Customer Reviews
Where's the priceless TV performance with Jeff Healey?
It is hard to give a Stevie Ray Vaughan DVD anything less than five stars, but the fact is that most music videos often distract from the song itself with corny, cheesy, or even vomit-provoking images and plots. This collection of SRV music videos was originally released on VHS shortly after his death, but the newly added footage in this DVD makes this a worthy purchase for fans.
While none of the videos here are terrible, any fan of Stevie Ray knows that a music video cannot compare to seeing the man tear it up on stage in a real concert setting. The videos for "Cold Shot" and "Superstition" are fairly humorous and entertaining, and "Little Wing" is a nice little tribute to Stevie's memory. The rest of the videos here are pretty average, and "Good Texan" is a real disappointment that should have never been included in the DVD. It is presented as basically a Jimmie Vaughan solo performance without a single glimpse of Stevie Ray at all!
Vaughan's MTV appearance only months before his death in August 1990 gives us a rare glimpse of his lightning quick acoustic guitar playing and it's a really nice addition to the DVD. Also included is a nice segment of Stevie and brother Jimmie being interviewed and jamming together during the making of their album Family Style. Interviews and behind the scenes material of SRV has never been available on video before, so this footage is definitely a treat.
I recently discovered a truly priceless SRV performance on YouTube that is far better than anything here and was sadly LEFT OFF this DVD! Stevie Ray and the blind guitarist Jeff Healey appeared on stage together and tore the house down with a great version of "Look at little sister" that will blow you away! Jeff Healey stands up and rips into a SCORCHING solo that would have blown most guitarists right off the stage! Stevie immediately unleashes his own solo that matches the same blistering intensity of Healey's solo and the audience gives them a standing ovation at the end as Stevie and Jeff exchange hugs. This is one of the greatest SRV performances I've ever seen and it's even better than the MTV Unplugged performance featured here. Anyone lucky enough to have seen that performance has to be shaking their head wondering WHY it was not included on this DVD!

SRV rocks right from the start of his career!
This is really a cool DVD considerably different than his pure-performance DVD's (all others except this one). If you love SRV and want everything he has done in your collection, I highly recommend this DVD!

Finally!
Hallelujah! It's about time Stevie's videos were released on DVD! This set contains some great bonus material as well. My VHS tape was getting pretty worn out.
I met Stevie back in 1984 and I must say, he was the nicest guy and has been greatly missed.
This DVD is essential for any Stevie Ray fan!
