June 23: New record company website for SRV. See the Trivia page of  the News.

June 18: Link to (corrected) press release for the Couldn't Stand the Weather reissue coming in July -- see the News page.

June 15: Updated release date for the SRV/Albert King CD/DVD on the News page. (Sept. 28)

June 7: R.I.P. Chuck Pulin. Many of Chuck's photos of Stevie grace the pages of my book. He paseed away at age 69 in April. I traveled to New York in 2007 to review hundreds of images he took of Stevie. He photographed Stevie almost every time he was in New York from 1982 through 1990, including the now famous "audition" for the Rolling Stones in 1982. Chuck was extremely friendly and I enjoyed talking with him even after our business was completed. Sometimes business encounters lead to friendship, and I thought of Chuck as my friend. I was very sad to learn of his passing. Interestingly, that's Chuck with his camera in the photo on page 256 behind the girl reaching up to touch Stevie. Posted by Jim Henke on the R&R HoF site: "Today I received the heart-breaking news that Chuck Pulin had passed away. Chuck was one of the great rock and roll photographers. He began shooting in the early Seventies, and over the years he photographed everyone from Elvis Presley to the Rolling Stones, from Frank Sinatra to Elton John, from Madonna to Bon Jovi. He chronicled the history of such famous New York clubs as Max’s Kansas City, CBGB, the Bottom Line and the Mudd Club. For many years, he was one of the primary photographers for Billboard, the music-industry trade magazine. And his photos appeared on scores of album covers, including records by Simon and Garfunkel, the New Riders of the Purple Sage and Miles Davis, to name but a few. Perhaps most importantly, Chuck was one of the most well-liked people in the rock world. He had no enemies, and virtually everyone admired him and his work. His passing is a true loss to the music world and the photography world." 
    On an even sadder note, someone broke into Chuck's apartment a few days after he died and stole a lifetime's work - all his photos and negatives. If you find anyone selling images you can identify as Chuck's, please contact the New York police department. This probably wasn't a random theft, but someone who knew what was in Chuck's apartment and that he had died. 

June 3: Another update regarding SRV/ Albert King releases on the News page.

June 2: Updates to new releases and new SRV magazine article on the News page.

May 22: Updates to new SRV CD/DVD releases on the News page. (Thanks for updates from David Clarke and Bob O'hara.)  Guitar World's July issue will feature SRV.

May 17: My book will be republished by Hal Leonard Corp this fall. They will split it into two volumes. Their listing now on Amazon is for the first half of the book, subtitled The Early Years. If you want the whole book I still have the signed, limited first edition for sale on this website as noted above. This means the signed first edition, limited to 3200 copies, will be more collectible and I will not be reprinting it.

April 30: Some info on new releases on the News page.

April 14: I am going through my entire collection creating a catalog and some items are ending up for sale in the Store. I will be adding more items for sale out of my collection throughout the next couple of months. Check back often, as some items go quickly.

April 12: No confirmations of any releases or events regarding 2010 being 20 years since Stevie died. If there are any, I will post the information.

April 12: Sony has changed the release date again for the CSTW Legacy edition, so it will not be out this month after all. No date available.

April 11: Are SRV items collectible? An SRV 8-Track tape (how many of you even know what that is?) just sold for $156. The only other one I've seen in 20 years went for $179.

April 9: Updated page 2 of the News page with results of the auction of one of Stevie's suit jackets. 
I will be thinning out my collection of SRV records and CDs in the near future, so keep an eye on the Store.

April 1: The Spring Garage Sale has started! Go to the Store for three pages of items for sale.  

March 12: Want to have your photo taken in the same spot Stevie was standing for the Soul to  Soul album cover? See page 2 of the News page.

February 23: Legacy edition of Couldn't Stand the Weather has a new release date. See the News page.

February 22: Stevie's jacket to be auctioned in April. See page 2 of the News page for details on this rare opportunity to own an item from Stevie's wardrobe!

February 13: In The Studio radio show to feature SRV. See page 2 of the News page.

January 26: Check the Links page for a new offer on an SRV photo print available in both limited edition high quality and lower cost prints in multiple sizes and with a framing option. A great image of Stevie by Stephen Stickler taken during the filming of the "Crossfire" music video in 1989. Also added a News item re a revised edition of the Guitar World book of magazine article reprints, coming out in April.

