Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble – Live at Montreux 1982 & 1985 CD

Description

“Live at Montreux 1982 & 1985” is a live album by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble, released in 2001. It features two full sets from the Montreux Jazz Festival, recorded in 1982 and 1985. Stevie Ray Vaughan’s 1982 performance at Montreux was one of the most pivotal moments in his career. At that time, he was an unknown Texas blues guitarist trying to make a name for himself. However, the audience, which was expecting a more traditional jazz or fusion act, was not very receptive-many actually booed the band during the set. Despite this, David Bowie and Jackson Browne were in the audience and were impressed by Vaughan’s playing. This led to Vaughan playing guitar on Bowie’s “Let’s Dance” album and a recording opportunity with Browne, which helped launch his career. By 1985, Stevie Ray Vaughan was a blues-rock superstar, and his return to Montreux was met with a completely different reaction-this time, he was celebrated and received with standing ovations.
