Blues legend B.B. King is well represented by ORIGINAL GREATEST HITS, which essentially elaborates on 2002's CLASSIC MASTERS. While both compilations feature many of the guitarist/vocalist's successful early singles (the woeful "3 O'Clock Blues," the devoted "Please Love Me," the rollicking "Every Day I Have the Blues," etc.), the two-disc ORIGINAL GREATEST HITS offers up more than three times as many tracks as the previous CD, making it more enticing for those seeking to delve further into King's impressive catalog of Memphis electric blues.
