Deluxe Edition 180gram Triple VInyl!

1983 Live Performance in Its Entirety for the First Time!

The Only Known Recording of King & SRV Playing Together!

Released to celebrate Albert King's centennial, his 1999 live album In Session with Stevie Ray Vaughan is now available in its entirety for the first time!

Recorded live for television at CHCH-TV studios in Ontario, Canada in 1983, this is the only known recording of Vaughan and King playing together. Also featured are Tony Llorens (piano/organ), Gus Thornton (bass), and Michael Llorens (drums).

This deluxe edition has been newly mastered by Joe Tarantino. 3-LP set on 180g vinyl in gatefold board jacket.

Vaughan was clearly influenced by King — there are King licks all over his first two recorded efforts, and it was an influence that stayed with him to the end — and he was unafraid to go toe-to-toe with his idol. King must have been impressed, since In Session never devolves into a mere cutting contest. Instead, each musician spurs the other to greater heights. For aficionados of either guitarist, that means the album isn't just worth a listen — it means that it's a record that sounds as exciting on each subsequent listen as it does the first time through.
-Stephen Thomas Erlewine, 4.5/5
...a blues jam for the ages.
