Summary: stevie ray
Review: stevie is the greatest guitar player of all time and this dvd shows off some off his talents

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Amazing..
Review: I showed this video to my father-in-law who is neither a blues nor rock fan and even he was impressed. If you are a Stevie fan and haven't seen him perform you really should get this video. I don't know how you could truly appreciate how good he is without seeing the close-ups. He is lightning fast but speed is only a small part of his talent. Everything fits and his runs aren't just ornamentation. The pictures are good, not great. Seems too dark, especially the early scenes. His last performace is significantly better than the first. He looks more relaxed and seems to be enjoying himself and his music more. His eyes are open more and the sound is more soulful. There is a bonus cut at the end which is the remake of Hendrix's "Little Wing". It stayed with me for days. I can only guess that God wanted a private performance.

Summary: Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble: Live From Austin, Texas
Review: Played this through Technics AC500-D DTS/Dolby digital processor and Onkyo 919 receiver. Had to immediately turn off Velodyne sub because of very excessive low end (could hear almost nothing else). Never had trouble with any media (DVD, Laserdisc, CD, VHS, etc) before. Listened to 2 songs...turned it off and called Sony (number on back of DVD) to ask if defective copy or just bad mix. Awaiting answer from Sony.

Summary: wowwww! awsome!
Review: this video shows how much SRV had progressed in those past two years (after his drug addiction problems) and how far his guitar playing could have gone.A lesson of feeling...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Essential SRV
Review: This DVD is a must have for any fan of SRV. As the liner notes say, the juxtaposition of the younger and older Stevie Ray is fascinating. The 3 songs from the earlier broadcast show Stevie wringing the neck of his guitar, putting every once of effort into the show. The older, more relaxed SRV just lets music flow - its magic. These later songs are among the best live guitar work I have ever seen.

The audio problems some people have mentioned I do not have. I have listened in Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround, as well as straight stereo. I would give the audio quality 4 stars.

Review: awesome! awesome! awesome! awesome! it's very worth buying. oh did i say that it's awesome! thank you. stevie ray!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's Really Good
Review: As an aspiring blues guitarist, there's nothing more depressing and disheartening than to watch SRV do his stuff.

He is really good...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stevie rocks
Review: Stevie Ray Vaughan is one of the best blues players in the history of time. This video presents Stevie at his best. The first three songs, pulled from early in his career shine the best and are classic stevie. Most of this compilation is from Stevie's last perfomance at Austin City limits, and the material is just as good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An absolute must have for lovers of blues and rock guitar.
Review: The two concerts show the growth of a true guitar legend. The DVD will become a classic. Stevie Ray Vaughan is right up there with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, etc. The DVD just blew me away. I would recommend it to all lovers of the guitar. The sound quality may not be technically perfect, as some say, but I didn't notice it at all. Stevie Ray's playing overcame all of that. If you can get your hands on a copy buy it and enjoy the late great master Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Great performance. Poor audio quality!
Review: I enjoy the music of Stevie Ray Vaughn but this DVD was a big disappointment. The preformance was very good but the audio quality was Very Poor!!

In 2 previous reviews, one agreed with me about the poor audio quality and the next that said how good this sounds, particularly on his 5.1 dolby digital player. I wish I would have understood the tech notes. This is not recorded in dolby digital 5.1. It is recorded in dolby 2.0. There is a Big difference! We tried listening to it as 5.1 dolby, Pro Logic, and straight stereo. None sounded good.

If a superior recording engineer can bring this baby back to life, I would absolutely want to own it. But until that time, it remains on the shelf gathering dust.
