SoundSharp Music Ltd Wade Sharp Stevie played multiple scales throughout his work, dont know if u know that or not.

@@wadesharp11 hit me up when u not drunk

Profound and I agree. Humbling to hear.

He was a cool Texan. Only Blue Staters are assholes like that.

@@RonaldReaganRocks1 i will try my best to give some good blues to this world ;D

@@RonaldReaganRocks1 Up here in Illinois we still got some of the nicest blues players in Chicago, just earlier at the blues fest a guy slipped in the mud and mid song the band stopped playing and hopped down to check on the guy.

@@RonaldReaganRocks1 You got that right!!

Le'Vin Moser give me some time. You’ll all see

He played on 13 size strings

Rip finger tips

Yes!

ikr he is cool in his own way and that makes him that much cooler

Me too

I would of given him my life just to know he was still making the world a better place than I ever could

I'd totally buy his music...that's the best I'm offering... I like me lol

Christian Brobst that’s quite a statement bro...

Truly is one of the greats

Roger that!

I agree man. The best!

Hell to the yeah baby. Love to all Stevie Ray fans out there b safe and happy.

I agree

And way too soon.

Maybe that's why GOD took him when HE did!

Soul Sister, peace to you, as well!

some people say God finds the perfect moment for all people, but for us humans, there is noo a good one.

So long ago now, it's unbelievable...

Gonna eat me some Texas dirt

Because it’s centrally located in the USA, cheap, not commercialized as Stevie says.

Stevie, such a kind, gentle, sweet guy...The saddest day ever, hearing on the radio, riding round Dallas, my home town, about such a tragic gut-wrenching, unbelievable, news flash about his death via chopper running smack into a mountainside in the cold, dense fog... just upon leaving a concert. Damn. How sad cannot be put into words... The loss was so palpable. Every windshield in the State of Texas on Every road, read RiP Stevie, Love, love, miss you, so much love the ppl showed. Complete total disbelief. Everyone came unhinged. Then his packed funeral at I-35 at the cemetery, where you'll always find guitar pics on his grave.. Total respect by all... His dad buried by him in the family plot.... Its been at least 10 yrs since i was there, then left Texas... STEVIE LOVED AUSTIN... AND BACK THEN IT WAS A SMALLER CAPITAL TOWN, NOT TOO BIG, LOTS OF MUSIC, Art, DRUNK SCENES, 6TH STREET BARS, EAST SIDE... STEVIE COULD BE AT PEACE OUT & ABOUT... BE HIMSELF. ★ BUT TODAY, AUSTIN IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE 70s, 80s, 90s... Extremely left wing politically in a conservative Republican Red State. He wouldn't recognize it today. Totally quatripled in size, population, traffic, a lot of big money, rich, way more greedy of a takeover. Oh its beautiful, yes. Its in Hill Country. Lakes, expensive huge homes, high taxes, its grown immensely since SRV passed. He'd really be blown away, maybe in a good way. NOT SURE... Mayne not. He certainly loved it when he moved there in 72... But it was smaller, little more private, cool, & he felt peace & serenity... He wad a shy, private cat.😂 Especially with his new wife & home at the lake... He was a man in a happy time & place. 🍀 It ended way too soon... ★ He was mesmerizing on stage! The one & only SRV, true Texan who loved his craft..... SRV & Double Trouble was (possibly most unlikely) to succeed into the higher realms of greatness, and they surely tore it up & lit a fire under that misconception, and turned this God willed, determined, man full of NO-STOPPING ENERGY, AND TO SEE HIM ON AUSTIN CITY LIMITS WAS MELLOW & MIND BLOWING! HE WAS THE GREATEST, IMO. I never tripped while watching him live, but I might have enjoyed it.... You couldn't take your eyes off him... Men & Women. He was a star burning ever so brightly! WITH INFLUENCE FROM Jimi, Clapton, Muddy, Buddy Guy, & so much more, including his brother Jimmy & the Fabulous Texas Thunderbirds.... He soaked it all up as a youngster with the odds against him, and he proved to be the genius he didn't realize he was. He was MUSICAL, A GUITAR WILDMAN, & thank God he stayed out of political circles & controvery. He was smart like that. Like Elvis too... Carefully spoken. Yeah, I bet Stevie would be a bit heartbroken over the later disposition Austin became extremely left winged, in a Solid Red, Conservative, Bible Belt state I cant help what he'd feel about Austin now, but I have a feeling he'd be doing what he always did: played badass guitar, stayed in his beloved home on the lake with loved ones. He loved his surroundings, and kept his political opinions to himself, and grew larger than life cause he was solid in his craft. I think he was an angel sent from heaven to spread love, peace, intelligent talks, & hopefully been in true love/happiness/content & maybe had a few Stevie Jrs, or otherwise. The sky was his limit. He was almost too good, too kind, too loving, too unselfish, too good for this world, that's ever growing out of control. Just like Jimi Hendrix. Ahead of your time baby!! Im glad I seen him, met him, loved his persona, smile, laugh, and Felt such awe for him while it lasted....💞💔💕💗💛💚🤍💙💜💖 RiP with your soul hanging out with Jesus. I know you were saved & took Jesus as your saviour!! God knows what's going down. Stevie was in the right place at the right time, even on his last night, cause he's a son of the Most High God. Amen. Love always, you Oak Cliff Miracle. Cant wait to see you in the spirit world. What a pleasant sight. RiP my buddy Stevie... 🌷🌳🌹🌿

So true, so true

iron life Yes , well said

He talking about his brother being the biggest Texas guitar influence is everything for me.

