Thanks for the great licks SRV!! :tu

[CigarNut]

Stevie is still a favorite for my family; my kids like him just as much as I do!

[marge796]

A great loss indeed.

20 years!

[Don Fernando]

now playing: live alive!

[Tenor CS]

One of the all time greats.

Can't believe it's been 20 years. Hope Stevie is kickin' it with Jimi and the rest in the big arena in the sky.

that line up makes it almost worth dying for ........

[BlackDog]

IMO Steve was the best. He played Hendrix songs better than Hendrix.

Truly legendary...

In school I followed a band called Storyville - incredible lead vocals by Malford Milligan and the band was Double Trouble, this has been more than 10 years ago but you can tell by the way they spoke that even professional musicians saw him as one of the best ever.

One of my favorites and Texan to boot!

Whew- yeah. I remember exactly where I was that day. I know it's a hoary cliche, but it really does feel like yesterday.

This may sound like an odd compliment, but bear with me: I've heard guys absolutely nail SRV cuts, note for note- spot-on execution- and just sound absolutely lifeless and terrible doing it, despite utter accuracy. That's how elusive is the soul that Stevie poured on with a bucket.

I remember where I could have been the night before....friend had tickets for the Clapton/Robert Cray/SRV concert at Alpine Valley. I went to see my new girlfriend instead. :hn

[Doctorossi]

Ouch! I learned my lesson on that one.

I said "I'll catch him next time" to half a dozen Albert Collins shows. :sad

Yes Siree.....big, big mistake. :r

[STEVE S]

I can't believe it has been 20 years, but he is playing on the biggest stage with some of the greatest!!!!

[The Poet]

IMO Steve was the best. He played Hendrix songs better than Hendrix.

:rolleyes:


Still, SRV was great, and is missed.

I'll never, ever forget the first time I heard SRV: a friend insisted that I listen to Texas Flood. I was a young guitar player at the time, and it forever changed the way I approach the instrument.

[Smokin Gator]

I had the pleasure of seeing SRV 4 times all at Red Rocks in Colorado. Each time was truly memorable. I sure wish God hadn't taken him. I remember I was driving somewhere in the middle of Kansas moving back to Florida from Colorado when I heard about his death. I can't believe it has been 20 years!!!
