DVD Reviews of Stevie Ray Vaughan: Pride and Joy
DVD Review: Only Get This AFTER You Own Stevie Ray Vaughan's Other 3 LIVE DVDs!
Summary: 3 Stars
I thoroughly enjoy Stevie Ray Vaughan as much as any fan, so I can refer you with experience that this PRIDE AND JOY DVD is best left for purchase until after you have all three of his vastly superior live concert DVDs!
These mostly low budget, mostly primitive videos are not a very good representation of Stevie Ray Vaughan, or why he was popular. In fact, it is a wonder that he was so popular DESPITE how bad some of these videos are. I had never seen most of these videos until purchasing this DVD in 2007, but I don't feel like I missed out on anything on this DVD, and I am kind of embarrassed to show this DVD to anybody who doesn't already know how great and cool Stevie Ray was on his live DVDs.
It is much better to buy any of his three live concert DVDs, if you want to see what Stevie Ray Vaughan was all about, and why he was so popular, despite never having much in the way of MTV music videos to promote him.
On this PRIDE AND JOY DVD, the video for "Cold Shot" has an overweight girlfriend with a front tooth missing, constantly putting Stevie into the hospital over his love of guitars overshadowing his love for her. Is it funny or cheesey?
The video for "Superstition" has Stevie, his band, and stagehands, breaking all kinds of bad luck activities, like walking under a ladder, etc., while a black cat stalks the video. Is it funny or cheesey?
When you think of Stevie Ray Vaughan, do you think of funny and cheesey or do you think of a serious guitar bluesman? That's my point!
"Change It" is fairly decent and serious, but "The House Is Rocking" tries too hard to show Stevie as a frat party band, more like Blink 182 than the serious blues guitarist that Stevie Ray Vaughan was.
The best clips are Stevie doing three songs on the old MTV UNPLUGGED show, and a short interview piece with Stevie and his brother while recording the album FAMILY STYLE. Family Style
Missing is the MTV appearance of Stevie Ray performing "Superstition," live, with the original artist Stevie Wonder, with backing vocals by Salt-n-Pepa!
I would suggest that before you buy this, you buy any of his far superior, live concert DVDs, if you want the best buy for your money. Leave this PRIDE AND JOY DVD for last.
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN AND DOUBLE TROUBLE: LIVE AT MONTREUX 1982 & 1985 is probably the best DVD to get, since it includes the famous concert performance of 1982, when they were starving artists and without ever having a recording contract, which got Stevie discovered by David Bowie, (and more importantly led to his meeting Jackson Browne, who would let Stevie record his first album for free at Browne's studio). You also get a second, even better, Montreux concert from 1985, after they had established themselves as serious and successful musicians in the recording industry. Both shows are great! Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble - Live at Montreux 1982 & 1985
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN LIVE FROM AUSTIN, TEXAS is another great DVD, featuring two different shows, years apart yet at the same venue. This time it is from the 1980's PBS series that featured different artists every week. This DVD gives you the two times that Stevie Ray was the featured artist of the week. Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Live From Austin, Texas
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN: LIVE AT THE EL MACAMBO is an intense, smoking concert, and maybe the single best show of all three DVDs, but you only get the one concert. It is still just as good of a purchase as the AUSTIN or MONTREUX live DVDs. Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble - Live at the El Mocambo 1983
