Our Take

B.B. KING's Blue Shadows (Red Vinyl) is a mesmerising journey through the legendary musician's unparalleled bluesy world. From the moment the needle hits the record, you're transported to a smokey dive bar where the sound of King's guitar reigns supreme.

The opening track, "Every Day I Have the Blues," sets the tone for the album with its gritty, soulful vocals and masterful guitar work. It's a classic King track that reminds us all why he's considered one of the greatest blues artists of all time.

As the album progresses, tracks like "Sweet Little Angel" and "How Blue Can You Get" showcase King's versatility as a musician, effortlessly blending traditional blues with elements of jazz and soul. His signature smooth guitar licks are in full force here, proving once again why he's a true master of his craft.

But it's tracks like "The Thrill Is Gone" that really steal the show on Blue Shadows. The hauntingly beautiful melody paired with King's emotive vocals is a true standout moment on the album.

Overall, B.B. KING's Blue Shadows (Red Vinyl) is a must-have for any blues enthusiast. It's a timeless collection of songs that solidify King's status as a musical icon. So grab a glass of whiskey, put on this record, and let B.B. KING's magic sweep you away. Cheers to the king of the blues!
