Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble – Texas Flood (2-CD)
Product Details
Recorded at Dallas Sound Lab in just three days with virtually no overdubs, Texas Flood captured a live ferocity that studio polish would have buried. Vaughan had been tearing up Austin's Sixth Street for years before this record existed, and that road-hardened intensity, the chemistry between him, bassist Tommy Shannon, and drummer Chris Layton, is exactly what made casual listeners into lifelong converts.
Texas Flood was the thunderclap from a clear blue sky. The album appeared in midsummer 1983, when most saw blues-rock as a quaint remnant of rock's past, introducing the power trio Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble to an unexpecting world. The original ten tracks of Texas Flood plus a never released concert performance by Stevie Ray and Double Trouble from Philadelphia that same summer comprise this special 2-CD, 30th anniversary collection.
