BB King & Friends – Why I Sing the Blues
BB King had some FRIENDS!
Stevie Ray Vaughan – Rude Mood
From his January 30, 1990 MTV Unplugged show. You can find the whole thing on YouTube, and it's worth watching.

Stevie Wonder, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jody Watley, Salt ‘n’ Pepa, and Brown Mark – Superstition
I haven't actually watched this clip all the way through, but I'll spin it anyway based on the lineup alone.
1989
This may skew into "live...?" territory (and yes, we do have a tag for that one).
Stevie Ray Vaughan – Lenny
Early in the year we got married, my eventual wife gave me a ticket to see Stevie Ray Vaughan. It was a birthday present, and we were so poor we could literally afford just one ticket. I cleared it with my boss to have the night off, but at the last minute he made me work anyway. Told me I could show up or take a hike, there were plenty more where I came from. So I sold the ticket to a friend, who raved about the concert. Best he ever saw.
Just four months later, Stevie Ray Vaughan died in a helicopter crash in East Troy, Wisconsin. Now, twenty-one years is a long time to carry a grudge, but for the life of me I can't seem to let go of this one. And I probably never will.
From the Texas Flood album, Vaughan wrote Lenny and Love Struck Baby as tributes to his eventual ex-wife and by all accounts the one true love of his life, Lenora Bailey Vaughan. So here's to true love and to Stevie Ray, the best damn guitar player I never saw.
