 Rating: - BRILLIANT!!This is a superb collection from the late Texas Genius. Buy this album if you like guitar brilliance, when you hear it you seriously wonder if there was anyone better. Rating: - The Greatest From The GreatestWhen you think of great guitarists, the names roll off of the tongue with ease...Hendrix, King, Clapton, Allman... But what about Stevie Ray Vaughan. Well, in my humble opinion, this man is possibly the greatest guitarist (behind Hendrix of course) that probably ever did. King is 'samey', Clapton is inconsistent, Allman was tragically cut short. Stevie was however versatile, technically unbelievable and judged by his peers as the greatest blues guitarist of all time. This album encompasses the greatest of the greatest. From the roots of Vaughan in Texas Flood and Pride and Joy to the sophisticated funk of Couldnt Stand The Weather. After the two discs, I doubt you'll regret ever buying it. I couldn't go to the gym ... Read More: Rating: - A piece of masteryI don;t really need to say very much about this except you would be fool not to buy it. SRV is a talent not be be missed. His guitar playing ability is second to very few, and he makes blues sound on a completely different level. you won't regret buying this. it has so many amazing songs on these 2 cd's, so is excellent value for money if i must say. buy this!!!! Rating: - Texas' Pride And JoyIf you've never heard SRV, you'll probably wonder what all the fuss is about, especially if you read guitar magazines (where his name crops up quite frequently). In a nutshell: he's the complete package. Tone, technique and a magnificent singing voice that wouldn't be out of place on a soul record. This recording offers a full spectrum of his rercorded work: the straight-ahead blues songs such as Pride And Joy (the intro still floors me every time), to the technique-laden stomps (Scuttle Buttin'), to the gentler, more melodic (Lenny). After this, you may well wonder if guitar music will ever seem the same again. The 2 CDs of this compilation are as good a place to start as any, offering a larger selection than ... Read More: Rating:  - Almost perfectYes, there are more Stevie Ray Vaughan compilations out there than original studio releases. And, with the exception of the excellent box set "SRV", this one is really the only one that is worth your while. "Greatest Hits" is too short and the track selection is less than ideal, and "Greatest Hits II" can't stand alone. This two-disc set, however imperfect, offers 33 of Vaughan's best studio and live recordings, and very few important tracks are missing. The must-have songs are here, of course: "Pride And Joy", "Texas Flood", "Cold Shot", "Look At Little Sister", the live "Willie The Wimp" etc. The slow blues "Dirty Pool" and "Ain't Gone 'n' Give Up On Love", and the delightful rocker "Lookin' Out The Window" are missing, ...
