LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

The eighth volume in this highly successful mid-price series based on B.B. King's original Crown LPs with bonus tracks."Singin' The Blues" was the very first Crown LP in 1957, and some say the very best (with a cover to match). It is truly a collection of his greatest early hits.The eight bonus tracks (including four previously unissued) are of the same high quality, and feature impeccable vocal and guitar work from B.B., with accompaniment by the Maxwell Davis Orchestra.2005 is due to be a red letter year for B.B. King. To mark his 80th birthday, his museum will open in Indianapolis, Mississippi and two books are scheduled. With the attendant publicity, B.B.'s Crown series and his "The Vintage Years" Box Set will be continual reminders of how he started out on the road to international acclaim.
