Long version of Texas Flood by stevie ray vaughn ! Texas Flood is an electric blues album by blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and his band Double Trouble, released in 1983.Although "Texas Flood" has three verses of lyrics, the song is more of a prolonged guitar solo, allowing Vaughan to show off his characteristic electric blues style. During live shows, he would often play portions of this song behind his back, arousing an enthusiastic crowd response. Stylistically, "Texas Flood" is structured around the common three chord blues progression. Written and performed in the key of G (sounding F# because of Vaughan's tuning), it is in 12/8 time, or compound time[1], which gives it a "slow burning" feel that is common in Texas blues.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Flood_%28song%29

chikleboy231 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - this guys singing sounds similar to john mayer, but i guess thats ok since SRV was a big influence on John Mayer

monster88888 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - I hear Albert King in his playing here with those massive bends.

dr4ncer Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - john mayes singing sound like his.........

pickintough Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - SRV and John Mayer sound nothing alike when it comes to singing. You have SRV who is very raw and rough...then you have John Mayer who is a pop singer for the most part. I'm not saying Mayer isn't good b/c he is great but the comparison between the two is incompatible. If your looking for the most distinct blues guitarist (vocal and guitar) you've found him here in SRV.

duke0965 Says:

Jul 6, 2008 - Guitar playing doesn't get any better than this! By far one of the best performances you'd ever want to see. I saw SRV & Jeff Beck live right before he got killed. My ears are still ringing. It was an awesome show.
