In the summer of 1998, Sony repackaged and re-released Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's first three albums -- Texas Flood, Couldn't Stand the Weather, and Soul to Soul -- as a slipcased box set. It was re-released again in 2005, and it's not a bad way to acquire the albums if you don't already own them. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine In the summer of 1998, Sony repackaged and re-released Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's first three albums -- Texas Flood, Couldn't Stand the Weather, and Soul to Soul -- as a slipcased box set -- it was re-released again in 2005.

[This is not true of the expanded version of this same set, which offers quite a few rarities. There are five bonus tracks on Texas Flood: an unreleased version of "Tin Pan Alley," an interview, and live versions of "Testify," "Mary Had a Little Lamb," and "Wham!" There are also five bonus tracks on Couldn't Stand the Weather: unreleased versions of "Hide Away," "Look at Little Sister," "Give Me Back My Wig," and "Come On, Pt. 3," and another interview. Finally, there are three bonus tracks on Soul to Soul: another interview, "Slip Slidin' Slim," and a powerhouse Hendrix medley.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine In the summer of 1998, Sony repackaged and re-released Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble's first three albums -- Texas Flood, Couldn't Stand the Weather, and Soul to Soul -- as a slipcased box set--it was re-released again in 2005.
