Have any Europeans on the site heard of Stevie, or is it just an american thing?

Are you kidding? SRV is one of the most famous guitarists of all time. he has fans everywhere in the world. In the small town I live in (Frome in the South of England) I know local bands that play Stevie's songs, and I teach his stuff to my guitar students. He was my favourite guitar player and I still remember when I heard he had died.
I remember working in a record shop in about 1983 (?) and my friend saying "you just have to hear this album - you won't believe the guitar playing". That was Texas Flood, and I still can't believe the guitar playing!
I have a replica of Number One and loads of SRV dvds (not all legal!) and albums/cds/tapes.
There will never be another like him.
All the best

SRV
His music: a mystery.
His death: a tragedy.
In silence: a fan.
