[ Not Now Music / 2 LP ]
Release Date: Wednesday 3 September 2014
Pioneering electric bluesman Albert King not only influenced American guitarists like Robert Cray and Stevie Ray Vaughan, with whom he played in later years, but made an indelible mark in Britain. Cream-era Eric Clapton was an early devotee before Albert ever set foot on UK soil, while Gary Moore, who unashamedly took his cues from Clapton, later shared a stage with King in his 'Still Got the Blues' period. This double vinyl set combines debut album 'The Big Blues' from 1962 on its first disc with a collection of early single releases.
