Day 27 - Six Strings Down

Alpine Valley August 27th 1990 is it really 21 years since that sad day when all us music fans particularly those who appreciate the Blues and the great guitarists associated with it lost the best ever.

o I make no apologies to start todays post with a tribute song to Stevie Ray Vaughan and the many other Blues artists that heaven as called home. It was wrote and performed by Stevies brother Jimmie with a little help from a few stars such as Eric clapton, BB King, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, Dr John, Bonnie Rait, etc.
