Texas Flood (Ultradisc one step Mofi 45rpm) UD1S

Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's Texas Flood announces the arrival of a truly special talent-namely, the last major blues guitarist to emerge with a voice all his own, an immediately distinctive style, and a soulfulness you feel inside the depths of your existence. Not for nothing is Vaughan ranked the 12th Greatest Guitarist in history by Rolling Stone. Spending more than half a year on the Billboard charts and rippling with a freshness that joins contemporary Texas blues and muscular rock at the hip, this 1983 debut started it all. Strictly limited to 7,000 numbered copies and pressed at RTI on SuperVinyl, Mobile Fidelity's UltraDisc One-Step collector's edition brings Vaughan and Co. Into your room and places them at your feet. You'll enjoy deep-black backgrounds, pointillist details, staggering dynamics, and arguably, the most lifelike nuances ever committed to vinyl. Experienced via UD1S, Vaughan's scrunchedup face, closed-eyes appearance, quick-draw fingers, and cowboy hat come into pristine focus. The searing tones from his Fender Stratocaster and every touch of his pick on the strings are captured with extreme delicacy. This is the closest you will ever come to hearing Vaughan perform at Antone's, circa 1982.
