And on the second day, he blessed Texas again with ZZ Top. And on the third day, he said, "Well, there will never be anything better than those two blessings, so I'll stop right now. No more blessings for the rest of the week, folks." Amen.
@@billy6742 You can definitely tell they are brothers or likely trained by the same person or same influences. Trademark licks and tone.... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EcXT1clXc04.html
Watching this reminds me of how much Stevie and Jimmie loved playing together, and it makes me very sad to think this was their last gig together (until the encore with Clapton, Robert Cray, and Buddy Guy on that horrible night at Alpine Valley just two months later).
@@raymondkaufmann3167 Whenever I watch him it strikes me that I have never seen a guitar player look so easy and natural. Nice to see your comment which makes sense of my observation
Jimmie is not underrated.. He's throughout an absolute world class guitar player. Although he never rose to the fame as his younger brother outside of the blues scene. No matter what Stevie always said his biggest influence was Jimmie.
Jimmie Vaughan deserves to be in RHOF TOO !!! TIME TO VOTE HIM IN !!!! SRV THE BADDIEST MF TO PLAY A GUITAR EVER !!!! BOTH BROTHERS JAMMING TOGETHER AAASSSOOOOMMMEEE !!!!
I was at this Jazz Fest waiting for Stevie to come on when my girlfriend got sick and we had to leave. Needless to say I never got another chance to see SRV play live. Biggest concert regret ever. RIP STEVIE! 🎸
LOL. I was there with a woman (not my girlfriend) and just before they came onstage, she announced she didn't like crowds(we'd been there for a while). I told her the Grandstand had plenty of AC and I'd meet her there, but I wasn't missing SRV.
As a female SRV fan, I would have never bailed on seeing him play live because of a crowd! I saw him play a memorable, fabulous concert in my hometown of Athens, Ohio in 1986.
Have seen so many incredible videos of Stevie and this is just simply yet another one. What a pleasure you are to discover Stevie and Jimmy Ray Vaughan!!!
I am speechless. Thank you for this. I have never seen this. I saw j once but I was too young to appreciate him properly at the time. I had older sisters ......,The Carpenters, Bread, A Murray, Helen Reddy Captain and tennille..Good artist, but...... I spent the night with a friend and her brother was older bell bottOms curly long blond hair music posters all over his attic room.. I recognized SRV and said who is that, I saw him at the amphitheater. He told me to cherish that because I witness a musical master. We played his record and he has been my favorite every since . My 6 year old twins granddaughters know who he is. Sorry just sparked some intense emotions for some reason. RIP SRV. Thanks for posting this. .
In 83' I saw Stevie, Albert, Bo, and Jimmy together and with their respective bands at the Delta Blues festival, It was without s doubt the greatest live music experience of my life.
To Jimmy Vaughn - you were a really good guitarist, and frankly I was a kinda good guitarist without the discipline to become better and never got any real notoriety as it should be, but Stevie was a truly great guitarist and vocalist so he got the notoriety he deserved and still does, and that is as it should be. Love to you all!
Jimmy Vaughn can play anything his brother Stevie can. He was in the Storm covering Cream, Hendrix, Jeff Beck, etc. He opened for Jimi Hendrix on his Texas dates. He gave the wah Jimi gave him to Stevie. I held it in my hands back in '85 Watch the show on the Riverboat President where Double Trouble and the T-Birds play together. They trade solos until you can't tell who it is It starts with them playing the double neck Strat Listen to the song Brothers on Family Style They trade solos by tossing the same Strat back and forth!
It's incredible how their way of playing is in interaction. SRV knew that as the Falily style project started from him. Together they were the strenght and to separate and compare them is absurd. We are talking about their music, not about two puppets.
what could have been......... was lucky enough to see SRV on tour with the T Birds and Jimmie and Stevie played the encore. Great stuff, Indiana University
SRV was a great guitar slinger who exuded style through his fashion, his movements & most importantly, his magic fingertips, able to make the hardest gauge strings bend & contort like they were nothing. Jimmy was a good player, but his style was more restrained, i don't believe he could have played with the same fire & control of his little brother, but his brother was one of a kind which isn't a slight on Jimmy, very few could play like his brother.
Jimmy was/is good real good; his kid brother tho just up way up on a whole nother level - one of the 2-3 best blues rock guitarists ever. And maybe even higher than that.