January 19: Stevie is mentioned in the dialogue of The Tooth Fairy movie. See the News page for more appearances of Stevie in films, TV and commercials.

2009

December 17: SRV has been elected to the Austin Music Memorial. More info on the News page.

November 14: Some of you will remember Christina from the 2003 fan club tour. I have been hearing her on Sirius/XM radio lately (she goes by Cee Cee James). She has been invited to participate in the Int'l Blues Challenge competition in Memphis, but needs help raising the traveling expenses. If you would like to help a fellow SRV fan with an important opportunity in her career, she is accepting donations of any amount. Go to www.ceeceejames.com for more inforamtion. Go Cee Cee!

October 29: Though remembrances of Stevie are more appropriate on his birthday, I am hearing rumors of possible events in 2010, the 20th anniversary of his passing. I guess it is unavoidable in this culture that the majority commemorate life on the anniversary of death. That's warped. Anyway, if any events are confirmed I will post the information as soon as it is public information.

October 29: Second thief of SRV memorabilia sentenced by Austin court. Link on News page.

October 7: I have added a couple of autographs for sale.

September 25: ConcertTV is currently airing SRV's concert at Rockpalast as part of their video-on-demand programming.

September 22: Twelve nominations to the Rock Hall of Fame were announced a few minutes ago. SRV is not among them. My comments on Stevie's chances are on the FAQ page.

September 10: http://www.kera.org/artandseek/content/2009/09/10/artseek-qa-lupe-vargas/

August 13: Les Paul, R.I.P.  I saw him perform a couple of times in NYC, the last time in 2007 when he was 92. What a wonderful show. The first time I saw him I found my self sitting next to two of the guys from Metallica. He always took time to sign autographs late into the night even in his nineties. I hope you got a chance to see him -- a legend.

July 23: I am looking for the following persons who took photos of Stevie. If you are or know one of these people, please contact me. Mark Smith (I bought a couple of photos of yours several years ago - Stevie wearing a tie-dyed scarf), B. Michenko, Cherry Rains, Bob Jenkins,  Roger White, Jani Hiltunen, John-Christophe Fluckiger, Donna Gilbert, Mark Caldwell, Ken Voss, Marco Heimann, Michael Byrns, Larry Kerrigan.

July 23: I have written an SRV cover feature story for Guitar and Bass magazine in the UK. The on sale date will be August 14, I believe, but it is the October 2009 issue. The article is about Stevie from 1961-1971, and is largely taken from the biography, but even if you have the book it's another SRV cover story for your collection. UPDATE: I did not write the contents page "teaser" which refers to SRV as rising from being "a skinny kid with a big nose." A cheap and unnecessary shot I have complained about.

July 7: Rare error pressing of CSTW  LP added to the Store.

July 2: Extra copies of some magazines and books added to the Store. There is also ONE copy of each of my first two SRV books available. I haven't had any Anthology books for sale in quite a while, so grab it if you are trying to complete the collection.

July 1: Yet another SRV magazine cover story overseas, this time in Japan. See the News page.

June 23: NEW RELEASE - Couldn't Stand the Weather, 2-disc Legacy Edition with bonus tracks and live concert. See News page.

June 19: In Session CD with Albert King and Stevie is reissued today in remastered format. More info on News page.

June 13: Martha Vaughan passed away today. I was honored to have called her my friend. She was a wonderful soul. Deepest condolences to the Vaughan and Cook families. May she rest in peace. In lieu of flowers, Martha's family has suggested charitable contributions, specifically to pet rescue programs. One of Martha's greatest joys in life was her rescued pets. I will collect contributions in Martha's memory until July 25, 2009, and make a group donation to the Humane Society of Dallas County, a no kill pet shelter, on behalf of the fans of Stevie Ray Vaughan in memory of Stevie and Martha. Click here for more information about the Humane Society. 

June 13: I have added two rare SRV guitars for sale, a genuine Hamiltone and a Charley's Lipstick  Special. See the Store. They are priced for a  quick sale before raising the price to full market value.

June 4: R.I.P Koko Taylor.

May 21: Articles on Stevie guitar picks - see the News page.

May 19: New CDs and magazine with Stevie on the cover in Japan. See the News page.

