  • It's been 21 years now since Stevie left us and went to play in God's blues band up in heaven. God knows who the best is, in what ever field he's looking for, and he took Stevie. Why? Because he was the best guitar player our earthly world had ever witnessed, and there will never be another like him. Some have tried to be Stevie, but they couldn't be Stevie. No one can. I will always love you, brother.

  • Love the rap in the middle. The words he speaks are of a man who found redemption and was grateful for the new life he had and wanted others to be grateful for theirs. He was showing his true heart here. Stevie was on top of his game when he left us. He left way too early.

  • My SOUL to SOULMATE!!!

  • "If you kick a man while he's down, you better where his shoes, cuz if you were to trade places with him, he'd pick you up."..... Well said Stevie. RIP my man.

  • What a career..... Just imagine what it would have been too.... SRV's the champ. (so is jimi)

  • @caesarbarbosa, thank you for such a beautiful upload!! ♫ ♥r

  • Yes Steven, "you know, it's a very strong day today, it's a very good day for all this to, remember a few things, and go on with the rest of our lives, and no on the bottom, pass it around!, you know, there's a lot of love that goes on, and we don't think about, until we need it more than ever, because it's gone!!!" I love that sentence, great S.R.V!!!

  • SRV is just a guitar master, a very well skilled musician and a very nice person, he can speak his heart trhough music thing that juat a few real musicians can do, MUCH RESPECT TO THE BEST BLUES MUSICIAN EVER!!! STEPHEN RAY VAUGHAN, God bless you, and thanx for all you gave us in life and you still giving to a new generation and to those who are coming, love and respect from Lima-Peru, love ya S.R.V, the best!!!

  • Hell yeah.

  • Sadly i never got to meet you but one day i will meet you in the Scy with Jesus and we will rejoyce in some music and laughter :) Rip Brotha

  • Right ON!

  • He takes you up...he takes you down ..We go into the private places of his soul and travel the roads of his heart.

    "It's a good day to remember a few things s and go on"..."There's alot of love we don't think about until we need it more than ever"...."cause it's gone".

    He is trying to work thru his own personal stuff and is sharing it all. I feel it more in the music he plays than in his words spoken. Either way....play on Stevie where ever you are now. Blessed Be.

  • wow,thanks Stevie!!

  • Comment removed

  • just close your eyes and listen to the music,,, and dream of a better life,,, this is what it means to me .. when listening to the master ...

  • why does it seem that everyone that cleans up and starts doing right dies????????????

  • @cressida8frigga Ive said the same thing.

  • 5 people will never have this song sung about them!!!

  • Life with out Stevie sucks!

  • The sky isn't the only thing crying. God I miss you!

  • I love SRV! I wish he was still here!

  • im glad that he said ''drugs can kill u'' because he almost died of that crap

  • My first visit to Austin first stop was the monument to Stevie Ray.  I love the long shadow cast!

  • SRV LIVES ON!

  • The world lost a truly great, nice, polite,decent, honest and talented man, God bless you Stevie

  • Happy Birthday SRV!

  • Happy Birthday Stevie!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is the only thing I can listen to after the fucking day I've had. Love you Stevie.

  • Simply Beautiful.

  • the 5 people who disliked this can all eat a dick and i hope you die a horrible death. like maybe catching on fire

  • 5 Dislikes? Really? how does that even happen??? Great song!

  • @johnlawrence781 They're just pissed because this song made these manly men cried and didnt have a soulder to cry on:P

  • Stevie was still a few months away from recovery at this point. Still an incredible performance.

  • Stevie Ray is always here he hasnt went anywhere he is in every bit of blues and rock you listen there is not a single big time guitar player that doesnt know who stevie ray vaughan is and didnt listen to him and they will tell you that he was one of the best if not the best that has ever lived.

  • I just a Stevie Ray Vaughan tribute strat, when I opened the case I couldnt help but just well up. Such a big loss to the music community and it hurts me everytime I look at the initials on the pickguard and think he isnt here with us.

    RIP Stevie Ray Vaughan

  • This to me is the ultimate song to listen to on the day of his passing. A quote from this song is engraved in his gravestone. R.I.P. Stevie.

  • I was at is last concert at Alpine. Got so fucked up I don't remember much. It's said it was his best performance ever. I'm sorry I disrespected the mans talent to show up in that condition. Rock on Stevie Ray Vaughan!

  • The music was so GREAT and still sounds good today not dated at all, thanks to Stevie Ray and Double Trouble for so much more. Just hope younger folks learn about SRV !! Rave On Indeed !!!

