5.0 out of 5 stars Deceptive Packaging, Great Music, July 6, 2004

I purchased a "book" format box set called "Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble - The Collection" because the price was very enticing for a three-disc box set, as advertised in the Tower ad. When I arrived at the store, I realized the "The Collection", one in a series of such collections by Columbia/Epic artists, was simply a re-packaging of this original box set, expanded versions of his first three albums, rather than a budget-priced "best-of" box that I expected. Well, I bought it anyway, and I'm glad I did. This is indeed the best way to introduce yourself to SRV's early releases, and the price is right. (Some fans may argue his first three releases contain most of his best work anyway.) The bonus tracks may seem repetitive as listed, but they are in fact very tasty alternate takes of the final versions. So don't let the deceptive packaging by Columbia/Epic fool you - both these collections are one and the same. And they are great.

The best way to get all the original albums at one time. The music speaks for itself.
