Back in 1983, this actually happened. 60 year old Albert King and 29 year old Stevie Ray Vaughan were invited to do a joint jam for live television in Canada, and both artists agreed to do it. King was Vaughan’s hero, and King knew Vaughan from when he used to hang around King’s shows years before he became well known. So there was a lot of familiarity to begin with. After the show aired, it sat unknown for years. Vaughan died in 1990, and King passed away in 1992. And then, in 1999, the recordings were made public with both a CD and a DVD release. The track listings for each are different (so you may want to own both), but this should be a joy for anyone who loves great blues guitar music. This is a posthumous gem from two of the very best, and it showcases them in the best possible light.
The album is mostly King’s set of songs (the only Stevie Ray track here is “Pride And Joy”), but the coolest thing about this is that King encourages and gives Vaughan room to explore these great songs throughout. King actually WANTS Vaughan to take the solo, to take the spotlight. Another big plus here is that there are several dialogue tracks, on which King tells Vaughan to go for it and let it out, while Stevie Ray is mostly quiet and seemingly in awe of his mentor…and then when the song begins, Vaughan simply shreds, many times to the obvious delight of King. This is a rarity in which you can actually hear the master passing his torch to the young phenom, and it is received with much gratitude. This gift from almost a decade after both of these guitar giants were taken from us is truly a wonderful thing, and if you have any love for the blues…if you have any love for music, period…you should take a listen to a pair of the best sharing a stage in the absolute best way possible.

By 1999, it was pretty apparent to many that Guns N’ Roses was over as a band. Except for a rather unfortunate album of covers, they hadn’t released a real album of new material in 8 years…not since the Use Your Illusion 2fer in 1991. The worst part was, it didn’t look like there was going to be anything in the near future, either. (It was another decade before G N’ R, in name and lead singer only, put out the highly overrated Chines Democracy). The only thing that Geffen Records could do was to put out a live album to help fill the void. And thus, we have Live Era ’87-’93. This is, not surprisingly, their worst selling albums. It has more problems than great moments, and is easily the least important part of their discography.
Despite its title, only three of these tracks were from the 1980’s. The rest were all from the Use Your Illusion tours between 1991 and 1993. The band played everything as close to the studio versions as possible, so there’s next to nothing added to the originals beside crowd noise and some rude banter by Axl Rose. And had anyone cared about the quality of the product they were putting out, they could have at least attempted to make it sound like a real live show instead of chopping and stopping with dead silence between every track. The only real positive here is that Rose is actually in good voice on these selections…something that was iffy during this period. Stick to the studio versions…there’s nothing new or important here.
