BTW, to jam with Jimi was one of the greatest pleassures for Mick Taylor in the 60s, he told me that personally.
For those who are new here at the board I do recommend to check our space for Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones Jimi like a Rolling Stone, it was updated some weeks ago.
Wow, the Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan hythm sections!! Does anybody in California is planning to attend? Please tape it!!! |

The SRV rythm section really sucks, IMHO! I think they sound very dull and boring. I also think SRV is very egoistic in his playing. But, to hear MT play with Hendrix old mates would be awesome!!!!

Is Noel redding still around...he and Mitch Mitchell were awesome. I like the way Lenny kravitz tries to rip off Hendrix... |

Yeah, SRV's playing is really egoistic. He's been playing up there with a great band for ten years and haven't released nothing from those sessions! Dammit, he's keeping it all to himself! Any boots available from there? |

I saw SRV in Gainesville at Univ. of Florida circa 1983 and this cat was absolutely fantastic! The dude had what appeared to be a well -worn guitar and played as I imagine his idol, Jimi H. would have. Very sad to lose a gift like SRV... |

I have a friend in LA and asked him if he would go and tape...don't hold your breath but I'll try to get him to do it.
Will let you know. |

Sorry to tell you this but Mick will be backed up by SRV rhythm section. For me this is great, that was a very good rhythm section.

I don't find it egoistic. Is it cause he plays so much and so flashy? I don't really give a damn cause he is beyond awesome. Mick Taylor is great, but even he couldn't do in his prime what SRV did. But if Mick T. is a preferred or favourite guitarist for someone it's okay. But don't anyone consider him more talented, amazing, appealing or better at touch or speed on guitar. SRV is one of the best blues and rock guitarists ever. As a lead player. As rhythm players go, Keef is the best followed by guys like Pete Townshend (he can really strum like a madman). But SRV ain't bad at all to me. |
