A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan [Live]

Amazon.com
A magic night (May 11, 1995) on PBS's Austin City Limits translates superbly to disc for this heartfelt and soulful salute from a Hall of Fame crew led by B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, and Dr. John. Brother Jimmy's elegant "Texas Flood," Raitt's kick-ass "Pride and Joy," and the amiable collective jams on "Six Strings Down" and "SRV Shuffle" are all highlights. --Jeff Bateman

Austin City Limits Tribute recorded.......2007-07-05

This is one of the best of ACL and that's saying a whole lot. This 1995 tribute to Austin-based Stevie Ray Vaughn featured an all-star cast, including Stevie's brother, Jimmy, Eric Clapton, BB King, Bonnie Raitt, and more.

"Pride and Joy" by Bonnie Raitt is probably my favorite of the bunch, but there's not a bad song in the collection.

For such a short life, Stevie Ray Vaughn made an outstanding contribution to blues and guitar and he will be sorely missed. In my opinion, this is one of the best tributes I have ever seen or heard.

RICK SHAQ GOLDSTEIN SAYS: "A TRIBUTE AN SRV LOVER LIKE SHAQ, SAYS THANK YOU FOR!".......2007-01-28

Stevie Ray Vaughn and Albert King are my two favorite electric blue guitarists. I've had this CD for 10 years and it's just as great every time I play it. Until the last month (December 2006) I didn't know about amazon.com's venue for reviews, so Shaq is making up for lost time. This is without a doubt a 5 star classic! With stars paying tribute to Stevie, such as Bonnie Raitt, BB, Buddy Guy, Clapton, Doctor John, Robert Cray, brother Jimmie, and others. Buddy Guy performs a "haunting" version of "Long Way From Home". The lyrics for "Six Strings Down", which basically, welcomes Stevie to blues heaven, where he joins with the likes of Albert King, Freddie King, Albert Collins, T-bone and others, is intelligent, touching, and oh yea! Has a good beat! SHAQ BLUES HISTORICAL TRIVIA NOTE FOR MY LOYAL BLUES FANS: "The night Stevie died, at the end of the concert in Wisconsin, Eric Clapton, told Stevie, with witnesses, "You're the best blues guitarist I ever heard!" By the way, read all of Shaq's blues reviews for all kinds of nuggets like these. P.S. Stevie's last recorded CD is "Family Style". I'll rate it a 5 here because I can't find it on amazon. It's a 4 musically, but the fact that it was the last CD he recorded, in addition to being the reuniting of brothers Stevie and Jimmie, and the hatchet between the brothers was buried.

An exception to the rule.......2006-07-03

Tribute albums aoften strike me as a collection of poor imitations of the original- but this is different. First and foremost, everyone on it was close to SRV, from his brother on down. They knew him, they played with him, and they understood his style. Second, and perhaps even more importantly, this was a live concert. Instead of a bunch of gunslingers trying to out-SRV each other in a studio, you have a group of great musicians, each a great stylist in their own right, and none of whom has to prove anything to anyone. The result is magical music that serves as a true tribute to that great Texas guitar player, Stevie Ray Vaughn.

A fitting tribute.......2005-11-30

This CD has the best blues musicians in the world paying tribute to SRV.
Bonnie Raitt opens with a killer slide version of Pride and Joy,
Jimmy Vaughn does a great version of Texas Flood second only to the version by Stevie.
BB King does Telephone Song. Buddy Guy almost steals the show with Long Way From Home.
Eric Clapton does a solid version on Aint Gonna Give Up On Love.
Robert Cray does a strong version of Love Struck Baby
This is a fitting tribute of musicians who are honoring SRV along with SRV's former band members.
This is a must for any SRV fan, or any blues fan............

What A Tribute To The King Of Blues!.......2004-09-14

I loved the tribute to stevie ray vaughan I mean who would'nt! Their are so many influential blues guitarist on this album including Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, BB.King, Robert Cray, Jimmie Vaughan, Bonnie Raitt, and more....Their are also many special guests including Dr. John, and Art Neville. As well as the great guitarist, and special guests their is also the orginal member's of Stevie Ray Vaughan and double trouble including Chris Layton, and Tommy Shannon. This live show was done in the Austin City Limits show. I think everybody does great rendition's of Stevie Ray Vaughan's songs including Jimmie Vaughan's: Texas Flood, B.B.King's: Telephone Song, and the powerful rendition of Eric Clapton's: Ain't Gone'N Give Up On Your Love. A really good trio with everybody is Tick Tock, and the Srv Shuffle very cool. This is truely a must have for any guitarist this one is truely" for you!!!!Highly Recomened!

Customer Reviews:

Really Good, but Ain't Great.......2001-08-02

A good tribute to SRV by many of his peers, but with a few embarrassing moments. His brother Jimmy sounds horrible. Sounds like he has tin strings on his guitar with equally bad vocals. I am also totally disgusted with the SRV jam at the end. It is so repetitious and boring that SRV would be ashamed to have his name attached to it. It lacks any of the creativity and fluidity that were his hallmark.

Blues greats pay tribute to SRV.......2001-07-31

As one of the all-time great lineups of blues artists hits the stage, Stevie Ray Vaughn is remembered the way he would have wanted it; as a musician. The CD contains outrageous solo performances by these artists, but the jams at the end make this a needed addition to any blues collection. As the greatest players in the world swap leads, you really feel the joy in the performances as if Stevie's memory was bringing out the best in all of them.

This album shows how good SRV was.......2001-03-07

The good thing about this album is it show how good SRV was. Unfortunately that is so because it is painful to listen to other artists playing his songs. The only artists to come out of this presentation with any credit are Dr. John for his 'Cold Shot', Bonnie Raitt for her slide work and Eric Clapton for 'Ain't gone'n give up on love'. The message of the album was 'we miss you stevie' which I can only echo after buying this album.

Heartfelt Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan.......2000-02-11

If your looking for a polished studio album featuring any of these performers then go elsewhere. But if you are looking for a heartfelt tribute to SRV from each performer then this is for you. This tribute features performances from everyone that was with Stevie on his faithful night. Each performer gives his/her take on their favorite SRV classics. You can tell that emotion is pouring through every song.

If this is ANYTHING like the special..........1999-06-13

If this is ANYTHING like what was played on the PBS special, I AM ALL OVER THIS.
