Mastered from the original analog tapes by Sterling Sound

First 1,000 boxes gold foil-numbered

"The new remastering sounds amazing. Better than it ever did. I'm happy and pleasantly surprised." — Chris "Whipper" Layton

"I've also heard test pressings of these SRV albums and they will rock your world!" — Michael Fremer, editor, AnalogPlanet.com

"...it just may be that what we have here is the best replication of the master tapes to date...beautiful pressings of the six LPs. They've never sounded better." — Gregg Geller, producer and A&R man

"This is visceral, hair-raising stuff." — Andy Aledort, senior editor of Guitar World and author of the liner notes for Analogue Productions' Stevie Ray Vaughan Box Set

"These recordings have never sounded this good, and likely will never sound better. Layers seem to have been stripped away, and the music seems to have been set free. Vaughan's guitar has new bite and edge...sonically, all questions have now been answered: Texas Hurricane is the Stevie Ray set to own and enjoy." — Performance = 5 Stars, Sonics = 5 Stars. Robert Baird, Stereophile, July 2014. Read Baird's full review here: http://www.stereophile.com/content/recording-july-2014-texas-hurricane

We've gone completely all-out for this project. We've used the original 30 inches-per-second, half-inch analog master tapes for all of these studio albums as well as for the bonus tracks included on the SACDs. Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound cut the lacquers for the LPs using the ultimate VMS 80 cutting lathe. Gary Salstrom handled the plating and the vinyl was pressed of course at Quality Record Pressings. Andy Aledort, senior editor for Guitar World, wrote the liners with contributions from Stevie Ray Vaughan biographer Craig Hopkins. This set includes a deluxe booklet. And all of the records are housed in a deluxe box (the first 1,000 are gold foil-numbered).

We've also used the correct original master for Soul To Soul. Every version of this record since 1999 has been from an incorrect source with the wrong take of the track "Life Without You." We've got it just as the original.

Another factor separating these SRV SACDS — they include bonus tracks sourced from the original master tapes.

There's not a link in this chain that wasn't absolute first-rate. The absolute best that money can buy.

But beyond that we've poured our passion into this project. Acoustic Sounds is a big fan of the blues and Stevie Ray Vaughan. It's a big dream come true to work on this project and to make these records sound and look the best they ever have.
