If I remember correctly, the last SRV tour that passed through my area, which was late '89 or early '90 was a double bill of SRV and Jeff Beck. How I wish I had seen that show now.:mad:


It was in '87 I think, that Jeff B. & SRV played Atlanta together. My (now ex-) wife talked me out of going to that show.

In May or June of 1990 though I got free tickets to see the BB King Blues Festival show, which had SRV in it that year. She didn't want to go to that either, so I went by myself!

That was one of the best shows I've ever been to. SRV was on fire that night! At the end of the show, he & BB & Joe Cocker all jammed together...it was utterly fantastic, of course. I can't begin to describe how great they sounded together.

A month or two later, SRV died in the helicopter crash. I'm soooo glad and thankful that I got to see him...I was always a big fan of his, got his first album shortly after it came out. RIP, Stevie.
