Stevie Ray Vaughan - Texas Flood (Long version!)

[nayoxtierradelobos]

this is, provably, the best work of stevie.

[nayoxtierradelobos]

@nayoxtierradelobos. This is, provably, the best actuation of stevie.

[bdunc295]

It seems like the record companies insist on taking down all the classic concert footage. I feel lucky to still find SRV videos. I mean, yea I own live dvd's from bands like Zeppelin, Floyd, Hendrix and SRV, but I'd much rather do a google search than dig through an old box of DVDs to see them. I bring this up because half of my Favorites were removed due to copyright issues. Bullshit I say...

[robbywaltonmusic]

i hope that guitar was 18...

[papabundy]

It takes the breath away.....amazing, just amazing.

[SchoolofMNRock]

The minute stevie picks up a guitar it becomes alive. Like it is playing itself. R.I.P Stevie Ray Vaughan. This is one of his best songs to!!!

[CharlesDavidPollock]

check out my channel to hear SRV's influences

[grandpunkspdx]

Fantastic!! He would be the great guitarist in heaven too!!!

[jfreelove23]

i live in oklahoma, its flooding here too : )

[TheRiceowlex]

INCREDIBLE...MISS YOU SRV..RIP BROTHER

[joeyracano1]

its so good to hear him again- I was on a ladder in berkeley Calif painting a house when my freak o the week told me the bads...RIP Stevie- you were the SH!T!!!!

joey racano xoxoxo ps thanx for all the lix!!!!!!!!!!

[MsCham92]

HELL YAP

[bnighter]

awesome. rest in peace srv

[MrRoss442]

They don't play music like this any more. At 38 I'm not just an old fogey. Today's music ain't got the same soul. You only get one of these guys per generation. The last generation had Jimi. We got Stevie.

[PaperTreeMusic]

If you like SRV, please check my music out on my channel! I am a young blues rock player, and I'm just trying to get my music out there!

Please at least give it a chance!

[ewintertyler]

with rainymood (^_^)♥♥♥

[rickyabell49]

this is music at its best now and forever

[johnca619]

How can anyone really really say SRV was not the best guitar player of all time?

I've seen Jimi, BB King, SRV, Albert Collins, John Lee Hooker, Santana, Savoy Brown, Fleet Wood Mack of the sixties and seventies and many other blues greats...Stevie was the best ever, hands down!!!!!!!!!!!

Peace

[DntTickleElmoHeBites]

The best ever - period end of sentence! Love Jimi - Stevie was better!

[MrRussy123]

The Best there is, The Best there was. The Best there ever will be. FACT.

[buster3600]

Does anybody know where that guitar is? I've been tto the R&R Hall of Fame and it's not there. Did it go down in the plane with him?

[Mrvoodoochild1]

@buster3600 It was a helicopter not a plane.

[buster3600]

He really was pretty good wasn't he...lol. Close second only to some dude named Jimi in my opinion.

[BeBopDeluxe85]

1:32 - 1:41 just fucking ridiculous. He also plays on 13 gauge strings... you know how fucking hard that is?

[standepain]

@BeBopDeluxe85 I thinks Stevie Vai said he tried playing Stevie's guitar once and could barely eek out a note due to the heavy strings.

[mailman3916]

the first 2 minutes and 6 seconds of this song absolutely kicks ass!

[mailman3916]

It's hard to believe Stevie is gone over 20 years. I'm just grateful that we have all this video we can keep looking at over and over, and he kicks ass in every one of them. By far the best blues guitarist ever. I dont care what Richie Blackmore said, he's jealous of how much people really loved Stevie.

[low72]

i just can't understand how someone can play like that. it's fucking insane i just don't get it

[elentubao]

SRV is god!!!

[zacharywight67]

The minute he picks up a guitar.....it becomes alive.......

[MathCelebritydotcom]

The first time I ever heard this song, I pulled the car over and sat on the side of the road. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

Years later, and I still get the same goosebumps when I hear this song.

[lookahere]

@MathCelebritydotcom I hear ya man. I thought I was a good guitarist until I heard this song. After hearing it, I was so blown away that I packed up my guitars and locked them in storage. About a year ago, I pulled them back out and started playing again. Saw this video and promptly returned them to storage. Lol! I mean, what's the point? I'll just upgrade my stereo and listen to Stevie play instead.

[Tdoggy64]

He IS the Man!

[LynnaRenae]

Its flooding in Texas right now! (In Austin) ;)

[xXPlayer2]

@LynnaRenae 4 days ago in dallas =)

[jonhysex100]

im seeing this becuase this is one of the artist that philip sayce based on and im triyng to play like him and let me tell you this is simple awesome

[iltubo]

148 people are clearly dumb

[gingerough]

@iltubo Not dumb....deaf!!

[ClikClak80]

I must have listen to this like a million times already. I can listen to this til my ear drums explode. Theres no music like this anymore. SRV a legend indeed!

