Stevie Ray Vaughan's final concert

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble, Alpine Valley Music Theater East Troy WI, August 26, 1990. Voodoo Child (Slight Return). SRV's last song with DT, and THEY were smoken! Stevie played one more song that night, a jam (Sweet Home Chicago) with his brother Jimmie Lee Vaughan, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, & Eric Clapton. However at 11+ minutes I could not use that song on YT (And there was no way I was going to cut it to fit). The sound quality on VC(SR) is better than SHC. That and the fact that this is an amazing version of the song makes me happy I used it for this video. I once read an article in a guitar magazine where SRV was being intervened immediately after his set, and he showed his friend his goose-bumps. Don't be surprised if you get them while watching and listening. So sit back, turn the lights down low, the volume way up, and prepare to get your mind blown! "Heaven done called another blues- stringer back home." SRV you are missed! Produced By: The Department of Redundancy Department Productions. 2007

Erica Clapton shook over Jimmie Hendrix before Vaugh was ever known. Not saying Vaugh wasn't a good guitar player. When I first heard him, I personally thought he was black.(lol). And I have alot of his songs, but Jimmie made alot if guitar player shake when he reformed rock and roll...

I didn't get to see him but I was just heading to bed when my local radio station out of Appleton WI came on with breaking news that his helicopter had crashed and SRV had died. I cried for our loss and I sit in awe whenever I listen to him play. Rest in peace my brother, you are missed.

SRV one in a billion

Even Eric Clapton stood in his dressing room back stage shaking in awe of this force from heaven and felt ashamed that he had to come out after him, knowing in his heart that he could never reach the same level.

I met him the day he died while we were playing the Alpine Valley golf course before going to the show. I sliced to the right of the fairway right by the back stage picnic area. He came down by the fence when we were yelling his name. Super nice guy, very humble. He signed my ticket for the show and I still have it today. It is my greatest possession.

srv was god just a shame the helicopter pilot was a wanker didnt check he had enough fuel for the flight and killed a blues legend

@HKmatmadness It was a Spiritual Experience getting to see them play up close in old school blues clubs back in Dallas. In '81 I saw him set the stage right tweeter on Fire! playing Voodoo Child Slight Return at Mother Blues . My date & I got to go them out the stage door & chat them up while the club got another tweeter & aired out the smoke with fans.You should try an' Astral Project during sleep to The Otherside & see him play a concert & bring that memory back with you to your waking world.
