5.0 out of 5 stars This 2nd Edition is Far Superior to the 1st, April 8, 2000
By 
Philip Snyder (Amherst, New York United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Lightnin' Blues 1983-1987 (Paperback)
I'm not sure if "Reader from Australia" in the previous review has the 1st Edition of this book, but I'll assume so. In this 2nd Edition, nothing has changed but the transcriptions (cover and song selections are identical), and these have been done by Jesse Gress (he did the work on the IN STEP guitar book among others). The TAB is great and the selections give a wonderful overview of Stevie's recorded output from 1983 through 1987.

The songs included are: [from TEXAS FLOOD] Dirty Pool - I'm Cryin' - Love Struck Baby - Mary Had A Little Lamb - Pride And Joy - Texas Flood [from COULDN'T STAND THE WEATHER] Cold Shot - Couldn't Stand The Weather - Honey Bee - Scuttle Buttin' - Stang's Swang - Voodoo Child (Slight Return) [from SOUL TO SOUL] Change It - Come On (Part III) - Gone Home - Life Without You - Look At Little Sister - Lookin' Out The Window - You'll Be Mine [from LIVE ALIVE] Ain't Gone 'n' Give Up On Love - I'm Leaving You (Commit A Crime) - Say What! - Superstition - Willy The Wimp [from BACK TO THE BEACH] Pipeline.

Keep in mind this is the 2nd Edition (this is stamped in white on the front cover just beneath the "Recorded Versions" logo). Though the description above doesn't designate this, the photo Amazon provides does (though it's not too legible).

Bottom Line: More then enough blistering SRV style blues to shred anyone's fingers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Stevie Ray tab, November 2, 2002
By 
Mater Trader (Arab, AL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Lightnin' Blues 1983-1987 (Paperback)
If you want to play some of SRV's songs get this book. I have the second edition and I have found the transcriptions to be quite accurate. I have found SRV transcriptions from other books that were not accurate. For example, Pride and Joy from the Hal Leonard "Blues Guitar Bible" is not accurate. It sounds as if the "Bible" version was transcribed from a different version of the song. Oddly enough, both books are Hal Leonard books. Bottom line, make sure you get the second edition transcribed by Jesse Gress.

5.0 out of 5 stars PLAY ALONG, OR JUST PLAY BETTER!!!, September 17, 2004
By 
guitar19 (GuitarWorld19) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Lightnin' Blues 1983-1987 (Paperback)
This is the greatest Stevie Ray Vaughan guitar-tablature book by all means......including 25 guitar song's spanning SRV's entire career with blistiring blues songs including Texas Flood, and Come On(Pt.3). This also includes live recordings like Im Leaving You(Commit A Crime), and Say What. This also features Pipeline from David Bowie's back to the beach album. This 2nd edition is better than the first they corrected many of their mistakes. This is the closest you will get to steive ray vaughan. I recomend this book to any guitarist seeking for only the best. Everyone can play along to this Lightnin' Blues spanning through 83-87. Enjoy!