[standepain]

SERIOUSLY WTF!!!!!!! 6:35-9:35

[MrVettester99]

Adjectives cant even come close to describing the FEELING that one gets when they close their eyes and hear this with some good headphones and no one around to screw up the 10 minutes of pure pleasure coming thru the speakers.....

[Waynos1836]

The man SRV

[stevonf007]

It takes a big man and big heart to bleed this much soul into a guitar.... its one thing to do it in your bedroom.. its another to share it with a crowd and the world... he laid it all on the line ... and fuck is it ever special and amazing... greatest guitarist of all time in my opinion. Been playing 20 years now and cant hold a candle to the passion this man played with.

[davidcarr90]

6:22 - Ingenious

[davidcarr90]

Stevie must have really been on fire that night. Compare this live version to the Montreux 1982 performance - It's like comparing two seperate guitarists.

[uptownxgeek]

Stevie, why the hell are you so amazing the way you are? Why must you arouse my ears the way you do with that sweet music you play? Why must your get the chance to project that beautiful sound that is Your music? :')

[kl2794]

148 People drowned in this Texas Flood.

[jedmaster111]

Some people i think hear this song and get scared because they cant handle it.

[HolyEggRollys]

SRV is such a badass!

[evildane]

8:35  epic.

[MrSnowshreder]

Take youtube out of Russia. Because only Communists could dislike stevie!!!!!

[Guitardundee]

day 34, i'm still desperately searching for the key to play like this...

[brucekirk89]

@Guitardundee lots and lots of drugs and booze my friend

[godosh]

that's really good.. what planet that guy with the cowboy hat is from?

[Guitardundee]

i tryed that also with the guitar on my back... seriously, how did he do that so long? i'm at least 20 years younger than him ^^

[boomboxbadboy]

american idol,x factor,britains got talent........FUCK OFF YOU CUNTS!!!

[hmlessalky]

It's always amazing watching the true masters. No matter what the profession, watching a true master at his trade is amazing.

[PaperTreeMusic]

If you like SRV, then please check out the songs on my channel! My music is heavily influenced by Stevie, he is my hero!

Please help a blues guitarist kid out and check them out!

Thanks!

[CadillacL]

[DyingSID666]

[Ashitaka1110]

Far, far too many ads on Youtube lately.

[iamtheipodman]

His guitar playing is UNREAL and I love his voice!

[steelberg49]

MAKE IT SING STEVIE ,THATBABY IS CRYING !!! RIP BROTHER!

[UKToneKing]

I actually tried to play my guitar the same way today, guess what, it sucked lol that is harder than it looks, well to do some of the things he was doing is just plain impossible, the guy was a bluesman through and through, I would see he is one of the best ever, I wish he was here today, I seen SRV live once, & it was out of this world good, it is still the best gig I have been to, I felt like I had landed on the moon when I saw him play

[kinsatoya9]

definitivamente

genial

[bonzdee]

still watching the best blues guitarist ever in 2012. Your music will never die bro. R.I.P!

[TTiGaRftw]

How the fuck can you dislike this? The ones who disliked this fucking amazing art-piece probably think they can play it better.

[crazedvikingfan28]

@TTiGaRftw they're from texas... and stevie just flooded them!!

[BluDavid100]

how am i suposed to memorize 9 minutes of this? u.u

[LegSpreader69]

lawdy i sho do luvs me sum stevie

[TheKidFromJersey89]

Holy FUCK I wish he were alive still.

[BitchPleaseMETAL]

Ahw goosebumps everywhere :D

[ihadtomakeaname]

i'm trying to learn this version on guitar and i'm considering just going to med school instead

[sphinxart]

@ihadtomakeaname Funniest comment I've ever read, thank you sir.

[GMAW56]

@ihadtomakeaname  go to med school - you'll need a day job ;-)

[BluDavid100]

@ihadtomakeaname i really think that would be easier. im trying to learn it too, but ill guess ill just improvise most of it, f**k its 9 and a half minutes long! u.u

[gweaterman]

i can play guitar with my teeth, i can play over my head, but i cant play behind my back. I gotta learn that trick

[dmreeoogdaq]

I'm gonna have go lay down now. MERCY!

THAT SONG COULD NOT BE SUNG TODAY WE HAVE CELLPHONES?????

[xxThePeasantKingxx]

@dumbletone Already Is Man...Already Is

[dumbletone]

I don't know who he is, but he will be a legend someday ;-))

[mrXXrauf182XX]

@dumbletone he is a legend

[shortwatchtower]

@dumbletone he already is a legend...

[drumdude199]

@dumbletone Haha dude, you made me laugh! My guess you are not a guitarist or maybe just starting to become interrested. Because the man you are talking about was widely considered the best blues guitarist the world has ever known. Fact is unfortunately, that he past away a long time ago in a helicopter crash. But if you're just getting to know him, you will have a knew idol in a few days

[sillydevin12]

When I was little I got home from church got my guitar and tried playing along with his music SRV is a music legend.

