B. B. King

This special release includes 25 studio tracks, consisting of a selection of the sensational but underrated recordings B.B. King made for the Bihari brothers’ Kent label between 1958 and 1962. This set contains a number of B.B.’s lesser-known songs which are just as enjoyable as the classics of that period. All of these fabulous songs have been remastered and packaged together in this quintessential collector’s edition, which gives ample proof of B.B. King’s versatility as well as his rightful place in the blues pantheon.
