Known for his smooth vocals and signature Flying V electric guitar, King continuously redefined the state of contemporary blues during his four-decade-long career through hits like “Born Under a Bad Sign,” “Crosscut Saw” and “I’ll Play the Blues for You.” Along the way, his guitar techniques informed axemen like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor and Warren Haynes, to name a few. Recorded during a 1968 concert at San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium and produced by drummer Al Jackson Jr. (of Booker T. & the M.G.’s fame) for release on Stax, Live Wire/Blues Power inspired many of the era’s rising guitar heroes, while it remains a definitive title in King’s catalog. Backed by a small rhythm section of guitar, electric organ, bass and drums, King’s prowess is on display in all of its glory as he blazes through original material (“Blues Power,” “Blues at Sunrise”), plus classic covers, including a spirited rendition of Herbie Hancock’s “Watermelon Man.” “If you never saw Albert King live in his prime, this is as close as you can possibly get,” declares Kassem. “And you’re gonna hear why he is considered one of the all-time best. It doesn’t get any better.” Billington remarks, “Live Wire/Blues Power marked a pivotal moment not only in the guitarist’s career, but in the blues world at large,” adding that it served as “the introduction of the blues to the ‘flower power’ generation.” He continues, “King enthralls the young audience, while laying down his most extended guitar performances on record. His playing is powerful—twisting and turning over jaw-dropping stop-time breaks as he segues from one crescendo to the next.” #albertking #blues #classicblues #vinyl Follow Stax Records: Website: https://staxrecords.com/ Newsletter: https://found.ee/StaxNewsletter YouTube: https://found.ee/staxrecords-youtube-g Instagram: https://found.ee/staxrecords-instagram Facebook: https://found.ee/staxrecords-facebook Twitter: https://found.ee/staxrecords-twitter Follow Bluesville Records: Web: https://www.bluesvillerecords.com Instagram:   / bluesvillerecords   Facebook:   / bluesvillerecordsofficial   Follow Craft Recordings: Website: https://Craftrecordings.com Newsletter: https://found.ee/CraftNewsletter YouTube: https://found.ee/CraftYouTube Facebook: https://found.ee/CraftYouTube Twitter: https://found.ee/CraftTwitter Instagram: https://found.ee/CraftIG Spotify: https://found.ee/CraftSpotify TikTok: https://found.ee/CraftTikTok