May 17: The Spring Sale has been launched! See the Store pages.

May 9: R.I.P. Stephen Bruton.

May 8: MusiCares MAP Fund SRV Award for 2009 - See the News page.

May 6: "Lenny" guitar going on tour. See News page.

April 25: A report that Cutter Brandenburg, Stevie's long-time friend and roadie, passed away this morning was a hoax by someone (we know who) who thought it would be funny. The good news is that Cutter has been reminded how many people love him.

April 23: Added to the "Stevie is Everywhere" list of TV and movie soundtrack appearances. 

April 18: In Japan, Family Style, Carnegie Hall and Sky Is Crying are being rereleased in June with bonus tracks. As soon as I find out more I will post it. (Thanks Tooru) UPDATE: The bonus tracks are all previously released on the box set or promo CDs. See News page for more info.

April 11: Two more songs have been added to the video collection from the 1981 Tornado Jam (thanks Xavi). See the Video Collection page. The spring "garage sale" is coming up soon. Advance notice will go to those on the mailing list. If you have bought a book or have previously requested to be on the list, you're on it. Please don't send the form again unless your email address has changed. There are a few very rare SRV items going in the sale. 

April 4: There will be a Stevie Ray Vaughan Forum at the Dallas Guitar Show April 18 from 11:50a.m. until 12:20pm on the Clinician Stage. On display will be Stevie's primary guitar from the late 60's and early 70's, known as "Jimbo" - a hand me down from Jimmie. A rare opportunity to see one of Stevie's guitars up close before it is auctioned later this year and goes into someone's private collection. Auction estimate is over $700,000. 

March 23: The South By Southwest Music Conference and Festival was really fun this past weekend. Tommy Shannon and Stevie's old roommate Mike Steele joined me and moderator Mark Murray for 90 minutes of stories, rare recordings and photographs on Sunday afternoon. Hundreds of fans came through the exhibition of a portion of the SRV Museum Collection that I assembled. Among those visiting the booth were Woodstock founder Michael Lang and MC Wavy  Gravy, Stevie's nephew Tyrone Vaughan, Sir Earl Toon of Kool & the Gang, artist Jim Franklin and quite a few of Stevie's old friends from the Austin area. This was the first time I set up the exhibition in Austin, and a lot of fans came through the booth with their own recollections of seeing Stevie perform or being around him. I also participated in an interview with noted Austin poster artist Nels "Jagmo" Jacobson who designed the poster for Stevie's last Austin show. I also met a VH-1 producer who wants to talk about a full-length documentary on Stevie. We shall see what develops, but of course any okay would have to come from Jimmie Vaughan.

Auction: Please note that later this year a guitar formerly owned by both Jimmie and Stevie will be aucioned with part of the proceeds going to the SRV Scholarship Fund established by Stevie's mother, and to a fund for the preservation of the SRV Memorial in Austin. The 1951 Fender Broadcaster was a primary instrument in Stevie's early development in the late 60s and early 70s, and has the added history of being a hand-me-down from Jimmie. The guitar's authenticity is fully documented. The auction company estimates that it will bring $700,000 or more. I will post more information about the auction when I have it.

March 2: click for Press Release regarding free event in Austin with Tommy Shannon and author Craig Hopkins.

February 27: Rock Band fans are getting SRV next week. See the News page under "Other Products."

February 13: A Stevie sighting in IRAQ! (click)

February 1: Stevie on the cover of a magazine in Italy. See the News page.

January 30: To the person who contacted me before xmas looking for one of the large (48x36) SRV promo posters, I have one for you. I have acquired several Couldn't Stand the Weather  and Texas Flood-style promo posters which will be in the next garage sale along with at least one autograph and a rare tour jacket. If you are not on the mailing list for notice of the next sale, follow the link above.

January 18: Postage rates went up today. My cost for shipping the book in the US went up 55¢, Canada went up $3, and other countries up $2. I have adjusted those shipping rates accordingly, but I am holding the price for USA shipping to the old price for now. Still no sales in Maine, the Dakotas or Wyoming. If you live in a neighboring state, go knock on the door and see if anyone is home out there! Do they have signs up at the border, "No SRV Beyond This Point"?

