Our Take

Album Review: B.B. KING - Easy Listening Blues

Ah, the melodious sounds of B.B. King. The man, the legend, the guitar virtuoso. His latest album, "Easy Listening Blues," is a toe-tapping, head-bobbing collection of smooth blues tunes that will have you feeling like you're sipping bourbon in a dimly lit jazz club.

From the moment King’s fingers hit the strings on the opening track, "Bluesy Nights," you know you're in for a treat. The soulful vocals, the emotive guitar solos, the tight rhythm section – it's all here, and it's all classic B.B. King.

Standout tracks like "Midnight Train," with its infectious groove and killer horn section, and the heartfelt ballad "Lonely Blues," showcase King's versatility as a musician and storyteller. The album's production is top-notch, with each instrument shining through in all its glory.

But it's not all smooth sailing on "Easy Listening Blues." The occasional cheesy lyric or predictable chord progression can feel a bit cliché at times, but hey, it wouldn't be a blues album without a little heartache and struggle, right?

Overall, "Easy Listening Blues" is a solid addition to B.B. King's legendary discography. So, kick back, pour yourself a drink, and let the King of Blues serenade you with his timeless tunes. Long live the blues!
