Live - World of B.B. King
Comment:
Even more than on his albums, B.B. gets his mojo workin’ to maximum overdrive on the stage — in fact, a couple of his biggest-ever albums [i]are[/i] live sets. But don’t feel too bad if you’ve missed B.B. in person, because we’ve put together a supreme setlist for his career-spanning ultimate fantasy concert. King practically rockets off the stage as his band digs razor-sharp spurs into [i]Live at the Regal[/i]’s “Every Day I Have the Blues,” a three-minute tornado of turbo-powered jumpin’ jive. On 1971’s [i]Live in Cook County Jail[/i] B.B. wails — and rails — through “The Thrill Is Gone,” its tempo stuttering in a chain-gang shuffle and tears dripping like night sweat from his soul-weary horn section. And when B.B. revisits the lockdown two decades later, on [i]Live at San Quentin[/i], he picks a positively surreal opener: “Let the Good Times Roll.” Choking off fuzz-laden guitar leads like a hangman wielding a noose, B.B. barks out a call-and-response on the chorus, almost [i]taunting[/i] the inmates, and they give back as good as they get. But don’t stop there — not when you have front row seats to four decades of B.B. King’s all-time greatest live shows at your fingertips.