January 2: The SRV biography is now available on Amazon.com. If you have enjoyed your copy, I would appreciate it if you would write a favorable review on the Amazon website. Just go to this LINK and follow the instructions for posting a review. It's quick and easy. You don't have to have bought through Amazon to post a comment. Thanks! (The price is higher at Amazon to cover their commission and fees.)

2008

December 29: Stevie's home town may erect an SRV statue. See the Miscellaneous News page.

December 8: The postal service is raising shipping rates January 18. Order the book before the cost goes up.

November 12: Mitch Mitchell - R.I.P.  I was just putting the 1987 picture of Stevie and Mitch backstage in a photo album earlier this afternoon. 

October 26: An SRV concert is available on ConcertTV. See the Miscellaneous News page.

October 15: Come by and say hello to me at the Arlington Guitar Show this weekend!

September 28: I have launched my online garage sale. Use the link above to the Store to get to the first of three pages of sale items,  including antique musical equipment and instruments, autographs of music and film stars, rare posters, a movie car and much more. Rare SRV, Beatles, blues and rock memorabilia including autographs of Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Johnson and many others. Concert tickets and programs including rare early '60s blues festivals in England which gave birth to the British blues explosion, and a February 1964 ticket for Eric Clapton and Steve Winwood! I didn't even know I had it until I started digging through closets and boxes. A ton of cool stuff from my 30 years of collecting. Something for everyone!

September 22: Sorry to announce SRV & DT were NOT nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in this their first year of eligibility. Of the nine nominated, only one was in their first year of eligibility. Maybe next year. See the FAQ page for my comments.

September 6: I saw a young guitarist perform in Santa Fe when I went through on vacation. Go see him if you get a chance. His name is Ryan McGarvey.

September 4: The Austin Chronicle has an article about rediscovered SRV studio recordings from the late '70s. See the News page.

September 2: I have reworded my statement on the gear page regarding recent copies of Stevie's "Hamiltone" guitar which are being made by someone other than Jim Hamilton, by clarifying that I was not taking a position on who has the legal right to use the name "Hamiltone." My intention was only to make it clear that two people have used the name Hamiltone, which obviously would be important information to potential buyers. I am not selling either replica; I'm just providing information to reduce confusion.

August 22: The latest authorized SRV product is a miniature Number One guitar. See the bottom of the News page for details. 

August 1: The only thing I have for sale now is the book. However, I am building an online "garage sale" of miscellaneous collectibles before year end. Lots of rare blues posters, records and other memorabilia from my personal collection of rock, blues, movies and pop culture. If you want to be notified when the garage sale opens, click on the link above for the mailing list form, BUT if you ordered the book or previously requested inclusion on the mailing list, you are already on it. Please do NOT send another request because it makes more work for me in cleaning up the mailing list.

July 10: The lineup for the annual SRV Remembrance Ride & Concert will feature some of the best Texas guitar talent. Make your plans now to join us on October 5th. www.srvrideandconcert.org. Awesome raffle items too! I will be giving away a number of items at the concert.

June 27: The new books have arrived from the printer!

June 16: The first review of the new book is in. Click here. Stevie shares the cover of the Starbucks blues CD. 

May 12: Added rare German promo 45 with sleeve for sale. Joe Nick Patoski, co-author of SRV: Caught In the Crossfire, will be signing copies of his new biography of Willie Nelson at Borders Books in Dallas (Preston Rd) on May 20 and Fort Worth (Hulen/I30) on May 21.

May 8: A new page has been added regarding illegal merchandise for sale in internet auctions. See the "Store and Collecting" link.

May 2: Added a rare Fender signed/numbered poster for sale.

April 27: The investment quality of Stevie's guitar picks, and the flood of fake picks, has driven up the price of the real thing. There just doesn't seem to be a ceiling on the market value of SRV picks. In late April 2008, two people bid up the price of a multicolor pick in an internet auction to $1175 (the seller's story of Stevie flicking the pick from the stage included statements which were clearly erroneous, but that didn't seem to bother the highest bidders).

April 23: I have decided to sell the "extra" Charley guitar replica I have. See the  Store for details.

April 20: Had a great time at the 31st Annual Dallas Guitar show. I pulled out some cool things to display and a few things to sell. Thanks to Paul the VH Guy (www.reallygotme.com) for donating photos of Stevie with Muddy Waters to the museum collection!

