singer-guitarist as his star was in ascent: in 1964 playing Chicago's answer to Harlem's Apollo Theatre--the Regal. King's performance is visceral: he sings so hard that gravel flies even in his clearest high notes. And his trademark single-note guitar lines are sharp and steely, matching his voice with trembling vigour. He offers early hits like "How Blue Can You Get", "Worry, Worry" and "You Upset Me Baby" to what's essentially his adopted hometown crowd (by his own account, King had already played the theatre hundreds of times). They give him a hero's welcome; in fact, the audience's screaming enthusiasm is distracting. But rarely has a love-fest of this magnitude between a performer and fans been documented. --Ted Drozdowski

This is one of the best B.B. King albums I have come across. It was recorded live in the mid sixties at the Regal theatre, Chicago and was rereleased on CD by MCA in 1997. B.B.King is one of the greatest ever blues guitarists and this album provides showcases his instinctive feel for the music. The songs themselves are classic tradiitonal Blues. They are brought to life by the guitar playing, but also by the audience reaction and King's easy rapport with the crowd. In my oppinion there is no better introduction to this sort of music and it would also please hardcore B.B.King fans.
