Did I not say...one big hit...? SRV had a lot of hits, Larry Davis didn't.
Dude, I knew you didn't know, you didn't!
Well, like I said, I didn't pay a lot of attention to your list.
That's neat. I had Thanksgiving dinner and swapped songs with the man.

[QUOTE=Avante;6570201] have a ton of Van Zandt.So how come you know so little about Texas music?
Roomful of Blues is also acceptable.
How come you know so little about Mexican music?
Did I not say...of that list?
No, you didn't.
How are you defining "hit"?
OK, then Stevie Ray Vaughn it is.
Was a really big hit album for him. You didn't say it was just the song.
Because I correctly answered your question?
I know a little more than I'm letting on.
Dude, you had no idea that was Larry Davis tune, so cool the bull , ok. Do you really think I wanted a cover over the original? Come on guy.
The question was also really ed up grammatically. Credit to me for interpretting it correctly.
lol Get to Googling
Not our problem you make ty questions.
Stevie Ray Vaughn is a correct answer and there is nothing you can do about it now.
You did not specify. I did not see Larry Davis on your list. I gave a correct answer.
How high on the charts did Larry Davis' version of Texas Flood go?
Ah! Proof you use wikipedia.
It's great watching Avante squirm when he owns himself.
This is why I post in his threads.
googled it!
I came up with my correct answer without looking at wikipedia. I guess that's the difference.
Nope!
Texas Flood" is a slow-tempo twelve-bar blues notated in 12/8 time in the key of A♭. It was written by Larry Davis in California in 1955 and is credited to Davis and Duke Records arranger/trumpeter Joe Scott.[2] Nominally about a flood in Texas, Davis used it as a metaphor for his relationship problems:Well I'm leavin' you baby, Lord I'm goin' back home to stay (2×)Well where there's no floods or tornadoes, baby the sun shines every dayAlthough Davis later became a guitar player, for "Texas Flood" Fenton Robinson provided the distinctive guitar parts, with Davis on vocals and bass, James Booker on piano, David Dean on tenor saxophone, and an unknown drummer. The song was Davis' first single as a leader and became a regional hit.
Yep.
Texas Flood is the debut album of American blues rock band Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble, released on June 13, 1983 by Epic Records.
I have the original and have had it for years.
Just went to WikIpedia to show you proof of who wrore it and recorded it. The tune belongs to Larry Davis not SRV.
So, he probably shouldn't have been on your list of Texas artists.
Pretty sure SRV recorded his verion in Texas.
