The first two are from the late, Doyle Bramhall Sr., a well known drummer and close personal friend of Stevie Ray Vaughan. The Bramhall's & Vaughan's actually shared a house for a time. Doyle wrote "Life By The Drop" for Stevie, who also recorded a cover of it but it wasn't discovered until after SRV's death.
When SRV died I kept my "ear to the rail" to see what would become of Chris Layton (Drums) & Tommy Shannon (Bass) a.k.a. "Double Trouble," SRV's "bottom end."
Their first effort was when they teamed up with Charlie Sexton & Doyle's son, Doyle Bramhall II (commonly said as two) to form Arc Angels. Doyle two is the leftie who, to me, bears a striking resemblance to magician, Penn Gillette. Doyle two has a unique sound due to his guitars being strung upside down. When he was young (15) SRV would have him get up on stage with him and sit in, adding a little pressure by introducing him as the "Best guitar player around."
