The immensely talented friends of the late blues guitar legend (who was tragically killed in a plane crash) give a rousing tribute concert to Stevie Ray Vaughan as each one climbs the stage and adds his power chords to the group. From earthy country-rock musician Bonnie Raitt to equally great blues master B.B. King to "Slowhand" himself, Eric Clapton, this all-star cast is a testament to the influence that Vaughan had during his short but brilliant life. A magic night (May 11, 1995) on PBS's Austin City Limits translates superbly to disc for this heartfelt and soulful salute from a Hall of Fame crew led by B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, and Dr. John. Brother Jimmy's elegant "Texas Flood," Raitt's kick-ass "Pride And Joy," and the amiable collective jams on "Six Strings Down" and "SRV Shuffle" are all highlights. "Stevie spoke through his guitar. It was his voice and much more. It was his instrument of liberation, his magic sword. The music meant everything to him, so there was only one way of paying tribute - by making the music pure and natural." - Jimmie Vaughan. Unlike most tribute albums from the '90s, A TRIBUTE TO STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN isn't a lifeless collection of piecemeal studio performances - it's a fiery, living tribute, which is only fitting for a guitarist who shone intensely and brightly during his brief life. Recorded live in Stevie Ray's hometown of Austin, TX, the album features many of Vaughan's idols, friends, and admirers ripping through his most famous numbers. Many of these musicians (including his brother Jimmie, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, and Buddy Guy) played with Stevie the night he died, which makes the record all the more poignant; also on hand are superstars like B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, Dr. John, and Art Neville. Although the memory and occasion remain bittersweet, the music on the album is simply teeming with life) everybody plays their heart out. Best of all are the collective jams at the end and the two new songs, "Six Strings Down" and "SRV Blues," which were written in Vaughan's memory. In short, it's what a tribute should be – a celebration of life, not death.
Recorded Live On 11th May 1995 In Austin, Texas.
