BB is always at his Best with his friends,
By A Customer
This review is from: Blues Summit (Audio CD)
B.B. King gets no better than when he performs with the people he genuinely loves. This CD was my adult re-education in the Blues and I could not have done better. Whether it's Saturday morning baking or Sunday morning watering of the plants, I can't get it done without being on the Summit with B. B. and his great friends, Koko Taylor, Etta James and John Lee Hooker. This is the music that you makes you so deeply happy that you love music. It makes me love my friends as well. At the age of 4, my Granddaughter has made B. B. one of her friends and I will never worry that along with all the other genres she will always include Blues having fallen in love with B. B. and his Friends. This CD provides the juice for my personal cabaret.

Best blues album of the 90's,
By
This review is from: Blues Summit (Audio CD)
Its hard to find an album in these days that you could put in the same shelf as your classic Muddy, Wolf, Johnson, Sonny Boy albums. But this surely can. The album has a quelity rarely displayed on blues album today, its fresh, and a lot of these tracks are first or second takes, no shameful overdubs. Every tracks is a first class performance, something magic definitely happended in these sessions. Albert Collins just plays one of his bests recorded solos of his life. Buddy Guy sings with that passionate almost out of control energy that he displays at his best. Duets albums have become a common thing in blues today, this is the best. All of these guys are BLUES artists, no rocknrollers, pops, countrys or crooners to cash on a certain market.Great for an introduction to the blues as well.

Call It Stormy Monday alone is worth the price,
By
This review is from: Blues Summit (Audio CD)
B.B. King is the greatest living bluesman and Albert Collins was one of the best blues guitarists in the world. Put the two together and you have pure magic. Blues Summit is a great album, but the absolute highlight is Stormy Monday with B.B. and Albert Collins. These two blues masters engage in an awesome 9-minute guitar shootout, which nothing else on the album manages to live up to. Still there's some great duets with John Lee Hooker, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy and Lowell Fulson. Great album, blues lovers will really love it.
