Eric Clapton and Joe Bonamassa are paying tribute to the late Stevie Ray Vaughn who died in a helicopter crash 25 years ago. Clapton recalled the first time he heard SRV: “I was so bowled over, so in love with this guy that was playing on stage from the heart completely. I started to feel ashamed of what I was going to do.” “Paying dues and playing the blues best sums up the early days of Stevie Ray Vaughan’s career as he left his home in Dallas, Texas to follow his older brother Jimmie Vaughan down to Austin in the mid-’70s,” syndicated radio show In The Studio with Redbeard: The Stories Behind History’s Greatest Rock Bands added. Joe Bonamassa concludes, “Stevie’s legacy is he was the guy who could put on a guitar, any guitar, play three notes and have people hooked . . . That you can’t teach.” Copyright(c) 2015 RTTNews.com.
