Stevie Ray Vaughan - THE FIRST BROADCAST Vinyl LP

At the time of the performance captured on this LP - 22nd July 1980 - Stevie Ray Vaughan had yet to release any records under his own name. He did however possess a rock-solid grounding as a live performer, having formed his first band, The Chantones, fifteen years earlier in Dallas, Texas, at the tender age of 10! This fabulous radio broadcast comes from The King’s Head Inn, a tiny venue popular with students near the Old Dominion University campus, in Norfolk, Virginia, that could accommodate barely 100 people. Luckily, local radio station WNOR was on hand to preserve this storming performance by the soon-to-become-legendary Blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan.
