SRV Featured In March 2011 Issue Of Cowboys & Indians Magazine

In its March 2011 issue, Cowboys & Indians magazine has interviewed Stevie Ray Vaughan's brother, Jimmie Vaughan, and bassist Tommy Shannon. In his interview, Tommy calls playing in Double Trouble "the best 10 years of my life." The magazine also gives a rave review to the Legacy edition of "Couldn't Stand The Weather," noting: "You’d be hard-pressed to find anybody who questions Vaughan’s virtuosity on the instrument ... I find it hard to believe that anyone could find fault with the kind of dynamic musicianship and unbridled passion he brought to the guitar."

You can read the Jimmie Vaughan interview, 10 of Jimmie's favorite albums and songs, the interview with Tommy Shannon, and the review of "Couldn't Stand The Weather" at the Cowboys & Indians website.

to this very day, I still find it extremely difficult to understand why my friend was taken. I met Stevie in the early seventies. Even then I could tell he was special. It was like every show he played you could just see how much better he had become. Our friendship lasted to the very end. I miss my friend. I miss you Stevie. I know your spirit is flying high and free. Peace be with you.

I was introduced to Stevie Ray by someone years ago. His music is fantastic, like he put his entire being into it. I have since introduced younger people to his music and have been pleasantly surprised that they find it fascinating! Thanks for the interviews.
