OMG no ! Besides Jeff Beck, the only guy I ever saw capable of mixing it up live onstage with SRV.

Anybody know the origins of that YouTube video of Jeff & SRV ?

That really sucks ... one of the best guitarists I've ever seen!

 

[Squisher]

A great loss. Too bad I never saw him live.

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Healey performed this song on the Canadian show It?s Only Rock & Roll! Vaughan met Healey for the first time when he arrived in Toronto to do the show and was introduced to the Canadian guitarist by the producers.

Very true ... When I first saw him play live I expected him to become a legend but it just never happened.

Wow, what a great guitarist...sometimes people are more famous after they are gone, who knows.
RIP
