SRV played on Lets Dance (1981), but not the tour due to a contract dispute just before the first tour date. Instead of playing on the Lets Dance tour, SRV went to the studio and recorded Texas Flood.

Looks like Undertaker4 has the answer Sedond. My data was from a web site called "into the 80's", where I was looking for Stevie Ray Vaughn info.

Either the data for SRV was published at the site, and then the contract dispute happened (and never updated), or they did not care that it was incorrect. I never attended the Glass Spider tour, as I am not a Bowie fan, so I had no personal experience. I admit I would have been tempted to go, if only due to the presence of SRV.

Great Thread! I would like to throw one out there for ya. Before Jimi Hendrix rose to Rock Icon status he played with a well known R&B band of the times in Puerto Rico. Can anyone guess what R&B band that was?

Liguy, I know he played in Little Richard's band, and I think he played with Ike and Tina, but I don't know who he went to Puerto Rico with.
