I'll second that.  Still have newspaper clippings from this.

His version of Voodoo Child from Austin City Limits still gives me the chills. One of the few artists where I like their version better than Jimi's.

Re: Stevie Ray Vaughan RIP

Yea I didn't have a chance to get on yesterday. So just wanted to put my 2 cents worth. It was like everyone remembering when Kennedy was shot. It still hurts a little you know? Another one of those people you wonder "how much more music did we miss?"  Tin Pan Alley was extra loud!!!

"Is it the new blues mobile or what?"                                                                                                                                                                                                     "Fix the cigarette lighter."
