''Couldn't Stand the Weather'' is the second studio album by American blues rock band Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble. It was released on May 15, 1984, by Epic Records as the follow-up to the band's critically and commercially successful 1983 album, ''Texas Flood''. Recording sessions took place in January 1984 at the Power Station in New York City. Stevie Ray Vaughan wrote half the tracks on ''Couldn't Stand the Weather''. The album went to No. 31 on the ''Billboard'' 200 chart and the music video for "Couldn't Stand the Weather" received regular rotation on MTV. In 1999, a reissue of the album was released which contains an audio interview segment and studio outtakes. In 2010, the album was reissued again as the ''Legacy Edition'' containing two CDs with a previously unreleased studio outtake and an August 17, 1984 concert at The Spectrum in Montreal, Canada. ==Recording and production== During January 1984, Vaughan and Double Trouble spent 19 days at the Power Station in New York City. John Hammond was executive producer and supervised the sessions. The first track recorded was the old blues standard, "Tin Pan Alley", which was done in one take. Hammond said into the talkback microphone, "That's the best you'll ever get that song. That sounded wonderful."〔 Vaughan's brother, Jimmie Vaughan, played rhythm guitar on "Couldn't Stand the Weather" and "The Things (That) I Used to Do". For "Stang's Swang", drummer Fran Christina and saxophonist Stan Harrison recorded parts for the track. ''Couldn't Stand the Weather'' was produced by the band along with Richard Mullen and Jim Capfer. The album was engineered by Mullen and Rob Eaton.〔 Graphic artist Holland MacDonald designed the album cover art with assistance from Shostal Associates for the tornado image. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Couldn't Stand the Weather」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
