DO YOU GET THE BLUES won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Blues Album.
In the decade following his departure from The Fabulous Thunderbirds and the death of his younger brother Stevie Ray, Jimmie Vaughan quietly carved out a critically acclaimed solo career steeped in a fusion of soul and blues. Despite parting ways with Nile Rodgers, (who produced Vaughan's first two records), the laid-back Texan goes down the same creative path in assuming the production helm for DO YOU GET THE BLUES?
Tommy Shannon, Roscoe Beck (bass); Billy Horton (upright bass); George Rains (drums, bongos); Jose Galeano (congas, percussion); Greg Sain, James Edward Sain, Rayvon Foster, Charlie Whittington (background vocals).
Blue World Music Studios, Dripping Springs, Texas.
Recorded at Ardent, Memphis, Tennessee; Brooklyn Bridge, Wire, Austin, Texas;
Recorded at Memphis' famed Ardent Studios, Vaughan's third album reunites him with legendary Federal Records house musician Bill Willis, whose juicy organ playing brings to mind the late Bill Doggett on the instrumental opener "Dirty Girl," funky shuffle "Robbin' Me Blind," and gospel-flavored "Out Of The Shadows". Throughout, Vaughan's often underrated and understated style of guitar playing continues to impress whether it's the chunky riffs lightly sprinkled throughout the yearning "Without You" or the crackling twang bubbling throughout the late night "Slow Dance Blues." Longtime friend and fellow Texan Lou Ann Barton also puts in a cameo, wrapping herself in a lusty duet with her fellow Austinite on Johnny "Guitar" Watson's "In The Middle Of The Night" before making like Carla Thomas to Vaughan's Otis Redding on the righteous "Power Of Love."

Down Beat (3/02, p.64) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Arresting solos with an emotional straightforwardness....Vaughn's now singing better than ever....and as a songwriter, the Texan gets good grades, too..." Do You Get The Blues? Music Jimmie Vaughan Do You Get The Blues? Songs Do You Get The Blues? Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)  The Vaughan bro,s what can be said??
While he not Stevie Ray, as his older brother he can still throw out the blues.This Disk is a little more true to its roots,more in the vain of lightning Hoppkins or the old blues players which I love.Somtimes you need less to have more and while most people like Bass and drums the heavy Hammon B3 does the job just as nice and Jimmie does have a sweet playing style .
What more can be said,just sit back and enjoy!!!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No The Power of Jimmie Vaughan
Howdy Folks: Order your own copy of Jimmie Vaughan's "Do You Get The Blues?" and believe me you won't be disappointed. From the instrumental first track, Dirty Girl, to the last jazzy track, Planet Bongo, Jimmie ooozes the Blues! Track #3 entitled The Deep End has Jimmie on slide and James Cotton on harmonica, co-written by Paul Ray. My personal favorites are #5 Without You, co-written by Jimmie's son, Tyrone Vaughan and he plays rhytym guitar on it as well. And check out # 6, Let Me In - very groovy. Jimmie is the man. Order it now. You'll be glad you did. Peace, Kelly D. :)

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No I Get the Blues from Jimmie Vaughan
There isn't a single cut on this CD that I don't like. The best ones are "Power of Love", Don't Let the Sun Set", and "In the Middle of the Night". This is a great CD!!

| | Kid Ramos Greasy Kid's Stuff CD (2001)
Do You Get The Blues?
$13.55
For his fourth solo release, and third on the Evidence label, the Fabulous Thunderbirds' guitarist, Kid Ramos, once again calls in some high-profile blues friends for assistance. Instead of last album's guitarists and jump blues horns, this time Ramos sticks with harpists/vocalists to provide the momentum on a set of relatively stripped-down, greasy blues. He's also the only guitarist on the sessions, which makes this a spotlight for his picking as well as his bandleading abilities. Harmonica aces Rick Estrin (Little Charlie & the ...
