B.B. King recorded this Album in front of Vicious killers, criminals, and other baddies, and he managed to soothe them all with his touching music. If you don't think that's in the slightest way cool, get out of my face.
Anyways, B.B. truly demonstrated his power at guitar on this Album, which demonstrates that drummers have it tough when it comes to softer music like Blues and Jazz. B.B.'s singing ability really lets loose his soul, belting out his fresh lyrics. Sadly, after awhile, Blues gets a little bit repetitive, especially in this album. The guitar and singing all sounds the same after each song, but its the rhythm of it all that really keeps the beat going. B.B. was one cool cat.
