Music reviews of The Very Best of Albert King
Music Review: The cover says it all.
Rating: 5 Stars
Whilst trying to locate some info on the unique Gibson Flying "V" i was stunned (but not entirely surprised)to learn that the "King" of the "Flying V" is reputed to be Michael Schenker!!
Who the hell is Michael Schenker in comparison to this most influential 6 ' 4" giant of guitar? Has Schenker influenced more people than Albert King?
Nobody looks as good with a Flying V as Albert nor is noted worldwide for the distinctive tone connected to the guitar.
On this compilation we have possibly some of the finest tracks culled over Alberts career.(the best parts of his career).
"Personal Manager" contains one of the wildest solos ever done on a slow blues. It creeps up you and towards the end Albert runs out of frets and yells in excitement. He must've been in a good mood when he cut this song.
If any are looking for a song that sums up Albert then it's this one although every track on this CD is perfect.
Albert King's talent will live on as the years go by and in theface of every other genre of music.
Needless to say, if you purchase this CD you will have it ALL... i.e Great music & a dynamic cover photo.
