Free Music Review: STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN CHANNELS GOD AND HENDRIX ON LIVE ALIVE !
Hit: 5 Stars
Live Alive (1986) was originally released as a two-record set of live performances from 1985-86. There's a lot of music here and it's all great, but get this especially for the back-to-back versions of Texas Flood and Voodoo Chile (Slight Return). In the 6:30 minutes of Texas Flood, I have no doubt that Stevie felt the presence of God. I do just listening to it! Jimi Hendrix is channeled in the unbelievable 9:37 minutes of Voodoo Chile (Slight Return). Just these two songs are worth the price of the CD, but there is plenty more to love here. Fourteen songs that average around 5:00 minutes apiece, including Pride And Joy, Cold Shot, Willie The Wimp, Look At Little Sister, Love Struck Baby, Superstition, and more. Some of this was recorded at the Montreaux Jazz Festival in 1985. They booed Stevie there in 1982, but you won't hear any of that this time around. Only wildly enthusiastic positive cheering. Is this essential Stevie Ray Vaughan material? Absolutely. If anything, just get this for Texas Flood and Voodoo Chile (Slight Return). Stevie Ray Vaughan has never sounded better than he does on those two. Just ask God and Jimi.
Live Alive Poster
Most live blues recordings have a feeling of intimacy, as if the concerts took place in some out-of-the-way venue for an audience who not only know all the lyrics, but know the performers personally as well. Live Alive, in contrast, feels like a large-scale rock concert, an epic production full of grand gestures. But really, nothing suited Stevie Ray Vaughan's style better; everything, from the overall sound to the solos, feels big. The roar of the audience, especially for favorites like "Pride and Joy," "Cold Shot," and "Texas Flood," is huge but distant, an arena sound. Overall, Live Alive leaves the impression of a series of stellar moments caught on tape, with an intensity rarely captured in the recording studio. --Genevieve WilliamsBlues Music CDs
