Albert King & Stevie Ray Vaughan - In Session (2-CD)
Product Details
By 1983, Albert King had already shaped the vocabulary of blues guitar for a generation, his stinging string bends and unconventional left-handed technique a direct line to virtually every player who came after him, Stevie Ray Vaughan included. Catching the two together in an informal television studio setting captures something a formal concert recording rarely does, the passing of tradition in real time, mentor and student trading licks on shared ground.
Released to celebrate Albert King’s Centennial, his 1999 live album In Session with Stevie Ray Vaughan is now available in its entirely for the first time on 3-LP, 2-CD and Digital. Recorded live for television at CHCH-TV studios in Ontario, Canada in 1983, this is the only known recording of Vaughan and King playing together. Also featured are Tony Llorens (piano/organ), Gus Thornton (bass), and Michael Llorens (drums). This deluxe edition has been newly mastered by Joe Tarantino.