  • Is this show available on DVD anywhere?

  • You will be missed, my friend.

  • Life without u Stevie is tuff! :' (  Love you,

  • i watch this about once a week just to remind myself why i play

  • Stevie and Jimmie have been an inspiration in my life. They are the reason I picked up a guitar and started playing. Unbelievable talent. Wish blues would make a comeback in Dallas, TX.

  • <3 you stevie.

  • this guy is the greatest he has so much pasiion for what he plays. everysong has such a deep feel and meaning. i love this guy. he is honestly the greatest. by far the greatest!

  • The most beautiful song ever

  • This guitar solo on this version is my favorite solo today. God bless SRV

  • Now this is playing with heart and soul. Just listened to some crap by a synster gates or whatever he calls himself .... Shit hurt my ears

  • 3 dislikes???? wow, hard to believe...musta hit the wrong button...if not a mistake then you all are some hard hearted souls...

  • SRV is the absolute greatest guitarist ever. None before or after could or can approach the talent he had while on this Earth.

  • The last true guitar hero to ever walk on this planet.

  • This is a great video of a man who, in my opinion, was the greatest guitar player ever. I am sure that comment is debatable, but as I said, that is my opinion ! Gone way too early ! RIP SRV !

  • what kind of people dislike this? Thanks to my parents I have listened to this man my entire life. This song really gets me, reminds me of my father...

  • Fuck anyone who hates Stevie!

  • @feezy243 No one hates Stevie. If they do they are confused and misguided.

  • @BamBam00008

    I'm right there with you, man! I'm 13 and have been playin' guitar because of Stevie Ray since I was about 9 years old. There are so many people that play the blues, but don't mean it, and they don't do anything with it. If you remember the blues and keep it close to your heart, you'll be able to bring it a whole lot farther than it is now. I wish you the very best of luck in bringin' the blues back, and I will be right behind you every step of the way!

  • @DVBlues68 everybody that plays the blues means it, everybody that plays any music means it, they may not show emotion, but it is in their, just in their own way, don't think because one guy shows more emotion than another, he means it more, cause that is not fair, anyone that has but that much effort into learning any kind of music, deserves the same credit as everyone else that has, because we have all had sleepless nights getting certain riffs right ect music is part of who we are

  • A passion nobody can match!

  • RIP stevie not a day goes by man when i dont think of you

  • the purpose for srv isnt like the last comment he did overcome alot just open up or un stop ur ears here what he had to say its all in the music drugs or not u c what happend when he got clean he goes but@!!!!! he left so much .........

  • Stevie will always be in my music

    

  • Everytime I feel down and out and I just need some kind of lift I listen to this song and play my guitar and I always feel better. I am only 14 but I get the message and soul in the blues and it is my inspiration. I am saddened that music today has come to what it is. I ask for all people especially teens who listen to blues to prepare for a Blues comeback in the near future. Join me and help me make it popular again. Rest in Peace Stevie. We all miss you and so does music.

  • @BamBam00008 Dude, I'm with you. I'm 18 and we have to bring the blues back.

  • @BamBam00008

    I 100% hear that! I'm 24 and found Stevie when I was 14 as well. He's definitely inspired me in life and music. What a great musician and man he was. Every note he played poured out of his soul. His solo in this song is enough to bring tears to your eyes. That's something truly special.

  • @BamBam00008

    Good for you! Keep listening to the good stuff and playing your guitar.

  • He was the best of my generation, miss u stevie

  • Life Without You..Amen Brother! Angels Have Waited So Long..Take You`r Place in Heaven Stevie Ray Vaughn,My Friend!

  • I Fuckin Love His Music!!!!

  • Steve, u gave a lot of love to mankind just by making beautifull music like this!

    Rest in Peace.

  • what pickups are that?

  • are those danelectro lipstick pickups?

    

  • @Synazedplati yes they are, and this guitar has been named charley after the builder of this guitar, Charley Wirz died in 1985

  • an absolute great artist!!!!! guitar play is awsome. You can see where John mayer gets his style...

  • I wish he didn't die.

  • @iLLUSiiONS111 i heard ppl wish u would shut up. not me. just saying. u know what i am saying gramps?

  • @wowbottledwater Shut up bitch. Stevie Ray Vaughan is someone you call a legend and that is something you will more than likely never know because you think Lady Gaga is talented. Wake up and listen to some real music and talent.

  • The whole performance is greatness.......but 8:03 -8:30....sweet.

  • Une des plus belles chansons jamais écrites !!! Magnifique !!!

