1	The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble (2002) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £6.92! new only from £12.17!
2	In Step (1989) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £2.78! new only from £7.62!
3	Greatest Hits (1995) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £4.03! new only from £6.54!
4	Live Alive (1986) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £3.45! new only from £9.09!
5	The Real Deal: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 (1999) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble 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 £6.40! new only from £6.40!
6	Couldn't Stand the Weather (1984) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble Stevie Ray Vaughan's second album, Couldn't Stand the Weather, pretty much did everything a second album should do: it confirmed that the acclaimed debut was no fluke, while matching, if not bettering, the sales of its predecessor, thereby cementing Vaughan's status as a giant of modern blues. So why does it feel like a letdown? Perhaps because it ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £4.73!
7	Texas Flood (1983) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £2.78! new only from £6.50!
8	The Sky Is Crying (1991) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble The posthumously assembled ten-track outtakes collection The Sky Is Crying actually proves to be one of Stevie Ray Vaughan's most consistent albums, rivaling In Step as the best outside of the Greatest Hits collection. These songs were recorded in sessions spanning from 1984's Couldn't Stand the Weather to 1989's In Step and were left off of the ... see all copies from £3.47! new only from £7.66!
9	In the Beginning (1992) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £4.18! new only from £4.18!
10	The Progressive Blues Experiment (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter 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 £8.90! new only from £8.90!
11 view cover	A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan (1996) more music like this by Various Artists Unlike most tribute albums from the '90s, A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan isn't a lifeless collection of piecemeal studio performances -- it's a fiery, living tribute, which is only fitting for a guitarist who shone intensely and brightly during his brief life. Recorded live in Stevie Ray's hometown of Austin, TX, the album features many of ... see all copies from £3.75! new only from £5.17!
12 view cover	Snake Farm (2006) more music like this by Ray Wylie Hubbard The third song on Ray Wylie Hubbard's 11th studio album, Snake Farm, is called "Heartaches and Grease," and that would have been a pretty good title for the record -- these 11 numbers are shot through with deep, growling guitars that sound like a hopped-up muscle car roaring past you late at night, reeking of Pennzoil and cheap thrills, while ... see all copies from £7.05! new only from £8.05!
13 view cover	The Real Deal: Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 (2006) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble 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 £6.11! new only from £6.11!
14 view cover	Genuine Houserockin' Christmas (2003) more music like this by Various Artists Genuine Houserockin' Christmas is a 16-track compilation of newly recorded holiday tunes sampling the roster of Alligator Records. These tunes capture several Chicago blues, modern soul, and zydeco artists including Koko Taylor, Lonnie Brooks, Lil' Ed & the Blues Imperials, Coco Montoya, C.J. Chenier & the Red Hot Louisiana Band, Saffire - The ... see all copies from £11.80! new only from £11.80!
15 view cover	Live Bootleg Series, Vol. 1 (2007) more music like this by Johnny Winter The most important thing to know about this Live Bootleg Series by Johnny Winter is that these are officially released tapes by him and he produced these recordings. These are not bootlegs in the sense of the word we have used it since the 1960s. That said, on this first volume, Winter goes back into his personal archive and pulls out various ... see all copies from £9.11! new only from £9.11!
16 view cover	SRV (2000) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble If you're gonna put out a box set that really offers something to the devoted fans of an artist -- who are, after all, probably bound to have much or all of the artist's other records already if they're interesting in buying a box set to begin with -- this four-CD package is the way to do it. It's not so much a best-of or career retrospective as a ... see all copies from £16.49! new only from £29.63!
17 view cover	Two Steps From the Blues [Bonus Tracks] (1961) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland Without a doubt, Two Steps From the Blues is the definitive Bobby "Blue" Bland album and one of the great records in electric blues and soul-blues. In fact, it's one of the key albums in modern blues, marking a turning point when juke joint blues were seamlessly blended with gospel and Southern soul, creating a distinctly Southern sound where all ... see all copies from £6.04! new only from £6.04!
18 view cover	20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Bobby "Blue" Bland (2000) more music like this by Bobby "Blue" Bland 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Bobby "Blue" Bland collects a dozen of his definitive performances, including "I Pity the Fool," "Stormy Monday Blues," and "Who Will the Next Fool Be?" Within a dozen songs, the collection spans Bland's most aching, plaintive moments, such as "I'm Too Far Gone (To Turn Around)," as ... see all copies from £6.16! new only from £6.16!
19 view cover	Soul to Soul (1985) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble 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 £2.78! new only from £7.04!
20 view cover	Martin Scorsese Presents the Blues: A Musical Journey (2003) more music like this by Original Soundtrack This five-disc, 116-track box set presents a sweeping history of the blues from its emergence in the early 1900s clear through to its various contemporary guises, and includes samples of country blues in all of its regional variations, as well as cuts from string bands, jug bands, jazz combos, gritty Chicago blues outfits, and a look at how rock ... see all copies from £42.71! new only from £42.71!
21 view cover	Blues Masters: The Very Best of T-Bone Walker (2000) more music like this by T-Bone Walker A title as lofty as The Very Best of T-Bone Walker begs the question, "Does this CD really contain the seminal Texas bluesman's very best work?" And in fact, this 2000 release (which spans 1945-1957), does contain some of Walker's finest, most essential recordings of the '40s and '50s. It isn't the only collection focusing on Walker's recordings ... see all copies from £10.50! new only from £10.50!
22 view cover	Hot Stuff: The Greatest Hits (1992) more music like this by The Fabulous Thunderbirds 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 £2.93! new only from £4.18!
23 view cover	Dreams Come True (1990) more music like this by Lou Ann Barton Dreams Come True is an all-star session by vocalists Marcia Ball, Lou Ann Barton and Angela Strehli. The three women sing with a band led by Dr. John and the session features guest appearances by such luminaries as David "Fathead" Newman and Jimmie Vaughan. The music is straight out of the Texas school of roadhouse R&B and blues boogie but it's ... see all copies from £6.26! new only from £47.30!
24 view cover	Blues at Sunrise (2000) more music like this by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble The concept behind Blues at Sunrise is a good one: collect ten of SRV's best slow blues numbers, primarily from the official studio albums but also a couple of unreleased cuts and rarities, and sequence them as if they were a lost studio album. It's a neat idea, especially when it's packaged in artwork that deliberately evokes memories of classic ... see all copies from £3.62! new only from £4.18!
25 view cover	Second Winter (1969) more music like this by Johnny Winter Johnny's second Columbia album shows an artist in transition. He's still obviously a Texas bluesman, recording in the same trio format that he left Dallas with. But his music is moving toward the more rock & roll sounds he would go on to create. The opener, "Memory Pain," moves him into psychedelic blues-rock territory, while old-time rockers like ... see all copies from £4.95! new only from £4.95!
