About this title

From Amazon.co.uk

Few guitarists ever mastered the Fender Stratocaster like the late, great Texas bluesman Stevie Ray Vaughan, and this video collects both of the sizzling appearances th at Vaughan and his solid band, Double Trouble, made on the American PBS concert series A ustin City Limits. Combined to form the most popular programme in the show's distinguish ed history, the concerts were taped in 1983 and 1989; both provide a valuable portrait o f Vaughan's astounding artistic development. The performances serve as bookends to Vaugh an's brilliant career with Double Trouble, showing (in the words of producer Terry Licko na) a striking contrast between "zero self-confidence" and "pure magic", but in both cas es you can see a master at work. Songs include "Pride and Joy", "Texas Flood", "Voodoo C hile", "Cold Shot" and "Riviera Paradise". --Jeff Shannon
