The Fabulous Thunderbirds - What's The Word - 1980 - Chrysalis Records - Blues Rock - Vinyl LP Record Album - Used

This 1980 release of What's The Word captures the raw energy of the Texas barroom scene as the second studio album from the legendary Austin-based band, The Fabulous Thunderbirds. Released under Chrysalis Records, this vinyl LP features the classic lineup of Jimmie Vaughan on guitar and Kim Wilson on vocals and harmonica, delivering a high-octane blend of Texas blues and Gulf Coast rhythm and blues. The record showcases the band’s mastery of "no-frills, gut-bucket" sounds through standout tracks like "Runnin' Shoes," "The Crawl," and the driving "Sugar Coated Love." Produced by Denny Bruce and recorded at Sumet-Bernet Sound Studios in Dallas, the album is widely regarded by collectors as a foundational piece of the 1980s blues revival. It is a must-have for fans of authentic, organic musicianship and serves as a perfect showcase for Vaughan's signature "less-is-more" guitar style and Wilson’s expressive, greasy harmonica leads.
