067 - Stevie Ray Vaughan: Oak Cliff Roots and the Blues Redefined
Before Stevie Ray Vaughan was one of the greatest guitar players in the world, he was a kid growing up in Oak Cliff trying to keep up with his older brother Jimmie. In this episode, we trace Stevie’s early years playing Dallas clubs, the gritty Texas blues sound that defined him, and how Texas Flood launched him onto the national stage. We also talk about the Oak Cliff neighborhood that shaped his intensity—and the legacy he left behind after his life was cut short in 1990.
