Music reviews of Live at the Regal
Music Review: A special note for budding blues guitar players.
Rating: 5 Stars
I agree with everything in the other positive reviews about what a great album this is, but would like to add something for anyone wanting to learn blues guitar.
This CD is a goldmine of great riffs and a great way to learn blues phrasing from a master. A few of the riffs are well worn cliche's at this point, but many are surprising and BB's not afraid to go out of the standard pentatonic box at times. The phrasing and dynamics are sweeter than sweet. You could not do ANY better in my opinion than to start with, or add to your repetoire from, this album!!!!
Description of Live at the Regal
Limited Edition import-only vinyl LP repressing of this album. Universal. 2007.Heralded as one of the greatest live blues albums ever recorded, this set catches the singer-guitarist as his star was in ascent: in 1964 playing Chicago's answer to Harlem's Apollo Theater--the Regal. King's performance is visceral. He sings so hard that gravel flies even in his clearest high notes. And his trademark single-note guitar lines are sharp and steely, matching his voice with trembling vigor. He offers early hits like "How Blue Can You Get," "Worry, Worry," and "You Upset Me Baby" to what's essentially his adopted hometown crowd (by his own account, King had already played the theater hundreds of times). They give him a hero's welcome. In fact, the audience's screaming enthusiasm is distracting. But rarely has a love-fest of this magnitude between a performer and fans been documented. --Ted Drozdowski
