Stevie Ray Vaughan

Twenty-five years ago today, one of the greatest guitar players who ever lived was tragically killed in a helicopter crash  --  Stevie Ray Vaughan.  I had met him, and knew him slightly during his journey to sobriety.

That's not important.  What is important is how genuine he was, how humble, and yet aware of his ability.

His music still lives, is marveled over, still fresh, still exceptional.

What follows is just a sample  --  go listen to more, get a feel for this exceptional musician
