Long version of Texas Flood by stevie ray vaughn ! Texas Flood is an electric blues album by blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and his band Double Trouble, released in 1983.
Although "Texas Flood" has three verses of lyrics, the song is more of a prolonged guitar solo, allowing Vaughan to show off his characteristic electric blues style. During live shows, he would often play portions of this song behind his back, arousing an enthusiastic crowd response. Stylistically, "Texas Flood" is structured around the common three chord blues progression. Written and performed in the key of G (sounding F# because of Vaughan's tuning), it is in 12/8 time, or compound time[1], which gives it a "slow burning" feel that is common in Texas blues.

@buster3600 It was a helicopter not a plane.

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?
-
He really was pretty good wasn't he...lol. Close second only to some dude named Jimi in my opinion.
-
the first 2 minutes and 6 seconds of this song absolutely kicks ass!
-
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.

@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.

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