April 11: SRV MUSEUM EXHIBITION at the DALLAS GUITAR SHOW April 18-20, 2008, at Dallas' Market Hall.  Exhibition information.  Guitar Show Information I will also have a preview copy of the new SRV biography at the show.

April 7: Condolences to the Vaughan and Cook families regarding the passing of Stevie's great-aunt, aged 105.

April 4: Added a less expensive SRV autograph for sale, and a notice that one of the rare "Charley" guitar replicas may come up for sale soon. 

April 2: Hey! We missed an anniversary. This website turned 10 years old and the fan club turned 15 years old in February!

March 31: As you may recall, about a year ago a number of guitars were stolen from Jimmie Vaughan. I have updated the News page with a description of some of the guitars that are still missing. If you hear of anyone trying to sell or claiming to have guitars that belonged to Stevie or Jimmie, contact me or the Austin Police Dept immediately. Click here for info

March 24:    Added a couple of posters for sale. 

March 2: R.I.P. Jeff Healey

March 2: Yet another repackaging of SRV material released 2-26-08. See the News page.

January 30: ALERT!  Over the past several months there have been sales on eBay (and possibly elsewhere) of copies of Stevie's Hamiltone guitar, the one with Stevie's name inlaid in the neck. Jim Hamilton, who made Stevie's guitar, has alerted me that he did NOT make the guitars appearing on eBay, and that they differ from his guitars (and Stevie's) in important respects. If you bought one which does not come with a certificate of authenticity signed by Jim, you bought a copy made by someone else.  

January 14: Click here to make your world a better (and less expensive) place.

January 9: In need to know where these clubs were in 1979-1980: 
Hideaway (somewhere between Harrisonburg, VA and New York City)
Heat Club (somewhere between Bethesda, MD and New York City)
Mine Shaft (somewhere between Baltimore, MD and Norfolk, VA)

I also need a scanned copy or photocopy of the cue sheet for the Pride and Joy radio special. 

2007

December 16: R.I.P. Dan Fogelberg

December 13: URL to the Sessions, Solos & Encores radio special on the News page. (thanks Chris)

December 6: Great news! Doyle Bramhall's new CD, Is It News, has been nominated for a Grammy!  

November 6: I need to find someone who has a copy of this poster:

October 12: I NEED TO FIND MARK SMITH WHO TOOK PHOTOS OF STEVIE IN TOLEDO. Please email me asap.

October 10: Gear page updated with info onthe new "Lenny" guitar replicas. Congratulations to Koichi Morita of Japan for winning the "Number One" replica at the SRV Remembrance Ride & Concert. Koichi attended the 2006 SRV Fan Club tour, and joins last year's raffle winner, Warren Lewkowski, as the second tour attendee to win the top prize in the raffles. Warren won the custom chopper last year. Stevie has fans all over the world, and how nice it is to see those who travelled so far to share in the remembrance of Stevie win such great prizes.

The annual SRV Remembrance Ride & Concert is October 6-7!! This year featuring JOHNNY WINTER. More info at www.srvrideandconcert.org.

September 30: I am releasing the last few copies of The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan book. I had set these aside for another project, but I have decided not to wait because of the continued demand for the book. Though copies have sold for $300 to even $500, I am selling these last copies at $250 to help with expenses for future exhibitions of the SRV Museum. This book will not be reprinted, and it is a completely different book than the new one. The books are in new condition and signed by the author.

September 22: The new book finally has a title: Stevie Ray Vaughan: Day By Day, Night After Night. This reflects several things about Stevie. It is a derivation on one of the lines in "Life Without You" which, of course, Stevie sang about a dear friend who had passed away. It is also the first line from "Crossfire." Day by day can refer to Stevie's recovery, and night after night refers to the many concerts he performed. But I chose the title also because it reflects the structure of this book - a detailed chronicle of Stevie's life, day by day and night after night.  I look forward to finishing the book and sharing with you the many stories told by those closest to Stevie.

September 5: Nissan is advertising their Altima with "Pride and Joy." There is a short instrumental version which does not sound like Stevie playing, and a longer version with Stevie singing. 

August 17: News page updated with information about new CD and DVD being released this year. Added guitar picks for sale on the collectibles page.

