1	Texas Flood (1983) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist It's hard to overestimate the impact Stevie Ray Vaughan's debut, Texas Flood, had upon its release in 1983. At that point, blues was no longer hip, the way it was in the '60s. Texas Flood changed all that, climbing into the Top 40 and spending over half a year on the charts, which was practically unheard of for a blues recording. Vaughan became a ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.22!
2	The Real Deal: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble add to wishlist Stevie Ray Vaughan was one of a kind. Even his peers knew so. So many times, people like Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy have spoken publicly about Stevie Ray's gift, and it was a gift. His guitar leads would jet off into the stratosphere, return, reload, and blast off again, time after time. The Real Deal is exactly what it says it is. This is a 16 ... see all copies from $3.20! new only from $3.56!
3	Greatest Hits (1995) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist Stevie Ray Vaughan was a great guitarist, but he had trouble making consistent albums. Greatest Hits rectifies that problem by collecting all of his best-known tracks, from "Pride and Joy" to "Crossfire." Not only is it a terrific introduction, it's his most consistent album, demonstrating exactly why he was one of the most important guitarists of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.81!
4	Soul to Soul (1985) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist By adding two members to Double Trouble -- keyboardist Reese Wynans and saxophonist Joe Sublett -- Stevie Ray Vaughan indicated he wanted to add soul and R&B inflections to his basic blues sound, and Soul to Soul does exactly that. It's still a modern blues album, yet it has a wider sonic palette, finding Vaughan fusing a variety of blues, rock, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
5	In Step (1989) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist Stevie Ray Vaughan had always been a phenomenal guitarist, but prior to In Step, his songwriting was hit or miss. Even when he wrote a classic modern blues song, it was firmly within the genre's conventions; only on Soul to Soul's exquisite soul-blues "Life Without You" did he attempt to stretch the boundaries of the form. As it turns out, that ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.19!
6	Live at Carnegie Hall (1997) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist Live at Carnegie Hall captures Stevie Ray Vaughan on the supporting tour for his second album, 1984's Couldn't Stand the Weather. The Carnegie Hall concert was a special show, since it was the only time Vaughan and Double Trouble added the brass section from Roomful of Blues to augment their sound; in addition, the concert featured guest ... see all copies from $2.84! new only from $6.83!
7	The Complete Aladdin Recordings (1991) more music like this by Lightnin' Hopkins add to wishlist This is where it all began for the Houston troubadour: 43 solo sides, as evocative and stark as any he ever did, from 1946-1948. The first 13 sides find the guitarist in tandem with pianist Wilson "Thunder" Smith (who handles the vocals on a few tracks), but after that, old Lightnin' Hopkins went the solo route. "Katie May," "Short Haired Woman," ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $9.77!
8	Is It News (2007) more music like this by Doyle Bramhall add to wishlist Considering that it took Texas drummer and singer/songwriter Doyle Bramhall's 12 years to issue his debut album, 1994's Bird Nest on the Ground and that nine years passed before his sophomore effort, Fitchburg Street, dropped, his third set, arriving only four years after its predecessor, is quick work. Bramhall is a bit of a living legend in ... see all copies from $10.50! new only from $10.50!
9	The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble (2002) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist Epic's The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble gathers two discs' worth of the late blues guitarist's work, including many live performances and a few tracks with the Vaughan Brothers. The collection presents Vaughan's material in roughly chronological order, from the 1980 live recording "Shake for Me" to 1989's "Life by the Drop." It ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $13.99!
10	Ultimate Collection (2001) more music like this by Freddie King add to wishlist Hip-O's Ultimate Collection is one of the first truly comprehensive overviews of Freddie King's career, starting with his seminal recordings for Federal and running all the way to his final recordings for RSO in the mid-'70s. This is a mixed blessing. On one hand, it's nice to have a disc that tells the whole story, but the shifting production ... see all copies from $13.28! new only from $13.28!
11	Pure Blues (2001) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The "pure" in the Pure series initially suggested the unadulterated, soothing dulcet tones of new age in the Pure Moods discs, but as the series took off, Universal Music realized they had a real marketable brand name here, so they decided to use it for different genres. The one thing that all the collections shared was that they were exceptional ... see all copies from $11.08! new only from $11.08!
12	The Real Deal: Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (2006) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble add to wishlist This is a fine 16-track introduction to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Here are the early rollicking blues hits like "Texas Flood," "Couldn't Stand the Weather," and "Cold Shot," to the middle period Hendrix-drenched "Say What?" "Come On, Pt. 3," and the late R&B-drenched tunes such as "Crossfire," "Tightrope," and "The House Is Rockin'." There is also a ... see all copies from $7.69! new only from $7.69!
