I had this playing in the shop when he returned from lunch one day.
"Wow...no one could do it like he did." I said, "nope... that Stevie Ray was really something!"
That was a fun moment.

(69,812 posts)3. I've listened to cuts by SVR, and would have sworn it was Jimi. I used to go to concert shores in Austin ...

I had the good fortune to see SRV & Double Trouble in concert at Red Rocks, with B.B. King, Albert King, and Bobby Blue Bland.
My late idiot brother left early, muttering "he's no Jimi Hendrix." What a fool.
