Essential for collectors...

"This set is essential if you want to have a (almost) complete collection of SRV. However, my gripes are in the mixing, most noteably "Texas Flood" and "Sky Is Crying."
In "Texas Flood" Bonnie Raitt's guitar overpowers the mix and should have been remixed completely. With "Sky Is Crying" it is extremely apparent that this version was cut from a much longer one and you can here it 3:07. Even if this song were 20 minutes long I would have preferred a full version over the inclusion of "Oreo Cookie Blues" or "Pipeline."
I dig this disc for the inclusion of a handful of Stevie's guest appearances (for more you'll have to Google his discography to see other artist's whose music he had guested on). But the mixes could have been better."

"This is worth having for the incendiary playing not least on Going Down with Jeff Beck, you can see the video of this on You Tube - amazing!"
