Review Soul to Soul / Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble:

Arguably the finest blues guitarist of his generation, Wisconsin-born Stevie Ray Vaughan initially learnt his chops on his brother-and Fabulous Thunderbirds' mainstay-Jimmie's hand-me-down guitars whilst glued to the works of Albert King and Lonnie Mack. After honing his skills in the late 70s with a variety of lacklustre combos, he was headhunted by David Bowie for 1983's Let's Dance tour, but left early to concentrate on his solo work. On this, his third album, Vaughan's virtuosity is both augmented and accentuated by Double Trouble, a backing band of rare competence, finally allowed to shine after having played a singularly supportive role to Stevie on earlier efforts. From the throbbing mid-tempo blues grooves of "Say What", through the barroom shuffle of "Look At Little Sister" to the head-spinning, flying-finger dexterity of "Empty Arms", Soul To Soul stands as a fitting epitaph to a true master of the blues. -Ian Fortnam.

Review Matchbox Blues: the Essential Recordings / Blind Lemon Jefferson:

This is an extraordinarily vivid piece of jazz history. Blind Lemon was the man who first popularised the blues and broke the hold that vaudeville performers had on popular music. His recordings, done in a brief period from 1925 until his death in 1929, introduced black people in the cities to the rural blues. Blind from birth, he was unable to work on the land and became a wandering singer, working in sporting houses, drinking dens and at house parties. He was by necessity tough and he carried a gun, which he used on occasion. His songs reflect the whole gamut of the hard life of his times and are permeated by an astringent humour. Jefferson's guitar playing was basic but well suited to the hard voice and the graphic lyrics. These tracks were much sought after collectors' items for decades, and listening to the famous "Black Snake Moan" and "See That My Grave Is Kept Clean" one can hear why. Naturally the recording quality of these 78s is not magnificent, but the music cuts through and grabs you by the neck. -Steve Voce.