  • there are guitar legends and then... there's Stevie :)

  • does anybody know what kind of pickups he's got on that strat?

  • @akumaskill idk if this is true or not, but i've heard that he use to actually stab his amp with a screwdriver to get that sound srv is famous for ;))

  • @akumaskill pickups crated by Charley Wirz (Stevie's best friend and this song writen for him) this strat is custom, you can find only one guitar in USA so this strat is special and thats all I know.(sorry for bad english)

  • @sarp06er Thanks for the info. Don't worry, your english seems good.

  • well that's just fucking amazing

  • I believe Stevie's main purpose in life was to show all of the rock stars that you can do it without the drugs and booze. The man overcame so much, and redeemed himself before death. Many cited Stevie cleaning up as their motivation for cleaning themselves up. That, along with the music, is why Stevie was sent to this earth. Rave on Stevie Ray Vaughan!

  • @SRVFa21  Amen brother...

  • @SRVFa21 He still had so much soul sober. You're right.  SRV always and only could play with feeling. Amen.

  • One person in the world has no soul.

  • man i miss the good old days of rideing around in my car, with the windows, down and stevie playing loud on the radio. day and night, it was loud. i loved thoes days. miss you stevie, rip.

  • Don't mess with Texas.

  • best of the best!!!the first!!

  • I miss Stevie =(

  • i'll let other people argue about who the best is, i just know who my favorite is. stevie is and will always be my #1 influence. timeless

  • Hits my soul everytime I hear this song!

  • the emotion that Stevie Ray Vaughan played with, literally hits your heart. everytime i hear this song it make me wanna cry. RIP(Rock In Peace) Stevie your a truely missed and will never be forgotten!

  • Fantastic

    

  • How close to perfection can you get?

    Going back in time, a dream of mine would be to see SRV in concert.

    The good die young!

    RIP

  • @PinkFloyd1212 one thing we do know is that you cant get any closer to perfection than this... so i guess this is as close to perfection as u can get... the only person that could get any closer would be stevie himself if he was still around... and thats something not even chuck norris can do :D

  • RIP Stevie, gone but not forgotten. Your time was cut way to short.

  • Saw him before he made it big. Many times before and after. Peace.

  • OH MY MYYYYYYYYYYY

  • 03:57 says it all- Don't mess with Texas.

  • This song touch my heart. Love you forever SRV.

  • Kenneth. x

  • Anyone know if there is an audio version of this around? I checked itunes but its not there. Some of the best guitar playing i've ever heard...

  • Twenty years ago today --

  • Stevie, you passed around so much love......and inspiration, you touched so many lives...............Fly on Stevie, Fly on.

  • 20 Years ago today... I miss you so much!!!

  • RIP Stevie.

    

  • ladies and gentleman, this day 20 years ago around 1am, Stevie boarded the helicopter, which crashed shortly after taking flight. Stevie was on 36.

  • 1 person must of accidentally disliked this video. cause theres now possible way out couldn't love this, much less like it. RIP SRV

  • This has to be one of the greatest songs of all time. It gives me chills everytime I hear it. Stevie's emotions are so close the the surface, not like most of us, and he doesn't mind sharing them. You will live forever, Stevie. After all this time, people are still watching these videos and new people are discovering him all the time. Love you forever, Stevie.

  • There is only certain times I can listen to this song. If I am down and out this song just makes cry, same with Life By The Drop. there is so much emotion in his lyrics, his song playing, and his voice. If I'm in a good mood It hrow on this track adn others, but if I'm feeling down give me Tin Pan Alley, Lenny. Any SRV song.

  • stevie makes me cry because he is so beautiful and full of feeling..... nobody (except for the one man i ever loved with all of my heart, who is gone now) moves my soul like stevie........ thank you for giving me something i can keep forever.... your music......

  • this song IS the meaning of life

  • thank god we have you tube and videos to watch stevies legend play on therefore he will never die :]

  • We're with you Stevie...

  • man i am crying now WOW!

  • @MusHYPooPiE Ouch! Man never wish death......just love the music SRV left us with.....he loved us and we love him!

    Peace

  • He was truely the best regardless of his past he left us to early but will be heard by his fans forever You are the reason I picked up the gutitar and hve never put it down...

    jake

  • AMAZING!!

  • What a loss for all of us when he died, but I think of him all the time as a messenger of positive energy. Therefore he remains alive forever.RIP SRV.

  • Pure Magic! Hit's The Soul!!!!!! Thankyou Stevie Ray...
