stevie ray.......
On this day in 1990, Texas blues musician Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a helicopter crash on the way to Chicago from a concert in Alpine Valley, East Troy, Wisconsin. Vaughan was born in the Oak Cliff section of Dallas on October 3, 1954. His exposure to music began in his childhood, as he watched his big brother, Jimmie, play guitar. Stevie's fascination with the blues drove him to teach himself to play the guitar before he was an adolescent. By the time he was in high school, he was staying up all night playing guitar in clubs in Deep Ellum, a popular entertainment district in Dallas. Vaughan moved to Austin in the 1970s, and by the early 1980s he and his band, Double Trouble, had a solid regional reputation. His career took off in the 1980s, and his work eventually garnered four Grammy Awards. Vaughan was killed at the height of his career. More than 1,500 people, including industry giants such as Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, and Stevie Wonder, attended his memorial service in Dallas.

First song to play on my Ipod this am was Superstition (random play at that) an awesome cover of a Stevie Wonder song. One great talent taken away too soon.

Love SRV! I have all of his CDs (studio, not live). I was supposed to see Eric Clapton in Biloxi either that day or the day after SRV died but EC cancelled the concert because of SRV's death.
Saw him only once at Jazz Fest that year, just a few months before he died.
