  • we dont know anything about merseybeat- you tell him, stevie

  • he is my number 1 inspiration

  • On 2:59 the videorecorder wasn't able to record the epicness of SRV anymore

  • BTW who the fuck would dislike this...apart from the out of sync...there are some jealous idiots in the world

  • love love love this guy...so FUCKING SAD

  • Sadly missed,RIP

  • FUCKING CAT!!!

  • lol fuck spreensteen and fuck bon jovi

  • Lol check out the second of yankee rose at the end of the video

  • incredibly awesome guitarist. Incredibly fugly man.

  • This is an interview/story.. not a guitar lesson.... SRV Is my favorite... just saying the title is misleading.

  • srv>clapton

  • Oh com' on, really? compare SRV with Clapton? They are two different players with two different styles, they can't be compared to each other! Both are great and extraordinary guitarists. And saying SRV i repetitious is for me a sign you haven't really listened to SRV, but thats my opinion...

  • clapton better than stevie?

    i dont think so

  • @smellycut you're right..clapton is a master,but stevie..is the best blues guitarist of all time..clapton on stevie:"he was one of the greats..i have to tell this story:we played on the same bill on his last two gigs.on the first night,i watched his set for about half an hour,and then i had to leave because i couldn't handle it!i knew enough to know that his playingwas just going to get better and better and better.his set had started,he was like two or three songs in,and suddenly got that.."

  • @smellycut "..flash that i'd seen before so many times whenever i'd seen him play,which was that he was like a channel-one of the purest channels i've ever seen,where everything he sang and played flowed straight down from heaven.almost like one of those mystic Sufi guys with one finger pointing up and one finger down.that's what it was like to listen to.and i had to leave just to preseserve some kind of sanity or confidence in myself." Guitar world,may 1998.THANK YOU STEVIE,R.I.P.

  • crazy dude in headdress at 7:13

  • i can play the g chord

  • just me or does it go out of sync?

  • No one like SRV - what an incredible contribution to the guitar world - What do we have now? Kenny Wayne Shepard - John Mayer - Wolf Mail - Gary Clark jr???

  • SRV... I humbly bow before your amazing skills. I can remember everything about the moment I found out SRV was killed. It was in the morning radio I was listening to at work. The sun was shining, but it was a black day for me.

  • Putain d'hélicoptère !

  • eric clapton is better

  • @ElliotJMusic no, you are wrong.

  • @ElliotJMusic eric clapton i highly overrated. get out you troll

  • @DRGK9 no i just like how eric clapton plays... his style is much more cleaner than stevie more crisp licks and runs while stevie uses open strings alot which i hate its just a different sound theyre both good but ultimately eric is better player and the rest of the world of thinks so too

  • @ElliotJMusic um no because i have asked about 124 people and they all agreed with srv being better. and you cant say eric is better because hes "cleaner" because people like jimi hendrix werent nesesarily "clean" and people still think hes better then eric. do you play? probly not. because if you did you would know that stevie ray vaughan has a more complex playing style which far surpasses eric clapton

  • @DRGK9 Stevie Ray was good but he was all blues scale, and he was VERY repetitious.

  • @Danazawa im not gonna lie he was repetitive, depending on the song. and everybody has those repetitive moments

  • he sucks ass lmao

  • On 2:59 the videorecorder wasn't able to record the epicness of SRV anymore

  • Love you Stevie. I Hope I go to Heaven and play a few chords with you.

  • 151 people hate that someone can play better than them.

    

  • i miss him so much!! RIP Stevie!!!!!!

  • whats the name of the first song that he plays? the song when he imitates eric clapton. 

  • @ElAlex742 Hideaway.

  • @beckabluesband thanks!

  • @ElAlex742 That song by Muddy Waters and Clapton is called Hideaway. It's an old blues standard.

  • @markmende thanks!

  • 151 faggots

  • Comment removed

  • guitar lesson? please. "excuse me mr. vaughn....can you do that one part again real quick....i think i missed a note". how is it even possible for someone to play like that?

  • @PWINNxXx20 Listen, salami, you have no talent or musical sense to criticize ...you did not notice the rhythm that has the song? you did not ditch it was not a raging rock that required to ignite riff guitar? WAS A BLUES BROTHER, A BLUES !!!!! learn music first, before to criticize such a genius of the blues like Stevie Ray!!!!!

  • @ladygard1 I appreciate you sticking up for Stevie, I guarantee my dad was not dissing him. I actually have no idea what he meant by the comment, but he worships the guy. Trust me, I grew up watching the same VHS of him playing live at Red Rocks over and over...