Isn't that nice & refreshing, a lost virtue in todays artists!

@@theoincontridetoledo0112 He Just WORSHIPPEDC& ADORED Jimmie! I'm SO Glad For The Rare Times They Got To Tour Live & Record Together - You Can FEEL The LOVE There - & The Raw TALENT Is Just SICK!!!😲...🎸🎶🎤....😁😍😉

@jemjean100 Sounds like typical brothers LOL.

I lived in Jax in the early '90s. Jimmy Ray and DT played Baymeadows. A lot.

It's never too late to turn it all around.

He staryed working wit lighter gauge actually. His tech was talking about it on rick beato. His hands would get worn out playing night after night. He was playing 10s when he passed. Most the greats use 7s and 8s believe or not.

He tuned down to Eb, and eventually settled on 10s, but for sure he could bend those 13s in his prime. And still be breaking them!

@@danielpittman889 No question on that, but I always like to think of what King said to Gibbins, why you trying so hard?

I know they are huge !!

I heard eerything's bigger in Texas 🙌

I Take Comfort In Knowing That Stevie Knew & Was Close To The Lord - As His Mother Martha Said After His Death - Stevie Wrote In A Journal About How He Felt He Was Being Guided, After Recovering From His Horrible Addictions, He Dedicated Himself Again To His Music & Spreading SO Much JOY - And His Message Of Hope & Sobriety....He Is SO Very Missed!💔🙏...S💞S❤😘

He didn't

Brother, i was thinking the exact same thing

Yep. All the 70s stuff is gone. I mean, now it's just a big city, like any other. No personality. No coolness. No uniqueness. It's done. Glad I was there when it was real.

There's a little attitude there

Steve

I dont find it heartbreaking. Its not as tho he is in real bad shape here

It really is heartbreaking cause I just discovered him this week.

@Thunder Bird I think its very sad that he died. Other than that his life up to then was well lived and Im glad about that. His issues w drugs was unfortunate. I misunderstood you. Sorry about that

@@mbsheisey enjoy

Dude fr! Such a great song by him along with many others. (Riviera Paradise in the evening)

Mary had a Little Lamb always brings a smile to my face. Even now thinking of the audacity and humour in it, not to mention the great guitar if course 😊

He was definitely one of a kind, one of the best ever🎶🎸

Lenny is a great song

There was a Fender Stratocaster he saw in a pawn shop he really wanted but he didn't have the money so his wife Lenny went to several of her friends and got $10 to $30 from each of them and bought the guitar for him, when she gave it too him he named it Lenny after her and sat at the foot of her bed that night and wrote the song Lenny for her. It really is a beautiful song.

He is HIGH ..... duh

YES, very nice, seemed like a bar guy too, great sense of humor. Makes me wish I was born in Texas. Great BarBQue, even though it can be found in a lot of places.

NO BS!!🙏

Looks more like he is intoxicated

Stevie's "Little Kid" Inside NEVER Missed An Opportunity To - Or CREATE An Opportunity - To PLAY - Like A Kid! It Shows In Everything He Did - SO FUN!!☺😊

Absolutely. .....

Jimmy James B.B ? You're talking about BB King ?

Beautiful soul indeed!

Who's Albert?

Keith Long oh yeah mate, ever since that post I have listened to a lot of Albert King. He has become one of my favorites.

Stevie Would LOVE This Story!! So Do I!!💞

@hopebrowning6300 ok and?

MEANING....🤔🤔🤔

GOD KNOWS EVERYONE'S SOUL!!!

Test or rest?!

he was a gem.

Every SRV video has someone saying the same kind of thing. Is there a musician whose loss still hurts after so many years? I think not. SRV was the best.

Steven Stainbrook Kurt Cobain

Brilliance like this will NEVER be witnessed again! Especially with the soulless, aka "flavor of the month" BULLSHIT, we are fed these days..😔

Fuck, Yeah!! God Wanted His Good Kid Back HOME!!

❤

Isn’t that lyrics from a Tool song?

He was the second coming

And I didn't graduate from fucking high school...

❤❤❤

He Had That Way About Him For Sure!

Facts. .....

Aaaww, very sweet. I really liked his attitude. He seemed very grateful also. RIP SRV.

Google User Grateful and graceful in manners.

