Albert King with Stevie Ray Vaughan.

If don't have it, you have to get it! It's a must have if you like the blues. There's a recently released awesome CD and DVD combo. Go to that Amazon place and get the CD & DVD combo for about $14, you won't regret it.

Two legends hanging out and jamming. They make playing the guitar look so effortless.

Thanks for the heads up. Downloading the album now. I love (and live) the Blues.

I've worn out the In Session CD at least twice (scratched because it's always kicking around in the car) . Rather than keep buying copies I'm backing up my CD collection. If you would like to be an off site archive for my files, PM me with your addy. I'll send you a copy of the In Session DVD and CD for you to save for me.

This offer stands for all. I'm really bad at keeping DVD's and CD's scratch free (I blame my kids). I need help to archive my library.

Wow That's awesome. I'll have to pick that up.

I was suspose to go to the SVR and Double Troube concert @ Alpine Valley in 1990. I missed his last

concert because I went to a friends wedding . His Helo went down, it was a sad day.

Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, and Robert Cray one heck of a line up..

Thanks for the heads-up about the new Gregg Allman Album. Check-out Derek Trucks Band (son of Butch Trucks - the original Allman Brothers drummer) and Susan Tedeschi. Married Blues couple with their own individual bands, and also played back-up with Buddy Guy on one of his releases (Skin Deep - 2008).

IMHO there's no better music be produced than the rhythm and blues.

that's a great CD!

got all of SRV stuff and a lot of B.B's. was lucky enough to see SRV about 6/7 times and wish I still could.

Derrik Trucks is a good one too. nobody knows about him...yet. son of Butch Trucks though....married to some blues gal.

If you like the blues check out Robben Ford and Chris Duarte.

some of the best pickers around.

Yep... got SiriusXM just for the Blues channel. 150 channels and only 1 channel tuned in. Never saw Albert (bummed). Think Nighthawks was before Jimmy came out with his first CD. Good blue-collar texas-style jammin blues.

Not to thread-jack BuckyB93 and his reference to SRV... great CD/DVD Set. All in honor...

i agree witchya! i wish i had sirius/ xm just for that. I rented a car in Tampa last year that had xm and it's almost a must have just for the one station....

back to SRV...anybody ever see him play with the thunderbirds while his brother was with them?

SRV and Jimmy play a double neck together. has to be one of the coolest things ever!
