caught a few seconds of this on live stream. Was a bit dismayed to see so many in the feed attacking SRV in an attempt to praise Hendrix. Like one cannot admit that both were some of the greatest guitarists of all time. Both innovators and bar raisers. Yeah, it's a cover of a great bit only SRV could pull it off so excellently

Some people don't realize the fact that you can praise one person without detracting another. Jimi was a huge influence on Stevie Ray. I don't think he was trying to 'one up' Jimi with this cover, but pay tribute to a great player. Personally, I like this version better, but still love the original. There's room in the world to love both.

I couldn't agree with you more. No one can deny the fact that Hendrix is one of the all-time great guitarists, but when all is said and done, Stevie Ray is right up there with the rest of the greats. Stevie never said that his cover was better than the original, nor would he ever think that. It was his tribute to a person he admired and looked up to, as Hendrix had been a great influence on him while he was learning to play the guitar. I was fortunate enough to have been able to meet him twice, here in Hawaii. He was such a humble and gentle soul. Credit should be given where credit is due, and Stevie Ray can stand tall and proud along side all the other great guitarist that we have lost over the years. We, all, just need to keep out minds open about all types of music and the musicians that make the music, be it original pieces or covers. Love to Brad and Lex for being open to listen to all these songs, artists and genres that they've never heard before. Love to the couch gang and remember to stay safe.

​​@@drlawson, if that was true then SRV wouldn't have died, but he did, as all humans do. SRV is an example of what you can accomplish in a hostile environment. His older brother BEAT... HIS... ASS when Stevie got cause playing his older brother Jimmie's guitar. SRV super-glued taken finger calluses back onto his fingers so he could keep playing through his soft, human hand tissue. He was just a man successfully recorded doing an unusual thing thing. He's not a god. He's just a man doing what he knew best, & we should all be so lucky. Everyone in the World, each person every 8 Billion folks, has a freakish ability, something that just suits them & so they do it & outperform 99% of the other Humans trying to do the same thing. He found his Thing. I haven't found mine outside of dancing in my particular style, but I know I have one & that's why I keep living my life & going out & doing things & meeting people.

@@thekeeler846 I think this is a bit unfair. SRV is a top tier guitar player, no doubt about that, but they had wildly different approaches. It will forever boggle my mind wondering what Jimi would have sounded like if he played for decades longer. I just think when we use the word "better" it by default is putting down one of them. They are simply different. Plus, with Jimi, he made the music cool. He was the artist I could safely go to when showing new people rock. The way he performed and carried himself on stage is unmatched. SRV is a more techincal Jimmy, if we really feel the need to compare. But more techincal doesn't mean better. If you really love and appreciate music, then you've realized greatness comes in MANY forms, and it sort of cheapens the experience if we feel like we have to compare people. Just appreciate the greatness, in whatever form. Plus, I don't understand why you felt the need to compare. lol The comment you responded to wasn't comparing them at all. Just giving some cool facts about the performance. I just think we'd all be better off if we didn't default into comparing people and just feel lucky we get to experience all of them.

Steve's cover of the Jimi Hendrix classic. He for asked Jimi's dad's permission to cover the song. His father admired Stevie's playing and was so honored that he came to him for his blessing, he gifted him Jimi's Wah wah pedal! That's the sound that Lex refers to at the beginning of the song! Don't know if that was Jimi's he was playing there, but that's what was used for the effect.

Actually, it's also SRV's string upward bend, slowly releasing the tension by lowering it and is that descending pitch you're hearing - which is a beast to do on strings of his heavy gauge and you can see him doing it with three fingers.

He's stepping on a "wah wah" pedal for the opening guitar line and he uses it throughout this performance. That specific pedal actually belonged to Jimi Hendrix. Fun fact. Although the specific noise you're referring to it think it's most likely him turning on and off a "stompbox" pedal, maybe overdrive or compressor. Tough to say without seeing his pedal board. Great video as always guys

So called "Tricks" are what you do when you've virtually perfected technique! Only Hendrix was close to Stevie in the use of feedback.Jimi is my 2nd favorite because of his vaunted innovation.EVH,another genius whose sound I KNOW after 2 notes! All those you mentioned are great,but I believe SRV's INCREDIBLE TECHNIQUE allowed him to experiment more & develope something like "Lenny",to me his most ingenious song.

@ThePresidentialTouch This was in his 3rd year of sobriety, October of 1989 (he went into rehab in September of 1986). Healthier & happier, clean & crisp. You can see it throughout this whole episode of Austin City Limits if you watch more of it. He was also on Austin City Limits in '86 before rehab, even that was great but you can tell the difference. I envy you getting to see him 4 times. I had plans to see him on his last tour but had to back out. Still regret it. I saw everyone from Hendrix to Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore to Joe Walsh, Brian May to Rory Gallagher. Breaks my heart that I missed out on Stevie.💙☮

Song originated from a Jam with Jimmy Hendrix, Steve Winwood and Jack Casady. Hendrix then went to the studio during a filming session with an ABC documentary on Hendrix to work on it some more with 2 other of his band member/musicians, Redding and Mitchell, while filming. So emphasis on the lyrics was probably secondary. Back then many bands like Hendrix, Cream, even Zeppelin liked jamming and see what comes from those jams and sometimes made songs out them. But the jams were the inspiration for the songs. And lot of good stuff came out of jams where a few musicians get together and have know idea what they're going to play. Love it.

I worked part time for a relatively small venue in Saginaw Michigan back in the 80's. I was a stage tech. I worked a lot of concerts with some big time acts coming in. We unloaded the gear from the trucks and helped the roadies set the stage up. Tore it all down and loaded it back up after the show was over. Often, we had some work to do during the show. On December 9, 1986 Stevie was there and my buddy and I were assigned to work "deck" on the stage while Stevie and the band were playing. We weren't very far away from him. He was amazing. I don't think he ever looked at the strings. Unforgettable.

He played with legendary blues artists and was to me the master of the Stratocaster. As far as playing with four limbs doing different things simultaneously, its called being a drummer. It took me an entire summer back in '73 listening to "Band on the Run" over and over again to get my limbs to move in separate beats. I wore out the chairs I used for practice cause apartment buildings in Queens are not soundproof studios. So it is possible but challenging. Oh but the satisfaction once it happens... So I began to listen to songs with drummers doing their thing, Carl Palmer of ELP, Ringo of course, Joe Morello of the Dave Brubeck Quartet, Jon Bonham of, well you know, Dave Grohl of Nirvana, etc. You guys are enjoyable to watch!!

That line Brad was curious about…”I didn’t mean to take up all your sweet time…” It’s from the original. Hendrix was referring to the solo he had just completed. At the time (1968 or thereabouts) soloing was a little less commonplace and Hendrix was kind of making a joke about it, while still making a comment about how little time we have for our lives. The next line, “If I don’t meet you no more in this world, I’ll see you on the next one, and don’t be late!” Was, sadly, forshadowing for both Jimi and Stevie.
