Thanks. This is the perfect companion to the Vol.1 Cd, so with this one, you get the entire "Real-Deal". This is an excellent continuation of the volume 1 cd. You get 16 great songs,and more hits, including: "Love Struck Baby", "Ain't Gonna Give Up on Love", "Scuttle Buttin", "Lenny" (the name of his wife), "Superstition" (This is an outstanding SRV version of the Stevie Wonder Song and this one is performed live),"Rivera Paradise", "Look at Little Sister", and "Voodoo Chile" (Slight Return), and others.
If you really love Stevie's music, it just talks to you like an old friend. I have to say thought that his best album for me has to be "The Sky is Crying". Now you have to really love the rest of the band to really HEAR the music speak to you. Enjoy. Then there is also Chris Layton on Drums, and Tommy Shannon on Bass Guitar, The Double Trouble Band. I just bought this CD and I already own about 12 or more CD's by Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble.
I really got into him shortly before he died, such a beautiful musician, he is surely missed. That song and his music has gotten me through many many of really tough nights. I bought this one because I used to sing his song "Leave My Little Girl Alone" to my daughter when she was 5. Fantastic. He is truely my favorite. She's now 20 and just this song alone and being recorded live is worth buying another Stevie Ray Vaughn's masterpieces.
Reese Wynaans on his keyboard alone is smoking, boy that guy can play.
This isn't necessarily his best, but there are some real tasty ones on this album. Double Trouble is an outstanding collection of Stevie Ray's songs. I am a relative newcomer (5 years) to his music and I love it more and more with time.
My favorite is Scuttle Buttin'.really shows Stevie's talent on the guitar. typical great guitar playing, Double Trouble is fantastic. Would reccommend this CD to anyone who loves the Blues. What can I say. It's Stevie Ray.
His style of guitar will be missed. There are some great songs on this album, it's a shame he died too young.
