Awesome!! Thanks 4 posting. I was at this show with my bro at age 15 (my first big concert). Blues festival w/ BB King on 6-19-85 @ the most beautiful outdoor concert venue in the US. Can't even begin to describe how incredible an experience it was. Good times....

wow.. that must have been amazing :)

Musically, my favorite song. And by far my favorite rendition.

I love the point near 6:18 where he plays one note for eight solid measures, wrenching every bit of passion and emotion he can out of it. My jaw literally dropped the first time I heard it.

[claptonhendrix1]

also my favorite part..... i love this song so much.

Anyone know what he says at 1:47? "Life is a wonderful..."

[claptonhendrix1]

" Life is a wonderful thing" I think

This was the best concert I have ever attended! SRV, BB King, Albert King @ Red Rocks! with my brother (now deceased) and sister-in-law - doesn't seem possible that it was so long ago. Thank you for posting claptonhendrix1 - wonderful memories of a wonderous night!

no one is better than SRV. nobody

[texblues85]

WOW! The best part of this, is at 6:15, when he hits and holds ONLY ONE

 F*&*%%ING BENDING! Amazing energy!!

[anyazzzzz]

there are guitar heroes who maybe are supposed to be even better, technically speaking, but this man....he makes that guitar sing. This is a wonderful piece of art.

@slama32 Oh Ya! I also saw him in 1988 at an outdoor show in Manchester N.H. with Joe Cocker. It frikin blew me away. Big loss to music. R.I.P. S.R.V.

[sinprelic]

almost 6 minutes into the song i got goosebumps like i never had in my life. sitting here in a dark room, i think i just have the best 9 minutes of experience out of anyone in the world at this moment.
