I want BDS to get a taste of the #1....

I'm getting sick of all the SRV greatest hits cds coming out year after year, it ruins the billboard list. Jeff Healey gets a pass this year.

True on BDS. 

Stevie's Real Deal Album was his first greatest hits tho...that's never going away.  That being said, that is a terrible compilation.  I wish that wasn't the go to comp. for new SRV fans.

Interesting story on The Real Deal Greatest Hits volume 1, it was released like last year AFTER The Real Deal Vol. 2 was released in 1999! The original greatest hits album had 11 tracks and was released in 1995, and the big deal with that was that it had the rare record of The Beatles' Taxman on it. This new one goes more with the look of Vol. 2. I don't understand what they're doing. Sadly, I haven't even gotten his Solos, Sessions, & Encores yet. There's only like six songs on it that I don't have on other releases. Get with the program Legacy! Release another kickass Stevie live show!
