The music of the three Kings (B.B., Freddie and Albert) has been covered, adapted and plundered so much that we tend to forget how special the originals are. Albert “The Velvet Bulldozer” King had the most pristine sound, very clean and round at the same, with a unique melodic feel. During his forty-year carreer, he explored the possibilities of his upside-down Gibson Flying V (King was left-handed), releasing such blues milestones as Born Under A Bad Sign (67) and Sky Is Crying (69).
