    That is because that is what it is.  A bunch of "older stuff" that his
    brother put together.
    
    K.C.

    For a real treat, check out the new El Mocambo video from 1983.  His
    version of Little Wing is one of the greatest statements ever made on 
    a Telecaster and the version of Texas Flood is red hot!!!

    This week's issue of the Phoenix has a nice review of the new SRV
    album. They compare it (favorably) to other posthomous albums from
    Hendrix, etc.
    
    The current Phoenix issue also has a "top-100 rock albums list" (some
    of which is good and some of which is way off-base - just like any such
    list), a Freddie Mercury obit, a review of the King Crimson boxed set
    and lots of other music stuff.
    
    I picked up the Phoenix while in Boston yesterday (I was trying to find
    out where chefs Julia Child, Jaques Pepin and Marie Esposito were holding
    their book signing and cullinary workshops - the answer was at 808 Comm
    Ave near BU). I was really psyched to see a Phoenix issue so jam-packed
    with music goodies too!

    RE: .2
    
    Is he playing a Tele in the concert ?  I never knew he ever touched
    one.  He's a die hard Strat man ...

    RE:  2
    
    Very good treat.  The El Mocambo video is a Christmas gift to me from
    Santa...I watched it, I heard it and I **LOVE** it.  I like
    all of Stevie Ray's music, but Texas Flood is my favorite...  8-)  8-)

    I know someone that's trying to find the SRV Video Concert titled
    Pride & Joy, has anyone seen this video in a store? Also they mentioned
    having this for sale at Camelot Video on TV but they don't mention
    where this place is located, anyone know? 
    
     This person has tried ordering it through a Video Store and grown
    tired of waiting for it to come in (a couple months).
    
    Thanks,

    Noteworthy CD catalog lists this video.  Their number should somewhere
    in this conference.

    Thanks Joe, I've seen a note on Noteworthy somewhere in here, I'll 
    check it out!

    They must have more than one 800 number cause I called 1-800-553-5370.
    They do carry the Video Pride & Joy but were out of stock. I got a 
    free castalog on the way though. ;^)

    Stevie Ray used to play Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado every summer
    (or darn near every summer), and I don't think I missed a concert.
    
    One of the best times I've ever had was the summer when Gregg Allmann 
    opened for him. Nothing like great tunes on a clear summer night 
    in the Rocky Mtns!  
    
    Here's to ya', Stevie.  Wish you could've stayed around a while
    longer... 

    
    
    does anyone know the exact date (month and year) of his death ?
    
    thanks a lot

    I believe it was August 27th, 1990.

I was at the concert at Alpine Valley, WI that night (Aug 26, 1990)...SRV,
Robert Cray and Clapton.  Excellent, excellent, excellent.  Cray and Clapton
weren't bad, either...

And then he had to go and meet up with a man-made ski slope.  What a waste.

	Favorite Tunes: SRV

		May I Have a Talk With you

    What a terrible loss.  Have you seen the "Live at the El Macombo"
    video?  It's awesome.  Stevie just starts out whaling and never
    lets up the whole show.... some really amazing stuff, including
    playing his guitar behind his back showing off etc...

    Has anyone heard the new live CD?  A friend panned it but then
    I heard a cut on the radio and thought it was pretty good.,
    I think it's some early recordings...

    	I've seen the video...Intense!  

	Can't be easy playing the guitar behind one's back.

	I haven't heard the new CD yet, but there are a few words about it in
the current Musician, which claims that it's an old recording from long before
he was known much outside Austin. This recording was made before he added the 
bass player who later played on the Double Trouble records (I forget his name).
Musician says that the disk contains some fine moments but also shows how far
Stevie would yet improve in becoming the giant he did.

/ml

    	The new Stevie Ray Vaughan disk "In The Beginning" is indeed a
    very early recording... Double Trouble had just trimmed down to a 
    3 piece, Tommy Shannon (from Johnny Winter's early band) was not yet 
    playing bass, and he was calling himself "Stevie Vaughan"-- hadn't 
    added the "Ray" yet.

    	It's a decent disk, but its worth is in its historical value more
    than anything else; it shows a really talented young guitarist just
    beginning to break out, both in his talent & success. 

    	I wouldn't recommend it to any novice SRV fans; they'd be better
    served by "Couldn't Stand The Weather" or "In Step". The previous
    posthumous release, "The Sky Is Crying", is a terrific disk for both
    the new Stevie Ray listener and the long-time fan looking for some
    further insight into Stevie Ray's playing.

What CD would have 'Stranded (In a Crossfire)' on it. I hear it alot on
one of the stations here in Colorado Springs & would like to play it in my
band.

							Jens

	Crossfire is on "In Step".

    How does one dance to "Standed?"
    
    Somehow, the image of high-schoolers slow/fast dancing to "Stairway to
    Heaven" won't leave my mind.
    
    Mark.

Do any of the Stevie Ray Vaughan fans out there have a recording of
his cover of "Superstition"?

I'd be interested to know what album.  And, possibly, to borrow it for
a day...

thanks,
andy

	SRV's cover of Superstition is on his live double album.  I *think*
the name of the record is Live Alive.  I had it on vinyl and maybe God knows
where my copy is but I don't.

/ml

    I think -.1 is correct. I'll try to remember to check when I get home.

    
    Its on Live Alive fer shere, doods.
    
