SRV’s Stellar Guitar Solo For “Riviera Paradise” Live
“Riviera Paradise” is a soulful track that’s among Stevie Ray Vaughan’s most loved songs. The solo in this instrumental is quite unforgettable since it’s filled with so much emotion in every note.
During his public performance in the Austin City Limits, Stevie Ray Vaughan told the crowd: “For all the hurting people in the world.”
His guitar solos all have characteristic feels since he likes using heavy strings to create a more distinct sound for his songs. His music is heavily influenced by Albert King who later worked with him on a song.
He also formed his first band, “Blackbird,” at the age of 17.
