BB King said: "playing the blues is like having to be black twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan missed on both counts, but I never noticed.”

By far the most melodic song Stevie ever wrote. Everytime I hear it feels like I'm just flowing on a cosmic highway. Wish this song got more love.

It’s really incomprehensible that someone who possesses so much life can cease to be.

I got to meet SRV in 1985 when my dad played backup guitar for the country (then country-rock) band Alabama. It was in a hole in the wall blues club in central Florida. He put his hat on my little head and told me I look like a "real rocker." It was so awesome as a kid, but I didn't realize how special it was until I was grown

Stevie died sober/cleaned up. Crash and he was out of here. Amazing how the good , in this case , the best die young. RIP

And now you know why this man was so loved. An imperfect man who learned a few things along the way and shared those lessons. Oh yeah, and he’s also the guitar GOAT.

I was lucky enough to be at this concert, if my mother knew where I was I would still be grounded. I was 15 taking a 117 mile bus ride to go to this concert...that message has stuck with me for over 37 years!

Those words Stevie spoke were from his heart. People compare him back and forth to other guitar greats, but it was Stevie's heart and soul, his genuine love for others that set him apart. You know it when you see it. And you see it here. R I P beautiful man.

Thank you for appreciating Stevie’s vocals. I guess people miss how well he sings because he’s the greatest guitar player of all time

SRV was as great a human being as he was a guitarist. I miss him dearly. He touches my soul every time. Great reaction, you get how great he is, musically and as a person. Rock on!!

A gift from the gods, if only for a moment.

"Making adjustments on stage" ... We call that GOAT swagger.

Fun fact about this video is he actually broke his tooth after using his teeth to play the guitar. He even starts looking for it on the ground and you can see him mouth to someone off stage “my tooth, gone!” 😂 yet he never stopped performing and kept it 100% real, raw and full of amazement. RIP to the GOAT.

Broke out his tooth and kept on playing. Such a kind soul he was; R.I.P. Stevie

SRV ~ 🎸🐐 THE goat of all goats Guitar change, behind the back, backward, one-handed, epic speech, with his teeth (you can see him mouth to someone that he lost a tooth)...legit goat status.

THE highest level. RIP G.O.A.T.

GOAT!!! Rest easy SRV

There's an interview of him on KZfaq where when asked about always giving his all when performing, he said it's because you never know when it may be your last... We are all so glad he did.

Stevie wrote this song about the death of a good friend. This friend actually built a guitar for him (a beautiful white one) which he usually uses to play this tribute song. For some reason, he started the song with another guitar, and then was not satisfied with the sound. He quickly switched guitars to the white one, and continued this magnificent performance.

Srv!! Truly awesome

SRV = THE G.O.A.T.

SRV gots soul man. Love listening to him.

Best guitar player of all time in my opinion, his version of little wing is the most amazing thing I've ever heard on guitar.

I absolutely adore the way he hits you with that beautiful message then proceeds to melt your face off with his awesomeness. That’s class y’all, pure class.

He lives forever still moving souls long after the earth exsperiance. So really in a way he lives forever.

❤SRV. RIP🌹

SRV. Truly amazing.

He was clean and sober here… it was a very, very, very hard road for him. Look how healthy he looks. Oh, I miss him so much. ❤

I could not have enjoyed this more.

Stevie and his guitar melded into one. This is a truly beautiful song and SRVs voice is so good in this one. When he started talking to the crowd, his message touched me so deeply, he was absolutely right. What a beautiful soul....Nice reaction!

Had the privilege of seeing this genius live a couple times the man put his heart and soul in every song. He left us way to soon. R.I.P. SRV

Only one word ... beautiful. Also, a beautiful soul no longer with us music lovers ... R.I.P.

One of the greatest guitar change out after popping a string that you will ever see!!!!!! He didn’t miss a beat and if you weren’t watching closely you can miss it!!!! Priceless!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!! 😎🍸🎸🎸🎸🎸

I was lucky enough to see him twice live before he passed. Each time was a religious experience. He is the GOAT IMHO.

He and his guitar were connected like a phone and Bluetooth! One together!!!

