I have a broad range of interests, from Jazz Trio to EDM, but I want to share what I feel is one of the most engaging video performances ever.
If you are a guitarist, you will fully appreciate every aspect of this. Pretty sure everyone else will like it too! Talk about leaving it all on the stage!

I saw SRV perform at the Oriental Club, a local bar in Lawton, OK. It was Oct or Nov 1970.

I had a brief conversation with him as he was setting up a poster outside the front door in the afternoon.
It was homemade, lime-green, about 3'x4', done in free-hand with glitter. He was setting it up on an artist's easel type of stand. AFAIK, he was not famous at the time, just making a living as a musician. I asked him about the poster and he said "Yeah, that's me! Stevie Ray Vaughan!" I asked him what kind of music he plays and he asked if I like Hendrix. I said that Hendrix was my favorite. He said, "I play just like him, why don't you come to see me tonight?" I told him that I would be there. It was a thrilling performance, very much like the one in this video link, with a very similar club feel. 

Oh, and he was dressed similar to the video. I couldn't decide if he was a frontiers-man, a pirate, a river boat gamble or a fancy gun-slinger.
Turned out he was a guitar-slinger!
