I come away from this with great sympathy for Number One.

DONT TRY THAT WITH A LES PAUL SNAP GOES THE NECK

Stevie And Jimi must be blowing the Heavens Apart !

I hope Sony Music will release all of this show on DVD Video with extras. Peace.

Amazing! Stevie in just a few minutes shows you how Hendrix got that sound.

Is this in the E shape from the CAGED system ? Tabs ....No tabs ? I think there was a triad in there somewhere......I'll go back and look.

He didnt play it right ...but what is right...hendrix played it in the studio...so did randy hansen...so ...i really like stevies version.I play both versions live...

SRV had an infactuation with Jimi Hendrix, which is good to see his proven person of influence.

that poor fucking bassist! lol

Play the Lotta Hendrix stuff.Think he almost wanted to be hendrix. SRV was a super blues guitarist. I saw him. Just hendrix was a true inventor revolutionary genius. It was hendrick's mind. People always be able to play Better than Hendrix, but no one will have his I. Deas and creativity.

And blackmore said this guy wasn't that good 😮😮😮

3:50 his strat needed four spring for that string gauge... How many spring has a regular strat?

This is creativity and performance at maximum stage.

Anyone who plays the basslines until the end of the song. I salute y'all.

Why is he doing that with his guitar?? Can someone explain?

SRV - Third Stone from the Sun 1984, Germany

Another copycat Beatles song, when will it end

My goal as a guitar player is to play this note for note

bassist sued Vaughn for employer neglect caused Repetitive motion Syndrome, carpel tunnel syndrome in his wrists, after Vaughn did 20 minute versions of this mess "zzzzzz" 5 nights in a row.. Bassist said. "fuck this noise" and also asked for additional damages for pain and suffering caused by being bored out his fucking head, playing that fucking riff for 20 minutes. Judge was a Clapton fan, and ruled against Vaughn.

WHERE IN THE FUCK IS JIMI HENDRIX,WHAT HAPPENED

How does Stevie's guitar survive?

My favorite guitarist, after Hendrix!

piknik country morogoro

Es un placer escuchar una y otra vez a este genio de las seis cuerdas, donde estés, con Hendrix, seguiréis regalando estos momentos mágicos.

Little Lord Fauntilvaughan

7:12 - 7:17 that part scares me. I'm to afraid to do that to my guitar :(

Rene Martinez back stage like 😳😵

Drugs are bad kids.

Truly a crying shame that the Lord saw fit to take him out so early, but he must have had a good reason, at least we still have all this great footage 😎👍🇺🇲🎸

They should have performed this song much more.. Only three have been filmed! El Mocambo, this and Tokyo..

When did I change from Stevie Ray Vaughan And Double Trouble to early-80s California punk band FEAR?

Stevie era un genio de la guitarra. Gracias por subir este concierto.

This is where he made it his jam.

Jimi would dig this

Heh. Eddie Van Who?

Jimi would be proud!

Awesome performance!! Hendrix has been such inspiration. SRV totally does him justice and establishes himself as a true heir.

Call Me crazy but I'm thinkin Jimi IS Channeling Himself thru Steve on this one..

I've done both and lived to tell the tale...

''There are Artists who wrest us up, & place us intoThemselves! These Two are the 'One's' who continue to wrest us up... Even beyond Their rests in peace.'' -gilpin 4618

Castles made of Sand at 0:44 love it!!!

Improv Master

best versions: srv, hillel slovak, hendrix

What a style biter

SRV turned Jimi's beautiful tune in to a muscle hard tune, bollocks to SRV! am I the only one that can see that SRV does not have the sensibilities of Jimi Hendrix, at best SRV is a great Blues player, Jimi was not a muscle guitar player, he was an adventurous gentle soul!!!

Total mastery of the axe..

00:59 estoy waton

Yes, Stevie is really good here trying to emulate Jimi....impossible.

Absolutely cool as f___ !

The one song from Are You Experienced that few guitarists try to cover.

Too fast!!

Killed mysigt Marshall playing with feedback. Crapp!

Sooooo on 🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️😜😜😳😳😳😳😘😘😘Stevie Ray Vaughan 💋💋💋💋

Wowee Zowie!! He just drives that guitar like he's in a Grand Prix race. Thanks Stevie

Only SRV knows how he did palm muting with that sleeve

The master at work.

He was a once in 100 year talent right up there with Hendrix. What I love about his style is that he was NOT with the times. He played old school blues but did it as good as anyone. One secret to his sound was using extremely thick strings, he sounds completely different than anyone.

nowhere near enough LSD being consumed in that crowd. Shame.

Man. His "#1 guitar" was probably worth more to some of his fans than to him.

Tommy Shannon and Noel Redding Best Bass players of all time, what a priviledge to be able to play for the Best Guitarists of all Time!!!

only SRV can pull off JIMI songs

classic Grunge long before noise bands of the 90s

Juan Martin del potro playing the drums!

Poor guitar. Haha but he looks like steve lukather.

Those people in the audience are very lucky individuals.

Can someone tell me how he squiels his guitar with just the whammy bar? And can you do that with a regular whammy bar?

...Stevie isn’t playing here...he’s channeling.
