On the 25th anniversary of his death, many took the time to remember the guitar god Stevie Ray Vaughan and pay tribute to his legendary career as a blues musician.

Fender, the American guitar manufacturer, paid tribute to Vaughn in a post on its website. The company credited Vaughan for spearheading the 1980s blues revival with his fusion of Muddy Waters' blues style and Jimi Hendrix's rock sensibilities.

"Vaughan is still revered by blues purists and rock fans alike as one of the most influential electric blues guitarists in history," Fender wrote in its tribute.

Vaughn passed away at just 35 years old in a helicopter crash while leaving a concert in East Troy, Wisc. on Aug. 27, 1990, Guitar World reported. He played a set that night at the Alpine Valley Musical Theater with his older brother and fellow guitarist Jimmie, along with blues greats Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy and Robert Cray.

The Dallas-born guitar legend and founder of the band Double Trouble was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame earlier this year, and Jimmie reminisced about the most important aspects of Vaughn's life.

"He would always do stuff you just wouldn't be ready for," Jimmie told Rolling Stone. "And it was sweet. His sweetness would come out. He gave, like, a 15-minute talk about love to these guys. And they're all like, 'Well, what do you think about guitars?' And he's like, 'I think we need to love one another.' He wasn't quoting scripture or anything, but we wouldn't have been surprised!"

During Vaughan's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, Jimmie joined guitarists John Mayer, Gary Clark Jr. and Doyle Bramhall II to pay tribute to Vaughn, Rolling Stone reported. Together, they performed his hit song "Pride and Joy."
