B. B. King

INCLUDES 10 BONUS TRACKS

This quintessential collector's edition includes one of B.B.'s lesser known gemas from his most inspired years, the splendid and eponymous album, B.B. King (aka Going Home), which was originally released by Crown Recordsin the early 1960s. (It was retitled The Soul of B.B. King on later reissues fro both the United and Custom labels). This blues masterpiece had been remastered on this special release, which also includes 10 bonus tracks from the same period. All of these fabolous songs give a solid and revealing portrait of B.B. King's versatility as well as his rightfull place in the blues pantheon.
