Customer Reviews

The legend performs to his true status
What a wonderful late career tour d'force. So good to hear the King on songs he hasn't recorded before, supported by world beating production from T Bone Burnett and magnificent players like Dr John and Jim Kelter. Nathan East's acoustic bass is a special stand out.
This record is just a gem, the warmth of tone, understated playing and love of blues oozes out of every track.
If you love the blues, you'll loves this. Buy it, play it, recommend it.

King Does Us One Kind Favor By Recording This Album
83 years old! 83 years old for God's sake, and he's still not only putting out albums, but damn good albums!! BB King's new album is a wonderful experience. He plays covers of classic blues tunes in his own special way, and sounds as fresh as he ever did. I had read that in the studio the aim was to sound like his older 50s recordings, and this was achieved for sure. I still just get constantly amazed when I think of King's age and track record. You think 50 Cent or the friggin' Jonas Brothers are gonna be recording albums at 83?
Not much else I can say about BB King here except that the album is great(as to be expected anyway), and it's more than worth the purchase. If King still sounds this invigorating I can only hope he's got at least two more albums left in him!

As Good as Ever
Amazing he can still sing this way at his age.
Best stuff in years.