    DAP

>    Its on Live Alive fer shere, doods.

    But there's a studio version too, isn't there?

    --Ron

	I know of no studio version of SRV doing Superstition and I have all
his releases (gosh I hope I'm right!).  There's a pretty raunchy studio version
of Superstition by Jeff Beck on Beck Bogert & Appice, if I remember right.  I
don't remember of Jeff put out a live version of it.

/ml

thanks.  I found a copy of the live album.

I remember a video for the song and the music did not sound live...  anyway.

I think there's a live album released only in Japan that has this cut 
on it, but I'd have to check to be positive.

    
    
    
    "Superstition" is on the Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble VHS
    Cassette titled "Pride and Joy", available from CBS Music Video
    Enterprises, CBS Records Inc., P.O. Box 4450, NY NY 10101.
    
    Also on the tape: "Love Struck Baby", "Cold Shot", "Couldn't Stand The
    Weather", "Change It", "I'm Leaving You (Commit A Crime)", "The House
    Is Rockin'", and "Crossfire".
    
    I was surprised to note that "Superstition" doesn't appear on any of
    the 5 SRV CDs in my collection.  So, which disk is it on?
    

    i have the beck, bogus, and applesauce ;-) album that has
    'superstition' on it.  i enjoyed the album, but i was
    a vanilla fudge fan, so what do i know.
    
    i think i'll put on the old, scratched vanilla fudge album
    tonight and follow with beck, bogus, and applesauce.
    
    i love it when this notes file reminds me of music i forgot
    i had.

Is the B,B & A song Superstition or Superstitious?  I remember a song with Rod
on vocals singing "I ain't superstitious", which is not the same song (Stevie
Wonder) that SRV does.

>Is the B,B & A song Superstition or Superstitious?  I remember a song with Rod

It was the Stevie Wonder song.  I remember reading an interview with Beck
years ago where he claimed that Stevie Wonder had given him the song, but
later decided to record it himself.  Beck seemed somewhat miffed about it.

-Hal

    the b,b, and a song is stevie wonder's superstitious.
    'ain't superstitious' is a, i think, a blues standard
    type song.  i think that was when rod and jeff were
    in the yardbirds ( or was it the faces) (or was that
    jimmy page).  
    
    now i'm all confused, but i know b,b, and a is the stevie
    wonder song and rod stewarts is a different song.

  In related news...  One version of Superstition Stevie Wonder did for the
  "Talking Book" sessions had Beck on guitar.  I don't think that version
  has ever been released though (?).   - Jay

    as i recall, jeff beck's name is listed on the credits for
    'talking book'.  will check the vinyl when i get home
    (if i can remember) to see which song(s), if any.
    
    willie
    

>                          -< i think it was released >-

  I think what was released was Beck's work on "Looking For Another Pure
  Love" or a tune like that.  But, check it out...  - Jay

    
    Ain't Superstitious was released on the Jeff Beck Truth album,
    post Yardbirds.  Rod Stewart was the vocalist.  Great album !
    
    The B,B,& A version of Superstition is pretty cool as well imo.
    Beck makes the tune happen.
    
    Lv

This is most confusing!

   RE: .42      
     I agree!
    
    The bottom line is that the only known cut in print (by SRV) is on 
    the "LIVE" album/tape/CD. I agree that the "video" sounded like a 
    studio version, but I also have never found it except on the LIVE album. 
    
    I'd LOVE to cover that tune in the band that I'm in....
    
    Rock on,
    	    Fred

    Another rare SRV cut is called "Pipeline" (I think) from some movie.
    Anybody remember that?

    no. 40 was partly right.
    beck does not play on the talking book version of 'superstition'
    but he does play on 'i believe when i fall in love with you it
    will be forever'.
    he is on various other stevie wonder songs sprinkled throughout
    stevie's career.

	Just to beat this absolutely to death, Wonder appologized to Beck 
about recording 'Superstition' even though he said he wouldn't.  With that
he gave Beck "Cause We've Ended As Lovers" which Beck recorded as an 
instrumental on "Blow By Blow".  Stevie has never recorded it to my knowledge,
though his ex-wife Serita Wright (sp?) has.

WBCN featured SRV on its "Sunday Morning Blues" program ... one of the songs
they played was "Pipeline."

- DC

>So with the song name coupled w/ the movie name can I assume this is a cover
>tune of the old ?Safari's? tune?  

    Yeah, I think so.  

    I saw a video of this on TV, but it is not on the video 
    compilation mentioned earlier in this string.

    Is there a soundtrack release to this movie?  That at least
    might provide one the audio.  Where one can get the video,
    I don't know (but would like to).

    "Pipeline" - The Ventures.
    
    I am looking for a soundtrack to "Back to the Beach", so
    far with no luck.

    Just fyi, Dick Dale is scheduled to appear at Johnny D's in Somerville
    MA, early Oct I think.  Dick is the dude playing Pipeline with SRV in
    "Back To the Beach".  Surf's up!

    dick dale was also in most of those surfing movies.
    i think it was dick dale and the deltones.
    they played your basic ventures type tunes.

    RE: Pipeline
    
      The origional version was done by "The Chantays."
    
      Mike

    
    Has any one out there in SRV land seen or know if you can get hold of
    the SRV unplugged done for MTV. Apparently he broke a string but was
    still kicking.
