The blues-rock guitar hero's studio vaults were nearly empty when he died in an August 27, 1990, helicopter crash. This set unearths a 1978 Austin session track of "You Can Have My Husband" with Vaughan as second fiddle to his then girlfriend, singer Lou Ann Barton, but it's undistinguished compared to the previously unreleased live performances that compose this disc's heart. Vaughan contributes teeth-baring pentatonic solos to Lonnie Mack's "Oreo Cookie Blues" at Atlanta's Fox Theatre in 1986 and brings his bullish tone to the late blues piano stomper Katie Webster's "On the Run" at the 1988 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. Bonnie Raitt's distinctively keening slide adds elegance to a "Texas Flood" from Bumbershoot 1985 in Seattle, and when Stevie's older sibling Jimmie Vaughan stops by Saturday Night Live to play rhythm on a 1985 "Change It," li'l bro' squeezes out screaming fireworks. But the best cut's a breathtaking '88 Jazz Fest slugfest with Texas Telecaster blaster Albert Collins that's jammed with howling, shaken notes and machine-gun riffing. Both are in top form. The rest is culled from Vaughan's guest appearances on others' releases or previous retrospectives and include matches with blues godfathers B.B. King and Albert King, as well as Johnny Copeland and A.C. Reed, Jeff Beck, Austin barrelhouser Marcia Ball, surf guitar king Dick Dale, and David Bowie, whose "Let's Dance" introduced Vaughan to the mainstream in 1983. --Ted Drozdowski

 Great Expectations ? August 11, 2008
Stranger (New Jersey USA)
I don't understand all the negative reviews. The album title and description say it all. The sound is good, the performances are good. Six of the songs are previously unreleased, half of the others I had never heard before. I compare this to the Duane Allman anthologies, you hear him as a backing musician on some tunes. Hearing Albert Collins and Bonnie Rait on songs with Stevie sure sounds good to me. Buy it and enjoy.
Oh No! Not the recording companies! August 10, 2008
KroolShooz
Oh My God! I just read the other reviews for this CD, and found out that the RECORDING COMPANIES ISSUED IT ONLY TO MAKE MONEY!!! Not the recording companies! I guess I better go buy a different CD. Wait...what if the recording companies are just making money off of that too??!! NOOOOO!
By the way, this CD kicks butt, if that actually counts for anything.
 Some of SRV's Best LIVE Solo Sweat August 6, 2008

For those who have panned this CD, I just have to quote the great Artie Shaw. --> "Go away!"
What a treat to hear the SRV's hot licks on the LIVE, "Albert's Shuffle" with Albert Collins.
"Goin' Down" with Jeff Beck. It's a challenge to tell who is who, but 'Becky' is playing his butt off, to stay up with the kid from Texas.
"Change It" is such an under rated jazzy, little rocker. Melodic vocal -Stevie just has such a soulful voice and on this live version which he sings perhaps better than the original studio track.
All the songs have something special. I would advise, to get away from the typical speakers, get some decent headphones and really listen to
what is going on...
Fantastic. A Solid Five Stars.
An excellent Live album that hasn't been fiddled with in post production.
Get those headphones and find a quiet corner to listen and enjoy.
 Entertaining if taken in context... July 18, 2008

When you buy this disc you have to understand what you're getting. This is a collection of odds & ends that Stevie collaborated on with other artists. Often times he is relegated to a supporting role. As such, you may not hear much from him except for the occasional solo or riff. This isn't a Stevie Ray Vaughan record, it's a "duets" record at best.
As a historical document, and to round out your SRV collection, it's O.K. If you are curious to see how Stevie's talents were integrated with other artists, this disc shows successful AND unsuccessful attempts to do this. Jimmie Vaughan's presence on "Change It" sounds superfluous. Bonnie Raitt's performance was completely out of sync on "Texas Flood". But Stevie's work on "Let's Dance" was great. His duet with Jeff Beck on "Goin' Down" was also great. "Pipeline" with Dick Dale is a real rocker. So this is a mixed bag.
Another interesting insight that can be gleened from listening to this disc is an understanding of who Stevie's friends, influences and idols really were. He loved the music of Lonnie Mack, Albert Collins, B.B. King, Johnny Copeland, etc. So I guess you could say that this disc can assist a fan in rounding out their collection and in gaining a more intimate knowledge of the artist. I would rank it as "moderately entertaining". It warrants a listen, but perhaps repeated listening is unnecessary.
SIDENOTE: I wouldn't get angry with the record company for putting this out because, frankly, there are a number of die-hard SRV fans that are interested in ALL facets of his career, even marginal efforts like this one. Clearly he was just having fun and not sweating too much over many of the performances. His death left a big void for a number of people, and folks are just trying to fill it however possible. Unfortunately, there just isn't much left to hear at this point because Stevie was taken from us in his prime.
