Combined to form the most popular program in the show's distinguished history, the concerts were taped in 1983 and 1989; both provide a valuable portrait of Vaughan's astounding artistic development. The performances serve as bookends to Vaughan's brilliant career with Double Trouble, showing (in the words of producer Terry Lickona) a striking contrast between "zero self-confidence" and "pure magic," but in both cases you can see a master at work. Songs include "Pride and Joy," "Texas Flood," "Voodoo Chile," "Cold Shot," and "Riviera Paradise." This great-sounding DVD also includes the posthumous music video "Little Wing," featuring clips of Double Trouble and archival footage of blues greats from the 1920s to the mid-1990s. If you're even a part-time blues fan, Stevie Ray Vaughan: Live from Austin, Texas is a must-have disc. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - greatAwesome DVD, great quality and a live up close setting. If you enjoy this music, get this DVD Rating: - ExcellentNice quality production, lots of music, satisfies the craving for listening to Stevie's music and seeing him perform. Rating: - AWESOME, BUT WHERE IS THE REST?I have owned the VHS version and played it till it just won't play. I'm not the only one, I'm sure. Like most, I bought the DVD as soon as it was released and it has seen better days as well. I won't bore you with what you already know. I want to know why the powers that be have yet to release the first show from start to finish, regardless of what they may think of the quality of the performance? As we know, the remaining songs from the second show do appear on the dvd from the boxed set. Would ...

I think he takes "Vodoo Chile'" to a different level, and the entire DVD shows him doing what he does best, making realy good music! Rating: - Great Guitar Playing on a MUST HAVE DVD for Any Fans of SRV (yet incomplete shows)!STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN AND DOUBLE TROUBLE: LIVE FROM AUSTIN, TEXAS is a great DVD to have, despite the fact that these two concerts are not presented in their entirety. But this is still Stevie Ray Vaughan playing live for nearly an hour, so it deserves a 5 star rating, and hopefully they will someday soon release both the 1983 and 1989 concerts with ALL the songs included. This DVD is actually a DVD of an episode of the PBS live music show AUSTIN CITY LIMITS, which itself was a compilation of ... Read More |