I miss your face, your voice and your fierce talent, kind Sir!💜🔥

Hurts my heart to know what we have missed when we lost him

Big Stevie Ray fan but for me the talent shines in the quiet moments. "Lenny" and "Rivera Paradise" are two of my favs.

SRV was a total genius, and a legend! May he Rest In Peace 🙏✌️ ps, love your reactions my friend!

Amazing how he breaks a string, looks to to his side, points to the guitar that he wants brought to him, then his guitar tech brings him the guitar and they change guitars mid stream of the song never missing a note or thing in his singing then when he gets a break in the vocals he goes and adjust the sound to the new guitar and just continues to blow everybody away!

👍😊❣️Love Stevie Ray!!!❣️

Such a heartfelt performance

"Leave my Girl Alone" Live is a great SRV performance no one reviews. His tone in that one is really amazing.

First time seeing this video. I remember the day he passed from this life to his next journey. He had an incredible talent and most importantly a kind and giving spirit.

Just imagine how it would be if he didn't pass away! The influence he could've made, the More I should say, on music!!

U will never forget this song

At 2:00 he motions to have another guitar 🎸 brought out. He used to do that if he didn't like the sound or couldn't tune it to his standard. He also used 13 gauge strings while most guitarist used 9 gauge. He used thicker size strings to accommodate his aggressive style of playing. Check out Look Little Sister and Texas Flood live. Amazes me how many people don't catch the guitar change.

This is such a timeless rendition of this song. You could have picked many but you probably chose the best.

AMEN SRV 💗

Saw him live when I was 15. I’ll never forget it. He was like a god to watch.

Ok,so now we talking about real music ,a one of s kind genius of guitar,music and style ❤️

I was absolutely overjoyed seeing you reacted to this song in particular. This was one of many songs that my brother and I chose to have played at our dad's funeral. It has taken everything I have to avoid crying. Especially since this is probably the best version of it I've ever heard. I'm so thrilled to keep seeing people my age and younger discover the greatness that was and still is SRV.

Stevie is so awesome its easy to forget how great Tommy, Chris and Reese are. Let’s hear it for Double Trouble! And Ceasar for the flawless guitar change! SRV rules.

I agree that Stevie Ray Vaughn was an amazing talent. I discovered him after his passing. What a loving message from Stevie in this performance.

My favorite SRV song. He breaks a tooth during this.

If I could own any of Steve's guitars, it'd be this one. The artwork on the back is beautiful too.

Stevie Hated Being Referred To As A "God"....He Was Exceeding Humble In His Talent & Celebrity....Stevie Was Greatly Gifted As A Musician But Also With A Special Soul A Huge Heart... I Miss Him To This Day! Soul💞Soul, Stevie💗😘

I knew you would appreciate this one. This is one of my favorite performances by Stevie. Awesome message on top of an awesome performance.

I had the honor to see SRV in 1984 in New Haven, CT from about 5 feet away and, of the 150 shows I’ve seen, this was my most favorite ever. People overuse the word “legend” but this one is deserved when you mention Stevie. Big ❤ for him still. RIP SRV

He broke a tooth here at the end playing with his teeth. One of his best performances..

So Cool! Thanks so much for a great reaction. SRV, there can be only one. So glad I caught 3 shows.

SRV is very special to me, I'm so glad you did this performance! keep up the great work Polo!

I live in the Dallas area and was fortunate as a young kid to see him numerous times. He died when I was in high school. Those shows I saw him at will always be a part of me and I thank my mom for taking me to these shows with her!!

Makes me feel great to see people discover srv 8t is truly a gift to exsperiance

SRV is my favorite guitarist, because he brings so much passion, soul and creativity through his instrument. His touch is incredible! i always play this song on the anniversary of my mom's passing. Such a beautiful song. You should check out his cover of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing. He turns a 2:20 epic song by Jimi into a 7 minute masterpiece! Truly one of my favorite covers of all time! If you want to check some amazing but less heralded guitarists, check out Jeff Healey and Eric Gales!

Lord have mercy, I think, even an out of tune note is just another note in his arsenal of blues perfection…. I swear he could take an out of tune guitar, make that thing, scream and cry with perfection, and we would all think it’s just absolutely normal.

It would be great to get a reaction for Albert King & SRV - Born Under A Bad Sign ( In Session).

