I'll go first, basing a list on Storyville's "Good Day for the Blues" written by the incomparable David Grissom: 1. Storyville "Good Day for the Blues" 2. Double Trouble "Cry Sky" 3. The Malford Milligan Band "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" 4. Susan Tedeschi "Tired of my Tears" 5. Johnny Lang "Breakin' Me" 6. Albert King with Stevie Ray Vaughn "Pep Talk" 7. Stevie Ray Vaughn & Double Trouble "Love Struck Baby" 8. Storyville "Talk to Me" 9. The Fabulous Thunderbirds "Powerful Stuff" 10. Bobby 'Blue' Bland "Turn On Your Love Light" 11. Double Trouble "Groundhog Day" 12. Buddy Guy "The First Time I Met the Blues" 13. The Malford Milligan Band "Don't Cry for Me" 14. Storyville "Bitter Rain" 15. Stevie Ray Vaughn & Double Trouble "Couldn't Stand the Weather" 16. B.B. King & Eric Clapton "Riding With the King" 17. Albert King with Stevie Ray Vaughn "Ask Me No Questions" 18. Omar Kent Dykes & Jimmie Vaughn "Jimmy Reed Highway" 19. The Fabulous Thunderbirds "Tuff Enuff" 20. Blues Brothers "Hey Bartender" 21. John Lee Hooker "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" 22. Storyville "Who's Left Standing" 23. Stevie Ray Vaughn & Double Trouble "Texas Flood" 24. Chris Thomas King "Hard Time Killing Floor Blues" 25. Double Trouble "In the Garden" So, for those who don't know, the following tracks all have band members either with the last name Vaughn or who played with one of the Vaughn brothers: 1 2 3 6 7 8 9 11 13 14 15 17 18 19 22 23 25
