A Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan Completo - Videos On-line ...

From the Annals of Guitar Heroes –   In 1995, B. B. King, Eric Clapton,  Robert Cray, Bonnie Raitt, Buddy Guy, Jimmie Vaughan, Dr. John and SRV’s bandmates from Double Trouble appeared for the filming of a “Tribute to Stevie Ray Vaughan” in the Austin City Limits venue.  The TV movie version of the concert was released in 1996 and received critical praise.  Vaughn’s old band Double Trouble, led by his brother Jimmie, and the big time stars play tribute to the late-great blues man.  In between the songs are tributes by the guest stars and excerpts of Vaughan’s performances from various concerts.
