(Play It Like It Is). This matching folio showcases Satriani's
chilling guitar technique. Ten songs in all, including: Always With
Me, Always With You * Satch Boogie * and more.
A clean and sober Stevie Ray Vaughan seemed poised for a new,
limitless chapter of his life and career just a few years after his
severe addiction to cocaine and alcohol almost killed him. Years of
sibling rivalry with big brother Jimmie, his first and greatest
musical hero, were behind him, and their first collaborative album
was complete and on the verge of being released. His tumultuous
marriage was over and he was deeply in love with a supportive,
creative woman. His last album had been his most successful, both
critically and commercially. Instead, it all came screeching to a
sudden end, when Vaughan was killed in a helicopter crash on August
27, 1990, after that evening's dynamic performance with Eric
Clapton, leaving an endless stream of what-ifs. He was just 35
years old. In the ensuing 28 years, Vaughan's legend and acclaim
have only grown; he is an international musical icon. Despite the
cinematic scope of Vaughan's life and death, there has never been a
truly proper accounting of his story. Until now. Texas Flood
provides the unadulterated facts about Stevie Ray Vaughan from
those who were with him throughout every stage of his life and
career and who knew him best: his brother Jimmie, his Double
Trouble bandmates Tommy Shannon, Chris Layton and Reese Wynans, and
many other close friends, girlfriends, fellow musicians, crew
members and managers.
