Great guitar sound and solo! So emotional!!

@shelia-king: Love to see you enjoy this!!

Tons of thick phasey goodness.  Love the effects!

On this day, the 25th anniversary of Stevie Ray Vaughn's death, I wanted to recognize the huge influence Stevie has had on me and so many other inspired musicians here.   Stevie was one of the greatest blues guitarists ever, combining super rhythm playing, strong vocals, flair, and an aggressive soloing that followed the pentatonic based approach that Jimi Hendrix used, often with serious distortion, superb wah wah, and a unique ability to bend notes.  SRV had it all - until his untimely death in a helicopter crash following a blues festival in Wisconsin, where Eric Clapton was almost on the helicopter too.

So I've put together an extensive collection of blues from many of my favorite musicians here, all of whom have been deeply inspired by the music and genius of Stevie Ray. Many of these tracks I am playing keyboards on and others have been selected because of their blues authenticity and influence by SRV.  Friends included on this collection are:
Tom Adams
BigMamaDee
Joe Bongiovanni
Mirko Borach
BronzedGod
Zach Brown
Derek Cornett
Frank Fois
GuitarPhil7
Willie Johnson Jr.
Scott Jones
Rey King
Gavin McGough
Mike Orzek
Marco Oversteegen
Johnny Pugh
Al Schulman
Ian Tait
Telefan
Daniele Turani
Justin Valente
Dan van den Berg

Thanks to all who have invited me to add my keyboard blues sound to these and other tracks.  Hopefully this music will inspire you as much as it has me and others here on SC.  We thank you all for your time listening, for your comments and for your important shares.

Thank You Stevie Ray Vaughn - SRV inspired blues from SoundCloud Friends

¿Qué es lo  que sabes tú?
¿Qué es lo que sabe esa
 sonrisa sucia?

Secretos  culpa civil.
Sobrevivir no es solo 
cosa de gente vil 

¿Alguien a delatar?

A qué no sabes
dónde ni cuándo
te vi.

Olvido o paz mental
Los que dudamos
nos devora
una falta letal

¿Algo que declarar?

A qué no sabes
dónde ni cuándo
te vi.

___

What do you know?
What does that dirty smile know?

Civil fault secrets.
Survival is not just for vile people

Someone to give away?

You don't know
where or when
I saw you.

Forgetfulness or peace of mind
Those of us who doubt
devours us a lethal foul

Something to declare?

You don't know
where or when
I saw you.

Inspired by the spanish film "Death of a Cyclist" ("Muerte de un ciclista" , 1955). A pair of lovers accidentally kills a cyclist on the road and flees. Guilt and fear of discovery will make them uneasy.

Sky is Crying - with Justin Valente / guitar and bass

Jazzy blues collaboration with blues axeman Joseph Bongiovanni, who brings it home with an accompanying B3 organ groove, in the swinging style of jazz organ great Jimmy Smith.  Think you'll like this one.  Always fun working with Joe, who was just invited to the International Blues Competition in Memphis.  He can play his ass off...

The Texas Bluebell Blues - featuring Tom Adams (Weekend Open Collab)

Mike Orzek and I thought we'd break out some blues here, and created this 12 Bar blues to let off a little steam.  (12 am Bar Blues).  It's the standard form for the blues, and we've got a lot of guitar and organ in this one.  Mike has done so many fine collaborations with people on SoundCloud, and his command and understanding of the blues is impressive.  Some of that is from his years living in Dallas, Texas, where he lived just a few blocks from a serious blues bar and was able to perform there regularly.  

Check out Mike's extensive gallery at https://soundcloud.com/lando-orz .  

Thanks as always for your time listening, your comments and your shares.

12 (am) Bar Blues - with Mike "Land of Orz" Orzek

Stumbled across this gem.  Never been a huge Bob Dylan fan but now i am getting into his music.  His music is just special. Hope you enjoy my take of this song.

one more cup of coffee_{Bob Dylan Cover}

I love to play guitar and making music. Doesn't matter how good you are. Music is a beautiful expression of yourself, its a piece of art, emotions and it brings people together. Anyway my father drove my mother nuts in the seventies with jimi songs on a phonograph record while she was pregnant with me. Some of jimis sound and music stuck with me after i was born and i like it since then. Im inspired by a lot of guitarists/musicians...hard to name em all right here. Beside Jimi i like guitarplayers like Johny Lee Hooker, Eric Clapton, SRV, Walter Trout, Jeff Healey, Mark Knophler, Jimmy Page, Guthrie Govan, Alex Hutchings, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, BB King, Sam Cooke, Muddy Waters, Toni Abasi, Matt Scofield, Robben Ford, Joe Walsh, Philip Sayce, Kurt Cobain, Brian May, Jeffrey Lee Pierce, Joe Bonamassa, KWS, Lenny Kravitz, John Frusciante, David Gilmour etc...Most of all i like to play the blues, blues rock, funk, psychedelic rock, and rock. Hopefully you guys like it...
