Shifting gears - Stevie ray Vaughan was lost in a Helicopter crash August 27, 1990. For Blues aficionado's, blues music would never be the same. Stevie was only 35 when he was lost. Stevie helped usher in Guitar Virtuoso's like Bonnie Raitt and made blues music safe for players like Robert Cray and Buddy Guy and others. It's reasonable to believe that Stevie hadn't even come close to reaching the Pinnacle of his Guitar playing or artistry.

Tommy Katona is trying to keep that legacy alive. Tommy's vocal abilities along with his Guitar playing is evocative of Stevie himself. Here is Tommy and his band, Texas Flood at the Bartonville Store, about 35 northwest of Dallas Texas. If you close your eyes and listen, you can hear Stevie Ray, so close are Tommy's Guitar playing chops and vocals. It's great to see everyone dancing and having a good time in the video.
