Free Music Review: Becoming one of my Favorite SRV Albums
Hit: 5 Stars
This album has really grown on me with repeated listenings. One of the reasons why I have come to appreciate this album so much is that it really catches the band at their peak. The album is broken up into two format: the first half finds just the core three piece band, the second half includes an extended band with firends and Room Full of Blues horn section. For me, SRV didn't get any better then the original tight trio They are still the tight trio that put out 'Texas Flood' and it's the only place in the catalog to find SRV in this format and man is it gooood. The second half is a great addition for any SRV fan and this half has really grown on me. The horns and guest stars (including his brother)has a really different sound\groove then any other SRV album. Dirty Pool is fanastic with the horns. My only wish is the both sides were longer. I
If you enjoy Stevie's early work you will enjoy this album. If you enjoy Stevie live, you will enjoy this album. If you have been a long time SRV fan and don't have this album in your collection you need to buy it now. This is a great and surprisely different album from the greatest guitarist to have ever lived.

Carnegie Hall!! Wow!!! Steve, you sure have come a long way. But, we all knew you would. Yes, that's right, all of your Oak Cliff buddies and Kimball High School friends...Yes, we knew you were headed for greatness way back there in the late 60's and early 70's. But, you were with us in first period Gym class playing flag football on those cold mornings. And we came by to pick you up to go to school and you would come dragging out of the house with a toothbrush in your mouth and your shoes and socks in you hands. You were up 'til 3am playing music around Dallas nightclubs. going to school was tough. But you were with us and we will always remember and love you for it..

Free Music Review: Good CD With Original Material
Hit: 5 Stars
Everyone knows SRV was great so of course this CD will be excellent, but it's not the same old SRV. It shows SRV in a setting that is not captured in any other SRV recordings.
The first half of the set is Stevie and Double Trouble playing the regular song set that they played at the time: Scuttlebuttin', Love Struck, etc... It's excellent of course but nothing you haven't already heard before on other SRV CDs.
The second half they are joined by a complete horn section, keyboardist, second drummer, and a female singer Angela Strehli sits in for one song. Here they play tributes to other blues artists like Guitar Slim, Albert King and Albert Collins, songs that are not found on other SRV CDs.
The sound is also unique to SRV. He's not using his usual chocolate brown aged Stratocaster but a newer model with a distinctive sound.
This is NOT an old tape that Jimmie found laying around and released to put some coin in his pocket. This is excellent stuff that any true SRV fan must have in his collection.
