Stevie Ray Vaughan was respected by the best. He had an influence on the electric blues that many other musicians can’t even come close to. So why not take a few minutes to listen to SRV jam with some of the best guitar slingers the blues had to offer. I’ll start off with a collaboration with the great Robert Cray, then move onto a live recording with Eric Clapton and finally a powerhouse performance from BB King, Albert King and SRV himself. These are just a few of the stellar collaborations that SRV was involved with, so feel free to share some of your favorites in the comment section below. Enjoy!

Let’s start off with SRV and Robert Cray. Check out their rendition of “New Blood” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoHvs6_2KmA.

      Man, Oh Man, the talent that was on that stage in the 3rd vid was unfathomable! Looked like a Good ‘Ole Chicago BluesFest to me. Just watching and hearing that magic happen is thrill enough, but to be a player up there, caught up in all them Blues, would be a thrill of a lifetime. Great stuff, Griff! Really dig what you do, and I’ve caught a number of your stage performances too. You not only talk the talk, you definitely Walk the Walk with the best of ’em. Much admiration and much appreciation…Thanks!
