Description: EDITORIAL REVIEWS
This essential LP includes B.B. Kings sensational album, My Kind of Blues, which was originally issued by the Crown label in August 1960. King himself called it his favorite album and its easy to see why. Recorded around March 1960 using only the accompaniment of Lloyd Glenn (piano), probably Ralph Hamilton (bass) and Jessie Sailes (drums), Kings stinging guitar and powerful voice come across beautifully. Theres a relaxed, almost after-hours feel to the proceedings emphasized by Glenns delicate piano work. Many of the songs are blues standards that have been covered by others, but in B.B.s hands, they sound like true blues songs and it shows in his graceful and elegant performances. This may be the purest expression of Kings music, as exemplified on Catfish Blues, which is so dynamic its perhaps the definitive version of this standard. Theres a fine balance between the classic B.B. cuts of You Done Lost Your Good Thing Now and My Own Fault, Baby, which exemplify a part of Kings blues message that a relationship is a mutual responsibility. Mr. Pawnbroker describes marital blues from a pawnbrokers perspective. The best thing about all of the songs is that they feature Kings voice and guitar in their most essential form; upfront, sharp and strong, in a spare, blues setting. In addition to the original masterpiece, this collectors edition includes 2 bonus tracks from the same period: Things Are Not the Same and Get Out of Here.
