That man would blow Prince off the stage when it comes to lead guitar with feeling...Taste ..and Chops...RIP Stevie!

Stevie >>>>> Prince on the axe.

I was just at the mall, running a few errands, when I walked into this shop that specializes in big-screen TVs.

"Hello, sir!" said the salesman, greeting me enthusiastically. "You're just in time. We're preparing our presentation in our back showroom. Right this way, please."

"Thanks, I appreciate it," I responded. "But, you see. I'm here to watch Stevie Ray Vaughan."

On their doorway set, they were playing his latter set from "Austin City Limits." Since I have it already and didn't want to be rude, I watched for a few bars, then left the store.

Stevie Ray could put Prince to shame with his style of play because that was his primary instrument, while we know P plays multiple things. Stevie did venture a wee bit into pop style music with his work for David Bowie, but He was a major player in the Blues rock category.
