Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Live at Carnegie Hall (1997)

“Live at Carnegie Hall” is a live Texas blues album by Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, released on July 29, 1997 by Epic Records. The concert was recorded at New York City's Carnegie Hall on October 4, 1984, a day after Vaughan's thirtieth birthday (leading to Vaughan's description of the show as "My best birthday ever ... forever"), and was a benefit for the T.J. Martell Foundation.
Special guests included drummer George Rains, Dr. John on keyboards, the Roomful of Blues horn section, brother Jimmie Vaughan on guitar, and vocalist Angela Strehli. This was the first and only time in the band's history that the trio was expanded. The ensemble wore custom-tailored mariachi suits and a special stage set was designed, complete with drum and horn risers.
The set list was in large part Vaughan's personal, private, tribute to his models; his brother Jimmie Vaughan later recalled "Stevie told me he was gonna play the music of his heroes, the guys who never got to play Carnegie Hall ... He didn't announce it to the audience, he didn't say anything to the people at the label. It was just something between the two of us. That's why you've got those tunes by Guitar Slim, Albert Collins, and Albert King."
Several songs from the concert were left off the album, including a Jimi Hendrix cover of "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" and "The Sky Is Crying". These tracks were later released on the SRV box set in 2000.
In the audience were some of Vaughan's closest friends and family. Among them were his wife at the time, Lenny Bailey, and his parents, who were flown to New York City from Texas. John Hammond, who signed the band to Epic Records, was at the show to introduce Vaughan as "one of the great guitar players of all time".
