I saw Stevie at The Orpheum in Boston in October '84. About a third of the way into the show the microphone cut out mid song. Instead of stopping, he and the band just kept playing and jammed for about 5-10 minutes while the stage crew fixed it...at this pace too not some slow jam. When the mic was fixed they slid back into the song seamlessly and kept going. Absolutely amazing. I'll never forget it. He was the greatest.

I used to have to spend weekends with my dad, who was divorced from my mom. I was at his house one miserable weekend, when I stayed up late and by chance, caught this performance on TV. Just an amazing memory, one that elevated me out of my miserable childhood. Was just a kid, and didn’t know who he was, but was so mesmerized by his performance. Had no clue that another human could be so talented at something. Still to this day, I will watch this performance, and am brought back to the amazement I felt as a kid. No matter whether you like his music or not, you can’t do anything but appreciate the obscene amount of talent he had. Sometimes humans take an art form and elevate it to something godlike.

@101Volts

Correct me if I'm wrong at all, but that "breaking out of jail" line might have something to do with this: Stevie's supposed to have said he decided to really _do_ something with his life that day he was working at a janky fast food joint, diner, or restaurant. He fell into a tub of cooking grease. He was taking trash out or something, and was told to stand on a piece of wood over a 55 gallon drum full. Well, that board or whatever it was broke under his weight, and he fell into the drum of used cooking oil. So his supervisor or whoever comes out and starts yelling at him over it instead of being concerned if Stevie's hurt or anything. Stevie eventually thinks something like "There's gotta be a better life for me than _this"_ and he ends up being the famous guitar man we all know. I might have a few details off here, but that's the general direction that I read.

This is so insanely powerful, the guitar sound, the voice, the focus, the savage sequence of notes, and the brutality how he attacks them with those huge hands. There are no words to describe the feeling you get out of this. if there was no videos to prove this kind of playing, no one would believe that someone could play like this. SRV, we will be missing you for centuries.

Favorite Stevie moment this. I encourage my students to listen closely to Stevie Ray (infact I gush like a child), not because anyone can ever play remotely like him but because he changes ones whole perspective on the guitar. Changes your approach. Makes you want to put every single little bit of what you have into expressing yourself, and at least trying to achieve a tiny glimpse into how to really speak with the guitar and connect yourself with your listener's emotions. Still so very sad that he is gone, even all these years later but at the same time such a great story of triumph over the demons. We got to see him at his best. Greatest Of All Time. "My heart goes out to others who are there to make amends"... that says who he was, right there. Looking in the mirror through the eyes of love and realizing he's really looking at a friend. Amazing.