  • @ladygard1 Also, if you were using an internet translator and were trying to call my dad a dick, you ended up calling him a processed lunch meat. Which is awesome. XD

  • @PWINNxXx20 maybe rude mood is not enough for you...

  • This stuff is priceless! Been learning guitar with the FretHub guys and now I think I'm ready to handle a bit of Stevie

  • @OOjanickabollockov I don't see why people want to learn from the internet. Music is not a visual art. You use your ears to try and pick up on what they're doing! You ask people who know. What are you going to learn by looking at tabs other than a couple licks? You don't develop style, you just string a couple licks together that you learn from different tabs rather than interpreting it however you want.

  • @jonahtran1 Frethub don't use tabs or teach licks. Its like having 2 personal guitar teachers who show you the fundamentals of understanding music, how the guitar works and how to recognise the techniques that are being used so you can learn and develop your own style. Much better than learning random licks and tabs on youtube as you pointed out. I couldnt agree with you more!

  • he sure puts a smile on your dial the way he plays,all day everyday,what a loss though, terrible just terrible, even in 2012.R.I.P mate!!

  • one question is the soft"V"shaped neck can handle the 013 gauges? i want to buy Fender Road Worn 50's Strat. and make sound more same of SRV . and the Fender Standard with Modern neck can i do the same thing? someone says add the springs is that doing alright?

  • @JiessieZ18 You can put 13's on any Strat with some adjustments. The biggest thing is being able to handle 13's on your guitar and be able to play what Stevie did. It's no easy task.

  • @downhome7500 The only "adjustment" you need to do is to detune your guitar half or one tone, if you put on 13's and tune your guitar to standard tuning, the neck'll buckle up. I once put 14's on Tele and tuned it to standard tuning, I couldn't believe the bow the neck turned into!

  • man everytime I see this... I am ALWAYS amazed of how SRV is playing... Look at those fingers play!!!!

  • We lost a talent like Vaughan and yet we can't get Bon Jovi near a fuckin' helicopter. - Denis Leary.

  • @warrenginmartini LMAO So true man

  • @warrenginmartini id replace bon jovi with lady gaga and britney spears. bon jovi does have a knack for melody at least and theres some artistic value there.

  • @warrenginmartini HAHAHAHA. That's the best quote I have ever read!

    Also, please have a listen to my music on my channel! It's hugely influenced by SRV! Please give it a chance, I guarantee you'll like it!

  • @warrenginmartini take the chopper to bon jovi

  • @warrenginmartini what the fuk does that mean??

  • Clicked on this all excited! A LESSON FROM SRV! Got my guitar and sat totally ready! After Rude Move, I put my guitar down. What the f+*k was I thinking?

  • Why are you lookin up shakira dancing????? Srv bitches!

  • Stevie is my hero... He was the greatest guitarist of the world. Rest in peace Stevie!

  • how the fuck is this related to shakira dancing?????

  • SRV was a genius, hands down. Excellent, excellent guitarist. A real gent and a real pro. Sorely missed.

  • The guy giving this interview has no idea who or what he is sitting across from. Stevie was the greatest guitarist so far in my lifetime. All I know is when I get to heaven I am going to spend several Milena picking that Stevie's brain.

  • I read somewhere that he used 13's (string gauge) which gave him that strong sound.

    God bless & long live SRV.

  • @johnmitchel1958 he tuned his guitar a half step down

  • @Trouter92 Yeah but he played heavy 13's, that's insane!

  • Must admit, I was hoping to learn a bit more when I first typed in 'lesson' into youtube.

  • his voice reminds me of Frank Zappa

  • The guy is good. But my videos have better quality =p

    /user/abriefsilence

  • Very cool stuff! Love it!! Joey Vaughan "World Blues Attack"

  • great loss

  • FUCKING HELICOPTER!!!

  • I was fortunate enough to see SRV live twice. Seen lots of greats, but gotta say SRV was the most emotional, powerful player I've ever seen. RIP. I hope where he's at he's got that house a rockin'.

  • I am 50 years old and want to start guitar lessons next year, and I want to okay like SRV! Does anyone think I got a smidge if a chance lol?!

  • @Mmcheekie You have a chance if you don't already have arthritis in your fingers. I loved this guy. I was crushed when he died.

  • Hey just a question to payers out there trying to learn. what is the most common thing that you think is missing when you try to learn from a video or a book?

