Description

"Influential bluesman King played a left-handed Gibson Flying Arrow in a thick-toned, swooping and stinging style that nicely complemented his unvarnished, powerful vocals," writes Sing Out. "King signatures … [include] the grinding Memphis groove of 'Blues at Sunrise.'" Six more tracks from the 1973 Montreux Jazz Festival show what a mind-blowing experience it was to hear King play live. They include "Don't Burn Down the Bridge," "I Believe to My Soul," "I'll Play the Blues for You," "For the Love of a Woman," and "Roadhouse Blues." "Although Albert was perhaps the first bluesman teamed with a symphony orchestra, in St. Louis in 1969, and played at the historic WattStax concert in 1972, he will probably be best remembered as the 'Flower Power Blues Guitarist,' thanks to his success in the late '60s and the rapport he established with that audience. But he was simultaneously one of the few bluesmen scoring hits on contemporary black radio."—Guitar Player
