Beschreibung
It is no easy feat to capture the enormous spirit of Stevie Ray Vaughan, a
man whose presence in the world was like an untamable fire, shooting flames
of raw talent, passion, and innovation. That bright light wrestled with a
dark side, an addiction and sadness that threatened to put out the fire
forever. His unmatched guitar playing, buttery vocals, and unforgettable
songs made him a triple threat. Vaughan is arguably the greatest guitar god
who has ever lived - a re-inventor of guitar and the blues. Twenty years
after his death, he lives on in the hearts of millions of people around the
world.
In a day-by-day format, Craig Hopkins presents an unprecedented celebration
of this wonderful artist. This book is the first installment of a two-volume
account of Vaughan's life. With this work, Hopkins delivers one of the most
detailed biographies of any musician. This edition covers the complete
history of Vaughan's roots, from his childhood to just before his first major
release. Filled with testimonials from those who knew him best and from fans
everywhere, along with facts about tour dates and recordings, stories about
his bands and life on the road, rare artistic and historic photographs, and
more, this lavishly illustrated book is the ultimate collector's item for any
Stevie Ray Vaughan fan.
