CD: STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN VERIFIED SKY CRYING MFSL ORIGINAL 24K GOLD CD + SACD BONUS
Each CD was pressed directly from the original studio master session tapes ; the purest source of musical information and engineered to produce the finest CD sound quality available.
Every compact disc delivers the music to you with all the depth, dynamics, and richness of the live recording session. We invite you to hear the three-dimensional quality of the music just as the artist intended for it to sound.
The proprietary mastering technology extracts and transparently stores more musical information from the original master tapes than any other method in existence.
For the discriminating listener, the results include: a wider range of frequencies, increased depth and room dimension cues, clarity, and separation of instruments.
The technology substantially decreases characteristics such as hardness and glare bringing the sound of CD even closer to the warmth and openess of analogue.
Why Buy 24K Gold CDs? Aluminum particles are rough, resulting in pits and irregularities on the playing surface. Gold particles are uniform and have a constant rate of reflection giving an even, reproductive sound quality. Also, 24K Gold CDs will not oxidize or tarnish and will last for years longer than traditional aluminum CDs

Released the year after Stevie Ray Vaughan's death in August of 1990, The Sky Is Crying was Jimmie Vaughan's loving tribute to his little brother. Jimmie assembled nine previously unreleased studio tracks (1984-1989) by Stevie Ray and his band Double Trouble. Another song, Empty Arms, appeared in a different version on the album Soul To Soul (1985). Meticulously-written liner notes offer tidbits about each song on the recording.
Originally released by Epic in 1991, many critics argue that The Sky Is Crying may be Vaughan's finest album with its superb, natural playing. This recording also offers an excellent overview of his various musical styles; from an impeccable rendition of Jimi Hendrix's Little Wing to the Lonnie Mack classic Wham. The recording ends with Stevie Ray's first acoustic solo, Life By The Drop a song of emotional significance. The music world may have lost one of its brilliant talents in 1990; but now, Stevie Ray Vaughan's musical legend is showcased with a recording of appropriate sonic splendor. Mobile Fidelity lets the music live....

Mastered From Original Master Tapes
A debut seemingly sent from the musical heavens, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's Texas Flood announces the arrival of a truly special talent - namely, the last major blues guitarist to emerge with a voice all his own, an immediately distinctive style and a soulfulness that you feel inside the depths of your existence. Not for nothing was Vaughan frequently mentioned in the same breath as his closest musical cousin, Jimi Hendrix.
This staggering 1983 album has been remastered and reconfigured multiple times, yielding sporadic results. Mobile Fidelity finally gets it right: Mastered from the original master tapes, this hands-down definitive digital version brings Vaughan and Co. into your listening room and places them at your feet. Vaughan's trademark Fender Stratocaster has never sounded more real, electric or authentic on record.