[volksie100]

The more I watch other guitar players, the more I appreciate just how good Stevie Ray Vaughan was. He's the yardstick. Great taste + style + superb technical ability = Legend.

[ceej1978]

The man OWNS blues.

[MsWorthey]

I've always enjoyed his playing his Guitar and the way he gets into it.

[chipbuhl]

nuff said

[banditJG]

it's been rainning for some time here! but it'll never be as Texas Flood!! love it 1000times!!!

[de6430]

If this doesn't blow your mind, your not alive.

[MrRedelder]

esse cara é foda ..,destroi .. é unico do kct

[32a34a]

If it is possible to sodomize a guitar than SRV just did it.

[Blainebambambam]

BAD MOTHER FUCKER

[1825sunshine]

I played the first 1.5 mins of this for my gcse musio performance. My teacher was surprised.

[Dreliotstein]

Wondeful tone, playing, and person..jus great!

[RetroSamTV]

@SimonStorey87 lol it's cause mainstream made him obscure like a mother, listen to his texas flood album, couldn't stand the weather album, and in step album, for starters.

[Thuggin2222]

dude can shred a guitar like cheese on a taco.

[jimmey134]

sucks how the best guitar players die at a young age

[stevieraejones]

Great 3 piece band. Amazing sounding. Thanks for posting

[SimonStorey87]

can someone please tell me why the fuck i'm only getting into hs stuff now? please please please somebody enlighten me and show me the way?

[Misirlau]

@SimonStorey87 There's still time to change the road you're on! ;) ;)

[Jerryman1980]

@SimonStorey87

Try listening to some Zappa! YouTube On The Bus.

[g3rbl]

@SimonStorey87 youve asked the right question child.

the answer is mocambo lenny and little wing live.

[sdrk22]

Yeah... Texas Flood by Stevie... What can anyone say? After this mankind is damned.

[AlexLippeveld]

even when he plays the guitar behind his back, he's better than all of us together! Awesome

[freighthog3511]

That gave me fuckin chills all over my arms! Holy fucker that was bad ass! He played the feelings out of his mind right into the strings on that guitar... Damn that was good.

[viking871000]

Best guitar ever. I watch daily or inspiration. Deep frets, heavy gauge strings, and tuned down. Noone else could do this.

[poolrooster]

There will never be anyone to match SRV bending a guitar string. He didn't play it, it played him.

RIP boy, you were the best!!

[TheRichardson96]

His phrasing is scary good and he has such flowing creativity. I speak in present tense because Stevie Ray Vaughan never will never die in my book.

[moonshine8603]

I hear this kind of music cures retardation

[imdafootballdude]

146 people had too unsteady of hands after listening to hit to like button

[dillonwolf85]

This fake MitRomney Ad is Annoying.

[YouPunkPhuck]

[de6430]

This is blues played in a way that engulfs your mind and soul. No one on earth can replicate what SRV does with the guitar.

[chrisj80]

@de6430 110% agreed!

[ragingklingon]

@de6430 "Did" with the guitar.

[de6430]

@ragingklingon I unfortunately stand corrected my friend.

[MrCornelius234]

145 people watched it upside down and still liked it.

[artimusbill]

@MrCornelius234 LOL, there we go!

[AmyWhipkey]

145 people ARE STUPID AS HELL! WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU 145 PEOPLE?! YOU MUST BE DEAF AND DUMB!!!!!!!

[welsupertramp]

145 moron deserve to die.

[Jefyniggs91MK3]

Guys Guys Chill out the Dislikes Are not people who hate the video but people who playguitar and just finished this Video and decided to quit playing guitar because SRV is fucking amazing.

[Saskatchewan00]

@Jefyniggs91MK3 I didn't, I just disliked the video cos he's shite

[jessehaley615]

[RockstarBassQueen]

u guys are acting like beiber fans have the knowledge and intellectual ability to type SRV in the search bar, they dont, the dislikes come from the posers who think theyre cool if they have stevie in the reccomendations but dont want stevie in their suggestions

[TheRedneck37]

[Metal8Lover]

damn i love this song

[mdog226]

SRV would have sh*t thee John Mayers and two Kenny Wayne Shepherds a day. (Well, truth be told, Mayer would have been more like diarrhea.)

[Dascalmer]

He bends music notes to his will in this song.

[flablub]

He is so good he makes good people look not good.

[bronenalladin]

17.056 like Justin Bieber

[OurnameisLegion66]

And peeps bitch about youtube,WTF??????

[garthhammons]

I wish Youtube had a way to make it when you dislike an awesome video that couldn't possibly be disliked, that you get completely banned from watching quality videos. Only faggoty bieber videos and cats playing with wrapping paper.

[OurnameisLegion66]
