Stevie Ray Vaughan seemed poised for a new, limitless chapter of his life and career just a few years after his severe addiction to cocaine and alcohol almost killed him. His tempestuous marriage was over, and he was newly in love with a supportive girlfriend. His first collaborative album with big brother and first musical hero Jimmie Vaughan was complete and on the verge of being released. His last album with Double Trouble, In Step, had been his most successful, both critically and commercially. Instead, it all came to a screeching halt when Vaughan was killed in a helicopter crash on August 27, 1990 after that evening's dynamic performance with Eric Clapton, at the tender age of 35. In the three decades since his untimely passing, his legend and acclaim have grown exponentially. In spite of this, there has never been a full accounting of his story. Until now with TEXAS FLOOD.
