Our Take

BB King Easy Listening Blues is like a warm cuppa on a rainy day – soothing, comforting, and oh-so-satisfying.

The legendary bluesman delivers once again with his signature smooth guitar licks and soulful vocals, reminding us why he's the undisputed King of the Blues. From the opening track "Everyday I Have the Blues" to the closing notes of "The Thrill Is Gone," BB effortlessly blends traditional blues with a touch of jazz and R&B, creating a sound that's timeless yet fresh.

But don't be fooled by the album title – this ain't your granny's easy listening! BB's gritty lyrics and raw emotion cut right to the heart, making you feel every note deep in your bones. Whether you're nursing a broken heart or celebrating a new love, Easy Listening Blues has got a track for every mood.

Standout moments include the sassy "Sweet Little Angel," the soulful "Caldonia," and the infectious "Rock Me Baby," which will have you grooving in no time. And let's not forget BB's signature Lucille guitar, which sings and wails like a true blues diva throughout the album.

In a world of auto-tuned pop stars and manufactured beats, BB King Easy Listening Blues is a refreshing reminder of the power of real, authentic music. So sit back, relax, and let the King take you on a journey through the blues. You won't be disappointed.
