Post Description

This latest offering is very satisfying. Yes, it was out many years ago on VHS, but this has been embellished. You get the standard videos that were on the VHS version, plus... 

Three songs from Stevie's "Unplugged" sessions. Previous to this, I was only able to find "Pride and joy" on an MTV compilation CD from "Unplugged". That song is here in both sight and sound, but the two instrumentals, "Rude mood" and "Testify" are on another level. Clapton was said to have made the "unplugged" series take off, but his set had no equal to what SRV does here. No backing band, no rhythm section, no electronic cheating, just a guy on a chair with an acoustic guitar, almost in a trance with a left hand that flies with precision and speed that almost made me want to smash my own guitar for my lack of skills. The price of this DVD would be worth it for just these three songs if you are a fan of the guitar. 

Additionally, there are a couple of songs from the Vaughan Brothers CD, as well as a mini (very mini) documentary of the making of the album which has some nice candid scenes of the two Vaughans joking, playing and reminiscing. 

And there is a video for "Little Wing", which could be seen (sort of) on SRV's "Live from Austin, Texas" DVD. This version has some vocal overdubbing from some old blues players talking about the guitar. I use to see this version on a video jukebox back in the day, but have never seen it offered to the public until now. 

If you like Stevie Ray Vaughan, this is a no brainer.
