5.0 out of 5 stars HE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN - 10/03/1954 - Forever, October 3, 2001

By	Soaring Heart - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This video shows a lot of sides of Stevie's personality. He truly had a heart of gold. And yes, all the reviewers here agree he is a Master, one can tell that just by listening to him playing with eyes closed! But watching him it is immediately and definitely apparent.

These video clips are fantastic! I especially love "Love Struck Baby," (he's the boss-like there was ever any doubt!) "Cold Shot," (shows his sense of humor) "Couldn't Stand the Weather" is truly awesome (I love them "playing" in the storm and changing winds! The ending is perfect!) and "Change It." (The good ole west--ahhhh.) Honestly I love all of the videos but those stand out the most for me. The last song "Crossfire" he looks better than I believe I've ever seen.

I wish this was in DVD but if you are a fan, it is a must-own. I highly recommend it and promise if you care anything for Stevie and his awesome band you will enjoy it. Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Several music videos and a live track from New Orleans, May 17, 2000

By	wlwood - See all my reviews

First up, I am an avowed SRV fan; this review can be considered somewhat biased. The VHS version is a compilation of music videos released during the 80's. The videos span the period from an early 80's "Pride and Joy" set in none other than Austin's Rome Inn club to the late 80's release of Crossfire. I particularly like Cold Shot and SRV's swampy rendition of Superstition; the video's story line is cool too. The real treat for me was the live MTV video taped aboard the riverboat President in New Orleans. SRV and Double Trouble treat the crowd to a marvelous rendition of Chester Burnett's I'm Leaving You (Commit a Crime). So, with this tape, you'll get a good look at SRV in his awesome, barn-burnin' 20's (Pride & Joy, Cold Shot), his drug and alchohol-plagued years (Change It...he looks like an old man), and during his amazing post-rehab period in the late 80's (New Orleans, Crossfire). All-in-all a good tribute to SRV and Double Trouble. And with SRV, how can you go wrong?

5.0 out of 5 stars Stevie played like he knew time was short., June 22, 2000

By	glenn davis (USA) - See all my reviews

I had this video for about a year. I lent it to friend and never got it back, that is probably an indication of how good it is. As a blues guitarist myself, I only wish this video had more close-in camera work of Stevie's hands as he played. His technique was absolutely unbelievable. He used very heavy gauge strings which he pushed to the limit and his aggressive yet unfathomably accurate fingers are still without parallel today. Seeing all of his videos on one tape gives the viewer a true appreciate of the depth and breadth of this man's talent.
