24 bit remastered reissued 1968 Stax classic - blistering blues guitar workouts live at the Fillmore
REVIEW
King signed with Stax in 1966 and soon began winning over young white listeners. Six songs wrung out onstage two nights at the Fillmore West in June 196 his first headlining shows for San Franciscan longhairs-pack this album dating from the same year. He paces his attack, building levels and levels of excitement, while his sidemen do their best to hide their unfamiliarity with most of the material. His serrate vocals and homey chats are superfluous. -- © Frank John Hadley 1993 -- From Grove Press Guide to Blues on CD
