    It was twenty years ago today that Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a helicopter crash. For the young 'uns on this forum who don't know what they're missing, have a little of this:

    Yowsa! :cool:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    ―Oscar Wilde predicting Social Media, in The Picture of Dorian Gray

    SRV is/was a legend. Amazing sound out of his axe, just a brilliant player. 20 years, gone too soon.

    It made the news. Saddam had entered Kuwait and The Wall was played in Berlin a month earlier. I was staying with my family down in Wexford and through wireless RTE or BBC portable tv news a message that SRV had died. That's how famous he became in the what turned out to be his last year.
