King of the blues guitar!,
By
This review is from: Blues Guitar Hero: the Influential Early Sessions (Audio CD)
This is a wonderful taster for those just discovering Freddy, which features many of his best known recordings from the 1960s. I don't have my copy of the cd in front of me, but suspect that all tracks were originally released on the Federal label. Those familiar with the John Mayall albums with Clapton, Green and Taylor will be familiar with Hideaway, Stumble and Sidetracked. Also featured is San Ho Zay, which Stan Webb recorded whilst with Chicken Shack. Many others have recorded Freddy's songs, and included amongst those here are Tore Down, C C Baby and Have You Ever Loved A Woman. The cd shows Freddy to be a highly inventive player, who developed a style all of his own, and it is no surprise that he is a major influence on just about every blues and rock guitarist who heard him. This is essential listening for all blues guitar fans, but don't stop here - there is a wealth of other Freddy King material out there to be discovered!

FREDDIE KING: KING OF THE BLUES; FANTASTIC BLUES CD: BLUES MEET ROCK N' ROLL!,
By John - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blues Guitar Hero: the Influential Early Sessions (Audio CD)
For many years I have been collecting music from the beginning and early stages of Rock N' Roll. I have found the exact music where BLUES meet Rock N' Roll on Freddie King's Blues Guitar Hero: The Influential Early Sessions. I can still remember the times when some of these Freddie King BLUES songs were played on Dick Clark's American Bandstand, along with early Rock N' Roll hits. Fourteen of the first fifteen songs on Blues Guitar Hero, volume one, are Freddie King's most famous hits. These fourteen songs are duplicated on two of the other Freddie King cds that I own, Ultimate Collection and Freddy King Sings. These fourteen songs are simply the BEST BLUES MUSIC that I have ever heard! The last eight songs on Blues Guitar Hero, volume one are nearly as outstanding, and gain more credos from me every time I listen to them. There is only one song on Blues Guitar Hero that I have any misgiving about. Blues Guitar Hero, volume one is the most comprehensive collection of Freddie King's best music that I own! Blues Guitar Hero also has outstanding sound quality, perhaps better sound quality than any other Freddie King cd that I own. Blues Guitar Hero very clearly shows us why Freddie King, not B. B. King, is the true King of the Blues. Freddie King is both an outstanding singer and an outstanding guitar player. (B. B. King in his prime was no more than a good singer and a good guitar player.) Freddie King's voice is in its best form on this cd! Blues Guitar Hero, volume one is a FANTASTIC BLUES CD and I most highly recommend it to you! Let me note that there is also a Blues Guitar Hero, volume two, should you simply fall in love with volume one.

Collection of the best performances of Freddie King.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blues Guitar Hero: the Influential Early Sessions (Audio CD)
This is a collection of the best performances of Freddie King. Freddie King shares his last name with B.B. and Albert. Unlike B.B. and Albert, Freddie's blues guitar play is more straight. Freddie's early year performance is purely 'blues'. It has no influence from other genres, while B.B. is influenced from gospel and jazz, Albert from funk. Excellent recording quality, too.

The greatest texas blues CD.,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Blues Guitar Hero: the Influential Early Sessions (Audio CD)
Freddie is one of the kings of the blues together with B.B. and Albert. Freddie has many albums but the people with educated ears must agree that this CD is the finest texas blues CD by master Freddie King. The performances contained in this CD are of Freddie's early years. Later Freddie got bad influences from rock 'n roll and his blues died. This is the only CD in which you can find the real Freddie texas blues. 'click'
