"This package includes that gig on DVD, along with a new 75-minute documentary and a CD of the freshly performed Trouble Is. It highlights a milestone that remains one of the most popular items in Shepherd's extensive catalog and the one that made him a young star. There was far more thought and effort dedicated to this venture than most anniversary issues and that is evident in the final product".

"Every bit of Trouble Is...25 will make your ears happy. Hearing Shepherd come at the songs that made his bones and brought him to the world a second time is extraordinary. You can feel his mileage in every note and the confidence it gives him. Highly recommended".

"Kenny Wayne Shepherd doesn't settle for a 25th anniversary reissue of his second album Trouble Is..., the best-selling towering inferno of 1990s blues-rock made when he was 18. Instead, the 45-year-old replicates his original thunder-and-lightning guitar work, even using the same Stratocaster and amps he used before ... The core of Shepherd's musical nature is as strong as ever, thanks to his admiration for Stevie Ray Vaughan, and, like his mentor, he's only done his job when leaving the listener breathless with awe over his virtuosic technique".
