Stevie Ray Vaughan & Buddy Guy - Champagne and Reefer (1/3)

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Buddy Guy jamming on Champagne and Reefer, written by Muddy Waters. In total it's almost 26 minutes long, so I had to split it up into 3 parts. This is one of the coolest jam sessions I've ever heard, and it's also great for you guitar players to play along with and practice your chops (use Cm pent. scale).

This was recorded on July 30th, 1989 (Buddy's birthday) at the Legends Club in Chicago, IL.

Who cares who's best? I enjoy the hell out of Stevie's playing, it was consistent and comfortable and could be quite moving.

Saying who is best on guitar is like saying who looks best in a bikini at South Beach, it's just not possible.

Enjoy life, music, family and friends everyone!

God knows I love Stevie..First heard him in my friends room when I was 15 .He changed he direction of my guitar playing and is still the standard to me.But through Stevie I discovered Buddy Guy and I learned where it all came from.I think from Hubert Sumlin to Buddy to Stevie...just my theory.

Wheres the other two?

@MrRoadkill50 Actually Stevie's biggest influence and only real hero was Albert King (his older bro was a different story). I think everybody who knows a thing about SRV knows that too

[Jesrama1]

@kvone2kx No, even then you wouldn't be able to objectively say who's the best because it would still depend on your personal taste. Have ever noticed that a universal definition for "best" and "better" guitar player doesn't exist? Just like there's no universal definition for beauty

[kvone2kx]

@Zboots i agree, the only way you could ever say whos the best guitarist ever is if they all palyed the same song at the same everything, only then can you compare whos best and it would be imposible because im sure wed all sound the same haha

[BobMcboyle]

@Zboots correct! best actually does not exist, best is an objective term and music is in the ear of the beholder....

[Dixie869]

@Zboots I know I went to see Buddy Guy and BB King was awesome.It does not matter who is the best. Those are gifts God gave all them!!!!!!!! When I went to see BB and Buddy Stevie had passed and he told on stage

that he felt the best ever was Stevie Ray. It was a awesome thing to see I wish I could share pictures with you

but they did not allow cameras. I JUST LOVE THE BLUES!!!!!!

[MrRoadkill50]

Its not about who is better, the fact is, if it wasnt for Stevie, Buddy wouldnt have picked back up his guitar, but he was inspired by Stevies style, and SRV's biggest influence was buddy guy, so without eachother the blues would be missing a chapter.... RIP SRV, Buddy keep rockin bro your a legend that still shreds...
