SRV is Austin’s own guitar virtuoso. This album of previously unreleased songs, published a year after his death, showcases his guitar wizardry, his influences, and his ability to take blues and rock standards and make them all his own. Here’s what our buddies at Waterloo have to say about it:
“Grammy Award winning album The Sky is Crying contains all the great Texas Electric Blues tracks Stevie played with Double Trouble from his early days at Antone’s at 29th & Guadalupe until his untimely death after playing his last show at Alpine Valley, WI. An epochal Austin classic album, these are the songs that lifted the statue into the skyline.”
