When it was over, B.B got back on stage and told the crowd “I don’t know about the rest of y’all, but I’m gonna sit back down and watch this young man play the rest of the show”! Yes, this really happened. I read the B.B King interview from an issue of Guitar 🎸 World magazine back in the 80’s.

After 25 years of watching this performance (had it on VHS back in the day) it still blows me to pieces. Everything is impossible, he can teleport his hand up and down the fretboard with no lag in time, and play a million variations on that pentatonic scale at bionic speed with NO MISTAKES. NO loss in quality when playing behind the back. No resting, no backing off from the intensity, always keeping you in suspense, and just destroying it in every way. Perfect blues singing just make it even more impossible.

My mom and dad were friends with Stevie before he "made it". They describe an exceptional guitar player who hated his voice and thought little of himself beyond playing guitar. My favorite story is the night Stevie and my mom were sitting outside on the curb between sets and he told my mom he'd just been recruited to play on Bowie's record and Stevie ever humble was terrified he wasn't good enough to even be in the room with Bowie. But listen to China Girl and tell me Stevie doesn't belong there. Stevie was a miracle. I'm so glad that if he had to die, he died sober.

Pardon me but Stevie Ray as ferocious as he is on stage was a gentle sweet man off stage. Made his band wait on bus while he signed every single autograph. He was drinking at 7 drugging early. became clean and sober in fall of 1986 and went to AA meetings with some recovering band members including Tomy Shannon base player and his best friend. Please listen to Life Without You written for friend and mentor Charley Wirz. He designed with Stevie a white guitat that was named after Charley who died of a Heart attack. He uses that guitar for that song only. There's another surprise in it. I cry every time I hear it. As much as I love the guitarist I love yhe man much more.

Jazz man, thats a matter of opinion. BUT!! I agree he is better than Clapton but there is only one GGOAT (Guitar Great Of All Time). Mr James (Jimi) Hendrix. The first ever. In fact SRV was heavily influenced by Mr Hendrix' guitar sins. Yes! guitar sin's. Jimis guitar skills were so SINFUL. SRV is with Jimi doing the Heaven circuit right now. Damned to eternal concerts in heaven. I can see them both jamming. All the other guitar players in heaven are in the audience coz they arent allowed to play in the presence of these two God's.

this is why I like to play music. I'm nowhere in the SRV league, but on occasion - I do find myself in that 'dream zone' while playing where you just lose yourself and become one with the guitar. It's a rare and unusual feeling, near indescribable.....wish everyone could feel that on occasion, and when watching SRV - you can see it happening (RIP SRV!)

"I took music theory for one year in high school and flunked all but one six-week period," he confides. "That's because I couldn't read music and the rest of the class was already eight or nine years into it. The teacher would sit down and hit a ten-fingered chord on the piano and you had to write all the notes down in about ten seconds. I just couldn't do it. It was more like math to me.” He adds, “A lot of the songs I write now … I don’t even know what key they're in. I have to ask somebody to find out. I can play it, I just can't name it. Jazz changes and all. But I don't know the names of what it is I’m doing.” ---SRV

Stevie used to REGULARLY play his guitar behind his back, like it was no big deal. That's one of the reasons why this man is a master of his instrument. Eric Clapton once said that Stevie was a "conduit of the blues," and that "the blues flowed through him. " Eric Clapton is no slouch in the blues department, so this is high praise. I loved watching your mind get blown. Keep up the brilliance. -

Lucky enough to see this man live at the "Gorge in George" just before he passed. Devastated when he died. I knew that day what all the rock fans of my parent's generation felt when Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens died. I always felt like SRV was the Achilles (Greek Hero) of the blues. It was like the gods had given him the option to live a long normal life but in obscurity or a short one but be greater than anyone else ever. And he chose to be great. Sadly with his passing a huge resurgence in blues-rock stalled and died. He was driving the rebirth in the genre that was crossing lines and influencing producers and performers around the world and dragging other great blues guitarists along for the ride. Gone way too soon.

If you went to see them in a venue from the early days, he'd just saddle up to the bar next to you like he was just one of the boys, and he was. He did that to me, and all I could say is WOW. That was an amazing set. He'd just laugh and say something, come on back tomorrow night when we get warmed up and laugh. BTW, they used to have a main singer for a while because Stevie didn't think he could sing well enough for the stage.

He was sweet, a bit shy, met him at a cafe in Austin, he invited me to see him play. He got my drinks and a cab home that night. He flirted a lot with me. ( I should have went home with him but oh no I had to be faithful to my then bf..lol) Saw him again years later at Fitzgerald's in Houston.. I forgot about him Then many years later bought his CD texas flood , it took awhile to realize that was the same shy Stevie Ray I met back in my youth. I looked him up online and found he had died.. I cried my eyes out.. Now almost everytime I see this video of texas flood I hold back tears. RIP Stevie Ray
