Description
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble Official Website on Sony Music:
By the summer of 1982, Stevie Ray Vaughan was already a veteran of the Southern blues circuit. Desperately searching for his big break, he was asked to play "Blues Night" at the annual Montreux Jazz Festival in Montreux, Switzerland. Playing like his life depended on it, Stevie put on a fiery performance - full of future SRV classics like "Pride And Joy" and "Love Struck Baby." The audience could not have cared less. Every song Stevie played was greeted by an increasing wave of boos and hisses and he left the stage bewildered and heart-broken.
As fate would have it, this would be the most important single show Stevie ever played. In attendance at the festival were two figures who would prove instrumental in Stevie's subsequent rise to stardom: David Bowie and Jackson Browne. They immediately recognized Stevie's raw talent and limitless passion. As a result, Jackson Browne offered Stevie the opportunity to record (free of charge) at his own studio--the tapes that would be Texas Flood--Stevie's first studio album for Epic Records. In addition, Stevie was asked to play on Bowie's hugely successful Let's Dance album and tour ...

Jerry Cantrell - The Official Web Site for exclusive news, photos, and information.
As one of the most influential guitarists of his generation, Jerry Cantrell has made a permanent mark on today’s rock music. His heavy- yet organic-style, paired with soulful songwriting, helped shape the success of the legendary ‘90’s band, Alice in Chains. Echoes of Cantrell’s haunting and melodic music still permeate the modern rock genre, and many new bands unapologetically site Cantrell as a vital influence. Cantrell penned many of Alice in Chains’ innovative songs including “Rooster,” “Would?” and “No Excuses,” which have become rock anthems of this generation.
After five platinum and multi-platinum albums with Alice in Chains, Cantrell honed his singer/songwriter talents, and in 1998 he embarked on a solo career. Boggy Depot (Columbia), his first solo release, was an introspective musical exploration dipping into elements of both rock and country. Cantrell’s sophomore release, 2002’s double CD, Degradation Trip, (Roadrunner), proved to be an intricate 25-song rock and roll masterpiece: raw, powerful and bleeding with emotion.
Famous for his musical integrity, Cantrell is one of the most well respected rock musicians of today. His uncompromising creativity has made him a living legend of rock and roll with a thriving international fan base. Currently working on a new album, he continues to perfect his art. Now Cantrell is gearing up to hit the road again to showcase some of his new songs as well as some old favorites. Cantrell is also collaborating with Billy Duffy of The Cult on a side project, “Cardboard Vampyres.”
