Mesh Match For "Live At The Regal" CD by B.B. King:


B.B. King Artist Snapshot:

The great Memphis guitarist and singer B.B. King has been the most high-profile figure in blues since the 1960s, ever since his LIVE AT THE REGAL album established him as a superstar. King has collaborated successfully with everyone from Bobby Bland to U2, but he made his name as a soulful, enthusiastic bandleader. His beloved Gibson ES-345 guitar, "Lucille," is the source of King's trademark sound--percussive attack, dramatic string-bending, and spare lead lines with a vocal-like quality.

Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.128) - Ranked #141 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "[I]t remains his definitive live set. His guitar sound was precise and powerful, driving emotional versions of some of his most influential songs."

Vibe (12/99, p.158) - Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century

Recorded live at The Regal Theatre, Chicago, Illinois on November 21, 1964. Includes liner notes by Rick Ward & Leonard Feather.

No matter how good the studio sessions were, B.B. King was at his best on stage in front of an appreciative, if not ecstatic crowd. This set, recorded at Chicago's premier black theater on Novermber 21, 1964, delivered just that. Despite the less than perfect recording conditions, at a time when technology had yet to catch up with the demands placed upon it, the King of the Blues delivers a definitive performance on a programm that includes his recent single "Help The Poor." Also included in this set is a clutch of songs that were responsible for much of his success, "Everyday I Have The Blues," "Sweet Little Angel," "It's My Own Fault," "You Upset Me Baby" and "Woke Up This Morning" among them. The band, including tenorman Johnny Board and organist Duke Jethro, is lean but tight, providing King with a springboard from which to leap into flights of immaculate guitar playing and singing.
