This cat was LEGEND, whether playing some nameless dive on a Friday night or President Bush's Inaugural Ball, The El Mocambo, a charity event (of which he did many), with Buddy Guy, to celebrate a friends birthday, at his eponymous Legend's Club (he's the only Blues Legend left, imho), some State Fair or anywhere: He always gave it all, inexorably drawing-in his audience to journey with him to the planes of greatness to which he ascended when playing, performing. . . Gotta include his performance of 'Texas Flood' played at Bush's Inaugural Ball. Purely epic, & introduced by none other than The Iceman himself: Albert Collins, whom SRV insisted by invited to play; giving credit to fellow Legends who came before him & were his influence & peers.

The normally gruff Mr. King practically gushing with pride over SRV & his imminent rise to stardom, telling him a couple times how he better keep trying, that he'll be watching & had a board or paddle or something & he'll find SRV & come to where he's at & give him whoopin' if he deems necessary. The 'In Session' recording was just as SRV was gaining commercial success & having just released his first major album. I'm a fan of music, especially Texas Blues. Thanks for the suggestion, nonetheless. To watch SRV play Texas Flood immediately reminds me of Albert King, you can't help but notice the recurring licks, especially of Texas Flood when they make appearances throughout so many of his songs; that & his penchant for repeating a lick to where it's almost monotonous, but then becomes seemingly fitting after maybe having been 'over-played'. To watch/hear SRV play is to hear, in many ways, Albert King play. The 'In Session' recording really clarifying this point for those not as familiar. Edited March 27, 2022 by Timmah!

Here is the Original by Buddy Guy back in 1967. I actually like the original better than the Stevie Ray Vaughan version. Stevie Ray Vaughan version seems pretty bland and flat after listening to the original. Original has a lot more soul? to it.
