Yes, there are a few greats out there, but there don’t seem to be nearly as many as there once was. I didn’t mean to imply there there were NO great players out there.

I’m not a blues fan totally, but Stevie’s guitar playing and style is amazing.

Could anyone explain this SRV worship to me??? Cause to me he sure is BORING.
In all the years I've heard people talking about SRV, I've never heard anyone call him boring? Wow! All I can say is that to make that statement you must not like:
1. Great Guitar
2. Great Blues
3. Great R&B
4. Great Rock & Roll
5. Great Acoustic Guitar
If you like any of the above and think SRV is boring, you need to seek professional help. You are beyond what anyone can do for you.
Oh and out of curiosity, who do you like?

As a college student I saw SRV play on the beach in South Padre Island during Spring Break ‘83 while we were in the water surfing fun 3-4’ waves. Talk about cool...

I would put SRV at the top of the Blues pile...Danny Gatton and Lenny Breau would be a toss up for mastering many styles and all around incredible guitarists.

You’re obviously above any explanation that could possibly be given, so I won’t even try. But thanks for gracing everyone with your brief presence on this thread.

Amazing. I'll bet you'll never forget that night.
Alpine Valley is a nice venue if I remember correctly. I saw Joni Mitchell there in the late 70's.

Don’t you love how he dresses? Who could pimp out like that and totally pull it off like SRV? No one.

I think he died in a plane crash or a helicopter crash as he was leaving a concert at Alpine Valley. The aircraft hit some power lines. I think that’s what happened.

Pat Metheny is great, he’s the same age as SRV would have been - AND ME! - that’s how I remember. We’re under 60. LOL! But Pat Metheny is jazz/fusion. I’m actually more of a jazz fan, but who doesn’t love SRV?

“Sad to think of all the great musicians who have died after climbing into light aircraft.”
Indeed, that plus the entertainers who have died in car crashes
