Tribute shows to Stevie Ray Vaughan:
City Limits, Austin, Texas (United States) 11-May-1995 

Introduction

Vaughan, King, Clapton, Guy and Co. are all old friends, and their gathering was, in fact, a spectacular act of friendship. On May 11, 1995, they gathered in Austin, Texas, to pay tribute to their fallen comrade, Stevie Ray Vaughan, who died five years prior after participating in a similar summit meeting in Alpine Valley, Wisconsin. The concert, organized by Stevie's brother, Jimmie, included everyone who shared the stage with Stevie Ray on August 26, 1990, the guitarist's final night on earth.

This was a private, by invitation show only. It was recorded by Sony for an album and a video.
