{"product_id":"b-b-king-king-of-the-blues-spain-import","title":"B.B. King - King of the Blues [Spain Import]","description":"\u003cp\u003eKing of the Blues lives up to its title, a 1960 set of B.B. King's stinging guitar and big-hearted vocals, presented here as a remastered 180 gram Spanish import.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy the end of the 1950s, King was a star of the R\u0026amp;B circuit, playing an astonishing number of nights a year and refining the singing, vibrato-rich guitar style that would go on to shape generations of blues and rock players. This album captures him at full strength, backed by a punchy band that gives the songs a swinging, uptown polish without ever softening their edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSongs like (I've) Got a Right to Love My Baby, Long Nights (The Feeling They Call the Blues) and I'm King show off everything that made him special: the conversational interplay between voice and guitar, the economy of every phrase and the way a single bent note could say more than a whole verse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis guitar, the famous Lucille, never shows off for its own sake. Each lick lands like a sentence in an ongoing conversation with the listener, and his voice moves from a wounded plea to a joyful shout in a heartbeat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor blues lovers building a collection, this is an essential slice of early B.B. King, the sound of a master who had already found his voice and kept sharpening it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67757781647650,"sku":"8436544170992","price":11.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/B.B._King-King_of_the_Blues_Spain_Import.jpg?v=1794291620","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/b-b-king-king-of-the-blues-spain-import","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
