Customer Review: 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,... more info
Customer Review: This is not a serious BLUES ALBUM. It is fun to listen to......but I exspected a much more serious SONG SELECTION for these 2 great singers. The "TITLE SONG", is some-what of a joke song. The song "DAY's OF OLD", just doesn't sound like blues. And "I WANNA BE", sounds almost like a rock ANTHEM. The... more info
Customer Review: I lived the 90's, this is the BEST and FEW ( IF any ), albums made that a FAMILY ( kids and adults ) could listen to. This is the best album of the 90's. BB KING is 10 times better now then in the 50's. And the work he is putting out is 10 times better then any-band on earth. WHY, don't no. The man... more info
Customer Review: My husband requested this CD for Christmas as he is a huge BB King fan. He loves it! Any BB King afficianado will be very pleased with this CD.
Customer Review: So they finally went back and remastered the muddy audio on this classic album! The new sound is fantastic -- clear as a bell. Sadly, while the audio was being cleaned up, no one bothered to clean up the very, very sloppy edits (especially in the second half), such as when the second intro of B.B.... more info
Customer Review: Great CD. I bought it for my husband, he's always been a Fats fan and he loves it. All the artists did a wonderful job. Worth every penney.
Customer Review: BB King had already recorded over 300 songs when this album was recorded. Prime arrangements of some standards and a few lesser known tunes. If you've never seen him live, this is close to it.
Customer Review: I'm sure this was a fun cd for BB King (and friends)to make. If you have any "soul" you can't sit still to the Heavy D jam. I LOVE EVERY JAM! The Van Morrison cut is the BOMB, Dr. John, ALL of them bring something to the table. U can also "hear" the respect they all have for each other. I'm sure... more info
Customer Review: I came to this album late, so I was hesitant at first. King loves playing with other people, but the results have always been a markedly mixed bag. Fans mostly want hardcore blues and his guests haven't always been the type of artist to drive that theme home. This album, by contrast, captures... more info
