31 Reasons Why Stevie Ray Vaughan Sucks?

March 25, 2018 by admin 55 Comments

Have you heard of this Romeo Rose? This is absolutely ABSURD. I remember reading his gear setup over a year ago on MySpace. He looked like a Stevie Ray Vaughan fan as he dresses like him, his gear setup would lead you to believe that he is after the Stevie Ray Vaughan tone, he “plays” the blues *rolls eyes* and I also think he is from Texas!?

Is this ridiculous or what? *sniff* I smell jealousy. I hate to even show the video on my blog here. but take a look at it. Perhaps send him some stfu mail if you feel that urge.

Update: It seems the original video we had on here was removed from Youtube. If you can find it let us know in the comments.

If you don’t know who Romeo Rose is yet here you go:

      Stevie Ray Vaughn was a great guitarist and bluesman. Blues isn’t generally my highest preference, but Stevie did a good job at it. Whether it was strictly naturally bottled talent, or ton’s of work, it does work. However, it does so based on the same standards as anything else, quality. Generally stevie had great timing, a good sounding tone and mix, and more interesting phrasing which was clear, articulate, and a bit more embellished than the standard blues. Still, He did fall a little too far into that trap of making everything sound the same. His solo’s tended to rehash the several dozen or so motif’s and concepts over and over, and even many of the tunes were too much just “straight ahead blues”. However, to his credit, he did seem to change it up a little, but still over all, that’s my biggest criticism against vaughn. He never seemed to evolve much as a player, perhaps as a person who appears to have truly moved towards sobriety, but not as a musician as much.

      I put Eric Clapton in this same basket, except he clearly went further out of the strict blues teritorry than Stevie. But clapton never really evolved much as a guitar player or musician. His chops got a little cleaner, his equipment drastically improved (to this day his 80’s/90’s strat with the midboost and lace sensors is one of the coolest strat sounds I’ve ever played), but his chops, phrasing, and song writing (in fact, Clapton does far less actual songwriting than his career would allude) really haven’t improved or gotten more original. I am surprised he is even able to stay slightly interested in music given that he has been playing exactly the same lines for all of these years. Still, he has some catching song’s, and when it works, it works for clapton. What guitarist doesn’t at least go through a Clapton phase, after all.

      Still, with all of the thing’s I liked about Clapton and Vaugh, they were alway’s paying homage to these earlier blues men who were supposed to be the “greats”. So, when I finally started to take their recommendations and listen to Robert Johnson, or T-Bone (the guy is named after a steak?) or Muddy Waters, even BB King and especially Buddy Guy, I can’t express in words how let down I was. The quality drops off a cliff. That was my short trip through the blues. The music was depressing, but not in an emotive kind of way…but in a listening to this stuff is a prison sentence kind of way.

      SRV was pretty bloody average at what he did. He should have played Jazz and he would have been more of a contributor to well lets face it clichéd blah blah this and that. No he could play guitar but really his career had peaked way before he died.
