In-fucking-sane! I've been playing lead guitar for 38 years, and consider myself a pretty damn good guitarist....But Holy E-string Batman, I can't do half the shit in front of me that he did behind his back! Truely The Master.
Fuckin hell at 0.18 instead of going off into a big fuck off solo he plays the most seductive notes that just spins you out . fuckin class. Up there with the best , 1.16 then he goes into it ha ha . A man who did what he did and enjoyed everything about it .
I believe this is his best taped show ever ,in my opinion ... I found a bootleg cd version of it by accident at a market a decade ago and treasure it to this day ... :-)
I sent this video to a friend, here is what he had to say:
Thanks for this video, it is now being sent out wide and far to all of my friends who love the blues. What can I say?!!!!!!! The guy was on another planet that night. Outrageously good tone, outrageously good playing, and his obviously magnetic stage presence. He had it all going on. Wish he could have stayed with us a bit longer.
Studio recordings, though great, do him no justice. It's live shows like this that allow people to truly see the passion that he put into tearing every single note out of his soul. This gives me chills.
no JOKE especially as long as he did, and it wasnt just a few notes, he like RIPPED UP the guitar. that PROVES he is Legendary, and no one will ever play as good.
one word..IN-FUCKING-CREDIBLE!! RIP SRV!
