Music reviews of Live At The Electric Ballroom

Music Review: "Ain't Nobody's Business" alone makes the whole CD 5 stars!
Rating: 5 Stars

This is a great live blues CD--I call it the 70's counterpart to B.B. King's famously heralded "Live At The Regal" from the 60's. Freddie King sings and plays like a man possessed by a blue devil! The sound quality is pretty good, not great, but good enough to capture the artistry of this short-lived bluesman. The radio studio cuts on acoustic provide a glimpse of another side of Freddie King's guitar talents that are largely unknown--solo acoustic. He modestly claims that he's out of his element playing an acoustic, but he does a great job, of course.

The centerpiece to this great CD is his flooring version of "Ain't Nobody's Business If I Do" (this is one of the live cuts with a full band). Both his vocal and guitar work on this cut are absolutely devastating! The blues doesn't get any better than that!

Highly recommended for adding to your Freddie King collection!

Description of Live At The Electric Ballroom

The Classic Live Album Is Back!

Along with B.B. and Albert, Freddie King was known as one of the "Three Kings of the Blues." And of the three, he?s generally credited with having the greatest impact on rock. Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan and countless others have acknowledged a great debt to his brand of guitar playing and have covered his songs.

As part of its continued restoration of classic Black Top blues albums, Shout! Factory is proud to make the award-winning Live At The Electric Ballroom, 1974 available to blues fans once again. First issued in 1996, the album contains a stellar concert?featuring such classics as "Hideaway," "Dust My Broom," and "Sweet Home Chicago"?recorded two years before his death, along with revealing taped interviews and King?s only known acoustic recordings. Along with his classic early singles, this essential album rounds out the portrait of a hugely talented and influential blues master.
