Summary: 


    Stevie Ray Vaughan was in Albuquerque a few days ago, and deserves a
mention--in a word, he was outstanding.  I've listened to all his albums,
and his live preformance leaves them in the dust.  "Third Stone from the
Sun" (Hendrix) is not one of my favorites, but Vaughan did a great job on
it, and two Hendrix songs in one night gives him a few more points in my
book.
    I really can't compare Vaughan against the vast horde of "greatest
guitarist ever, no question about it" as I don't know too much about most
of them.  All I'm saying is don't count Stevie Ray out until you have heard
him live.
    Vaughan is really talented, especially considering he's also from Tex...
Maybe I'd better not say that :-).