  • @Mattcallaway86 Brother, I've been playing twenty years and I'm still learning. All of us are. Learning never stops. We are all eternal students. To try to answer your question, I'll say this: Learn from videos, books, guys at your local bar, cat's sitting around guitar stores, teachers, etc. Anyway, anyhow,anywhere you can gain knowledge take advantage of it. All musicians love to talk shop and share knowledge. The ones you meet who don't....fuck 'em.

  • @tomthefunky Thanks for the advice but I was more interested in what people think is missing from method books or videos. That way those things can be addressed. I would love to hear your advice on that seeing as how you are knowledgeable in this subject. Thanks!

  • @Mattcallaway86 Feedback. Books and videos are left open to what your interpretation of the material is. A book or video wont correct you if you are making technical errors, and practice makes permanent not perfect in those situations. If you truly want to progress in the right way find a professional teacher, not player, there is a world of difference between being able to play and being able to teach others to play.

  • I translate in: STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN=TALENT

  • some nice looking steel cables he's got there on his guitar!

  • What is the deal with David Lee Roth at the very end? VAN HALEN!!!!!

  • @1977BanditTransAM Lol i was watching at the end for David and all of a sudden i seen stevie and I was like Um lol thats not david then I see him going for the jump lol

  • the footage is too epic for a camera to handle

  • Excellent talent, listen to the tone. And that rhythm!!!

  • One of the best resources for how to play guitar courses is available at guitar player world.com Check out this awesome site for guitar players of any levels to get how to play guitar tutorials!

  • brb telling people stevie ray vaughan taught me how to play guitar

  • T A L E N T

    

  • 300 pages of TABS !!!

  • ehm Feeling like having a little fun

  • "How to play the guitar"

    "Listen to SRV"

  • Cold shot

  • i really love how humble and respectful to the other members of the band he was..

    that jerk keeps asking questions like " You won a grammy.." or " How is your version.." but he answers " WE'VE been nominated.." and " OUR version is"

  • @odingr Technically "you" can refer to more than one person...

  • @odingr You can't really call the interviewer a jerk... When he said "You won a grammy" he could well have been referring to the whole band, seeing as Stevie is one of the members. If he was referring to the band how would you expect him to phrase it? Saying "you" as a reference to the a group is perfectly acceptable.

  • @odingr LOVE IT

  • @odingr Uhm, you = you and not you. You can't know if he meant to say you as in the entire band or you as in him only.

  • HOW THE FUCK IS THIS A LESSON?

  • @andredidiergijon

    It's a lesson in musical differentiation of styles.

  • They should have had an interviewer that was more hip about blues. SRV speaks of how brit blues is hotter and the guy asks about the "mersey beat." Loser.

  • Yeah, it's awesome, but it's too bad the video messes up at the 3 minute mark! Thanks for the post of this!

  • SRV is my sons idle, Stevei was one of the greatest! my son is working on carrying the torch, check out Bobby at youtube, srvzepp my favorite is "the Room" Dazed and confused video. Thanks!

  • wait.....how did stevie know that cat was there at the end???

  • Wow! watching this leaves me with a big decision. Shall I pick up my guitar and practice 45 hours a day, or just take it and sell it, as I have no hopes of ever being close to this good.

  • hrm let me show you how far i can go

  • A man who basically looks homeless from the neck up, with perfectly manicured hands. I guess if you were a genius with your hands you'd do the same.

  • Best tone & technique period.

  • 146 people need shooting!! Fuckin retards without a brain cell!

  • Luckiest interviewer in the world?

    Luckiest interviewer in the world.

  • rry but bbking and robert johnson had this down before srv but he is up there

  • well sensual girl here just for you baby

  • @PazLeaup403 By that you mean a fat girl with a with hairy nipples ?

    

  • @WeKickBabiesOfficial Amen, you shut up and realise how lucky you are that you are getting a personal freken sit in with the greatest guitar player that ever lived!

  • what kind of pedal did he use when playing eric clapton's version?

  • Too bad the video screws up at 3:00 and falls behind the audio.

    Man, I miss hearing SRV (live). Still mourning for that guy.

  • stevie is the definition of guitar

  • at 3:00 the screen lost perception of reality

  • @guitarfreek393 Haha! Classic!

  • @guitarfreek393 and the sound got sent forward through a rift in time to play before the video from there on. I about fainted from awe in how he could play notes while appearing to play something totally different until I noticed the separration in tracks.

  • @logipi79 hahaha, heck yeah bo

  • When Stevie came squalling out of his mother's womb, he had a 'geetar' in his hand lolol.

  • @bertthefirst 26 its superstitious

  • "I'll make it through it, if I ask for help". :)

    great thought ..

