The combination of a supreme groove built on absolute precision (a la 80s King Crimson) mixed with the wild and untamed emotion of David Torn. What more could you want? Song gets going at 1:10.

Hi Michael, here is Sebastian from Cologne, Germany. My first video (request) on this platform. Hope to post my first own video in the beginners course soon :) I am enjoying your reacts so much, it finally led me to buying a guitar and get started myself.
This video has been recorded 1984 in Austin, showing my all time favorite Stevie Ray Vaughan, his brother Jimmie Vaughan, Angela Strehli, and Kim Wilson. Great emotional solo by Stevie, you see all the band members are fully into it, feeling the music every second. I like the Jazz elements Stevie shows in his play. There are so many little things to observe, such as the vocalist hesitating to step in for her second part, to not interrupt Stevie's solo. Keep up the blues!
I've been working on this one myself as part of my finger-picking training. I'm certain you've heard it - I would guess that everyone over 30 has heard it - but I would like to see your break-down of some of the movements.
If anything were to happen to me, be it old age, or something else, this will be the one song my brain will always remember. I plan to learn this song and be able to play it until I die. As someone who has watched a lot of your videos over the years, this song is right up your alley. Hits straight to the heart!
I am somehow just being turned on to this band, but they have already blown my mind. Would love to see a reaction on them. Thanks!
