I remember that Unplugged. Him and Satriani were lights out. My favorite video I have is of the Montreux festival trips in 82 and 85. Crowd boo'ed SRV the very first time he played there and he played his ass off. David Bowie came back stage and walked into the guys feeling sorry for themselves and said it was the greatest blues set he'd ever seen. I also enjoyed Live at El Mocambo but the Montreux fest really showed how he change from 82 to 85. We'll never know but perhaps he could have been the greatest blues guitarist ever, he was just beginning.
