Texas Flood - Stevie Ray Vaughan

In an effort to introduce good music to people everywhere, I am starting a new feature on this blog. This new feature is called Culture Corner, and with it I will attempt periodically to post videos of excellent music. In today's culture, there is little truly good music coming to us. This is not to say that there is not good music--just that one will not find much of it in pop culture. To do my part to alleviate this matter, I am beginning Culture Corner.

Much of the music I share on Culture Corner will likely be the blues because it is so sorely underrepresented in today's music; however, it is one of the best forms of music in my opinion. Perhaps I will explain why I feel this way in a future blog, but before I do that, I will show you my reasons...

The very first song I want to share with you is Texas Flood by Stevie Ray Vaughan. He was simply the best. He inspired an entire generation of guitar players (most definitely including me). He played with a passion that no one could equal. Although his life was cut short by a helicopter crash, I can only hope that his music will live on forever. Enjoy.
