Experience the unmatched mastery of the "King of the Blues." Released by Blues Boulevard in 2012, The Thrill Of The Blues captures the essence of Riley "B.B." King, one of the most influential electric guitarists of the 20th century. This CD collection celebrates King’s sophisticated soloing style—defined by his shimmering vibrato and fluid string bending—that bridged the gap between raw "gutbucket" blues and mainstream success.
This release highlights the evolution of a legend, from his early signature hits like "How Blue Can You Get" to the global crossover success of "The Thrill Is Gone." It showcases King’s unique ability to fuse soulful vocals with the "cries" of his beloved guitar, Lucille, creating a sound that resonated across R&B and pop charts alike.
Key Highlights:
- Genre-Definiting Performance: Features the sophisticated, staccato picking and orchestral fusion that earned King his first Grammy and pop stardom.
- Iconic Tracklist: Includes landmark pieces such as his 1969 signature minor-key masterpiece and high-energy live-style favorites.
