Description
Double vinyl LP including 5 tracks not on original vinyl LP, mastered from the original analogue tapes by Ray Staff at Alchemy. Pressed on 180 gram vinyl by Pallas.
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 genuine star and, in doing so, sparked a revitalization of the blues.
