Product Details

Albert King spent the early '70s crossing freely between blues royalty and the rock festival circuit, sharing stages with Hendrix-generation crowds who understood exactly what they were hearing. That context matters here: the Forum was a 17,000-seat arena, and King filled it with the same stinging left-handed attack on his Flying V that had defined Stax recordings like "Born Under a Bad Sign," proving the blues could hold any room it wanted.


Recorded at the Fabulous Forum in 1972, features Albert King - gtr/voc, Donald Kinsey - gtr, Rick Watson - tenor sax, Norville Hodges - trumpet, Wilbur Thompson - trumpet, James Washington - org, Bill Rennie - bass, Sam King - drums. Tracks include "Killing Floor" and "Stormy Monday"
