"Back in March I was in Austin for SXSW. Jimmie Vaughan played the Texas Music Hall on Saturday the 20th. For me this one turned out to be inspirational. It was one of those times when I had the feeling I needed to make the effort and attend a live show. (The whole thing was broadcast over some website and I'm still trying to get an audio copy.) The next week I bought STRANGE PLEASURE, which came out on Epic in 1994. It's as good as the Austin concert. I'm a few years late here and there is a newer album out now, but "Strange Pleasure" is Jimmie (the future of the-real-thing blues) on record at his best.
