Yesterday was the anniversary of the legendary guitarist 

STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN

Born on this day: October 3, 1954 - Blues guitar icon Stevie Ray Vaughan (born Stephen Ray Vaughan in Dallas, TX). Happy Birthday to this this blues guitar master on what would have been his 64th Birthday. 

I first came across him on David Bowie work ('Let's Dance'?) and then heard his boogie solo work with instrumental's like 'Rude Mood' and 'Scuttle Buttin'  which sometimes he took way too fast but I guess that's what coke will do for ya! but daring to play Hendrix was an extraordinary achievement and we gasped as he pulled it off and then some, 'Little Wing' became one of his concert set pieces and rightly so . . . . . . dead at 35 in a helicopter crash he was younger than yours truly and always will be . . . . . . !
