Monday Blues

Let us celebrate the brilliance of Stevie Ray Vaughan!  Born in Texas, on October 3, 1954, he died tragically on August 27, 1990, now 20 years ago.  He was a blues master, possessed with an ability few people in human history have had.  Authentic blues mixed with talent is hard to come by in this world; Stevie Ray had it all and more.

Here he is performing his own “Texas Flood” from a live show in 1985.
