SRV is sorely missed.

I ran across this little gem on Youtube a couple months ago so I thought I would share. I saw SRV on this same tour about 4 months later at the Omaha Music Hall (which no longer exists) a small theater that held about 4k that had amazing acoustics. It was first come first serve on seating so my friends and I got there early and snagged seats in the third row behind the orchestra pit directly in the middle in front of SRV. I had only gotten into SRV in the few months previously and had just purchased his 3 records. My buddy who had seen him previously that I went with told me “you are not gonna believe what you are about to see” I think my jaw was on the floor from the time he walked on stage until the end of “Aint Gone and Gave Up on Love”. I felt like my hair was blown back. This is young Stevie in 1985 in all of his cocaine and Crown Royal sweating glory. This particular show is in my top 5 favorites of over 60 concerts that I have seen over the years. Enjoy!