@Frank Lopez Bruce Willis reminded me of Mickey Rourke when they were both young, too

More than you know.

He was beautiful

Yea the snake story was the best!

It's Horrifying To See Just How Addicted To & Dependant On Drinking (Likely Laced w/Cocaine😭) Stevie Was @ This Point In '85....Before He Finally - Thank God - Hit Bottom & SURVIVED!... In September Of '86 - Then Got Into Detox & A Good Rehab Program & Got Completely SOBER - & Sober He Remained Till He Left Us In Late August Of 1990🙏 What A Blessing!! Stevie's Recovery From That Level Of Substance Abuse Wasn't Likely...But God Had His Back & Stevie Was Willing, Ready & Worked HARD For It! His Sobriety Meant Everything To Him, As He Shared w/His Audience In Every Live Performance After Returning To The Road To Tour.... I Was Already In AA/12-Step Recovery When I Heard Stevie Tell This Story - The Last Time (Of Many) That I Saw Him Live - Just A Few Weeks Before That Horrible Crash & We Lost Him....But I Know It Meant Everything To Stevie To Share HIS Way-To-Close-To-Death Story With Everybody He Could & Try To Warn Them Not To Do Drugs...Because The Cost Was Too High & The Losses Too Great, & Too Permanent....This Was A Very GOOD & Caring Man - Aside Of The Incredible Talent & Personality He Was Blessed With - He TRUELY Was Awesome With People & Sincerely CARED About Them...Especially His Fans - He Didn't Want To See People Suffer Or Die Needlessly! I Sure Never Expected THAT Out Of An International Rock/Blues Superstar In The 1980's....BRAVO AGAIN, STEVIE!! I'M STILL PASSING ON YOUR STORY, STRENGTH & HOPE!!🙏 I HOPE FOLKS WILL KEEP LISTENING! GOD BLESS, LOVE YOU!❤SOUL💞SOUL!

Stevie Worked SO Hard For His Sobriety & Damn, He Really GOT IT..... WHY It IS The Way To Go... Better Than Anybody Else I Ever Heard - In An AA Meeting Or Out - And He Was Able To Articulate That For People @ His Live Shows & In Interviews! So - Your Getting Yourself Lost For Quite A While There In "The Chemicals", & Your "Breakdown" Was Not For Naught, Stevie!! GOD LOVE YA!!🙏🙏🙏💞

Well, he lit it up. Who the hell are we to tell SRV not to smoke it? 😁😁 (But I'm pretty sure if he was told not to do, he'd put no argument. Such a humble soul he was. Sweet soul. He's missed every single day...)

Stevie Quit Cigs Too When He Got Clean & Sober!🎉🎈🎊FUCKIN' A, STEVIE!! S💞S❤😘

It would have been 35 when you commented this in 2020. This interview was in 1985.

WELL SAID!👏👏

YES! Stevie Did This Everywhere He Played! STILL MISS YOU STEVIE!! SOUL💞SOUL!😘

🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍

Maybe after lil wayne

❤❤❤

I Hope Stevie Knew He Was Beautiful!❤

Absolutely. ......

the one benefit of him dying young... at least he didnt have to hear the trash now. His ears were to precious to let that damage them

Whiskey Voice - Oh Yeah! "Intelligently Friendly" - Yes!..."Those Hands"!..."That🎸Guitar"!....& That❤Heart!!! God Broke The Mold Indeed!! Stevie Was SO Unique - SO Special, SO Memorable! Soul💞Soul, Stevie!❤😘

Don't bother with his studio albums, if you want his real flavors stick to live and bootleg stuff. That's what really stunk when we lost him.. he used to play in hole-in-the - wall-bars, unannounced, or barely announced that's how I was introduced to him. And when he passed away, we were stuck with studio albums. It was tough to get live bootleg stuff back then - you had to get it out of Mexico or Europe. Having the internet let's us go back and see some of the concerts we heard on albums, that would not necessarily be heard in Austin the collaborations he did with Buddy Guy and dozens of top musicians... That's where he's come back for his older fans - we get his live stuff on KZfaq. His concerts far beyond any studio album. One night you'd hear a 10 minute version of Mary had a little lamb, or Superstition, the next time you'd see him play? Theyd jam on 1 of those songs for 45 minutes... Or go back and forth between those two songs We didn't "listen" to his live concerts - it went through us. Totally bypassed the ears, and went straight to your soul.

And He Made Look Good!!

Like it!!

Stevie Ray & DT DID NOT Disappoint!!! Wherever They Played!

Stevie Was SO Completely ON The Money With This Advice!! God🙏Bless Him! Soul💞Soul, Stevie!❤😘

I hear "Austin is one of the few places that's still like completely money". What does that even mean.

@@diwrnod that’s still not completely money

Also kinda flirting, no?

Yeah she didn't do a great job. There are so many questions to ask. She sucked. But I'm grateful to be able to watch it.