August 12: Due to high demand, I am now offering an SRV autograph authentication service. Click HERE for more information.

August 8: Next week I will have detailed info about the upcoming SRV CD release. The DVD info is posted on the News page.

July 29: R.I.P. Uncle John "Unk" Turner, drummer extraordinaire, veteran of Johnny Winter's band, Krackerjack and numerous other bands. 

July 10: There is now a waiting list for The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan book. A few copies may be retrieved in late September which were earmarked for another project. If you want a copy, the price will be $300. Email me to reserve a copy.

June 21: New SRV DVD coming September 4, 2007. Click At long last Sony will combine the promotional music videos with MTV Unplugged. 

June 16: Jimmie Vaughan has filed a theft report in Austin saying some Stevie Ray Vaughan memorabilia and guitars have been stolen from a storage warehouse. There are links to news reports on the News page. 

June 6: I have added "insurance" to the  topics on the Collecting - General Information page.

June 2:  Public television stations began broadcasting a new SRV program on June 9, 2007. It contains performances from previously released videos (Montreux, El Mocambo) and songs from Austin in 1989 which I assume are from Austin City Limits, though it wasn't clear in the press release. Chris Layton provided an interview for the program, as well. It is called Stevie Ray Vaughan: Play Hard & Floor It. 

May 30: There are TWO copies of The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughan left for sale. The last copies are being sold for $250 to raise funds for the year-long museum exhibition and future exhibitions. Last chance to get a new copy before they forever pass into the world of collectibles. Copies have already sold for up to $500, which makes $250 look almost like a bargain!

May 12: The SRV Museum in Dallas, a temporary exhibition, is now closed. Thank you to the hundreds of fans who visited. Future exhibitions will be posted on the Museum page.

April 23 - Added another guest appearance to Stevie's discography on the News & Trivia page. The song was apparently released only in Europe in 1986, but it is not difficult to find on the internet or expensive if you know what to look for. It has been many years since I added a new song to Stevie's discography of commercially available recordings. Stevie's name does not appear on the record, so buy it now if you are a completist, before the record dealers realize Stevie is on it. Thanks to Paul for the tip! 

April 20 - If you have ever wanted (what I consider) the best replica of Stevie's Number One Stratocaster, either to play or display, now is the time to act. CLICK HERE for information about a limited edition of 25 very special replicas now in production. In my opinion, these 25 guitars are far more accurate in appearance than the Custom Shop replicas, and are available at about half the price. Portions of the proceeds of sales go to several charities. One of these guitars is going into the SRV Museum archive, so there are already only 24 available. 

April 20 - Stevie's guitar, "Lenny," is on display this weekend at the guitar show. This is the first time "Lenny" has been exhibited since it was sold in 2004 in the Crossroads auction. I have loaned a couple of items to the guitar show's "Holy Grail" exhibition, also. Clapton's Blackie and Cream 335 also on display. It is an approximately $12 million dollar display of historic guitars, amplifiers and other items.

April 20 - The new issue of Guitarist (UK) has Stevie on the cover. See the News page.

April 11 - HELP - I still need someone in Atlanta and Baltimore area to help with the new book. Go to the Store page, click on New Book, and scroll to the bottom.

March 7 - Once again, updated the forgeries page for those shopping on internet auctions. The latest bunch of really awful forgeries is coming out of Las Vegas (big surprise). 

February 27 - If you have come to this page because of a certain eBay auction description regarding an autograph, see my comment on the forgery page.

February 13 - I see the current issue of Guitar World magazine has an article called "Stevie Ray Vaughan's Lost Amplifier."  I wonder what the editors would think of all the "lost" items which are currently on display in  Dallas. They'll write a story about one amp, but won't do one on an entire museum archive?? Feel free to write the editor and let him know what he is missing! 

February 1 - Vintage Guitar has a cover story on SRV in the April issue. (thanks Nick)

January 24 - There is an SRV podcast available at http://www.chrysler.com/podcast/. It's about 35 minutes of music and interviews, mostly about the shows at Montreux Jazz Fest. Check it out.

January 12 - Added the rare Couldn't Stand the Weather poster for sale - it's a beauty!

January 5 - Please note the changes of dates the museum will be open. Don't forget it is closing at the end of April. There may never be another exhibition this large again. See it now while it's all on display.
