3 CLASSIC STEVIE RAY BROADCASTS ON 3 CDS – FROM 1984, 1985 & 1986
Despite his mainstream career only lasting seven years, terminated by the
tragic helicopter crash that killed him along with four others in 1990, Stevie
Ray Vaughan had
played the clubs and bars of Texas for nigh on 15 years before his big break at
1982s Montreux Festival, and his appearance on David Bowies Lets Dance album
the
following year.
This 3 CD collection features a triumvirate of live Stevie Ray shows, all taken from FM Broadcasts, performed throughout the period when his star was shining brightest.
The first of these, on DISC ONE of this set, is the early show played at the
Spectrum in Montreal, Canada, on August 17th 1984, a few months following the
release of his
second album, Couldnt Stand The Weather, and thus featuring a number of cuts
from that record, but mixing it up too with earlier songs and covers. It should
be noted this
is a completely different show to that now featured on the Deluxe Edition of
Couldnt Stand the Weather, which is the late set, albeit performed on the
same day.
The second show, on DISC TWO, is Stevies complete set played at the Chicago
Blues Festival on June 7th 1985, when Soul To Soul was all but in the can
awaiting release
in September of that year. The set list this time however only features a couple
of tracks from this forthcoming album, and the selection played is more varied,
not unusual
when performing in front of a festival crowd.
On DISC THREE, perhaps the most interesting of all, features Stevies complete
New Years Eve show 1986, performed at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia,
shortly after
hed completed rehab and was back in defiant mood and making the party go with a
swing. Joined for a couple of cuts by fellow guitar legend, Lonnie Mack, this
gig is often
acclaimed as one of Vaughans best ever.
