1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT!!! BUY THIS!!!, May 3, 2008

This review is from: Classics (Audio CD)

I love B.B. King. He is a guitar god, and is one of the best bluesmen I have ever heard. He and "Lucille" both are unbeatble together.

And I was disgusted when I borrowed this from my library. I thought it would include all of his best loved classics on one CD, and I really wanted to have 'Sweet Sixteen' on CD again.

And I still call myself stupid for borrowing this. The sound quality is just terrible! It sounds like it was recorded from a mini tape recorder in some guy's pants pockets or in a bathroom stall at a concert venue.

My advice: Just avoid this cruddy release and buy B.B.'s installment in the '20th Century Masters' series or 'Great Moments With B.B. King,' released on MCA in 1981.

But do not buy this. A TERRIBLE RELEASE. A DISGRACE TO B.B. KING!!!

Not recommended.
