On this day, August 1, 1953, Robert Cray was born.

Hat tip, This Day in Music

1953 - Robert Cray
Robert Cray, singer, Blues guitarist, and five times Grammy Award winner. Cray played with Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Jimmie Vaughan, and Stevie Ray Vaughan at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, Wisconsin, performing 'Sweet Home Chicago'. This was Stevie Ray Vaughan's final performance before he died in a helicopter accident later that night.

I can find a lot of tribute videos, but I'm looking for an original video.

Maybe this will work:

Reminds me of While my Guitar Gently Weeps with all the guitar greats playing on stage (PRINCE!!). That performance brought me to tears.

Thank you, my friend.
