Free Music Review: Mixed Bag
Hit: 3 Stars
I call this album a mixed bag because the first half is awesome and the second half is pretty bad. On the front side, Stevie's guitar is fantastic, his vocals excellent, and Double Trouble is tight. It is the kind of music that makes this listener want to get out of his seat and jump around. It's really that good.
Unfortunately, the back side is not nearly as good. Stevie is joined by a horn section, an organ, and a second guitar (played by his big brother, Jimmy). The horns and organ are really loud and even though Stevie can easily fill up much larger venues with his amazing axe, he manages to get drowned out by the other instruments. There are some good moments, as when Angela Strehli kicks in with some great vocals, but overall it fails to deliver. And the encore is a waste of time as Stevie seems to forget the way that his beautiful song, Lenny, goes and totally messes it up. The audience gets kind of impatient and rowdy and Stevie, as if not knowing what else to do, breaks into a sloppy version of Rude Mood before giving up. It is a truly weak ending to an album that starts very strong.
Also, folks should understand that this is Stevie the Blues Man and not expect much rock. No Voodoo Child, here.
Live at Carnegie Hall Poster
The series of Stevie Ray Vaughan concert albums that began with Live Alive (1986) and continued after the guitarist's 1990 death is far from the catalog-bloating cash-in you'd expect from the record company of a platinum seller cut down at a career peak. Instead, each disc gives a distinctly different view of the Texas blues-rocker's stage strengths. Where Live Alive captured Vaughan and his band Double Trouble in full arena roar and In the Beginning recorded a looser early club gig, Live at Carnegie Hall finds the outfit broadening its range with guest shots from Dr. John and the Roomful of Blues horn section. Rather than overpowering Vaughan's signature tautness, the bigger band makes for an entertaining switch--in effect allowing a fresh look at his R&B roots. --Rickey WrightBlues Music CDs
