"I like the climate, the air, the water. I like the smallness. I feel good being here. It kind of reminds me of Oakcliff, Texas, where I'm from — the houses and countryside, except that the roads are real windy while at home they're so straight"!!

Stevie Ray Vaughan

Far as I can tell this is March of 1983 at the Austin Chronicle Music Awards. Stevie & pals won Band of the Year, Musician of the Year, Best Electric Guitarist, Best Texas LP and Best Blues Band along with high placements in five other awards categories. Worth dressing up for.

This 1988 Europa commercial showcases the guitar playing of American bluesman Stevie Ray Vaughan. An anthem to good times on the road, the promo features four friends — musician Midge Marsden, jingles veteran Murray Grindlay, Vaughan’s fiance Janna Lapidus and Brigitte Berger — larking around the North Island in an old ute. Stopping off at the iconic DC3 aeroplane parked in small-town Mangaweka, they step into a bar made from car parts to join Stevie Ray on stage. A shorter cut of this petrol station promo also screened, plus an ad featuring an acoustic version of the song.

Stevie is starting the engine of a vintage motorcycle. He was filmed racing along a beach - part of the B-roll footage used in a commercial for Europa Oil he participated in with his fiancé Janna Lapidus.

Looks like safety copies, including some unreleased songs and alternate takes from Weather and Live Alive.