  • Comment removed

  • Can we see that in super slow mo LOL!!! Stevie was soooo good and is still dearly missed.

  • sux how it goes out of sync half way through

  • 2:57 he melted the camera lense

  • The only lesson I ever learned from Stevie Ray is, I only *pretend* to play guitar...

  • @DrDespicable Thats a great way of putting it. Was that something Stevie said himself? If so do you know how I could find it?

  • @gunsnbam No, that's something *I* said. Stevie Ray was so good that, listening to him play, I often wonder why I even bother trying.

  • @DrDespicable and only a guitarist knows what he meant !

  • hm Your little princess is here to please you

  • Jaja q fácil que la hace, un grande

  • What kinda douche dislikes this?!?!?!

  • @bradleynowel1 uuuhhhh.... a real big one?

  • SRV é o melhor!!!!

  • maestrazooooooooo

  • tell me about it, what a bunch of ass holes for disliking! Im not a big blues fan and I still think stevie is the fuckin shiz nit. I dont get it?

  • @Blake101st I dont get it either , Im a Death Metal guitar player / singer and I think Srv is a God !!!!

  • @Shink5 if you play death metal, then you probably like SRV for the wrong reasons...it probably has something to do with the fast playing and technical ability, doesnt it?

  • @YanksFan162 Nah ive been listenning to blues and rock since before I was into metal

  • @Shink5 the what the heck attracted you to metal, and especially death metal?

  • @YanksFan162 Black Sabbath , then Slipknot , and then Slayer , and then Cannibal Corpse and Whitechapel , also the freedom you get while playing , You can be as fast as you want , as technical as you want , as slow as you want ect

  • @Shink5 the way i look at it, guitar playing is not about speed and technicality, but the emotions you transmit through the instrument. srv is a good example. dont you find that most of today's metal bands, especially lead guitarists in the genre, play too fast and technical to actually have any human emotion or that dirty raw feeling that blues guys get?i feel like alot of those metal guitarists play fast to show off, and not actually accomplish anything on an emotional level. CPUs can do that.

  • @YanksFan162 Well it depends , I agree with you that there are alot of bands today that abandon fell and emotion for technicality . But some bands like Whitechapel have lots of emotion in their music (Listen to their instrumental Death Becomes him its got a very dark vibe to it) , The Acacia Strain is the most pissed off band you will ever hear , Michael Ammott from arch enemy is an incredible player so is Alexi Laiho from Children of Bodom.

  • @Shink5 im talking just about the guitar playing when ispeak about emotion. All around musically, metal bands have no problem with mood. thats the root of my problem with most of metal. all those "dark, brooding" songs are, to me, poser-ish. its like every metal band needs to be angry, write about cliche topics like war and death and injustice, and play heavy and fast to show this. not that they all are phonies, but its such a recycled formula its feels idiotic and corny to me,and not creative.

  • @YanksFan162 As a metalhead all I have to say is that its angry music for angry people , Anger is an emotion , which is why we play aggressive music .

  • 'The only way to win is to give up'

  • a guitar hero... the legend !

  • he is my hero

  • Y'know, FannyEssen1, I was watching this video AGAIN & I realized AGAIN how right you are! Think about it, even when he was loaded he could still bring the goods. Pick something you love, kids... practice A LOT and maybe..... ;)

  • that was unreal playing... i can die happy when i learn to play like that ahaha

  • Well this is all fucked, nice film fuck up

  • what is that thing on the last 2 seconds of the video?

  • @mredline1 looks like Van Halen, doesn't it?

  • WOW! He makes it look so easy. As good as it gets.

  • fue el primer video que vi en youtube :)

  • "oh your asking a question..? well here im gonna play so ..ahh sut up" (guitar playing*

  • the greatest.rip

  • SRV was real...period.

  • Haha this ain't a lesson, this is Stevie showing us how it's done

  • @supahsekzy nah man this is a lesson, i learned how to play off this video

  • Anna

  • anna he aint a cliche tortured artist, as much as it was having it at his disposal

  • this is great up until 3:55 and then its the same old same old cliche tortuired artist yawn yawn bullshit zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

  • i love stevie but i think this whole drugzs thing and the recovery cliche was bollox its like im not a big religeous believer but its like he wanted it both ways i am going to be a druggie to get more musical bullshit debauched and then i am going to get straight and become more musical and spiritual. and you know what i dont think you can have it both ways now if i were a believer i would think thats why god called on him early

  • name of this song plz 1:01

  • @bertthefirst26 I think it is "hideaway"

  • @jaj145 Thanks

  • @bertthefirst26 he says it in the video but its hideaway
