Description
Stevie Ray Vaughan And Double Trouble - Texas Hurricane Box Set (New/Sealed). This box set is sealed but there is a small tear in the shrink wrap as shown in photos. This is a numbered limited edition (No. 0051), box set issued by Analogue Productions in 2014. Includes 12 LP's pressed on 200 gram vinyl at quality record pressings. I am the original owner and longtime audiophile and selling from my personal record collection. Box Set will be carefully packaged in a heavy duty box for shipping.
Yet again Chad Kassem sets high the box set reissue bar delivering a “must have” package for SRV fans, every bit the equal of the one Doors fans have come to cherish.
The physical box itself is similar to the Doors box— a sturdy fold-open construction here finished in faux, non-texture leather. Inside are the six studio records: Texas Flood, Couldn’t Stand the Weather, Soul to Soul, In Step, Family Style, and the posthumous compilation The Sky is Crying.
All are presented in double gatefold paper on cardboard “Tip On” jackets, even when the originals, like The Sky is Crying were not gatefolds. Along with producing better looking packages the gatefolds allow for double pockets used for the double 45rpm version of the set, which is also available on hybrid SACD with bonus tracks.
The box also includes a very nicely turned out full sized booklet filled with wonderful photos and well-considered annotation by Guitar World senior editor Andy Aledort plus a contribution by Vaughan biographer Craig Hopkins.
As always with Mr. Kassem, when possible, only original analog master tapes were used—in this case 30 IPS, ½” tapes. Though In Step was digitally recorded Analogue Productions says an analog tape was supplied for mastering.
Mastering honors go to Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound
