STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN LIVE: PLAY HARD & FLOOR IT! Stevie Ray Vaughan’s uniquely eclectic and fiery style sounded like no other guitarist, regardless of genre - a leading light in American blues. STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN LIVE: PLAY HARD & FLOOR IT! showcases the guitar master’s career with some of his finest performances caught on tape. Friend and Double Trouble bandmate drummer Chris Layton gives context to the performances in on-camera interviews. The special begins with Stevie Ray's debut at the 1982 Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland – an ‘electric’ unknown added to an acoustic blues night at the last minute. The songs were met by boos from an audience expecting a laid back evening of unadorned music, but today's audiences experience an archival gem of a star’s early promise on “Pride & Joy” and “Texas Flood.” Almost three years to the day, Stevie Ray headlined the 1985 Montreux festival to raves from a sold-out crowd, highlighted in the special with “Cold Shot,” “Scuttle Buttin’” and “Say What!” At Toronto's tiny El Mocambo club, the historic venue hosted an intense Stevie Ray set in 1983, living up to his motto of PLAY HARD & FLOOR IT! with “Love Struck Baby,” and Jimi Hendrix’s “Voodoo Chile (Slight Return).” The special closes with performances from the height of Stevie Ray’s career in his hometown of Austin, Texas in 1989, a year before his tragic death. Fans enjoyed pure magic that night including his #1 hit “Crossfire,” the instrumental “Riviera Paradise,” “Tightrope” and “The House is Rockin’,” all preserved in this special as a tribute to his talent. Song List “Pride & Joy” (Montreux 1982) “Texas Flood” (Montreux 1982) “Cold Shot” (Montreux 1985 with Johnny Copeland) “Scuttle Buttin’” (Montreux 1985) “Say What!” (Montreux 19885) “Love Struck Baby” (El Mocambo - Toronto 1983) “Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)” (El Mocambo - Toronto 1983) “Tightrope” (Austin 1989) “Riviera Paradise” (Austin 1989) “Crossfire” (Austin 1989) “The House is Rockin’” (Austin 1989) A presentation of WLIW21 in association with WNET.ORG.

Before you can free the music in yourself, you need to clear the roadblock that is holding you back from expressing the music freely. Many guitar students struggle with their freedom of expression when playing blues solos, mainly because they believe that ‘blues is an easy style’ and because of this they never focus on blues guitar technique. This mistake causes the student to only get partial results when improvising and lays also at the root of why many struggle to play blues guitar solos effortless. How To Take Your Mind Of Guitar Technique Guitar technique should be practiced in order to take your mind of technique. Once you focused on the right exercises then you will find yourself in a place where you don’t have to actively think about technique anymore (even when playing the most challenging passages, licks, riffs or solos).

The Blues Foundation Archives: Immersion and Preservation
The Blues Foundation Archives: Immersion and Preservation Stephanie Swindle Blues music, while still experienced through live performance, should also be documented and preserved in order to honor and promote one of the world's most essential genres of music. The influence of the blues tradition upon rock and roll artists of the nineteen fifties and sixties as well as upon the contemporary R&B and hip-hop musicians is evident in their similar subject matter, rhythmic underpinnings, and featured instrument - the guitar. Therefore, educating the public and providing scholars and fans with the resources to further appreciate and understand the blues is a significant task. The Blues Foundation is a non-profit organization devoted specifically to the preservation perpetuation of the blues. In its possession is twenty-five years worth of archival material that is in desperate need of preservation. The goal for this project is to work in conjunction with the staff and Executive Director of The Blues Foundation in order to write a grant proposal for a National Endowment for the Humanities preservation grant award. Organizing its archives, which is divided into photographs, autographed guitars, audio, video, concert, compact discs and cassettes, and miscellaneous, is the first step in a long process of preservation. In order to organize its media, The Blues Foundation will be served by submitting a grant proposal to the National Endowment for the Humanities to receive funding necessary to undertake such an elaborate project. Due to The Blues Foundation's vast amount of archival wealth, the Foundation and this project, in particular, merit NEH funding consideration.
