Stevie Ray Vaughan - Collins Shuffle (Montreux '82)

[MrCcr10]

Down n dirty blues... LOVE IT! thx for the recordings Stevie



[estreetbill]

You know after 21 years since Stevie left this world it's like a two way door watching this. It's unbelievable to watch him today and remember how great he was - so much better than anyone else, but it still breaks me heart that he's no longer with us. There have been so many guys who have tried to be Stevie since, but no one has come close, and nobody ever will. Well, at least God has the greatest guitar player of all time in his band up there.

[Tmoumou]

My lord !!! Have any of you actually sat down and tried to figure this one out ?? It's gonna be a rough one to crack . The man was from a different planet . Different wave length

[hungarianmazdadriver]

why was the crowd booing? they were high as hell, or wtf? idiots..

[turoc654]

in the aa speach he says it

[turoc654]

did stevie get beat up alot as a kid? i heard he did its sad

[AdamIowa89]

@turoc654 Who did you hear that from.

[buffalobilly]

around 2.05 thats's guitar technique

[Tmoumou]

And no toggle switch either

[Tmoumou]

Anyone else notice that strat only has one pickup on it ? Interesting .....

[kiwilifter]

@Tmoumou Thank heavens it was the neck pickup !! Great performance though, never seen him use this yellow Strat before, wonder what happened to it?..

[elcottonball]

@kiwilifter it was stolen.

[voxsoundpro]

@elcottonball Maybe we're speaking of a different strat here but SRV used to have a blonde one just like that which neck was used to replace Number one' neck after it was broken in a strange accident shortly before Stevie died

[elcottonball]

@voxsoundpro no, that was guitar was named "scotch" because of its butterscotch color. It had three pickups. This is a pure yellow strat with only one pickup, the neck pickup. It was stolen from stevie around 1983 or 84.

[anonymouslolxD]

Anyone know anything about that strat he's using? I've never seen him with that one before.

[Bopalena]

They're booing him?!?! What the fuck? Oh well, Hendrix got booed too when he opened up for the Monkees. Lotsa dumbasses out there!

[Death90ism]

why would those people boo this is pure greatness they are wittnessing!!!

[JandritoBlues]

@Death90ism Montreaux must be a rough crowd. I have a recording of John Coltrane performing "A Love Supreme" in its entirety there. Boos can be heard at the end of the set.

[gibagang]

Stevie went like: "Forgive them father for they know not what they do..."

[dbf678]

Yellow strat. Ain't she a beauty..

[mustangersalie]

to say that the ass-wipes that were booing have no taste or class is an understatement !

i would have walked off & saved my talent & energy for those of us ( the majority) who appreciated it , but then again Stevie Ray Vaughn is the one who showed them what real class is !

[ironmanboy]

And the thundering bass of Tommy Shannon!!

[scotty8449]

Thank you so much for all the love you passed our way, Stevie- you are missed, brother....

[scotty8449]

You can see the heartbreak in his eyes as they boo....... Unbelievable that could happen!

[SavantSvant]

That guys who boo is a bunch of deff people booing @ random cuz they are sad since they can't hear him. :S

[SRV4evr]

Truly amazing. I never tire of hearing/seeing this performance. To this day, I don't understand the booing of such a superb musician, even if it wasn't "what they were expecting." My god, the man was brilliant!!!!!! Love you always Stevie.

[ironmanboy]

@SRV4evr I read that the booing at this show was some stuck up Europeans who thought SRV was too loud, and did not like electric blues. Who cares!! He blew them away.

[SRV4evr]

@ironmanboy There's no denying he was loud. Anyone who ever heard him play would acknowledge that. The crowd booed primarily because they were expecting more low-key, acoustic music. But why they weren't instantly enthralled with what they were witnessing, even if it wasn't expected, is something I'll never get. Fortunately, in the long-run his appearance in Montreux helped his career rather than hurt it. Yeah Stevie!!!

[ironmanboy]

@SRV4evr Well said. I did get to see him play twice, it was loud and beautiful.

I will never forget that at the end of one show, when everyone was so hyped up, he sat on the edge of the stage and played Tin Pan Alley as the last encore. It was so unexpected, a counter to all the heavy playing. The crowd was so mellow after that, and we all left in a joyous daze.

[SRV4evr]

@ironmanboy I can only imagine what that must have been like, you lucky person! I've loved Stevie and his music for years and years, but never had the privilege of attending a concert. What a musician.

[ysa20ghjkv]

Este concierto de Stevie es muy bueno. Toca el blues mejor que nunca, aunque el público de Montreux no valore su talento, y aún así Stevie hace de las suyas porque él es uno de los dioses de la guitarra, junto con Hendrix.

[DiavoloDiAno]

Does anybody know where I can find a tab for this song WITHOUT having to pay? I can't find one place that has it for free like every other tab. All I want to do is learn a song.

I think its completely ridiculous that some assholes are making money off SRV's tabs.

[alexc475]

search songsterr its got awesome tabs or ultimate guitar i learned this song there ;)

[DiavoloDiAno]

thanks for the reply, but it doesn't seem to be on either of those sites :|

[dex010]

if i live to be a 100 years old i will always be amazed by SRV and will never grow tired of listening to his wonderful music and always be inspired by him and his life...

thanks for this high quality video

[LukeBerto]

people who booed SRV could so and fuck themselves.

I can't boo anybody has more talent than me, in every genre. I don't think in the public there was one person who could play like Stevie, so they were a mass of shit

[Moesizla]

Boo that, ya little Swiss meatslappers!!!!!

[fixxxer152000]

love the way he RIPS thru this...

[linnie321]

Thanks for placing these awesome vids SRV !!!

[wolatinus]

Wow! I don't know how you did it,but this is great! Sounds great and great picture for this almost 27 year old performance. Thanks for posting.

[pinksrv]
