Stevie Ray Vaughan The Sky Is Crying



Stevie Ray Vaughan's The Sky Is Crying is a posthumous compilation that was released in 1991 about a year after Stevie's untimely death in 1990. Stevie's Electric Blues style is unmatched by any other and his heavy influence by psychedelic artists of early classic rock and blues shows through in this compilation. This album contains some of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. SRV's cover of the Jimi Hendrix tune "Little Wing" won a grammy but that's not why you should listen to it. It's simply an awesome song. Grab this album and put it on VERY loud. Whether you play guitar or not, whether you like blues or not... SRV will get your attention and keep it.
