THE SKY IS CRYING is a collection of 10 previously unreleased studio tracks compiled by Stevie Ray's brother Jimmie Vaughan.

Master Sound releases are 24-karat gold CDs remastered from first generation masters. This process utilizes 20-bit technology and Sony's "Super Bit Mapping" system.

Vaughan's death in August 1990 brought to a tragic end the surging wave of his popularity. The album he had made with his brother Jimmie, FAMILY STYLE, had just been released and this album, prepared by Jimmie from the various album sessions, was not expected to amount to much. In fact, this was at least as good as any of them--and better than LIVE ALIVE. "Little Wing" was perhaps his best adaptation of a Jimi Hendrix song. His take on the Elmore James title song was also a fitting tribute to both the writer and the performer. There are bound to be further compilations and live recordings released, but these studio recordings are testimony to Stevie Ray's devotion to his craft.

Recorded at The Power Station, New York, New York in January and February, 1984; The Dallas Sound Lab, Dallas, Texas in March and May, 1985; Kiva Studios, Memphis, Tennessee in February and April, 1989; Sound Castle Studios, Los Angeles, California in April and May, 1989.

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars highly recommended
This is really an EXCELLENT album. All the power of the blues tradition, but there is originality. SRV is an emotional, groovy, and technically gifted guitarist. I think the highlight is his version of 'Little Wing.' It is just unbelievable. Not every song is fantastic. Close To You is almost disappointing, but that's just in contrast to the rest of the Album. Vaughan is back by very solid musicians. No discerning ear, especially with a blues background, could dismiss this gem.

5 stars HIS BEST ALBUM BY FAR
THESE SUPPOSED OUTTAKES AND REJECTS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE A SCRAPING TOGETHER OF LEFTOVERS FOR DIEHARD FANS , BUT ONE LISTEN WILL CONFIRM THAT THIS IS EASILY STEVIE'S BEST SONG SELECTION AND PLAYING. HECK , EVEN THE VERSION OF HENDRIX' "LITTLE WING" WAS AN FM HIT!! ALL KILLER AND NO FILLER - A MUST FOR ANY FAN OF GOOD MUSIC PERIOD. OWN THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!