13	Johnny Winter [Expanded] (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter add to wishlist Sony Legacy's remastered and expanded reissue of Johnny Winter's self-produced debut album for Columbia Records -- recorded in 1969 -- is nothing short of a revelation. Unlike most of his peers, who purposefully wed blues to rock and made it palatable to pop audiences, Winter's approach to the blues was pure and savage. He approached rock & roll ... see all copies from $4.96! new only from $6.83!
14	Greatest Hits, Vol. 2: The ABC-Dunhill/MCA Recordings (1998) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland add to wishlist Subtitled The ABC-Dunhill/MCA Recordings, this picks up the last tenure of Bobby "Blue" Bland working under the corporate MCA umbrella. With tunes aboard from various albums and singles, this 16-track collection covers the highlights from his 1970s period, with only 1982's "Recess in Heaven" falling outside the time frame. Bland was a much ... see all copies from $7.65! new only from $7.65!
15	People Take Warning! Murder Ballads & Disaster Songs 1913-1938 (2007) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist This three-disc, 70-track (30 of them new to the CD era) collection of murder ballads and disaster songs originally released on commercial 78s between 1913 and 1938 is, in spite of the archaic song structures and often crude sonic qualities on display, strangely contemporary in tone and feel, maybe because we've always been drawn to the scene of ... see all copies from $36.92! new only from $36.92!
16	Live Alive (1986) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist Live Alive is a magnificent double-length showcase for Stevie Ray Vaughan's guitar playing, featuring a number of extended jams on a selection of most of the best material from Vaughan's first three albums, plus covers of "Willie the Wimp," "I'm Leaving You (Commit a Crime)," and Stevie Wonder's "Superstition." The album may not be exceptionally ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.88!
17	The Progressive Blues Experiment (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter add to wishlist Although his early Columbia albums brought him worldwide stardom, it was this modest little album (first released on Imperial before the Columbia sides) that first brought Johnny Winter to the attention of guitarheads in America. It's also Winter at the beginning of a long career, playing the blues as if his life depends on it, without applying a ... see all copies from $5.28! new only from $7.96!
18	Hot Stuff: The Greatest Hits (1992) more music like this by The Fabulous Thunderbirds add to wishlist The best tracks from the Fabulous Thunderbirds' more rock-oriented years at CBS Associated Records are collected on this single-disc compilation. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $5.88!
19	Showdown! (1985) more music like this by Albert Collins/Robert Cray/Johnny Copeland add to wishlist Most of the original "blues summit" and blues "supergroup" type gatherings, which were done at Chess Records, were musically pointless affairs, mostly because the artists involved really didn't like the idea behind the albums being recorded or the company they were forced to keep during the recording process. What makes Showdown! work is that the ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $14.63!
20	In the Beginning (1992) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble add to wishlist This 1980 live broadcast from Austin, TX captures a young Stevie Vaughan (he had yet to become Stevie Ray) blasting the hometown crowd with a style that was already very well-formed. With Chris Layton on drums and bassist Jackie Newhouse (Tommy Shannon would join up a year later), his basic sound was already in place, albeit still in need of some ... see all copies from $4.29! new only from $6.06!
21	Still Alive and Well (1973) more music like this by Johnny Winter add to wishlist Still Alive and Well proved to the record buying public that Johnny Winter was both. This is a truly enjoyable album, chock full of great tunes played well. Johnny's version of the Rolling Stones' "Silver Train" shows us the potential this song has and what the Stones failed to capture. Everything here is good, so get it and dig in. ~ James ... see all copies from $3.74! new only from $6.26!
22	Read My Lips (1989) more music like this by Lou Ann Barton add to wishlist Lou Ann Barton didn't have the best of luck in her early career. Incongruously signed to a major label for 1982's Old Enough, she delivered a fine debut that was utterly out of step with the times. Shunted to a tiny indie in her adopted hometown of Austin, she recorded 1986's oddly poppy Forbidden Tones, an album of John Hiatt and Beatles covers ... see all copies from $4.39! new only from $9.62!
23	Swing Land (1999) more music like this by Omar & the Howlers add to wishlist One doesn't recall Omar & the Howlers as a straight-out jump blues combo, but it looks as if they're on the bandwagon with this CD. Omar Dykes has a squirrelly voice that falls between sandpaper gruff and churlish shouting, a cross twixt Dr. John and Howlin' Wolf. Help from the capable Howlers, big-time backup from saxophonists David "Fathead" ... see all copies from $2.24! new only from $2.24!
24	Do You Get the Blues? (2001) more music like this by Jimmie Vaughan add to wishlist If anyone deserves a crack at being "the next Stevie Ray Vaughan," it's his older brother Jimmie. Thankfully, he's not concerned with aping his sibling's gruff, guitar-heavy approach, as he's proved through his previous two solo albums. It's not that he doesn't have the chops to be an often spellbinding guitarist in his own right; his work with ... see all copies from $7.99! new only from $11.58!
25	Love Is Greater Than Me (2000) more music like this by Chris Duarte Group add to wishlist see all copies from $3.45! new only from $7.00!
