Soundcheck from the rehearsals for the Serious Moonlight tour. Only known recording with Stevie Ray Vaughan before he left.
The story goes that after Bowie saw Stevie perform at the Montreuz Jazz Festival in 1982 he asked him to join his band and tour in support of his new album “Serious Moonlight” after a few rehearsals Stevie decided to skip joining Bowies band so this is all we get to hear. It would have been amazing.
Supposedly these were recorded by Bowies manager using a mono Nagra machine. “heyricky” then obtained the tapes (we don’t know how) and remixed
into “mock” stereo.
I’ve included a snippet of what you use to hear on bootlegs like “Hawk and Dove”, “Moonlight Rehearsals” and “The Complete Dallas Rehearsals”
and what “heyricky” did to them.

There are many versions of these tapes but these are the best anybody has heard. Before “heyricky” died of a massive overdose in 2005
he gave these and the Beatles “River Rhine Tapes” to me to hold onto so he wouldn’t sell them for a “fix” and instructed me to only torrent them
after he had been dead for a year. Last year I torrented his “River Rhine Tapes” on the anniversary of his death and now on the 2nd anniversary
of his death I present…….”David Bowie and Stevie Ray Vaughan The Serious Rehearsal 1983″
