Hey Mike!

Thanks for sharing this; an excellent find... I hadn't heard this one before either! I took a stab at trying to enhance the audio quality a bit. Take a listen and hopefully you'll think so too! I played with the left, right and center channels of the audio, faded out the end and used mild noise reduction.

Here it is:

Enjoy!

I actually got that version sometime on cassette tape from this guy named David Kyle in Indiana...in like '91 or '92....I had always thought it was awesome than....I did like it better than the Mirror version. I hadn't realized that it was from 86. Its a great version....Thanks for sharing....

Good God. This is embarrassing swill.

All it shows is that she added nonsense well well lyrics in the blank spots, and that the only remotely interesting part of the song was the chord at the beginning of the bridge. A bridge she started but never even bothered to finish.

At best, this was a below average amateur blues song. At worst, it was Stevie lacking material on a record and a good blues group down the hall who was working on someone else's dime. Shameful and humiliating. Who the hell knows the guys who played on this version?

Doesn't matter. This has the Klonopin trademark all over it.

Trash bin.

As a PS I will add that the make up artist on the video did a commendable job on the suggestion of skinny Stevie cheekbones.

The song itself--jeez, it's so crappy. Stevie & Mike did some excellent stuff over the years, like "Imperial Hotel," but "Whole Lotta Trouble" practically defines plodding & leaden. They must have both been high.

I have to agree. This song blows - all versions. Thanks for posting it, but I don't really hear anything thrilling and/or new.

Bumped for relevancy!
