Free Music Notes for Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble: Greatest Hits
Free Music Review: Most of the Hits
Hit: 4 Stars
As a Stevie Ray freak, I'd recommend this CD to anyone as a starting point to getting to know this incredible musician. In the blues realm, Clapton's chops may be a bit clearer, and Van Halen may be faster but nobody has played with so much FEEL on electric guitar--not even BB King. The most curious thing about the Greatest Hits is that it starts with "Taxman." It never got much acclaim. The Beatles version is much better, and McCartney's scorching solo is much better, too. Other than that, it's a great CD from a musician's standpoint, but the songs are also fun and catchy. "Love Struck" is about the only major song missing here, but it's contained on Vol. 2. This is pretty much can't miss--Stevie's one of the All-Time greats. Free Music Review: The Great Stevie Ray Vaughan

When I first learned that Stevie Ray Vaughan had died in a helicopter crash, back in 1990, I really did not who he was. Since then, I have found out who he was and what a hole that he left in the world of rock and roll and the blues.
I first got aquainted with the talent of this man, when he appeared on Austin City Limits. I was struck by the way he handled the guitar. His talents were really showcased on both of the appearancs. I have since tried to buy everything that he has released.
As for this compilation, I am sure that there are going to better ones that wil be released over the next few years with more unreleased stuff. This is a fine start, but as a previous reviewer stated, this is just a tad short. Needs to be remastered with more songs on it.
It is an essential in an avid blues and rock and roll listeners' library, as a must have.
Free Music Review: Awesome!

This is a great intro to Stevie Ray, but it is far from complete. Greatest Hits 2 will help you move in the right direction, but you will still need to seek out more gems. A great collection. Must have for any blues and rock fan. You like Jimi? Check out Stevie Ray. Free Music Review: Excellent Bluesman

Stevie is what made me want to sing and play the blues. His Texas drawl and flavor lend his playing an extra bit of lonesomeness that make him a true blues man. This collection showcases some of Stevie's best album tracks, but if you really want to hear the blues then try some of his live stuff.
