Remembering the late, great Stevie Ray Vaughan 27 years after his death



27 years ago today.

It's been 27 years since Texas guitar great Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a Bell 206 helicopter crash in East Troy, Wis., on Aug. 27, 1990.

Before he died he played a final gig with Eric Clapton and Robert Cray at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre.

Vaughan and Double Trouble's set included hits like "Pride and Joy" and Crossfire" played with their textbook ferocity.

Clapton was the next and final act on the bill.
