3.0 out of 5 stars ***1/2, August 24, 2004
There is a lot of good to be said about a concise single-disc compilation which draws from B.B. King's entire career. But this 12-track disc is rather skimpy, and while selections like "3 O'Clock Blues", "How Blue Can You Get" and the cross-over hit "The Thrill Is Gone" are excellent, the inclusion of the mediocre Robert Cray/B.B. King-duet "Playing With My Friends" and a couple of good but not great covers is a mistake.
Casual listeners will get a pretty good idea of what B.B. King is about from this collection, but the many available compilations focusing on specific eras of his work give a much better idea of his scope and depth.

3.0 out of 5 stars average, June 2, 2005
By Petri "PT" (Slovakia, Middle Europe) - See all my reviews
start point 0 stars
time covered (1949 -1998) +2 points
tracks selection (Cray duet/ no Sweet little angel, NO SWEET SIXTEEN!!!) 0 points
Number of key songs 6/12 +1 point
length (just one disc, not near 80 minutes)0 points
total 3 points = 3 stars on scale.
recomendation: buy it only if you are curious whether you'll like B. B's music, but not as a definitive hits collection.
