Product Details
King's left-handed, upside-down Flying V attack redefined what a blues guitar could sound like, influencing a generation that stretched well beyond the blues world. Catching him in the early '70s, when his Stax years were fresh and his live show was at peak intensity, is exactly the kind of document serious collectors dig for.
That huge vibrato and even bigger voice made King a hero to SRV and countless other blues (and rock) guitarists. Here's a full disc of 'unreleased' performances from a 1970 San Francisco concert and a show in St. Charles, Illinois: Blues Power; Crosscut Saw; Angel of Mercy; Oh Pretty Woman; Stormy Monday; Born Under a Bad Sign, and more! Rock Beat.
