On the 25th anniversary of Stevie Ray Vaughn's death, Bob Seger says he wrote "Hey Gypsy," a cut from his Ride Out record, in memory of the blues virtuoso.
"I wrote kind of as a tribute to Stevie, who I've always been a huge fan of," Seger says in a video tribute.
"I remember the last time I saw [him]; it was at an Eric Clapton concert. He traded solos with Eric on 'Before You Accuse Me,' and they did it for, like, 15 minutes. It was probably my favorite guitar-hero moment of all time."
"I wanted to do something to honor his memory and how much he meant to me. I think I captured the essence of it," he adds.
Seger's album, Ride Out, was released last year.
