Soul to Soul is the third studio album by Americanblues rock band Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble released on September 30, 1985 by Epic Records. Recording sessions took place between March and May 1985 at the Dallas Sound Lab in Dallas, Texas. Vaughan wrote four of Soul to Soul's ten tracks; two songs were released as singles. The album went to #34 on the Billboard 200 chart[4] and the music video for 'Change It' received regular rotation on MTV. In 1999, a reissue of the album was released, which includes an audio interview segment and two studio outtakes.
Soul to Soul received mixed reviews, with acclaim for Vaughan's style and playing, and criticism for a lack of inspiration and Vaughan's 'hit or miss songwriting.'
In 2014, Analogue Productions Remaster used the original master tape for the first time since the first CD edition. The lyrics before the guitar solo on 'Life Without You' have been restored audibly, whereas on other CD editions since 1999 they had been edited out.
