Impressed by the show, legendary producer Jerry Wexler recommended the band play the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland. Booked to play at Montreux International Festival XVI on July 17, 1982, the band's appearance marked the first time that an unsigned act would appear at the prestigious event. Booked on an acoustic night, Double Trouble's performance was met by boos. Vaughan's high volume electric blues was not popular with the European crowd, who preferred a quieter, folk blues style. However, the first Montreux trip was not a bust. In a last-ditch effort to save the trip, the band's manager, Chelsey Millikin, booked the band to play the casino's after hours bar for two nights running. On the first night, Vaughan was approached by David Bowie, who had seen the Montreux performance, and was interested in having Vaughan play on one of his albums. This would lead to Vaughan's guitar work on Bowie's album, Let's Dance. On the second night, Millikin introduced Vaughan to Jackson Browne, who was impressed by the band's sound. Browne and his band joined Double Trouble on stage, where they jammed until seven the next morning. Browne was so moved by Double Trouble's music that he offered them use of his private recording studio, free of charge. Vaughan and Double Trouble would take Browne up on his offer, and the ensuing recordings would become Texas Flood, which would bring the band into the national spotlight. Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble returned to the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1985 as headliners and were well received by the audience. DVD Release A DVD of the Montreux performances was released on September 14, 2004. The DVD version includes the same set-lists as the album, with two extra Johnny Copeland featured songs ('Cold Shot' and 'Look at Little Sister') on the 1985 disc but also includes a documentary of the Montreux performances entitled Success in Disguise. -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- Lyrics: Went down to Tin Pan Alley See what was going on Things was too hot down there Couldn't stay very long Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been All the people down there Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin I heard a woman scream Yeah and I peeped through the door Some cat was workin' on Annie with a Lord with a two-by-four Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been All the people down there Livin' for their whisky, wine, and gin I heard a pistol shoot Yeah and it was a .44 Somebody killed a crap shooter cause he didn't Shake, rattle, and roll Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been All the people down there Killin' for their whisky, wine, and gin I saw a cop standing With his hand on his gun He said "this is a raid, boy Nobody run" Hey hey hey hey, Alley's the roughest place I've ever been Yeah they took me away from Alley Lord they took me right back to the pen extra: the song is also called this: Tin Pan Alley (aka Roughest Place In Town) (with Johnny Copeland) but is too long for the title...