I'm so thankful I got to see him play in one of his concerts before his tragic death

I saw him in 1988 in Baltimore. I was 13 and my parents had an extra ticket. He was opening for Jeff Beck. Stevie blew the roof off. Thanks for sharing.

If you like Stevie you should listen to his version of little wing !

Glad you brought up Stevie's singing. He's kind of like Joe Bonamassa, so amazing on the guitar that it's easy to miss how good of a singer he is. Love your reactions and sense of humor.

Choosing who the best Guitarist is, is like choosing your favorite fruit. Some like apples, some like oranges, and others may like pears. They're all good, just enjoy what each one brings to the table.

My man! thank you so much.

Loved the reaction Polo my brother. I am 65, SRV was here in my home town when I was in my rock heyday, and I didn't know about him. I watched in concert Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ronnie Montrose, Ted Nugent, ZZ Top, Peter Frampton, and others...but stupidly missed SRV. Now I own many of his DVD's and I cherish them. He is just flat out amazing. I urge you to research him on KZfaq. You will find that he doesn't just play the the chords, or notes, or whatever the hell they are, he catches strings on the backstroke, he moves strings with those strong fingers. He has very thick strings on his guitar because he can bend them with those super strong fingers. There is much more to his sound than meets the eye, and very few could even begin to play his custom guitars at all, let alone the way he does. Love your vids Polo - Mike in Albuquerque

So swaggy here, my favorite! But don't miss "Tin Pan Alley" with Johnny Copeland. It's amazing!

"He was completely locked in" Great comment. You nailed it perfectly

Been listening to Stevie for decades. Such a tragic loss.

7:50 We 🇺🇸 Could Use Some Stevie Ray Vaughan Today…Preaching On Stage 2 The Masses…We Only Live Once…Let’s ALL Live As Brothers & Sisters!!❤

II have never heard a guitar that screamed so much for love between all people!!!

I saw Stevie play at the Nassau coliseum in new York. I think he opened for Robert plant. He was amazing. He spoke of having made it through addiction and how great his life now was..it was reflected in his incredible playing. RIP

I've heard him do this song but first time seeing this clip. Really Awesome!

He is the Greatest Orator of 🎸🎸🎸🎸 RIP Stevie 🙏

My favorite SRV song 💜

Amazing performance, Stevie nearly died from drug and alcohol addiction a year after this concert. You can see how sluggish his performance is compared to how he played after he quit drugs. His concerts post 1986 are even more amazing.

Fabulous melodic use of feedback..a genius of tonal eloquence... Magnificent

SRV was amazing. Died too young would love to see the music he would be putting out today. Check out Texas flood by him if you haven’t already, you won’t be disappointed

Cudos to Rene Martinez, who made that guitar swap out so seamless.

This is top of the list for songs to be played at my funeral! RIP SRV

You will love his Little Wing video live at El Mocambo

Have always loved this song. What a great performance, by one of the all time great performers.

Another unbelievable guitarist to checkout is Jeff Healy As the years go by & can you see the light are two great ones to hear and especially see but remember he was completely blind too .

Thank you 💗

I had no idea that you had never reacted to this song . Most miss the guitar swap due to broken string and his broken tooth. Thank you for reacting to my all time favorite performance! ✌ ♥

The best…..

Incredible musician. Good guy

SRV was an amazing guitarist, but I'd love to hear your reaction to a very underappreciated guitarist (at least by the general public), the legendary Rory Gallagher. Held in high esteem by Brian May, Slash, Johnny Marr, Joe Bonamassa and many others, Rory was an master guitarist. Try checking out the ultra cool "Calling Card" from the 1977 Hammersmith Odeon performance or the hot "Do You Read Me?" form the 1979 Rock Goes to College performance. Those are both great introductions. Any pretty much anything from the 1974 Irish Tour is pretty spectacular as well.

I bet you love SRV even more after seeing this! Love how you get him.. Please react to: Ain't Gon Give Up On Love and Change It ..both live at The Capitol Theatre 💞✌️

4:21. Immediately gets SRV stank face. It just comes natural Edit: Best reaction to a piece of music I've seen. Subbed. Nicely done, sir.

I've been waiting for this one 👌
